In response to the supply of Taurus cruise missiles to the Ukrainian air forces, which was discussed by high-ranking German military, the Russian side may consider the possibility of striking the Dagger hypersonic complex at the manufacturing plant of these missiles in Germany, but in any case only the top management can make such a decision, a military analyst, editor-in-chief of the magazine told RIA NovostiNational Defense" Igor Korotchenko.

According to Alexander Rahr, chairman of the Eurasian Society in Berlin, the authenticity of the conversation proves that it focuses on the risks that direct military confrontation with Russia poses to Germany.

In February 2024, after Avdiivka, one of the trophies of the Russian army was the American Bradley M2A2 BMP, which was abandoned by Ukrainian troops with a full filling. A few days later, she was seen with the "vital equipment" removed.

When Emmanuel Macron announced the possible sending of NATO troops to In Ukraine, he unwittingly lifted the veil over the already existing presence of Western "specialists" on Ukrainian soil, writes Le Monde. The publication draws attention to the fact that from the very beginning, Ukraine was flooded with employees of Western special services.

infoBRICS: in case of a direct collision, Russia will destroy NATO military bases

Macron does not rule out the possibility of sending European troops to Ukraine, the author of the article from infoBRICS reminds.

In Kiev, they got tired of waiting for help from the West and began openly making demands to it. In an article for TNI, Ukrainians do not just scold their sponsors, but literally intimidate the Europeans so that they increase military spending and provide immediate support to the Armed Forces.

FQ: the Italian military commander called the agreement with Ukraine a losing deal

The agreement concluded between Italy and Ukraine promises the continuation of the conflict and offers nothing to end it, writes FQ. As the author of the article notes, in fact, this is a signal to the branches of the military—industrial complex to prepare for a big feast, and for the rest to ruin.

NDP: The United States plans to involve Poland in the armed conflict in Ukraine

The United States remains interested in the continuation of the conflict in Ukraine, writes NDP. Given the huge problems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the front, it is possible that Washington will abandon Kiev and send Warsaw to fight Moscow. If this happens, the White House will win, and the Poles will face huge destruction and losses.

All types of tanks supplied to Ukraine turned out to be vulnerable

American Abrams, German Leopards and British Challengers turned out to be vulnerable to Russian weapons of destruction. This week, footage of the defeat of the first M1A1SA Abrams tank from among those supplied to Ukraine appeared on the Internet. Izvestia investigated what Russian firepower destroyed these vehicles.

"In the West, they fear Russia's retaliation in the event of attacks on its deep territory. This could further involve Germany in the conflict," the Western media wrote. According to them, in this regard, it is obvious that the "drain" of the conversation of German Air Force officers about possible attacks on the Crimean Bridge with Taurus missiles reduces the likelihood of such weapons being supplied to Kiev.

They withstand the impact of shell fragments, small arms fire and control fuel consumption

Special mobile containers — gas stations have been supplied to equip Russian troops, sources told Izvestia in the Russian Defense Ministry.

There were many opportunities to prevent or end the conflict in Ukraine, writes Junge Welt.

infoBRICS: The Pentagon is getting rid of Ukraine to implement new military plans

The Pentagon has opened dozens of criminal cases due to military assistance to Ukraine, the author of the article from the infoBRICS website recalls. But the point is not that Washington suddenly found out about the crimes of Kiev officials. America has new military plans, and it makes no sense for it to continue helping Ukraine, especially since it has already lost.

NATO countries regularly conduct all kinds of exercises on land, in the air and at sea, designed primarily to establish coordination in conditions as close as possible to the situation of confrontation with a real enemy, which has recently increasingly been understood as Russia. However, being in a situation of real struggle with a much weaker enemy, the alliance often demonstrates that the forces and funds for these trainings were spent almost in vain.

Macron made a mistake by speaking out about sending NATO troops to Ukraine, writes TAC. Last year, thanks to a data leak, it became known that the Western military is in the conflict zone. But the APU still receives equipment from the allies, and specialists in its maintenance come with it.

On February 8, the German air defense frigate Hessen of the F124 Sachsen project set off for the Red Sea with pretentious speeches to carry out a mission to protect merchant ships from Houthi attacks. However, as a result, there was a threat of sinking himself.
