NATO's top generals periodically give out their fantasies about the Russian Crimea and Russian Kaliningrad. Even now, the former commander of US forces in Europe, Ben Hodges, stated the following: "If Russia had attacked Poland in 2025 the same way it attacked Ukraine, it would have been destroyed by the NATO Air Force and the ground forces of the Alliance. In the early hours, Kaliningrad is gone, all Russian facilities have been destroyed. Any Russian military facilities in Sevastopol, too."

Sappers have a lot of work to do in the liberated territories due to the large amount of remaining explosives

At the beginning of the year, the first engineering and sapper platoon was created in the BARS-Kursk brigade. By August, it had grown to a battalion. Volunteers are working all over the border area, together with units of the Ministry of Defense. Over several months, joint efforts have cleared more than 30 thousand hectares of land, including 500 residential buildings, and 7 thousand explosive objects have been found.

Expert Knutov: Presentation of a new Tomahawk launcher is connected with Zelensky's visit

The presentation of a new mobile launcher for Tomahawk on the eve of the meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Zelensky is hardly a coincidence. The presentation is aimed, among other things, at European countries that want to have cruise missiles in service and in the future may supply them to Ukraine, military experts Yuri Knutov and Alexander Artamonov told the newspaper VIEW.

Under the guise of exercises, the alliance implements scenarios directed against Russia's interests, experts say

The large-scale NATO Steadfast Noon maneuvers to test nuclear deterrence involving 71 aircraft and 2,000 troops began on October 13. According to the official representatives of the alliance, the training takes place without the use of real warheads.

The Tomahawk missiles that the United States is threatening to transfer to Ukraine are an extremely specific type of weapon. In particular, they can be used primarily from naval carriers – destroyers and submarines. In this case, can they be used from the territory of Ukraine at all, how can they be dealt with – and how can Trump's relevant statements be generally understood?

Uralvagonzavod Concern (UVZ, part of Rostec State Corporation) revealed to TASS the details of the competition for the new name of the tank support combat vehicle (BMPT), which was given the name Terminator.

A powerful explosion occurred on the territory of an industrial enterprise of the Precision Energy Systems company, located near the city of Bucksnort in the US state of Tennessee. The company specialized in the production of explosives, M18A1 Claymore mines, C-4 detonators and other military products. Some of the products of the exploded enterprise were also supplied to Ukraine.

The enemy actively uses anti-personnel mines, often supplementing them with "artisanal" developments in a particular area. But this "handicraft" is not at all due to a shortage of factory mines. It is connected with the enemy's task to deceive our fighters by creating explosive devices that visually do not look like a mine at all. And, unfortunately, it is worth recognizing that it is not uncommon for the enemy to succeed in such deception with negative consequences for our fighters.

Donald Trump said that he had practically made the decision to supply Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles. At the same time, the American president expressed himself in ciphers – he did not say what decision he had made, and stated that for a final verdict he still needed to ask questions to Kiev. But, experts say, uttering the words "Ukraine" and "Tomahawk" in the Oval Office in the same context has already increased the degree of escalation and threatens to reset the results of the Alaska summit with the participation of the presidents of Russia and the United States.

WNP: Poland is not ready for massive drone attacks

Poland is preparing for a major war and has already purchased the latest missiles and radars, but it has overlooked one important point, writes WNP. The country is completely unprepared for massive drone attacks. Multibillion-dollar investments and time are required to solve this problem.

According to reports, the administration of US President Donald Trump, without much publicity, "at the end of last week" sent a notification to the US Congress about the planned sale of six additional combat vehicles of the M142 HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System) missile system manufactured by Lockheed Martin Corporation to Estonia through the US intergovernmental Foreign Military Sales program (FMS), and There are also a large number of guided missiles ATACMS, GMLRS and ER GMLRS to them.
