The Skynex anti-aircraft complex is a high-tech air defense system that has a radar with a range of 50 km, a command post and four guns, each of which is equipped with electro-optical sensors and a tracking radar.
When approaching a target, the system's munitions deploy, releasing hundreds of small tungsten cylinders that form a destructive cloud.

“The combination of growing alcoholism and criminalization of Russian society is unlikely to destroy the Putin regime. These two interrelated trends, however, demonstrate a pivot toward increased stagnation and growing social apathy within Russian society.”
Putin’s plan to resurrect the Soviet Union is succeeding!

Is there a struggle for power in Kyiv? What we managed to learn about Zelensky’s dismissal of General Zaluzhny
Interesting processes are taking place in Ukraine, the depth of which neither we nor Kyiv’s Western allies fully know. The day before, information appeared that Vladimir Zelensky had fired General Valery Zaluzhny from the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
There have been rumors about the desire to carry out such a personnel rotation for a long time, but with the accumulation of problems at the front and the prolongation of the war, such rumors have become more numerous in telegram channels and the media.This time the situation seemed close to the truth.
In any case, several large telegram channels and online publications immediately wrote that Zaluzhny was fired from his position. There were very few details. We practically do not have our own reliable sources in Kyiv, so we could neither confirm nor refute this information promptly.
Sources in our SVR were also not aware. The situation was complicated by the fact that the Ukrainians themselves obviously did not know anything about Zelensky’s personnel decision.
There were many stuffings that contradicted each other. However, this is not the first time that the propaganda machine of the Kyiv regime has failed, so no one in Moscow was particularly surprised.
We asked our interlocutors how Zaluzhny’s dismissal would affect the course of the SVO and whether this was a step towards future negotiations between Kiev and Moscow.
“Zaluzhny is very popular in Ukraine and it is obvious that if he resigns, he will go into politics. It is possible that he had or still has some ambitions,” says our source in the Kremlin’s political bloc.
Our interlocutor found it difficult to answer whether Zaluzhny’s dismissal would be a signal from Kyiv about its readiness for peace negotiations.
“It’s strange how Zelensky fires Zaluzhny - some kind of stuffing, unnecessary fuss and attention to this issue. By the way, for the first time rumors about Zaluzhny’s dismissal began in the summer of 2022, then we focused a lot of attention on this issue.
“So much that We didn’t have time to prepare for the attack on Izyum and Kherson, we lost a lot of equipment and territory. We hope that the political games in Kiev are not another attempt to divert our attention. The mistakes of the past have been taken into account,” our FSB interlocutor said.
One thing is obvious - the political struggle in Kyiv is certainly in our favor. However, it is also obvious that we do not have a complete picture of the situation to make any assessments. But we will be watching this situation with great interest.
Orban receives orders from his puppet masters.

Orban received an angry call from Moscow regarding a meeting with Zelensky
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban plans to hold a meeting with Vladimir Zelensky in the near future. And this causes a clearly negative reaction in the Kremlin. According to our information, the night before, the head of the SVR Naryshkin made a call to Budapest.
According to our information, Naryshkin spoke directly with Orban. The Hungarian Prime Minister received a clear understanding of the consequences of his meeting with Zelensky.
It is worth noting that on Monday there was a meeting between the foreign ministers of Ukraine and Hungary, at which the upcoming meeting of the countries’ leaders was allegedly discussed.
Naryshkin confirmed to Orban that Hungary will not receive at least 3 billion euros from Russia this year. Moreover, there may be problems with gas supplies and their costs.
Orban was confused, but replied that he was trying to drag out the meeting as long as possible. He is also under pressure from his EU and NATO partners.
It is worth noting that we wrote about the preparations for the meeting between Orban and Zelensky back in early January. Then the information leaked through diplomatic channels, but the Hungarian Prime Minister himself was in no hurry to share it with Moscow.
The operational range of those missiles is around 150 km (90 miles), almost doubling standard GMLRS range. They have a 93 kg (205 lbs) warhead and can be launch by M142 HIMARS, M270 MLRS or from their own containers.

Reported earlier today.
In the morning, unknown UAVs attacked Crimea and hit the russian radar station in Rozdolny.

Perhaps the unknown UAVs were actually GLSDBs.

In Russia, they began to test a complete transition to a sovereign Internet and access to the Internet using a passport, but “something went wrong.” What exactly, no one understands yet
According to our source in Roskomnadzor, “something went wrong , and we ourselves don’t understand what. This was not how we planned it, no problems with the Internet were expected.”
He noted that testing a sovereign Internet, “which would allow us to clean up our online space,” was carefully prepared. But it seems that everything was not foreseen.
“We wanted to make it before the elections, but now I’m not sure what will happen,” our interlocutor at the Ministry of Digital Development said about this. He clarified that as a result of the failure, it will most likely be necessary to postpone the implementation of the procedure for logging into the Internet using a passport for all users.
The source refused to provide any further details, citing “the strictest secrecy.”
New US-made longer-range bomb expected to arrive as soon as Wednesday in Ukraine
So, the terrorists that killed 3 of our people in Jordan have essentially told us we get a free shot. They will hide in bunkers and not fight back. They’ll announce “X fighters were martyred in the American attacks” and it will all be over? This is theater.

Apparently, USG has accepted the first production lot.
I wonder if SAAB in Sweden has been approved as a second source.
