This morning’s GSR. Eight minutes of your time to be well informed as to what is going on and where from the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine.
First things first – we’ve all know doubt heard of the IGLA ManPads but how many of us actually know what it stands for? That is aside from taking down SU-25’s and Ka-52’s!
So I know what SCUBA stands for and know we’ll know what an Igla MANPADS [short range man-portable air-defence system].” stands for.
Over the last couple of days support for Ukraine and our frontline heroes has gone up and been solidified by the despicable and deplorable actions of the Russian troops.
I’ve said it in here many times as have many others – war is terrible as is death. Ukraine would negotiate their way out of this horrific war if that were possible but unfortunately it’s not.
So you invade, but you’re very far from welcome and people will unite, defend and defeat you and send you home.
In the next day or so we will see how the movement of grain goes – hopefully smoothly but until then we must wait and hope for the best.
36,000 Ukrainians returned to Ukraine in the last 24 hours. In occupied territories Ukrainians are doing their best to thwart the Russian efforts at every turn which is proving successful. If you slow them down that is positive – stopping them will be hard but slowing down every plan they have gives our heroes more time to liberate these villages and towns.
Russia are still trying to mount their offensive manoeuvres but they are proving IMO at least less and less successful.
As always thoughts are with our heroes on the frontline!
