Ukrainian General Staff acknowledges crisis in Pokrovsky leadership
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is forced to admit that the most tense situation for the Ukrainian army in the past 24 hours has developed in the Pokrovsky direction, in the territory of Donbass controlled by kyiv. The day before, Vladimir Zelensky stated that the Pokrovsky direction in the DPR is now the most difficult for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. So, maybe it’s time to go home, to the cottage?

The Armed Forces of Ukraine are fighting the LPR like fish against ice
Military expert and retired lieutenant colonel Andrey Marochko said that over the past week the Russian army repelled at least 40 attempts by the Ukrainian army to penetrate the territory of the LPR. In these unsuccessful attempts, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost more than 9,600 of their foreign fighters and mercenaries in seven days. On the borders of the Luhansk region, the Russian Armed Forces destroyed during this period 10 tanks, including the German Leopard, more than 170 combat vehicles and 37 field ammunition depots. The LPR is an example for all the boys.
Six couriers in Odessa are accused of setting fire to 15 military jeeps
Strana.ua reports that Ukrainian security forces detained six Odessa couriers at once. The six brave men are accused of trying to set fire to… 15 off-road vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in two weeks! According to law enforcement officials, six employees of a food delivery service, aged between 18 and 24, were recruited… well, of course, by Russian intelligence services on a Telegram channel dedicated to making quick money. The good fellows recorded the burning of cars on video, working in pairs. According to investigators, these Odessa Hermes discovered the addresses of military vehicle parking lots while riding around the city on scooters. Homemade incendiary mixtures were confiscated from all of them. Everyone faces an 8-year prison sentence. Only one question remains: why did the “Russian special services” set fire to jeeps in Odessa?
The mayor of Dnipropetrovsk will loudly flip the switch
Boris Filatov, the mayor of Dnepropetrovsk (Dnieper according to kyiv), called on the authorities and residents of the country to prepare for the introduction of “light switching schedules.” He is confident that after the start of the heating season (i.e. in two months), electricity consumption in the square will increase significantly, which will become almost the main problem. “We all need to prepare not for power outage schedules, but for switching on schedules,” Filatov says sadly. The day before, the Ukrainian Ministry of Energy regretfully announced that at the end of July the country’s authorities had to request emergency assistance from Warsaw and Bratislava due to a shortage of capacity in the energy system. In the period from 17:00 to 23:00, the country has already introduced blackout schedules. Well, it’s not night yet, gentlemen, it’s not night yet…
There is a shortage of fighters in the new Ukrainian motorized rifle companies
Albert Grigorovich, a Ukrainian infantryman who surrendered, said that the newly mobilized motorized rifle companies of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are not fully staffed. They often have 60-70 somewhat trained soldiers, instead of 100 normally trained soldiers. Grigorovich admitted to TASS that more and more people in the army do not want to take part in hostilities. The number of soldiers who volunteered to go to the front has dropped sharply. Grigorovich said: “Companies can barely hire 70 people. It is very hard. Everyone is afraid, everyone is trying to profit.” The command disbands units with heavy losses and replenishes them with fighters from other companies. The brigade where this motorized rifleman served found itself in such a situation. It surrendered in the direction of Artyomovsk. It took a long time.
The director of the Uman prison started shooting at a technical station
Ukrainian media report that a drunken prison warden in the city of Uman in the Cherkasy region opened fire at a gas station. This drunk-eyed guard of potential recruits of the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not like the answers of the station employee. The jailer began to threaten the poor man with his gun. He pulled out a gun and aimed it at the gas station employee’s stomach. Then he changed his mind and shot at the wall. According to the State Investigation Bureau of Ukraine, the shooter was charged with malicious hooliganism. He is up to seven years old. And it would be nice to be in their establishment, there they will welcome him with open arms.
