“Russian troops will start to dig in in 4-6 weeks”, – Ukraine’s top general

Russia’s push will run out of gas soon making its troops shift to a defensive posture, said Ukraine’s National Guard commander Oleksandr Pivnenko.
He admitted the frontline situation is challenging, but the enemy’s mounting losses will factor in and affect their offensive capabilities.
‘I believe that in 4-6 weeks they will no longer be able to conduct active assaults on multiple fronts and will inevitably adopt a defensive stance,’ said Pivnenko, arguing it can give Ukraine’s troops enough time to redeploy.
‘During this time, we need to organize our units and prepare for the shift.’
The military chief said Ukrainian troops will need to look for ways to adopt, which is not an easy task.
“You can’t change everything overnight; systemic changes require time,’ he added.
Pivnenko remains confident Ukraine will get the job done. ‘We need to advance continuously and keep thinking about the future. The most crucial aspects right now are preparation, enhancing training centers, acquiring weaponry, military equipment, and producing our own military technology, including drones, armored vehicles, and air defense systems,’ he concluded.”
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
