RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: Fedorov deserves enormous credit for turning Ukraine’s fortunes around with automation: deep strikes on Russia’s energy infrastructure, middle strikes to isolate Crimea and removing more Russian soldiers than Moscow can replace per month. He also personally appealed to Elon Musk to get SpaceX to deny the Russians access to Starlink, a decision that had an immediate impact on the battlefield. Sacking Fedorov would be a disaster in itself, but it’d also be seen as a regressive move among Ukraine allies in the Trump administration, of which there are precious few.

With refineries burning, fuel shortages growing, and key shipping routes disrupted, the pressure on the Kremlin is mounting. And when backed into a corner, Putin has historically escalated rather than compromised. Imagine a scenario where Russia picked a fight with a smaller NATO member, like Latvia or Lithuania. It would likely start with deniable incursions, border incidents, cyberattacks, or the seizure of small pieces of territory, just enough to leave

RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: The era of rapid tank maneuvers is officially over. 🪦🛡️ An analysis by Die Zeit reveals that drone saturation has expanded the front’s contested “death zone” to a staggering 40 km deep, paralyzing traditional ground tactics. The battlefield is now defined by: Total Transparency: At least 10 reconnaissance & attack drones operate over every single square kilometer. Movement is suicide. The €500 vs. €20M Equation: A mass-produced €500 FPV kamikaze drone routinely demolishes a €20M air defense system or main battle tank.
