1/ Russian warbloggers are bitter and outraged that Serbia is selling ammunition to the EU to provide to Ukraine. One advocates that in response, "as a brotherly gesture, [we could] cut off their fucking gas valve". ⬇️

Serbia is ready to supply ammunition to Europe under long-term contracts, with buyers free to send it to Ukraine, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić told German publication Cicero. Serbia produces more ammunition than France, Vučić stated.

Local channels in occupied Crimea report that a "Pantsir-S1" anti-aircraft missile and gun system was spotted being transported along the "Tavrida" highway from Kerch toward Simferopol. Typically, such systems are moved from Russia to Crimea to replace those that have been damaged or destroyed.

War in Europe continues.

On Day 1351, Russia seems close to capturing another 2 large towns in Donetsk. Why? Because Ukraine's allies have generally been too slow and still only arm them well enough to stay in the war, not to help them end it.

This is the start of Wednesday's daily thread:

🚀⚠️ Yuriy Ignat said Patriot system shoots down ballistic missiles in automatic mode, so it is more difficult for it to accurately calculate the moment of interception of a missile that is maneuvering during flight.

"However, and there are results of shooting down both Iskanders and Kinzhals."

The power station in Oryol, Russia, was under attack last night. What makes this case interesting that it was probably targeted by missiles and not just drones.

🌊 As a result of the dam breach caused by HIMARS MLRS strikes, the water in the Belgorod reservoir began to flow.

The sand quarry, which had a 188-meter gap between its banks at the reservoir outlet, is now at least 10 meters wide and can be crossed on foot.

The Russians are showing how long an FPV "waiter" drone can lie in wait for a target.

In the video, the drone stayed on the road for at least a full day waiting for its target, but when it finally appeared, the drone was unable to take off and exploded just a few meters from the vehicle.

Just sent out this short, free piece. Yesterday's election in the USA might represent a chance for Ukraine supporters. Previously, fear of Trump who wants to work with Putin, has enfeebled Ukraine supporters in Congress. Now Trump is a liability--and that is good. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

The story of the vote in the USA last night is that the Democrats have an amazing opportunity to retake the center ground of US politics and have a strong working majority--while forcing the GOP to the far right. If the Dems do not do this, they have only themselves to blame.
