I hate constantly ringing this bell but this was the decision made by the 2024 election. Voters who pretended that human rights and international accountability were their number one voting issue helped usher in a renewed/embolded age of American betrayal of our international commitments.

From Ukrainian soldier officer_33 Russia is concentrating its forces on assaulting Dobropillia, seeking to capture it before worsening weather limits offensive operations. Hundreds of enemy infantry are reportedly detected, wounded, or killed daily, making this the hardest sector of the front.
The enemy is throwing all its forces into the assault on Dobropillia, trying to catch the last train of opportunity to capture the city, since in a few months the weather will become highly unfavorable for active offensive operations.

Every day, hundreds of enemy infantry are detected, wounded, and killed, with hundreds in each of these categories…

The situation along the entire front line is most difficult precisely here.

Ukrainian soldier officer_33 talks a little bit about the development of cheap interceptor drones that will be effective against jet-powered Shaheds. He says in 2 months, they will be abundant, and that it is a shame the threat of jet shaheds wasn't taken more seriously sooner.
The story of jet-powered interceptors will only continue to scale up within the Ukrainian Defense Forces, and the number of manufacturers taking on this project is growing more and more every day. So in roughly two months, Shaheds being shot down by low-cost interceptor drones will no longer be something new or unrealistic. The market will gradually become saturated with these systems, and with a fairly wide variety of them.

It’s just a shame they started thinking about this too late, because no one believed the enemy would be able to scale this weapon to the numbers we see today
