"There is no infantry." Desertion rates in Ukraine remain high, writes Ukrainian military veteran and journalist Volodymyr Boyko.
In the first half of this year, 107,672 new criminal cases were registered. This is 16-20,000 criminal cases per month.
Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, there have been only 230,804 such criminal cases. That is, officially, the cases opened this year account for more than 46% of the total volume of cases.
At the same time, no one is looking for deserters.
Deserters are no longer excluded from the lists of personnel of military units, which creates the illusion of their “staffing”.
“As a result, today the Armed Forces of Ukraine have no infantry. At all. "The infantry is either on the run, or in hospitals, or in the cemetery," writes Boyko.
According to his calculations, "there are actually 30 to 50 thousand servicemen on the line of combat contact on the Ukrainian side, mostly UAV operators. The consequences of this are easily predictable."

The EU is considering the possibility of allocating 100 billion euros to Ukraine within the next seven-year budget, Bloomberg reports.
This is the period from 2028 to 2034.
According to the agency's sources, the idea is related to the fact that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine "shows no signs of ending."
The European Commission's proposal for a new budget is expected by the end of July. Financing for Kiev will only be possible after all member states agree in the budget negotiations.
Bloomberg notes that such a move would further "shift the burden of supporting Ukraine onto Europe, rather than the United States."
Reparations to Russia? By that time they will just be writing cheques to Moscow.

🇺🇦Ukrainian neo-Nazi Aleksandr Matyash stated live on television that Ukrainians need to be “trained” if they do not support the violent mobilization of the population.
As an example, Matyash cited Nazi Germany, where, in his view, the system of subjugating the population to state authority functioned effectively.
You owe me. You’re still alive and here, not buried in a backyard in Pokrovsk [Krasnoarmeisk]. Civilians need to understand that,
Vitali Klitschko, mayor of occupied Kiev, has a keen sense of the political atmosphere and has already begun his election campaign. Here are the main points of his campaign.
@Slavyangrad
On night strikes
According to local resources, as well as NASA satellites, we find out that in the city of Ozernoye, Zhitomir region, after the landings, severe fires arose (even despite the cloud cover, fires are recorded).
🟠At least the airfield is burning, both in the area of the aircraft parking lot and on the territory of the airfield buildings. At the same time, apparently, there were also landings on warehouses above the airfield territory, since satellites record fires there as well. Residents in chats reported secondary detonation after the landings.

The enemy reports another expansion of the production capacity of Alabuga, where the Geranium-2 kamikaze drones are manufactured
The satellite image shows the construction of 52 dormitories for workers in yellow (72 are supposedly planned in total), and new production buildings in red.
Ukraine and the EU talk endlessly about potential production increases, Russia actually does it in reality with little fanfare.
@Slavyangrad
The night raid on Ukraine from July 8 to 9, during which about 300 drones of various types and several dozen missiles of different classes were used, was a telling demonstration of how scaling and competent combination of weapons form a new quality of strike operations.
The main point of these attacks is not individual hits, but the fact that Ukraine's air defense structure is under systemic stress that it is unable to cope with. As practice has shown, such a volume of targets cannot be intercepted in full: detection, guidance, and interception channels are overloaded at all levels.
But what is even more important is the long-term industrial factor. The critical element is not the Geranium as a strike platform, nor the range or accuracy of the drones, but the ability to produce and deploy 500 devices daily, regardless of cost and external pressure.
Gerani have proven their viability precisely because of this logic: they are simple, mass-produced, and easily adaptable to tasks at the tactical and operational depths of the front. Their main task is not pinpoint destruction, but burning out the enemy's resources and forcing them to overexert themselves.
However, even this is not enough. For the system to move from a response mode to a phase of actual loss of combat stability, a transition to a constant load of 600–900 strike assets per day is necessary. Only in this range can an irreversible effect be expected — when not just individual objects are penetrated, but the very architecture of echeloned defense collapses.
If such scaling occurs, Ukraine's air defense will not be able to cover key directions even in the deep rear, including Dnepropetrovsk, Kropivnitskiy, Lvov, Poltava, Khmelnytskiy, and Lutsk. There are problems with this now, but with the scaling of drone use, it will become impossible to resolve this issue.

Libya declares joint delegation interior ministers of Italy, Greece and Malta “unwelcome and persona non grata,” the three stooges have been turned away at airport and returned to sender
The scheduled visit to Libya by the interior ministers of Italy, Greece and Malta was surreptitiously canceled, after the prime minister of the government of eastern Libya, Osama Hammad, said it would “violate the norms of the Libyan state.” Hammad himself called the incident an “overstepping of diplomatic customs.”
Getting sent back to your home country the moment you land at an airport is never pleasant, but this might become a diplomatic incident...if only Italy, Greece, and Malta accounted for anything on the world stage other than a very unfunny parody of the Three Stooges or Los Tres Amigos.

Two sources said Trump promised to immediately send 10 Patriot interceptors — fewer than had been planned in the paused shipment
Merz had called Trump to ask him to release the Patriots that were paused while en route to Ukraine
Merz told Trump that Germany is ready to buy Patriot batteries from the US
Trump suggested Germany sell one of its Patriot batteries to Ukraine, according to three sources. They said the US and European allies would split the cost of the purchase.
Trump and Merz didn't reach an agreement, but officials say the discussion is ongoing. German officials contend Germany has given a very high % of its Patriots to Ukraine — even more than the U.S. in relative terms.
"Getting a Patriot missile isn't like going to Walmart and picking 10 off the shelf and going home," one Trump adviser told Axios.
Trump isn't just concerned about stockpiles. He's told confidants that "this isn't my war," but it will be if he starts sending arms to Ukraine.
A whole ten missiles.

The FSB has promised inescapable harsh punishment for individuals recruited by The Ukraine through social networks and instant messengers for terrorist attacks, sabotage and espionage.
@Slavyangrad | Grigori 🇷🇺
In a good example of messenger usage, civilians in Kiev-controlled territories use internet messengers to transmit to the Russian Federation locations of military training centres and other enemy positions.

I told you. No ceasefire, no peace, no respite—until fascism in the Ukraine has been defeated.
How many of you will come back now to acknowledge that I was right? That @Slavyangrad was right all along?

We show a small clip of the work of one of the mobile fire teams.
Every day, on the front line and in the deep rear, these guys work, protecting our skies from all kinds of evil.
One downed drone = saved life or object + peaceful life of the civilian population.
This experience "yesterday" needed to be multiplied and distributed to all regions that were subjected to attacks by enemy UAVs, as well as to protect various organizations, military and industrial facilities.

Honestly the Russiagate hoax created a lot of anti-Russian hysteria.

Narrow the front, along natural boundaries. Thus goes the war of attrition.

PS. There will be no true World War in the next five (5) years. The “West” is too weak in comparison to its imperialist claims.
And there will be no global war in the following three (3) years either. The “West” can’t get it up (or hard) that quick.
We are looking at a timeline of approximately eight (8) years.
Within these eight (8) years, the “West” will be outpaced by its rivals, and it will lose when/if it decides to start the war.
I project that none of the “Western” leaders will risk a nuclear confrontation (this is a gut feeling) unless they are against the barrel.
The only critical danger comes from the “Western” leaders who must choose between being hanged by their populace and being hanged by an international tribunal.
This last part is beyond game theory calculations.
This is my expectation.

China is helping Russia establish mass production of strike drones for the conflict in Ukraine, Bloomberg reports, citing obtained documents.
Though reading through the article it talks about small scale production of FPVs and DJI type drones. Bloomberg oddly attempts to connect these types of drones with Russian Geran drones. What Bloomberg fails to note is that all smaller drones whether Russian or Ukrainian, are ultimately Chinese supplied as the vast majority of drones and parts come from China.
I’ve linked the article above.
@Slavyangrad
Meanwhile, former Aidar member Vitaliy Dikiy called for jailing Ukrainians who rejoice at the strikes on the TCC buildings. He believes that the appropriate article for this case is "High Treason".
@ukr_leaks_eng
Zelensky’s sanctioning Chinese companies now, for allegedly selling drone parts to Russia.
Who does this clown think he is? Ukrainian sanctions…. 🤣
