Attack On Europe: Documenting Russian Equipment Losses During The 2022 Russian Invasion Of Ukraine (2 year anniversary)
ORYX ^ | Since February 24, 2022 and daily | ORYX

Posted on 02/24/2024 5:59:01 AM PST by SpeedyInTexas

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

U.S. Disbands Task Forces on Russian Sanctions, Foreign Influence

The U.S. Justice Department disbanded two key task forces focused on enforcing sanctions against Russian oligarchs and investigating foreign influence, Reuters reported Thursday, citing a memo that newly appointed Attorney General Pam Bondi sent to staff.

The memo, issued on Wednesday, said the department would shut down Task Force KleptoCapture, which was created under the Biden administration in response to Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Bondi also ordered the closure of the Foreign Influence Task Force, which investigated violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).

“This policy requires a fundamental change in mindset and approach,” Bondi wrote in the memo, adding that resources would now be redirected toward fighting drug cartels.

Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, February 7, 2025

The Kremlin continues to conduct an information campaign likely directed toward both domestic and international audiences that aims to conceal the extent to which Russia's protracted war against Ukraine has negatively affected Russia's economy. Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin met on February 7 with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss the state of the Russian economy.[9] Mishustin claimed that Russia's gross domestic product (GDP) rose in 2024 by 4.1 percent largely due to “intensive” growth in Russia's manufacturing industry – likely referring to Russia's boost of its defense industrial base (DIB) since the start of its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Mishustin claimed that the main contributors to the growth in Russia's manufacturing sector were the machine-building, transport engineering, automotive, and computer and electronic equipment sectors.

Mishustin claimed that inflation in Russia reached 9.52 percent in 2024, and Putin claimed that inflation was already 9.9 percent as of February 3, 2025. Russia's true inflation is quite higher than the official statistics the Kremlin is willing to publicize, however. (Several studies indicate that Russia's inflation rate is closer to 20 percent.[10]) Mishustin highlighted Russia's low 2024 unemployment rate of 2.5 percent but only briefly acknowledged Russia's significant labor shortages, which are the reason for Russia's low unemployment.

Mishustin noted that Russian economic growth might be less significant in 2025 as it is very important to stop inflation and ensure long-term economic growth – likely a signal to prepare the Russian population to expect economic hardships in 2025. Mishustin and Putin also attempted to posture Russia's economy as stable in the face of international economic pressure. Mishustin claimed that Russia's fuel and energy complex is adapting and finding new markets.

Mishustin claimed that Russia's economy has “successfully managed” with “unprecedented sanctions pressure” in recent years and that anti-Russian sanctions are hurting the states that imposed the sanctions more than the sanctions are hurting Russia. Putin similarly attempted to posture Russia's economy as stronger and growing more rapidly than economies in the West. Mishustin and Putin notably did not mention how the Russian Central Bank raised the interest rate to 21 percent in October 2024 or how Russia has been drawing from its National Welfare Fund to finance its war effort over the last three years.[11] The liquidity portion of Russia's National Welfare fund may run out by Fall 2025.[12]

Azerbaijan-Russia relations continue to sour following Russia's refusal to take full responsibility for the December 25, 2024 downing of an Azerbaijani Airlines (AZAL) passenger plane, likely shot mid-air by Russian air defense before crashing in Aktau, Kazakhstan. Azerbaijani outlet APA News, citing sources familiar with the matter, reported on February 5 that Azerbaijan is preparing to take legal action against Russia in an international court, citing recent clear evidence identifying unspecified Russian actors responsible for the crash and Russia's failure to take responsibility for the crash.[21] Azerbaijan's intent to sue follows the Azerbaijani Ministry of Digital Development and Transport's February 4 briefing of the initial investigation results attributing the AZAL crash to unspecified “foreign objects.”[22]

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev previously accused Russia of attempting to cover up the incident, calling the Kremlin's response “surprising, regrettable, and infuriating.”[23] Russian President Vladimir Putin apologized to Aliyev on December 28 that the crash occurred in Russian airspace but stopped short of admitting Russia's fault in the crash and taking action against those responsible – demands Aliyev set forth following the crash.[24] Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov announced on February 7 that Russian President Vladimir Putin does not intend to make another statement regarding the AZAL plane crash.[25]

Azerbaijani outlet Report.az noted on February 6 that Azerbaijani officials have also formally notified the Kremlin of the closure of the local branch of the Russian Federal Agency for the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Compatriots Living Abroad, and International Humanitarian Cooperation (Rossotrudnichestvo), a Russian cultural diplomacy agency, citing national security concerns and a move away from “external interference.”[26] Russia currently has over 80 Rossotrudnichestvo branches concentrated in Europe, Africa, Latin America, and Central and Southeast Asia aimed at promoting Russian culture, strengthening the influence of the Russian language, supporting “compatriots abroad,” and preserving historical sites abroad with significance to Russia.[27] Moldovan and Ukrainian officials have previously warned that Russian officials use the branches to promote Russian propaganda and conduct “subversive work” abroad.[28]

Russia's labor shortage continues to hinder ongoing efforts to expand its defense industrial production. Ukraine's First Deputy Defense Minister Lieutenant General Ivan Havrylyuk told Ukrainian outlet Ukriform on February 7 that Russia has over 1,300 defense industrial facilities with roughly two million employees, but that Russia continues to lack hundreds of thousands of workers.[ My comment: Lost in the war?][83] Havrylyuk stated that Russia's efforts to significantly increase weapons production have exacerbated Russia's labor shortage, but that Russia has increased its production of some weapons three- to six-fold since the full-scale invasion began in February 2022 despite this. Havrylyuk noted that Russia is still not able to produce enough weapons to meet the military's needs in Ukraine and is thus relying on Iran and North Korea to supply additional weapons. About 60 percent of Russia's shells fired against Ukraine reportedly are sourced from North Korea as of December 2024, for example.[84] Havrylyuk noted that Russia is working to increase and diversify its domestic drone production.

🍈 Russian mir

The government corruption that is coming to light is breathtaking. Even the most hardened cynic is pausing to catch his breath, but not people like you. Your strategy is to plow ahead with the same LOW IQ program; calling war opponents "Russian" followed with a childish gif that only you and Mother PIF appreciate. Exactly how stupid were you to trust Biden's Ukraine foreign policy? Didn't he supply a political lifetime of mistakes for you to judge him? At any rate, today's a new day and you can expect new insults to be uncovered. So soak it all up blitz and remember, people like you encouraged all these thieves posing as politicians.

USAID: Biden threatened to withhold a $1 billion USAID loan guarantee unless Ukraine fired the prosecutor investigating his son's company. Victoria Nuland funded the Ukrainian coup with USAID money. USAID is at the heart of the war between Ukraine and Russia.

Russia is encountering significant challenges in transporting oil due to US sanctions. 265 tankers are affected, with 112 under US sanctions. The cost of transporting oil to Asia has surged by 50%, placing Russia in a difficult position.

Everything you have read and posted has been a product of propaganda, much of it anti-Russian propaganda. As I have said since the start, our corrupt government has done more damage to the American taxpayers than anything Moscow has put forward

USAID has pushed nearly half a billion dollars ($472.6m) through a secretive US government financed NGO, "Internews Network" (IN), which has “worked with” 4,291 media outlets, producing in one year 4,799 hours of broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and "training” over…— WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) February 8, 2025

USAID has pushed nearly half a billion dollars ($472.6m) through a secretive US government financed NGO, "Internews Network" (IN), which has “worked with” 4,291 media outlets, producing in one year 4,799 hours of broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and "training” over 9000 journalists (2023 figures). IN has also supported social media censorship initiatives.

The operation claims “offices” in over 30 countries, including main offices in US, London, Paris and regional HQs in Kiev, Bangkok and Nairobi. It is headed up by Jeanne Bourgault, who pays herself $451k a year. Bourgault worked out of the US embassy in Moscow during the early 1990s, where she was in charge of a $250m budget, and in other revolts or conflicts at critical times, before formally rotating out of six years at USAID to IN.

Bourgault’s IN bio and those of its other key people and board members have been recently scrubbed from its website but remain accessible at http://archive.org. Records show the board being co-chaired by Democrat securocrat Richard J. Kessler and Simone Otus Coxe, wife of NVIDIA billionaire Trench Coxe, both major Democratic donors. In 2023, supported by Hillary Clinton, Bourgault launched a $10m IN fund at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI). The IN page showing a picture of Bourgault at the CGI has also been deleted.

IN has at least six captive subsidiaries under unrelated names including one based out of the Cayman Islands. Since 2008, when electronic records begin, more than 95% of IN's budget has been supplied by the US government (thread follows)

Fake quote: " 'NATO must win or we will lose!' - General Billingsworth"

I can't find a source for this alleged quote, or even confirm that "Gen. Billingsworth" is a real person.

"Nato allies discussed sending troops to Greenland after Trump threats"

Contingency plans -- the Pentagon has thousands of contingency plans covering every imaginable scenario and many that are unimaginable.

Pres. Trump has not threatened military action in Greenland.
What he is doing is getting the Euros to take their national self defenses seriously.

If the Euros have troops to defend a none-existent threat to Greenland, then they should have plenty of troops to help defend against real threats from Russia.

Yup USAID along with dept of education, EPA, dept of defense, congress, cia, fbi…. are full of waste, fraud, and abuse and I am over the moon that Trump and Elon are taking out the trash.

General 🍈 I never post gifs, beyond that the fact that xiden and his administration was corrupt does not change the fact that dear leader invaded another country for his own ego and desires.

I have been clear to the extent that xiden sent aid to Ukraine, I did support that, but with a huge caveat. It was too small, took too long, and had too many restrictions.

Trump is taking care of the fraud, restrictions, and amping up sanctions on Russia. And military aid is still flowing, I am sure your fellow workers in St. Petersburg are deeply saddened
