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.

Summarizing this war:
A tragedy for Ukraine.
A disaster for RuZZia.
A strategic win for the USA.

“Here is the best-kept secret about U.S. military aid to Ukraine: Most of the money is being spent here in the United States. That’s right: Funds that lawmakers approve to arm Ukraine are not going directly to Ukraine but being used stateside to build new weapons or to replace weapons sent to replace weapons sent to Kyiv from U.S. stockpiles. Of the $68 billion in military and related assistance Congress has approved since Russia invaded Ukraine, almost 90 percent is going to Americans, one analysis found.”

Agreement this week?
I’ve said its going to happen and confident it will. Why? Because a majority in both houses support military aid to Ukraine.
“Republicans’ top negotiator on a potential border and immigration deal that could unlock tens of billions in aid for Ukraine said that lawmakers could release the text of an agreement as soon as this week.”

“Short on Shells, Ukraine Relies on Explosive Drones to Hold Russia Back”
“The drones are more accurate than artillery, but far less powerful. They are helping Ukraine to fend off Russia’s forces, at least for now”
“A VILLAGE NEAR ORIKHIV, Ukraine—From a bunker on the southeastern front, it’s easy to hear how Ukraine’s supply of artillery ammunition has dwindled. For every five or six incoming Russian shells, the Ukrainians fire back once or twice.
As the war approaches its third year, Russia is on the offensive, backed by an economy on a war footing. Ukraine, meanwhile, is short on ammunition as additional aid from its main backer, the U.S., remains blocked in Congress.
With artillery shells running low, Ukrainian troops on the front lines are improvising and using explosive drones to try to hold the Russians back.
“We’re increasingly using FPV drones because we have a lack of shells,” said Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine’s minister of digital transformation. But, he added, “drones can’t replace artillery completely.”
Ukraine’s growing reliance on FPV, or first-person-view, drones offers a preview of what the war might look like if the flow of Western weapons to Kyiv were severely curtailed.”

I mentioned to you guys a year ago that the cheapest way for ukraine to wage this war is with drones.
Zelinsky promised a million of them. But I’ve not heard any raw numbers as to how many are getting to the front. Only that — as of now, the rus are putting more of the drones on the front lines. (I don’t know what their quality is.)
Bavovna 🔥🔥🔥💨🤌
A fire occurred in one of the “professor’s” houses in the Timiryazevsky district of Moscow. The fire started at night on the third floor at 15 Krasnostudenchesky Proezd. Then the flames spread to the upper apartments of the five-story building. Dozens of fire engines extinguished the flames for more than three hours. By three o'clock in the morning the fire was extinguished. Traditionally no one was injured. According to residents, the house had old ceilings: major renovations have been going on there for four years now. Smoke and an acrid smell remained near the building until the morning. After watering by the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the facade at -20 degrees turned into an ice castle. 🥶❄️🙂 The cause of the fire of course is still unknown.

Last week, including the weekend, Secretary of the Russian Security Council Nikolai Patrushev discussed with people from his circle the innovations that the Russian authorities are going to introduce in the near future.
Thus, proposals to introduce Deepfake technologies into the speeches of several State Duma deputies were discussed.
Patrushev and many representatives of the Russian leadership are bothered by the idiotic statements made to the press by some deputies, but since these people are quite popular and their opinions are a guideline for some part of the population, it is not advisable to completely remove these characters from the air.
Experts in artificial intelligence and Deepfake technologies, who are directly related to the Security Council of the Russian Federation, have proposed an original solution to this problem.
In the near future, political shows may appear on Russian television, in which digital avatars of State Duma deputies will participate, at least those who act as military experts (these are considered complete and impenetrable idiots).
The texts will be written and agreed upon in advance, and allegedly identifying a digital copy from the original on a monitor screen will not be easy.
Nikolai Patrushev, after short consultations, gave the order to begin implementing this program, since, according to him, he was tired of asking the rhetorical question: “Do we have no one else besides these idiots?”
Disabling YouTube and several instant messengers is again on the agenda and has also been actively discussed in the last few days. Nikolai Patrushev was informed that in February everything would be ready for a trial shutdown, and if everything went smoothly, then starting from the beginning of March it would be possible to implement the shutdown on a permanent basis.
During the consultations, the Secretary of the Security Council was recommended not to disable YouTube until the upcoming presidential elections, and he agreed with this position.
Some results of the first “innovations” were also discussed. As part of the fight against the “demographic catastrophe”, they decided not to persist in the issue of banning abortion, but to take a different, but no less radical, path.
Thus, at the end of last year, several hundred thousand counterfeit contraceptives (pills) containing no active substance were produced under the brand names of several of the most popular manufacturers. Since the new year, these contraceptive “pacifiers” have already been sold in many Russian pharmacies.
It is believed that using these ineffective drugs, more than ten thousand Russian women may become pregnant in the near future. The current Russian leadership is solving problems by “skimping or skimming.”

In the LPR, an aerial bomb fell on the city. Unfortunately, such emergencies are happening more and more often.
The head of the LPR, Leonid Pasechnik, announced today that during combat missions, a FAB-250 aircraft munition accidentally fell on the city of Rubezhnoye.
The emergency occurred during an attack by a Russian Aerospace Forces aircraft. There are no official reports of deaths, but we are still checking this information. But in this situation something else is scary.
To our great regret, there are more and more similar cases when rockets and bombs “unprompted” fall on peaceful Russian cities. Just the other day, an emergency occurred in the Voronezh region, where a missile fired in the direction of Ukraine “landed.” 14 people died, including children. All of them are victims of war in one way or another.
Last year, if you remember, an aerial bomb fell on Belgorod. In October 2022, in Yeisk, a Su-34 fighter crashed into a residential building. And, unfortunately, there are many such cases. All of them take place far from the combat zone.
Thanks also to our efforts and our colleagues who are not afraid to tell the truth, the authorities are unable to hide such incidents.
We would like to see fewer emergencies like this. All of them clearly show the state in which our army is. More precisely, where Shoigu brought her. It certainly could have been worse. But the army is supposed to protect, not kill.
