2024-08-17 | The disarray in Putin’s military command has been exposed by Ukraine’s attack in Russia. Zelensky’s chief adviser, Mykhailo Podolyak has explained in a recent interview for the British newspaper The Independent that Ukraine’s cross-border offensive in the Kursk direction shows Putin has ‘very little control’ over Russia’s border regions. Shockingly, on Russia state TV, one commentator even suggested that they were lost, and should be abandoned. This idea was shouted down by the other propagandists but is also indicative of the chaos and disarray that is engulfing Putin’s failing regime. ---------- Kyiv’s army seems able to have exploited poorly-defended Russian positions – but how is this possible? Speculation is rife that embattled governor of the Kursk region may not have used the money provided to fortify the frontier well. It would hardly be a surprise if sub-standard work was carries out because of ‘contracts for friends’ and use of substandard materials. Big chunks of the budgets may simply have disappeared into greedy pockets. This exposes the fundamental rot within Putin’s ‘vertical’ system. According to sources, Ukrainian troops overran two fortified Russian defensive lines, infantry strong points with anti-tank ditches, before pushing up to a dozen miles into Kursk in the early hours of the incursion. After a few days, Ukraine has been able to take the substantial settlement of Sudzha. And despite the scepticism of some commentators, experts and allies, and in refutation of Russian propaganda narratives, Ukraine’s forces are still advancing. Thet seems to have a robust plan, and specific objectives, but have been incredibly tight-lipped about what they are. In this case, the uncertainty and speculation help Ukraine (overall), and terrify the Russian ‘elite’. ---------- Sources: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-ukraine-war-kursk-incursion-pokrovsk-b2597391.html https://kyivindependent.com/10-days-of-kursk-from-first-shot-to-capture-of-sudzha/ https://kyivindependent.com/thousands-flee-as-russian-troops-take-one-donetsk-oblast-village-after-another/ https://kyivindependent.com/mick-ryan-on-ukraines-kursk-offensive-high-risk-high-return/ https://kyivindependent.com/ukraine-established-military-administration-in-russias-kursk-oblast/ https://kyivindependent.com/how-ukraines-kursk-incursion-threw-russias-top-propagandists-into-crisis/ https://kyivindependent.com/kursk-incursion-deals-blow-to-putins-prestige-marking-first-ground-invasion-of-russia-since-world-war-ii/ https://kyivindependent.com/ukraine-can-decide-how-to-use-spanish-supplied-equipment-spanish-defense-minister-says/ ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Julia Friedrich interview - The experience of Ukrainians under occupation Research referenced in this video: https://gppi.net/2024/07/30/life-under-russian-occupation-in-ukraine https://gppi.net/media/Friedrich_2024_Life-Under-Russian-Occupation.pdf ---------- NEW STUDY | “They Came to ‘Liberate’ Us and Left Us with Nothing” What does life under Russia’s occupation look like? It is a “total, all-encompassing fear” that dominates all aspects of life – that is how Ukrainians who lived under occupation in 2022-23 until they were liberated or escaped described it to me. In a new study, I collect accounts from Ukrainians to understand what their stories tell us about Russian occupation practices. News about the war in Ukraine are often dominated by front line movements and the counting of kilometres of advance or retreat. Through in-depth interviews, I aimed to instead shed light on the experiences of those that populate these spots on the map and the human cost of living under Russian ‘rule.’ ---------- Julia Friedrich is Research Fellow at the Global Public Policy Institute (GPPi). She specialises in security dynamics in Russia and Ukraine. Other areas of interest include Germany and the EU's crisis prevention, stabilization and conflict resolution tools and feminist foreign policy. ---------- LINKS: https://x.com/ja_friedrich https://gppi.net/team/julia-friedrich https://gppi.net/publications/julia-friedrich ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

2024-08-10 | The Battle of Kursk hastens the downfall of Putin's murderous regime. In a historical irony the name 'Kursk' bookends failure at the start of his time in office, and may signal it's end in catastrophic failure. Is Kursk Putin's avenging nemesis? ---------- Kursk - a gamble for victory “A surprise attack, conceived with cunning, prepared with duplicity and executed with ruthlessness, provides international history with its most melodramatic moments.” So explains Sir Lawrence Freedman in his superlative books ‘Command’ and ‘Strategy’. And Ukraine has demonstrated its command of surprise and the potential battlefield impact through its lightning advance through Russia’s Kursk oblast. The power of shock in warfare is to overwhelm an adversary when they are at their weakest or when they least expect it. The irony here, is that Russian hubris, and its culture of systemic lying throughout the military and political hierarchy mean they are less likely to imagine the unexpected and prepare for it. Add to this the fact Russia does not see Ukraine as sovereign, and constantly denies its agency, which means they underestimate the Ukrainian capacity for innovation and surprise time and again, to their detriment. This time assumptive and arrogant thinking may lead to total defeat. ‘Between countries at war, there is no border, there is only the front,’ states the Ukrainian military researcher Mykola Bielieskov. Russians have forgotten that, but the Ukrainians did not. The incursions into Kursk and now Belgorod, have achieved stunning initial success and are looking more and more like a full offensive. This shows what Ukrainians can achieve if they have both the tools and lack of restrictions in how they fight Russia. ---------- Source accounts on Twitter: https://twitter.com/WarintheFuture https://twitter.com/War_Mapper https://twitter.com/NOELreports https://twitter.com/DefenceU https://twitter.com/defencehq https://twitter.com/IAPonomarenko https://twitter.com/MBielieskov https://twitter.com/PhillipsPOBrien ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

2024-08-10 | The Battle of Kursk hastens the downfall of Putin's murderous regime. In a historical irony the name 'Kursk' bookends failure at the start of his time in office, and may signal it's end in catastrophic failure. Is Kursk Putin's avenging nemesis? ---------- Is it accurate to say Ukraine has ‘invaded’ Russia? Imposing that language on the situation may be premature and depend very much on what happens next. In the unlikely event that Ukrainian troops charge up to Moscow, Prigozhin style, then the phrase may be apt. But if the present action turns into a smart manoeuvre to ‘go around’ Russian fortifications on the Eastern and southern fronts, then it could be seen as simply an extension of the active front that winds its way across many hundreds of kilometres of Ukrainian territory, of which around a thousand kilometres is experiencing active combat at any given time. We seem immune to the shock of seeing a vast conventional war unfold on Ukraine’s territory, as if that were somehow normal and natural. But shocked that the same should be meted out to the aggressor army on Russian territory. In traditional warfare, that makes no sense, as whether formally declared or not, Russia has mounted an act of aggression against Ukraine, on a scale not seen since WWII. In other words, a war for territorial acquisition and regime change, which also has the characteristics of a genocidal campaign. The UN charter is clear and explicit that Ukraine has the right of self-defence as the victim of this aggression, and whose sovereign territories have been violated. The UN Charter states: Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken measures necessary to maintain international peace and security. ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
