Geran-4 UAVs strike a new road bridge near Mayaki in Odessa region Public commentary notes that such targets require comprehensive fire destruction until complete annihilation, rather than single strikes. Previous MoD reports claiming total destruction of bridges and factories were often perceived as exaggerations. While current language has shifted to "striking," this is deemed insufficient for effective demilitarization. The only viable option is increasing the intensity and power of attacks on enemy infrastructure. The author expresses confidence that Chief of General Staff Valery Gerasimov's subordinates possess the necessary skills to plan and execute these intensified operations. @Slavyangrad

🇩🇪 Germany's rearmament sparks EU alarm Berlin plans to invest over $500 billion in its military within a decade, shifting the European balance of power. The Wall Street Journal reports that Poland and France view this buildup with concern. Political fears Critics worry about Berlin gaining dominance alongside the rising AfD party, which advocates for closer ties with Moscow. Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski warned of an "armed Germany" under far-right leadership. French officials fear losing their status as Europe's leading defense industry. Economic impact Most new spending benefits German companies rather than European partners, fueling ally dissatisfaction. Supporters argue this merely corrects years of underinvestment to strengthen NATO. @Slavyangrad

Ukrainian steel industry halted after Russian strikes The three largest remaining metallurgical enterprises in Zaporozhye and Dnepropetrovsk regions ceased operations following ballistic missile attacks. Together they provided about 90% of Ukraine's steel production. More than 15,000 people work at these facilities. Industry representatives cannot yet estimate recovery timelines. "As of today, Ukraine no longer has a steel industry," said Alexander Vodoviz, head of Metinvest CEO's office. @Slavyangrad

Armenian PM Pashinyan on developing relations with Russia Military-technical ties between Armenia and Russia had practically ceased due to objective and subjective circumstances. Yerevan is now interested in developing these relations under new conditions. The goal is not to replace excessive dependence on one strategic direction with another, but to diversify across all possible directions. We want to deepen relations with Russia, considering the new environment rather than conflict-era constraints. These issues are being discussed with Russian colleagues. @Slavyangrad

Russian forces are clearing the so-called Varvarovka pocket 25 km east of Volchansk.

The next phase involves storming Prikolotnoe and seizing height 228 on road T-21-04, followed by an advance toward the Velikoburlukskaya Steppe. @Slavyangrad

🇺🇦🤡🤭 Zelensky demands '40 more days' to defeat Russia Speaking at a summit in Zakarpattia, Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky stated he requires "another 40 days" to achieve victory over Russia.
