01 🇷🇺🪖 Well, our information about Yuri Kuznetsov, the current head of the Main Directorate of Personnel of the Russian Ministry of Defense and the former head of the 8th Directorate of the General Staff, turned out to be true: he was indeed detained for affairs during his time as the head of the state secret protection service.
A fair question arises, what kind of commercial structures gave such a large bribe. Equipment supply? Providing information security? Or something else related to the preservation of confidential information?
The scope for imagination is simply colossal (especially considering the fact that Kuznetsov is a person who has always been very cautious). Perhaps the investigation will clarify what it's all about.

02 🇷🇺🪖 According to the Deputy Defense Minister Shevtsova, who is currently responsible for the economy of the war, we cannot confirm the information about her submitting a resignation request.
It's understandable that resignation requests are a very popular topic right now. So there will be a lot of such reports about everyone and anyone. At the moment, none of the Deputy Defense Ministers are packing their bags or planning to leave their offices (even if resignation requests were indeed submitted).
We explained the reasons for this yesterday: the starting point for such reshuffles will be the first Board of the Russian Ministry of Defense, whose meeting will take place tomorrow, as well as the process of handing over duties and positions.
In the near future, Shevtsova's dismissal, against whom many have complaints, is not believed to be likely: in the midst of the offensive and attempts to regain strategic initiative, the working (albeit somehow) system of financial support for the Russian Armed Forces is unlikely to be shaken at the start.

03 🇷🇺🪖 There is one day left until the meeting of the Board of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, where the public appearance of the new Minister of Defense will take place. The defense department is awaiting Andrey Belousov, because the thirst for change has matured.
But in fairness, the same way they were waiting for Sergey Shoigu in 2012.
It is difficult to say whether there will be more purges and high-profile arrests. There is an opinion that they may indeed go down this path in order to ensure the most spectacular change in the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense: especially since many heads of military administration bodies have skeletons in their closet.
And this will also, of course, affect the morale of the personnel at the front: the news of the arrest of Timur Ivanov, the change of the Minister of Defense and the detention of Yuri Kuznetsov were met with great enthusiasm.
📌 Many are speculating about the real role of Andrey Belousov. But here it was rightly noted that economic optimization should not be expected: the task of the new Minister of Defense is to properly justify new spending and stop the arbitrariness of the "state within a state" in the form of the Russian Ministry of Defense, integrating and synchronizing it with other elements of the Russian military economy.
In the West, they are already pointing fingers in the sky and saying that in this way Russia is preparing for war with NATO. Well, let's be frank: fine-tuning the military economy is a preparation for a major war. So there is nothing to hide here.

04 🇷🇺🇺🇦 Chronicles of the special military operation
for May 13, 2024
Over the past day, Russian forces struck several targets in the front-line and rear areas on the territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. In turn, the AFU struck the ATACMS MLRS on Krasnodoн in the LPR, and continue to strike civilian infrastructure in the border areas of Belgorod and Kursk Regions.
In the Slobozhansky direction, Russian forces are advancing in several sectors and fighting in the industrial zone of Volchansk, as well as in the multi-story buildings on the eastern outskirts of the city. In the area of Hlyboke, heavy fighting continues on the approaches to Lyptsi.
In the Bakhmut direction, Russian Armed Forces units are storming enemy positions in the Canal neighborhood in Chasiv Yar, and also striking positions in the city and its environs.
In the Avdiivka direction, there are battles in the forest belts along the railway to the west of Ocheretyne, as well as on the approaches to Novoaleksandrivka and Kalynove.
In the Kherson direction, there are ongoing clashes in the island zone north of Kozachi Lahery and in Krynky. Russian forces struck a UAV crew and several dozen drones north of Mylove on the right bank of the Dnipro.

05 🇮🇱🇵🇸 Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone
Chronicle of events for May 13, 2024
In the north of the Gaza Strip, the IDF is conducting local operations in several areas. The main clashes are taking place in Jabalia, where infantry is operating with the support of armored vehicles.
In the south of the enclave, in the vicinity of Rafah, there are no new advances by the Israelis. IDF units are conducting engineering work, combing the occupied territory, and carrying out demolitions of various infrastructure.
On the border with Lebanon, the situation has not undergone major changes, with an exchange of strikes continuing between the IDF and Hezbollah. In northern Israel, air raid sirens sounded several times during the day.
The situation in the West Bank is also stable - the region is routinely seeing raids by Israeli security forces and arrests of suspects with ties to Palestinian groups.

06 ⚡️🇷🇺🪖 Testing of the Russian uncrewed surface vessel
Well, now we can officially say: the "People's USV" project has undergone testing.
Our comrades from the channel Beyond the Fogs @BeyondTheFogs published the first footage of testing the working version of their own naval drone. The project received support from the previous Minister of Defense, and assembly is being carried out at one of the workshops in the Tula Region with the direct support of the local government.
▪️Declared range: up to 250 km in the basic load (but you can easily install larger fuel tanks)
▪️Explosive payload: 250 kg (in the footage), with plans to increase it to 350 kg TNT equivalent in the future.
▪️Equipped with modern satellite modules and an inertial navigation system with compass deviation.
The team of the channel Beyond the Fogs has come a long way, persistently knocking on the doors of various ministries, agencies and factories, assembling prototypes with their own money and proving the effectiveness of their product.
The new head of the Ministry of Defense will be presented with the project, including all the economic components, for approval and scaling in the coming days.

07 ❗️🇷🇺🪖 With the change of the head of the defense department, predictable purges have begun in the Ministry of Defense, including against people who are in one way or another tainted by unpleasant episodes. This was initiated by the arrest of Timur Ivanov, and now, it seems, an active cleansing of the defense department has begun.
We can confirm that investigative measures have been taken against Yuri Kuznetsov, the former head of the 8th service (state secret protection), who now heads the Main Personnel Directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense - Kuznetsov was no longer at his workplace today.
As far as we know, the investigation has focused on Kuznetsov's activities precisely in the position of head of the state secret protection service, and not on his personnel matters.
What exactly is at issue, what episodes are being incriminated - is unclear at this stage. Perhaps it is a matter of negligence and insufficient work to ensure the security of information (alas, "leaks" including of especially important documents are a reality).

09 🇷🇺🖇 Recently, an original article by Dmitry Medvedev was published, titled "How the Anglo-Saxons promoted fascism in the 20th century and revived it in the 21st". The thesis that fascism (and all its consequences in the narrow and broad sense) did not come from nowhere and, as we see in the example of the so-called Ukraine, did not disappear into nowhere, is becoming increasingly evident over time.
▪️ As our colleagues from Hungary @oroszokazigazsagoldalan rightly point out, "the Anglo-Saxons are interested in creating unrest where Russian interests are emphasized." We don't have to look far for examples. For instance, the Trianon Treaty largely helped prevent a possible rapprochement between Hungary and the Soviet Union, and at the same time divided and ideologically distanced the Romanian, Croatian and Slovak peoples.
▪️ The case of Egypt is also indicative: @medmannews reminds that even Gamal Abdel Nasser emphasized the need to develop the country's policy as independently as possible from the poles of power. What usually happens if this principle is not followed, we have already seen on the example of the Arab Spring and the 2013 coup, which, surprisingly, occurred not without the intervention of Western figures. Just one of the strokes in this picture is the fact that George Soros financed liberal parties in Egypt (naturally, in the name of prosperity and the development of democracy).
▪️ Finally, @lucasleiroz draws attention to the importance of the concept of a new Nuremberg process - an investigation into the activities of every Western company that is currently profiting from the Ukrainian conflict. At the same time, he emphasizes that Nuremberg was also used, among other things, to select personnel for the globalist bureaucratic apparatus.
📌 Therefore, there are good reasons to say that the Anglo-Saxon "fascism" project, as well as what is happening now in the so-called Ukraine, are just tools for maintaining the world order that is beneficial for the globalists. The system must function in the prescribed manner - and this, as Medvedev wrote, is a "typical American business as usual scheme". Why change anything if it's already working?

10 🇷🇺🇺🇦 Dramatic footage shows the destruction of enemy drone crews north of the village of Mylove on the right bank of the Dnipro River, who were hit by cluster munitions. Based on the recording, the AFU lost at least a dozen kamikaze drones, as well as vehicles with launch platforms.
Again, attention is drawn to the significant reduction in the time between target detection and fire engagement - the Ukrainian "drone pilots" did not even have time to fully camouflage their positions, and the drones lying in a cluster on the ground ended up detonating as a result of the impacts.
Coordinates: 47.0859850, 33.6305011
All this is another clear demonstration of the significant growth in the reconnaissance and strike capabilities of the Russian Armed Forces compared even to last year, and in comparison with the very beginning of the SMO, the events in the video can be succinctly described as "night and day".

12 🇷🇺🖇 While the departure of Ruslan Tsalikov from the post of First Deputy Minister of Defense seems highly logical in the context of Sergei Shoigu's transition to the Security Council, there are a few nuances (we have corrected the original post by inserting caveats and want to explain them separately).
▪️Submitting a resignation report is a natural process when moving to a new position. Deputy Ministers of Defense are appointed by a decree of the President of Russia. So far, there is no such official decree.
▪️At the moment, Tsalikov is at his workplace: he will remain there until the handover of affairs and the position. Moreover, as we saw with Sergei Shoigu himself, up until the last moment when Andrey Belousov's candidacy was announced, he did not outwardly indicate that anything would change. Here, everything hinges, again, on the presidential decree.
▪️On May 15, a meeting of the Board of the Ministry of Defense will be held (it was moved up a week earlier than planned). It is likely that Tsalikov, as well as Krivoruchko, whose resignation is also discussed online, may be present at it (we recall the handover of affairs and positions).
▪️Versions that "Tsalikov/Shevtsova/Krivoruchko/Sadovenko are being shaken up after Ivanov's arrest" are from the Evil One and do not withstand any criticism, as they are primarily aimed at destabilizing the situation within the defense department. The resignations that are to take place will be dictated solely by Andrey Belousov's intention to renew his team.

13 ❗️🇷🇺🖇 On the resignation of the First Deputy Minister of Defense Ruslan Tsalikov
The First Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Ruslan Khadzhismelovich Tsalikov, resigned of his own free will from the post of First Deputy Minister of Defense.
Most likely, Ruslan Tsalikov will follow Shoigu and move to the Security Council: therefore, the resignation at his own request is a natural process. Historically, Tsalikov has been Shoigu's right-hand man in recent years, including during his time as head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, governor of the Moscow Region, and Minister of Defense.
Among other things, he was in control of very interesting military management bodies: the Department of Departmental Financial Control and Audit, the Department of Military-Economic Analysis, and the Legal Department. In the context of the course announced by the new head of the defense department, Andrey Belousov, to fight bureaucracy, as well as plans for an economic audit of the department, it would be a big oversight not to take personal control of all of Tsalikov's areas and not to put his own person there.
❗️And Ruslan Tsalikov is also the person who was in control of the entire media component of the defense department and the Department of Information and Mass Communications. He was the person who determined the entire information policy of the Russian Ministry of Defense, including not only the information coverage, but also the information warfare.
🔻In the third year of the special military operation, we risk seeing how flexible and malleable the information bodies of the Russian Ministry of Defense are, and how much their work was actually tied to the initiatives and instructions of the Shoigu-Tsalikov duo, and how much to the vision of the local commanders. In theory, by June we should notice whether something will change or not.
Moreover, all the screws that the defense department tightened in relation to military correspondents, military bloggers, and information coverage were often dictated by the vision of the minister and his first deputy. How this will work in the new formation - time will tell.
📌 There is a version that Andrey Klepach, the chief economist of VEB, will come to the position of First Deputy Minister of Defense.

14 ❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Slobozhansky direction: Russian Armed Forces have captured a third of Volchansk
situation as of 6:00 pm on May 13, 2024
🔻The Russian Armed Forces are advancing in the north of the Kharkiv Region: there are first confirmations of successful progress in Volchansk:
▪️The territory of Volchansk north of the dividing Volchya River and east of Soborna Street has practically completely come under the control of Russian forces. Yes, sporadic presence of the enemy may remain, but the defense in the northern part of the city has been broken.
By mid-day, battles were raging in the area of Korolenko and Gogol Streets, and the territory of the Central Park and the high-rise residential area east of the lyceum were blocked and partially came under the control of the Russian Armed Forces.
▪️On the western outskirts of Volchansk, the presence of the enemy remains (including ex-Rus from the RDK).
But after the destruction of the bridge across the Volchya River on Privokzalna and Gagarina Streets, the enemy has only two bridges left - a pedestrian bridge in the area of the Volchansk Central District Hospital on Shevchenko Street and a road bridge on Soborna Street (T-21-08 highway).
Another road bridge (Gurkanovsky), located further east at the Volchansk Aggregates Plant, if not completely under the control of the Russian army by this time, is at least under the fire control of the Russian Armed Forces.
▪️Nothing is known yet about attempts to storm the Volchansk Aggregates Plant, but it is possible that the enemy may try to rely on the plant to maintain a foothold in the northern part of the city. Two other strongholds are the Volchansk Lyceum No. 1 and the hospital complex, where the most intense fighting is reportedly taking place.
🔻In other areas of the offensive in the north of the Kharkiv Region, the advance is not as large-scale.
▪️Footage has emerged from the liberated Hlyboke from two days ago: the flag of the Russian Federation is flying on the eastern outskirts of the village. Fighting continues in the Lira-1 gardeners' association on the eastern bank of the Travenske Reservoir, and after taking the gardeners' association, we can talk about the start of the assault on Lyptsі.
▪️South of Morokhivka and Oleynikovo, as well as north of Lukiiantsi, the activity of Ukrainian UAVs and the movement of small groups of Russian infantry are recorded. Apparently, the enemy retains control over Lukiiantsi, and reinforcements are being redeployed to Lyptsі both from the "mixed salad" of the Territorial Defense and from the GUR units.
▪️Under Starytsia and Buhrovka, the Russian Armed Forces are clearing the villages, but it is still too early to speak of the capture of the settlements.
🔻In the near future, the completion of the clearing of northern Volchansk should be expected: the tactics of the Russian troops to cut Original msg | 5 831 | 17 | Loading... |
15 🇩🇪🪖 It seems that in Germany, they have realized the unrealistic nature of the current plans to increase the size of the Bundeswehr and are planning to implement them through the reintroduction of compulsory military service, which was abolished back in 2011.
One of the lobbyists for this proposal is Defense Minister Boris Pistorius. According to media reports, several reform options are being considered, which generally boil down to the introduction of one year of conscription for men from the age of 18.
At the same time, journalists claim that the proposal will face resistance from the ruling "traffic light coalition" led by Olaf Scholz. However, they also note that there are not many alternatives to maintain the combat readiness of the Bundeswehr in the face of an aging population and a shortage of volunteers.
📌 It's funny that until recently, the prevailing view in Europe (and not only there) was that conscription is a long-outdated relic of the past. But the last few years have well demonstrated that in a prolonged high-intensity conflict, a compact professional army will quickly run out, and it will not be possible to do without a mobilization reserve.

16 Rybar Live: Foci of escalation in Africa, May 11-12
Mikhail Zvinchuk, head of the Russian think tank Rybar: «The New York Times had a more restrained reaction, calling for acceptance of African nations' choices and an understanding of why they chose third-country aid to replace American aid» | 3 278 | 4 | Loading... |
17 🇷🇺🇺🇦🖇 Against the backdrop of the advance of the Russian Armed Forces in the Kharkiv Region, it is interesting to observe the reaction in the Western media. For example, the New York Times reports that Ukrainian commanders are blaming each other for failures, the defense line was unprepared, and the so-called Ukraine is exhausted by the war.
In this case, the interest lies not in the apocalyptic pictures painted by the journalists about the situation of the Kyiv regime, but in how the theses and assessment of the actions of the AFU in the materials of major American and European publications have literally changed on command.
After all, a year ago, the same newspapers were telling completely opposite things, showering the so-called Ukraine with compliments and predicting its successful counteroffensive against the "backward Russian army." And they did not stop doing this even in August 2023, when the failures of the AFU became obvious.
In general, another vivid illustration of what the analysis from supposedly renowned Western publications or think tanks often represents, at least when it comes to the Ukrainian conflict.

19 Fwd from @prbezposhady
Here is the English translation of the message:
Well, girls, yesterday everyone had already managed to not only bury Andrey Removich Belousov administratively, but also hold a funeral for him. Allegedly, he will go to a cushy position in some FSUE - a place of exile for previous officials. But it turned out differently. Why Putin changed the rules can be analyzed.
Why Putin did not radically change the government is clear. Like in the anecdote about "Is it working? Don't touch it". Sanctions are working, so the White House does not require special attention.
But with the Ministry of Defense, it's different: Putin is immersed in its work. Even after Timur Ivanov's arrest, Shoigu's positions looked shaky but isolated. Now, three equal-status centers have formed: the government, the AP, and the Ministry of Defense with Belousov.
The 2024 budget allocates over 15 trillion rubles to national defense and security, more than 40% of spending. Belousov's task will be to transform the Ministry of Defense into a full-fledged part of the economy.
As for the Security Council, do not have illusions: its status under Patrushev is an anomaly, and supervision of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation is likely compensation.

21 🇷🇺🖍⚓️ Happy Navy Day!
The official date of the establishment of the Black Sea Fleet is considered to be May 13 (2), 1783, when after the annexation of Crimea, the ships of the Azov Flotilla entered the Akhtiarska Bay. Subsequently, Sevastopol was founded there, which became the main Russian naval base in the region.
Over the years of its existence, the history of the Black Sea Fleet has seen many great events - it is associated with the names of Ushakov, Senyavin, Lazarev, Nakhimov and other outstanding Russian admirals, under whose leadership the ships with the St. Andrew's flag defeated the enemy and won victory in the most important naval battles.
Now the Black Sea Fleet faces many new challenges related to changes in the nature of naval warfare and other factors. However, we believe that it will once again successfully overcome all difficulties, as has happened many times in the 19th and 20th centuries, and will add new glorious pages to its history.

22 🇬🇪✊ Last night around midnight, opposition supporters in Georgia protesting the "Foreign Agents Law" traditionally blocked the approaches to the parliament building in the center of Tbilisi.
▪️Several thousand people flooded the government quarter and blocked the entrances and approaches to the building. At the same time, police units were on duty there.
▪️Almost nothing happened until the morning, and in the morning as the working day approached, the police pushed back the protesters and unblocked the entrances to the parliament.
▪️A little later, a heavy rain started, which forced the citizens to leave the square altogether. Thus, the rally completely failed, and the law was adopted in the third reading at the parliament session. Tomorrow it will be submitted to the plenary session.
🔻This wonderful example once again shows what even such mass strikes as in Georgia can lead to - without a clear goal and a further action plan.

23 🇦🇲 Strikes and Protests in Armenia
Situation as of 12:00 on May 13, 2024
🔻Yesterday's call by Bagrat Srbazyan for acts of civil disobedience across the country is already bearing fruit: since morning, practically half of Yerevan has been completely paralyzed due to the blockade of streets by protesters.
▪️Employees of many administrative and educational institutions have joined the strike and taken to the streets of the capital. Some are blocking traffic with their own vehicles.
▪️Police and special forces have begun mass arrests of strike participants. Absolutely everyone is being detained without distinction. Judging by the tactics, the security forces are trying to intimidate Srbazyan's supporters. By 11 am, 171 people have been arrested.
▪️Despite this, the march through the streets of Yerevan is continuing. Moreover, a new car rally in support of the "Tavush for the Motherland" movement is planned from Sotk to Sevan.
❗️Anti-government rallies are gaining momentum. The most important thing for the opposition is to maintain the same pace and not allow a decrease in interest in it and public fatigue from the lack of results. The example of Georgia shows where this can lead.

24 ❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces decided to "congratulate" the Black Sea Fleet in their own way on the holiday. Since early morning, due to the enemy's air activity in Crimea, the missile danger alert has been triggered three times.
During the first attack, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense, four Storm Shadow missiles and seven drones launched from the Kherson region were shot down.
The next two alerts in southern Russia were false alarms due to flights of cruise missile carriers over the Mykolaiv region. Given how much the Western curators love symbolic dates for their attacks, this is clearly not the last attempt for today.

25 ❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Slobozhansky direction: fighting in Volchansk and pushing out AFU reserves
situation as of 10:00 on May 13, 2024
On the morning of the fourth day of the Russian army's offensive in the north of the Kharkiv Region, no large-scale breakthroughs of the enemy's defenses have been recorded. After clearing the "gray" border zone, Russian assault units focused on breaking through the AFU strongholds and defensive lines, as well as pushing out the reserves.
▪️By the evening of May 12, the Russian army took the meat processing plant in the north of Volchansk and was clearing the shoe factory: these are the two main buildings on the northern outskirts of the city, from where the AFU controlled the approaches. The forest belts and fields from the north have been completely cleared and passed under the control of the Russian troops.
The "fog of war" covers the areas to the east of the city: an offensive is underway from the direction of Tikhiy, but the scale of the advance is still unclear.
But judging by the strikes of the Ukrainian artillery deployed in Rubizhne and Pechenegy, Russian groups managed to advance towards the center of the city. However, there is no surrender of Volchansk: units of the 57th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade of the AFU arrived on the southern outskirts of Volchansk and in the Belyi Kolodez located 12 km southeast.
▪️At the same time, the AFU are trying to solve the logistics problem and establish supply through the Siversky Donets River: attempts are being made to build a pontoon crossing in the vicinity of Stary Saltiv.
▪️In the Hlyboke - Oleinikovo - northern outskirts of the village of Lukiiantsi - Zelene area, no changes have occurred: the Russian troops are still pushing out the approaching reserves. Assault units from the Poltava Region are arriving in the Kharkiv Region, which should strengthen the defensive capabilities of the AFU in this area.
▪️Fighting continues along the line Izbytske - Starytsia - Buhrovatka, but we cannot yet confirm the capture of settlements.
🔻A scandal is erupting in the Ukrainian media space due to territorial losses: the head of the GUR, Kyrylo Budanov, blamed the commander-in-chief of the AFU, Oleksandr Syrskyi. The public spat is intended to divert attention from problems at the front and "entertain" the population, while the Ukrainian command is frantically trying to solve the problem of the crumbling northern front.

26 ❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Highlights of Russian Military Operation in Ukraine: highlights of the week May, 6-12, 2024
▪️Russian troops have attacked energy facilities in the territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. The missiles hit Dobrotvir TPP, Ladyzhynsʹka TPP and Burshtynsʹka TPP, as well as the turbine hall of Dnipro HPP-1.
▪️Several more missiles hit the 330/110kV autotransformer in 330 kV Poltava substation. In Kremenchuk HPP, the hit fell at the head cover of the hydraulic unit No.4.
▪️Russian troops are working to identify and destroy Ukrainian aviation bases. In Dnipropetrovsk region, near Manvelivka, Russian Armed Forces hit an airfield, destroying two Mi-24 helicopters.
▪️Ukrainian units, in turn, continue to attack fuel and energy infrastructure facilities in Russia. The enemy struck tank farms in Roven'ky and Luhansk with ATACMS: four people were killed, 16 more were wounded.
▪️For the first time since the beginning of special military operation, Ukrainian drones attacked targets in the Republic of Bashkortostan, covering about 1300 km. Several drones damaged the visbreaking device on the territory of the local refinery in Salavat.

27 🇷🇺🇺🇦 Chronicles of the special military operation
for May 12, 2024
Russian forces struck identified targets in Kharkiv, Sumy and Myrhorod. The AFU, in turn, again attacked the LUKOIL refinery in Volgograd and an industrial zone in Lipetsk with drones. In Belgorod, as a result of the impact of a Ukrainian air bomb, an entrance hall collapsed: nine people were killed, 20 were injured, and the rescue operation is ongoing at the scene of the tragedy.
In the Slobozhansky direction, Russian troops expanded the control zone near Starytsia, with fighting ongoing on the outskirts of Buhrovatka. In the Volchansk area, fighting continues, where the enemy is hastily redeploying reserves.
In the Bakhmut direction, there are battles on the eastern outskirts of Chasiv Yar and south of the Stupky-Holubivski-2 reserve along the T-05-04 highway.
In the Avdiivka direction, Russian troops destroyed another Abrams tank near Novoselivka Persha. North of Arkhanhel's'ke and Ocheretyne, fighting continues on the approaches to Kalynove and Novoaleksandrivka.
In the Vremivka direction, active clashes continue in Staromaiorske and on the southern outskirts of Urozhayne. The Russian Aerospace Forces and artillery are working on the AFU positions in this sector.

Доклад Андрея Белоусова о беспилотниках
Андрей Белоусов, помощник президента России, выступил с докладом по теме беспилотных летательных аппаратов (БПЛА). Вот основные моменты:
• Российские ВС активно используют БПЛА различных типов в ходе специальной военной операции. Они применяются для разведки, целеуказания и корректировки огня.
• Однако Россия сталкивается с нехваткой современных БПЛА. Это связано с тем, что до начала СВО Россия в основном полагалась на импортные комплектующие, которые теперь недоступны из-за санкций.
• Для решения этой проблемы Россия активно развивает собственное производство БПЛА. Ведется работа по созданию новых моделей, в том числе тяжелых ударных беспилотников.
• Также Россия изучает возможность использования гражданских коммерческих БПЛА в военных целях. Это позволит быстрее нарастить парк беспилотников.
• В целом Белоусов отметил, что Россия предпринимает серьезные усилия для наращивания возможностей по применению БПЛА, но этот процесс требует времени. Original msg | 4 123 | 10 | Loading... |
29 🇷🇺 To put it simply, the conclusion of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC) from under the wing of the Ministry of Defense has been clarified: the structure responsible for the Russian defense industry and export operations has followed Shoigu and come under the supervision of the Security Council and its new head.
Essentially, nothing has fundamentally changed: the levers are still in the same hands. However, through the Security Council, possibly, resolving certain bureaucratic obstacles to clear the way for the FSMTC will become easier.

30 ❗️🇷🇺 Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has been promoted - to the Security Council of the Russian Federation.
It is not yet known where exactly Nikolai Patrushev will go. Perhaps, just as for Medvedev in his time, an additional position and a separate area that he will deal with will be invented for him. Or perhaps, Nikolai Platonovich has simply received a long-awaited retirement.
What Shoigu's arrival will mean for the Security Council - an update and reshuffling (loyal Shoigu cadres will need to be brought in). At this stage, a certain almost caste system has developed in the structure of the Security Council, without the possibility of upward growth for individual employees.
Perhaps, in the current conditions, this will mean a restructuring of the Security Council's work mechanism into a slightly different plane. Perhaps.

31 ❗️🇷🇺🪖 Well, Russia has a new Minister of Defense - Andrey Removich Belousov.
To be more precise, his candidacy has been presented for approval, but everyone understands what's going on.
This once again shows that the Russian system never goes along with public opinion and does not rely on the hopes and aspirations of the people (no matter how many forecasts anyone makes).
In practice, Belousov's appointment as Defense Minister means the start of a large-scale audit and restructuring of all financial models within the defense department, as well as potentially abandoning the pretentious "beauty".
Belousov is a sufficiently tough and effective manager who works 24/7, knows how to count, and is a trusted person of Vladimir Putin (primarily on economic issues).
In the face of a severe shortage of time, Belousov will definitely prefer not slide presentations, but two Excel spreadsheets on 1 page with two economic options. And he will make a decision based on this spreadsheet, because he knows how to count.
Belousov is the kind of person who has always had his own point of view on many things, even if it was unpopular. Perhaps this is exactly what the Russian defense department needs today.

32 🇦🇲 Strikes and Protests in Armenia
Situation as of 9:00 PM on May 12, 2024
🔻In Armenia, after yesterday's local strikes, today was marked by new widespread rallies. The morning began with Archbishop Bagrat Srbazyan holding a morning liturgy for parishioners in Yerevan, and afterwards he called on everyone to attend the demonstration in the evening.
▪️By 6:30 PM local time, citizens from different parts of Yerevan began to gather at Republic Square. Moreover, a convoy set out from Artic towards the capital and arrived at the main square just as Srbazyan's speech began.
▪️Based on videos published online, the scale of today's event can be assessed: thousands of people flooded the center of Yerevan. The entire square and adjacent streets are packed with supporters of the movement.
▪️Srbazyan's speech, as well as those of other leaders of the anti-government march, including former Armenian Foreign Minister Vahagn Melikyan, caused a wide resonance in Armenian society.
❗️A significant part of the protesters were awaiting the announcement of further plans from Bagrat Srbazyan. And as a result, the movement's leader declared the start of daily strikes across Armenia, as well as the need to form a transitional government. At least, some kind of plan is emerging.
Looking at the example of Georgia, we can see where the lack of such a plan can lead - without it, any actions (no matter how large-scale) are doomed to fail. We have no doubt that the Pashinyan administration is also observing the experience of its neighbors and is simply trying to wait out the moment.

33 🇮🇱🇵🇸 Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone
Chronicle of events for May 12, 2024
In the north of the Gaza Strip, the Israeli forces launched a limited military operation in Jabalia. The maneuverable Israeli forces, supported by armored vehicles, entered some areas in the eastern part of the populated area with the stated task of eliminating the infrastructure of the militants.
In the south of the enclave, the units of the Israel Defense Forces did not make any attempts to advance towards Rafah during the day. Instead, local raids on the facilities of Palestinian groups in certain areas of the city continued. At the same time, mutual strikes were recorded.
In the West Bank, Israeli security forces carried out another campaign of raids against supporters of the Hamas movement. Since yesterday and up to the present time, 15 Palestinians have been detained during the raids, as a result of which the total number of detainees from the autonomy reached 8,710 people.
Along the Israeli-Lebanese border, the parties reduced the intensity of strikes on each other's positions during the day. Hezbollah reported shelling of IDF deployment points. The Israelis, in turn, worked at night on several settlements in southern Lebanon, after which a relative lull came from their side.

34 ❗️🇮🇱🇵🇸 Battle for Rafah: Calm in the Eastern Part of the City
Situation as of the end of May 12, 2024
After the announcement of the evacuation of the civilian population from the eastern part of the "Philadelphia Corridor" and the expansion of the humanitarian zone in Khan Yunis, the Israel Defense Forces units did not make any attempts to advance towards Rafah over the past day.
▪️Instead, local raids by Israeli troops continued in certain areas in the east of Rafah. During another such operation, IDF personnel destroyed several underground tunnel shafts as well as rocket launchers used by Palestinians to shell Israel.
▪️At the same time, there were mutual strikes: the IDF used artillery and air strikes to bomb the southern part of the enclave. In response, Palestinian groups again shelled the positions of Israeli units in the territories under their control, including the Rafah Crossing and the Kerem Shalom Crossing.
▪️Against the background of intense and continuous bombardment by the IDF, reports appear in the Arab segment of the network about possible problems with the Internet and mobile coverage in the south of the enclave. Due to this, the area of combat operations may be shrouded in the "fog of war", and the amount of incoming information may decrease.
🔻Meanwhile, some American publications confirm that the Israelis' capture of Rafah is unlikely to deal a strong tactical blow to the Hamas movement. And the resumption of operations in the north of Gaza altogether indicates that Palestinian factions maintain their combat capabilities.

🇷🇺🪖 Well, our information about Yuri Kuznetsov, the current head of the Main Directorate of Personnel of the Russian Ministry of Defense and the former head of the 8th Directorate of the General Staff, turned out to be true: he was indeed detained for affairs during his time as the head of the state secret protection service.
A fair question arises, what kind of commercial structures gave such a large bribe. Equipment supply? Providing information security? Or something else related to the preservation of confidential information?
The scope for imagination is simply colossal (especially considering the fact that Kuznetsov is a person who has always been very cautious). Perhaps the investigation will clarify what it's all about.

🇷🇺🪖 According to the Deputy Defense Minister Shevtsova, who is currently responsible for the economy of the war, we cannot confirm the information about her submitting a resignation request.
It's understandable that resignation requests are a very popular topic right now. So there will be a lot of such reports about everyone and anyone. At the moment, none of the Deputy Defense Ministers are packing their bags or planning to leave their offices (even if resignation requests were indeed submitted).
We explained the reasons for this yesterday: the starting point for such reshuffles will be the first Board of the Russian Ministry of Defense, whose meeting will take place tomorrow, as well as the process of handing over duties and positions.
In the near future, Shevtsova's dismissal, against whom many have complaints, is not believed to be likely: in the midst of the offensive and attempts to regain strategic initiative, the working (albeit somehow) system of financial support for the Russian Armed Forces is unlikely to be shaken at the start.

🇷🇺🖇 Хотя уход Руслана Цаликова с поста первого заместителя министра обороны выглядит в высшей степени логично в контексте перехода Сергея Шойгу в Совет безопасности, есть несколько нюансов (мы поправили оригинальный пост, вставив оговорки, и хотим их отдельно пояснить). ▪️Подача рапорта об отставке — это естественный процесс при переходе на новое место деятельности. Назначают заместителей министра обороны указом президента России. Пока его официально нет. ▪️На данный момент Цаликов находится на рабочем месте: до передачи дел и должности так и будет оставаться. Более того, как мы видели на примере того же Сергея Шойгу, до последнего момента объявления кандидатуры Андрея Белоусова, он своим видом не подавал, что что-то будет меняться. Тут всё упирается, опять же, в указ президента. ▪️15 мая состоится заседание Коллегии Министерства обороны (её перенесли на неделю раньше, чем планировалось). Вероятно, что Цаликов, что Криворучко, об отставке которого тоже говорят в Сети, могут на ней присутствовать (вспоминаем…

🇷🇺🪖 There is one day left until the meeting of the Board of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, where the public appearance of the new Minister of Defense will take place. The defense department is awaiting Andrey Belousov, because the thirst for change has matured.
But in fairness, the same way they were waiting for Sergey Shoigu in 2012.
It is difficult to say whether there will be more purges and high-profile arrests. There is an opinion that they may indeed go down this path in order to ensure the most spectacular change in the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense: especially since many heads of military administration bodies have skeletons in their closet.
And this will also, of course, affect the morale of the personnel at the front: the news of the arrest of Timur Ivanov, the change of the Minister of Defense and the detention of Yuri Kuznetsov were met with great enthusiasm.
📌 Many are speculating about the real role of Andrey Belousov. But here it was rightly noted that economic optimization should not be expected: the task of the new Minister of Defense is to properly justify new spending and stop the arbitrariness of the "state within a state" in the form of the Russian Ministry of Defense, integrating and synchronizing it with other elements of the Russian military economy.
In the West, they are already pointing fingers in the sky and saying that in this way Russia is preparing for war with NATO. Well, let's be frank: fine-tuning the military economy is a preparation for a major war. So there is nothing to hide here.

ОШИБОЧНОЕ МНЕНИЕ, ЧТО БЕЛОУСОВ – ЭТО ПРО ОПТИМИЗАЦИЮ ВОЕННЫХ РАСХОДОВ Тут один умный аналитик-экономист, комментируя назначение Белоусова, написал, что дескать назначили его с целью оптимизировать военные расходы, которые, как внезапно откровенно заявил Песков, «приблизились к ситуации середины 1980-х гг». Что это за ситуация, лучше, чем Холодный расчет, не скажешь)) При всем уважении к автору данного тезиса, мы с ним не можем согласиться, ибо подобный KPI для министра обороны (если предположить, что он существует) сразу входит в непримиримое противоречие с задачей обеспечить армию всем необходимым. Белоусов – не про оптимизацию. Он, во-первых, как мы уже писали вчера, про госплан, а, во-вторых, про то, что подготовьтесь к длительному периоду военной экономики. Главное отличие Белоусова от Шойгу на данном посту (мы исключительно про экономику) – это то, что Шойгу выбивал военные бюджеты и принимал решения, не осознавая, а, скорее всего, и не задумываясь об экономических последствиях. А Белоусов в силу своих…

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Chronicles of the special military operation
for May 13, 2024
Over the past day, Russian forces struck several targets in the front-line and rear areas on the territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. In turn, the AFU struck the ATACMS MLRS on Krasnodoн in the LPR, and continue to strike civilian infrastructure in the border areas of Belgorod and Kursk Regions.
In the Slobozhansky direction, Russian forces are advancing in several sectors and fighting in the industrial zone of Volchansk, as well as in the multi-story buildings on the eastern outskirts of the city. In the area of Hlyboke, heavy fighting continues on the approaches to Lyptsi.
In the Bakhmut direction, Russian Armed Forces units are storming enemy positions in the Canal neighborhood in Chasiv Yar, and also striking positions in the city and its environs.
In the Avdiivka direction, there are battles in the forest belts along the railway to the west of Ocheretyne, as well as on the approaches to Novoaleksandrivka and Kalynove.
In the Kherson direction, there are ongoing clashes in the island zone north of Kozachi Lahery and in Krynky. Russian forces struck a UAV crew and several dozen drones north of Mylove on the right bank of the Dnipro.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone
Chronicle of events for May 13, 2024
In the north of the Gaza Strip, the IDF is conducting local operations in several areas. The main clashes are taking place in Jabalia, where infantry is operating with the support of armored vehicles.
In the south of the enclave, in the vicinity of Rafah, there are no new advances by the Israelis. IDF units are conducting engineering work, combing the occupied territory, and carrying out demolitions of various infrastructure.
On the border with Lebanon, the situation has not undergone major changes, with an exchange of strikes continuing between the IDF and Hezbollah. In northern Israel, air raid sirens sounded several times during the day.
The situation in the West Bank is also stable - the region is routinely seeing raids by Israeli security forces and arrests of suspects with ties to Palestinian groups.

⚡️🇷🇺🪖 Testing of the Russian uncrewed surface vessel
Well, now we can officially say: the "People's USV" project has undergone testing.
Our comrades from the channel Beyond the Fogs @BeyondTheFogs published the first footage of testing the working version of their own naval drone. The project received support from the previous Minister of Defense, and assembly is being carried out at one of the workshops in the Tula Region with the direct support of the local government.
▪️Declared range: up to 250 km in the basic load (but you can easily install larger fuel tanks)
▪️Explosive payload: 250 kg (in the footage), with plans to increase it to 350 kg TNT equivalent in the future.
▪️Equipped with modern satellite modules and an inertial navigation system with compass deviation.
The team of the channel Beyond the Fogs has come a long way, persistently knocking on the doors of various ministries, agencies and factories, assembling prototypes with their own money and proving the effectiveness of their product.
The new head of the Ministry of Defense will be presented with the project, including all the economic components, for approval and scaling in the coming days.

❗️🇷🇺🪖 With the change of the head of the defense department, predictable purges have begun in the Ministry of Defense, including against people who are in one way or another tainted by unpleasant episodes. This was initiated by the arrest of Timur Ivanov, and now, it seems, an active cleansing of the defense department has begun.
We can confirm that investigative measures have been taken against Yuri Kuznetsov, the former head of the 8th service (state secret protection), who now heads the Main Personnel Directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense - Kuznetsov was no longer at his workplace today.
As far as we know, the investigation has focused on Kuznetsov's activities precisely in the position of head of the state secret protection service, and not on his personnel matters.
What exactly is at issue, what episodes are being incriminated - is unclear at this stage. Perhaps it is a matter of negligence and insufficient work to ensure the security of information (alas, "leaks" including of especially important documents are a reality).

🇷🇺🖇 Recently, an original article by Dmitry Medvedev was published, titled "How the Anglo-Saxons promoted fascism in the 20th century and revived it in the 21st". The thesis that fascism (and all its consequences in the narrow and broad sense) did not come from nowhere and, as we see in the example of the so-called Ukraine, did not disappear into nowhere, is becoming increasingly evident over time.
▪️ As our colleagues from Hungary @oroszokazigazsagoldalan rightly point out, "the Anglo-Saxons are interested in creating unrest where Russian interests are emphasized." We don't have to look far for examples. For instance, the Trianon Treaty largely helped prevent a possible rapprochement between Hungary and the Soviet Union, and at the same time divided and ideologically distanced the Romanian, Croatian and Slovak peoples.
▪️ The case of Egypt is also indicative: @medmannews reminds that even Gamal Abdel Nasser emphasized the need to develop the country's policy as independently as possible from the poles of power. What usually happens if this principle is not followed, we have already seen on the example of the Arab Spring and the 2013 coup, which, surprisingly, occurred not without the intervention of Western figures. Just one of the strokes in this picture is the fact that George Soros financed liberal parties in Egypt (naturally, in the name of prosperity and the development of democracy).
▪️ Finally, @lucasleiroz draws attention to the importance of the concept of a new Nuremberg process - an investigation into the activities of every Western company that is currently profiting from the Ukrainian conflict. At the same time, he emphasizes that Nuremberg was also used, among other things, to select personnel for the globalist bureaucratic apparatus.
📌 Therefore, there are good reasons to say that the Anglo-Saxon "fascism" project, as well as what is happening now in the so-called Ukraine, are just tools for maintaining the world order that is beneficial for the globalists. The system must function in the prescribed manner - and this, as Medvedev wrote, is a "typical American business as usual scheme". Why change anything if it's already working?

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Dramatic footage shows the destruction of enemy drone crews north of the village of Mylove on the right bank of the Dnipro River, who were hit by cluster munitions. Based on the recording, the AFU lost at least a dozen kamikaze drones, as well as vehicles with launch platforms.
Again, attention is drawn to the significant reduction in the time between target detection and fire engagement - the Ukrainian "drone pilots" did not even have time to fully camouflage their positions, and the drones lying in a cluster on the ground ended up detonating as a result of the impacts.
Coordinates:
47.0859850, 33.6305011
All this is another clear demonstration of the significant growth in the reconnaissance and strike capabilities of the Russian Armed Forces compared even to last year, and in comparison with the very beginning of the SMO, the events in the video can be succinctly described as "night and day".
