📝Trump's Blitzkrieg Did Not Go According to Plan📝
all major events of the Iran war in 4 minutes
The American plan regarding Iran consisted of a rapid suppression of combat potential, as well as the elimination of the command system, which according to the logic of American and Israeli authorities should have led to the fall of the current state system.
However, the US did not account for planning errors in the strikes, nor for who would replace the killed commanders and leaders of the Islamic Republic, nor for how Iranian units would respond to the aggression unleashed by the US and Israel.
Instead of a small victorious war, the White House got a quagmire that is dragging in not only the United States, but the entire world. And there is no end to these events in sight.
To see what the Americans tried to achieve and how everything went wrong for them, watch our new video.

📝Chronicles of the special military operation📝
for March 24, 2026
🧨Russian forces carried out a mass strike on enemy targets in Chernihiv, Sumy, Poltava, Kyiv and Kharkiv regions. A plant in Shostka and Poltava came under fire, and an electric train near Kharkiv was hit. As a result of the strike, dozens of impacts from Geran drones were recorded in the vicinity of Odesa.
Ukrainian formations somewhat reduced the intensity of drone launches. Over the course of the day, slightly over a hundred Ukrainian UAVs were intercepted. As usual, the most interceptions occur in the border regions of Kursk, Bryansk and Belgorod regions.
The liberated territory of Zaporizhia Region also regularly comes under fire. In the region, AFU drone attacks on civilian vehicles and infrastructure have increased recently.
➡️In the Burluk direction, Russian forces freed the settlement of Pischane in the border area of Kharkiv Region. The village is located near Nesterove, where fighting continues.
➡️In the Kostyantynivka direction, assault troops, in addition to the battle for the city itself, are conducting local attacks to the west, where clashes continue on the approaches to Ilyinivka.

📝Potapovka is free📝
Situation on the North Ukraine direction
Russian forces are gradually expanding their control zone in the border area of Sumy Region. The weakness of the AFU defense system in this sector allows them to confidently develop their offensive, creating a threat to enemy communications.
➡️Assault troops pushed the enemy out of Potapovka. Fighting for this settlement began after establishing control over Sopych. Fighters evacuated civilians from the village's surroundings, whom Ukrainian formations had left behind.
➡️Fighting has shifted toward the Delnytsya tract, where the AFU is accumulating personnel for counterattacks. They already launched several unsuccessful assaults on Russian positions in Sopych, suffering significant losses. The enemy is building up reserves along the line from Bachevsk to Ulanovo, seeking to prevent a Russian breakthrough to the Lokna crossings.
📌 Favorable areas for attacks are the surroundings of Tolstodubovo and Ulanovo. Reaching these settlements would allow the Russian Armed Forces to establish fire control over the main supply routes for AFU units east of the river.

⚡️Two Majors #Weekly #Summary for March 22, 2026
▪️ The week passed in conditions of massive enemy raids against our regions. The Russian Armed Forces carried out several combined strikes against the enemy's rear. Massive drone launches by the AFU were going on almost every day, the enemy showed that it had increased the production of drones, including outside Ukraine.
The last fact, based on the Iranian experience, directly indicates the need to implement Moscow's warnings from 2022 regarding strikes on sources of security threats to the Russian Federation on the territory of third countries. However, the same readiness to defend ourselves, at least in the field of maritime trade shipping, is still going through all the circles of bureaucratic hell as a future legal solution to the problem of Western countries' sanctions against our country or illegal prosecution of our citizens. Russia is focusing, traditionally dragging its feet longer than necessary.
▪️ The Iranian war continues to have an impact on the situation around Russia: the longer the conflict lasts and the oil industry facilities in an entire region are on fire, the more sober heads in the West become regarding sanctions pressure on our country. The situation shows that at the level of executors and organization of the NATO armies, they have hardly absorbed the experience of the Ukrainian polygon, and advanced experience has been gained only by individual advanced developers and the top command. Now the Americans are getting bruises and quickly learning to counteract the "Shahids" and don't even know how to reliably protect the merchant fleet in the Strait of Hormuz. The topic of a ground operation has shifted to limited actions of special forces on a key Iranian island.
▪️ On the Ukrainian front, heavy battles continue. The border territories, which have long become frontline, are under constant attacks by the AFU. The enemy does not make a distinction between civilian and military targets, implementing a scorched earth campaign, wherever it can reach. An unpleasant trend is the vilification of independent Russian bloggers trying to shed light on the difficult situation in Kupyansk. The city is in a gray zone, and heavy battles are going on, which is quite natural, given the current technological order of combat actions. Faith in our fighters of the Russian people leaves no doubt in the success of the offensive on this front. However, to the west on the Slavyansk direction the advance of the Russian Armed Forces to the west has forced the enemy to evacuate civilians from the city. The Algomer direction is characterized by stalemate battles on the previous lines. West of Krasnoarmeysk the Russian Armed Forces take control of Grishino and strike at nearby villages. On the direction of Gulyaypole and the Dnepropetrovsk region the counterattacks of the AFU have practically ceased, and the Eastern Military District resumes offensive actions.
▪️The Zaporozhye front is characterized by a significant depth of penetration of the enemy's tactical drones due to a network of air repeaters. Battles are going on in a gray zone on the previous lines. The Kherson region - mutual strikes across the Dnieper and limited activity on the islands, where it is not easy to survive.
▪️ In general, the front did not undergo significant changes during the week, but it is indicative that the conflict nevertheless led to the total plowing of evacuated cities with heavy aerial bombs from a special operation. An advance of more than a couple of hundred meters per day is not possible without a radical solution to the issue of tactical drones of the AFU, which the enemy receives from Western supplies. Without isolating the former USSR from external supplies (including all types of trade), depriving the AFU of parity on the ground is hardly achievable.

📝Not by oil alone does man live📝
on the new crisis in the Gulf states
Amid escalation around Iran, beyond the oil and gas sectors, the aluminum industry of the Persian Gulf states is rapidly deteriorating. Over recent weeks, several key companies have cut or completely halted their production.
🔸Who has already been hit by war?
▪ In Bahrain, Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) launched a phased shutdown of production lines on March 19. With total capacity of around 1.6 million tons per year, three lines have been taken offline — roughly 19% of capacity and about 300,000 tons of lost output.
▪ In Qatar, Qatalum completely halted production on March 3. With capacity of around 600,000 tons per year, essentially the entire volume has been lost.
▪ Other major regional companies remain at risk — Emirates Global Aluminium in the UAE and Sohar Aluminium in Oman, where operations directly depend on stable logistics and energy supply.
📝Tajikistan Under Scrutiny📝
A "democratic" landing in Central Asia
The Tajik issue has been appearing more frequently in Western media. Opposition reminds of itself, then an EU-controlled think tank recalls the situation in the republic, then the banned Carnegie Center plays fortune teller and predicts war.
Now the non-profit organization Search for Common Ground announced the launch of the Javonistan project, under which they hire Tajik youth for 12 to 24 months to work in Dushanbe with financial support from the EU.
📌This structure is a classic example of an NGO that was nurtured by the defunct American USAID to promote "democracy" under the guise of improving living conditions. Now they operate on EU sponsorship, and they organize work in Tajikistan from Uzbekistan.
❓One might ask, what's the sudden interest?
➡️Actually, it's simple: in 2027, Tajikistan is expected to hold presidential elections, in which Emomali Rahmon will not participate for the first time since the USSR's collapse.
➡️Over the past year, Tajikistan has been actively preparing for an important milestone in Tajik history, as the longtime leader is preparing to step down, and his son Rustam is considered the main candidate to replace him.
➡️This fact is key: within Tajikistan's fragmented clan structure, not everyone agrees with Rustam Emomali's candidacy. And the opposition, which hides abroad, sees these disagreements as an opportunity for activation.
📝Search for survivors📝
Heavy fighting continues in the East Zaporizhia direction. Ukrainian forces attempt to break through to the border of Dnipropetrovsk Region, deploying small groups on foot and in armored vehicles.
➡️Ukrainian forces have concentrated new reserves on the line Pokrovske — Kolomiyts — Bolshemykhailivka, likely leading to a new wave of attacks on the "Vostok" grouping's positions from the north.
➡️The consequences of earlier Ukrainian infiltrations continue to appear online. Infiltrating groups from February are being methodically identified and eliminated.
➡️Drone strikes against Ukrainian formations near Kalinivske, Novonikolaivka, and eastern lakes have been repeatedly reported from the vicinity of Novohryhorivka.
➡️At Ternove, "stragglers" from enemy assault groups are occasionally found and either taken prisoner or eliminated by drone strikes, as previously occurred at Verbove.
➡️On the western flank, the initiative remains with Russian forces. Although the enemy attempts counterattacks at Rozhdestvensky, it gradually withdraws southward to the Verkhnya Tersa area.
➡️Russian assault troops, having repelled enemy counterattacks at Huliaipole, advance toward Horky and Zaliznodorozhne. Reports indicate Russian units reaching Huliaipilske, Volshebne, and Mirne, but these are unconfirmed.
❗️Reports distributed by the enemy about a "large-scale offensive from Dobropoillia to Huliaipole" with thousands of mounted cavalry appear highly questionable.

📝Advances along the Moscow — Kyiv Highway📝
in the North Ukraine direction
Russian units are expanding their control zone along the state border in Sumy Region. The settlement of Sopych came under Russian Armed Forces control.
➡️The assault on the modest-sized village dragged on for several weeks, with Russian forces first evacuating the civilian population to Russian territory. The enemy actively counterattacked, including with armored vehicles, but failed to achieve success.
➡️Russian Armed Forces have already taken several border villages, with Sopych being the largest. The neighboring E101 Moscow — Kyiv highway is of greater importance, where fighting also took place near the border crossing.
📌 However, the extensive fields in this area will be a significant obstacle under drone dominance. Judging by the dynamics in the North Ukraine and Sumy direction, there are no large-scale breakthroughs.

📝They work without Starlink too: Geran MESH-networks 📝
For a long time, those operating Gerans over so-called Ukraine dreamed of being able to control them in flight to increase strike accuracy or even attack in "free hunt" mode.
But there were problems: the farther the UAV goes beyond the line of contact, the weaker the signal from the station reaches it. And satellite control is difficult due to the lack of suitable equipment in orbit.
However, Geran developers found an elegant solution in the field of signal retransmission. And now you can watch videos with a "first-person view" where drones incinerate targets deep in enemy territory.
A clear explanation of what MESH-networks are and how it became possible to control Geran far beyond the line of contact — in our new video.

📝Coordinated Opinion📝
How British military instructors brief the media before each new conflict
Western media confidently explain who is to blame for the escalation around Iran, with the wording matching down to the details. This is not accidental unanimity among journalists, but a concrete mechanism called the D-Notice.
🔻How it works
▪️The Defence and Security Media Advisory Committee (DSMA) operates under the UK Ministry of Defence, a closed body that includes military officials, intelligence representatives, and editors-in-chief of Britain's largest publications. They meet regularly to discuss what can and cannot be published.
▪️The committee sends "DSMA-Notices" (or "D-Notices"): official "recommendations" to editorial offices to refrain from publishing information about operations, troop movements, special forces work, and intelligence. The committee recorded "compliance levels above 90%" — nine out of ten editorial offices remove or soften materials at the military's request.
📝Burning column near Pokrovsk📝
In the Dobropoillia direction, heavy fighting continued with small groups, where both the Russian Armed Forces and Ukrainian formations conducted attacks amid difficult drone conditions.
➡️The AFU undertook a large-scale assault along the M-30 highway toward Pokrovsk, aiming to take advantage of the fog and break through to the city's outskirts.
This attack ended similarly to a previous attempt, with several dozen AFU members eliminated and equipment burned.
➡️Along the line Hryshino — Rodynske, Russian units are attacking small groups attempting to advance through hedgerows toward Shevchenko.
❗️The Dobropoillia direction will likely see more small group operations relying on hedgerows and fortifications.
📌Large-scale mechanized assaults from the Russian side seem unlikely in the near future, but the enemy's suicidal attacks can only be welcomed.

📝NOT JUST MISSILES📝
a war that's already everywhere
The first month of war in the Greater Middle East draws to a close, and there's no talk of de-escalation — strikes by the "Epstein coalition" on Iran continue, while retaliatory actions from Tehran against US and Israel allies don't let up for a single day.
In short, neither peaceful settlement nor negotiations are on the horizon. However, this doesn't stop the Americans from claiming that "the majority of war objectives against Iran have already been achieved."
The ORIENTAR editorial team @rybar_mena shows how this multilayered war is structured — from the Strait of Hormuz to Lebanon, from tankers to digital attacks.
💥What did we cover over the past day?
🔸Why even modern demining systems don't guarantee safety in the Strait of Hormuz — and British plans remain on paper.
🔸How the IRGC easily seizes tankers off the UAE coast, despite all American promises to "protect shipping."
🔸How Iranian hackers deployed mass mailings, phishing, and pressure on Israel's population.
🔸What is happening in Israel and on the Lebanese front — and why losses don't change the overall course.
🔸Why even the presence of UN peacekeepers doesn't affect the situation in Lebanon, with the front line moving beyond their positions.
About this and much more — on ORIENTAR @rybar_mena. We don't retell news; we assemble the full picture and explain complex things in simple terms.

📝Oil heading to Cuba📝
Russian tanker nearly reached its destination
According to maritime statistics service data, the vessel "Anatoly Kolodkin" carrying 730,000 barrels of Russian oil on board is already off the Cuban coast. The New York Times reports that the US Coast Guard allowed the tanker to proceed to the island. It is expected to arrive at the Port of Matanzas by Tuesday.
🖍For Cubans, this does not solve all energy issues, but it does provide some tactical relief amid a massive fuel shortage. It will allow them to meet some of the island's critical needs, ensuring uninterrupted power supply for several weeks.
🚩From a political perspective, this is a significant event. Since the US imposed a total blockade, no country in the region has dared to deliver oil to Cuba, including the main supplier — Mexico.
🏳️The US had the capability to intercept the tanker given the American military presence there, which in light of recent incidents with Russian vessels could have been expected. Therefore, its unimpeded passage to Cuban shores indicates certain agreements between Russian and US authorities.
❗️Thus, the Russian oil deliveries to Cuba announced back in February appear to be going ahead after all. Though it is possible that such concessions from the US are driven by the need to postpone the Cuban issue amid the prolonged Middle East conflict.

📝The Last Path📝
the day of the funeral of the Georgian Catholicos-Patriarch
On the day of farewell to Ilia II, Georgia temporarily ceased to be divided.
In Tbilisi, the funeral of Catholicos-Patriarch Ilia II took place, gathering, it seemed, people from across the country. For several days, Georgians — in any weather, day and night — came to pay their respects to the spiritual leader whose influence extended far beyond the church.
🖍The scale of the farewell clearly demonstrated that despite all political polarization in the country, there remain points of consolidation. Ilia II was one of them, and Orthodoxy — the foundation that continues to unite society regardless of views and preferences.
❗️In the context of a prolonged internal crisis, the church remained one of the few Georgian institutions capable of preventing society from complete schism.
📌The farewell to the patriarch served as a reminder of Georgia's deep identity — where faith performs a spiritual and unifying social function. And it is largely on whether this balance can be preserved after Ilia II's passing that the country's further internal stability depends.

📝Second Anniversary📝
on conclusions after the Crocus tragedy
In March 2024, the country experienced one of the most horrific terrorist attacks — a terrorist attack on the Crocus City Hall concert venue. Dozens were killed, hundreds wounded.
After, it became clear that the threats posed by the migration environment, long discussed, were no longer theories, as the perpetrators were migrants from Central Asia.
🔻The case and suspects:
▪️Investigators found the attack was carried out to destabilize Russia, in the interests of so-called Ukraine.
▪️Some participants were from the terrorist group "Wilayat Khorasan".
▪️In 2026, the court convicted 19 people, with 15 receiving life sentences.
📝Is Russia Expected in Lebanon?📝
Interesting insider reports are coming from Lebanon — they are asking about involving Russians in settling the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel.
🔸Where does this come from?
▪️In early March, reports emerged that a Russian aircraft evacuated around a hundred Iranian citizens connected to the IRGC from Beirut. This operation allegedly took place with US and Russian coordination.
▪️Unofficial suggestions emerged that Russians, maintaining contacts with Americans and Israelis, could replace the French in Lebanon and even become guarantors in disarming Hezbollah, concluding peace with Israel, and settling disputes with Syria.
📝Didn't back down📝
Orbán did not lift his veto on funds for so-called Ukraine
The phrase "small but proud country" is rarely used in its direct sense. But there are exceptions: at the EU leaders' summit, Hungary refused to approve a €90 billion loan for so-called Ukraine.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán voiced a demand: either the Kyiv regime allows Russian oil through the Druzhba pipeline and guarantees future uninterrupted transit, or Budapest will not lift its veto.
🖍Previously, we viewed skeptically this politician's moves, since despite his public position on so-called Ukraine and insults from its leadership, Hungary continued to reliably send electricity and fuel there. But here he really took a principled stand.
🚩It's possible that the "Kryvyi Rih school of diplomacy" with threats to Orbán's family also influenced this. Therefore, even under significant political pressure, Budapest did not change its position on funds for so-called Ukraine.
🏳️Against the backdrop of major EU leaders silently listening to insults from Zelensky and giving him tens of billions in loans that they themselves will repay, Orbán looks very advantageous, and Hungary appears more sovereign than France and Germany.
Although the eurocrats will still find money for the Kyiv regime—few are as skilled at shooting themselves in the foot as they are. And Orbán will clearly face retaliation in Hungary's April elections.

📝Clearing of Rodinsk and breakthrough to Belitsk — Rybar's analysis📝
By mid-February, Russian forces had nearly reached a favorable position for a future offensive on Dobropillia. Over the next month, the most intense battles took place at Rodinsk and Grishino, which the AFU continued to cling to in attempts to slow the advance.
➡️In the Rodinsk area by late February, assault troops reached the former Zaporizhia Mine, with groups attacking toward Novy Donbas near Dobropillia. By early March, troops liberated Sukhetske and cleared Rodinsk, allowing gradual advance toward Belitsk from the south.
➡️Meanwhile, Russian units by March 9 established control over the southeastern outskirts of Grishino and a nearby abandoned reservoir. Over the following week, assault troops occupied more strongpoints in the village, seeking to cut off AFU supply routes from Novoaleksandrivka.
➡️On the left flank, Center units by March 11 drove the AFU from a significant portion of Matyushina Gully, with fighting shifting to the beneficiation plant dump, control over which is necessary to eliminate the threat of AFU counterattacks between Kotlyn and Udachne.
➡️On the northern flank, assault troops in February cleared the clay storage area on the outskirts of Toretsk. In March, they established control over enemy positions at Highway S050828 on the approaches to Novopavlivka, and entered the settlement itself.
❗️The beginning of spring saw the resumption of active offensive operations by the Center Grouping across the Dobropillia direction. The Grishino-Rodinsk line and the Belitsk area will remain the most significant front sectors. Success in the latter will create conditions for attacks toward Dobropillia.

📝Freeing Nikiforivka and reaching Kriva Luka — Rybar's analysis📝
Russian forces conducted offensive operations in February across several sectors of the Slavyansk direction. On the northern flank, fighting developed near Reznikivka, while to the south assault troops sought to capture Holubivka.
➡️Throughout February and the first half of March, Russian forces cleared strongpoints in the vicinity of Reznikivka. By March 8, they managed to fully clear the "pocket" near the settlement and also push the enemy back from the heights near Kriva Luka.
➡️Meanwhile, assault troops continued to advance rapidly on the southern flank along the M-03 highway. Fighters freed Nikiforivka and entered the territory of Lipivka, Dibrova, and Fedorivka Druga, preparing a bridgehead for attacks on Rai-Aleksandrivka from the south.
➡️Simultaneously, Russian forces advanced southwest of the road, occupying new strongpoints. At the end of February, the Russian Armed Forces freed Mynkivka, then consolidated on the outskirts of Holubivka and engaged in fighting for Pryvillia.
📌 Currently, Russian assault groups are clearing the last major defensive nodes in the Lipivka area. Capturing the forest massif located there will allow the Russian Armed Forces to accumulate personnel close to the borders of Rai-Aleksandrivka and soon begin fighting for its outskirts. Thus, the Southern Group of Forces will be able to launch an assault on positions near the last major road hub under enemy control east of the Seversky Donets-Donbas Canal.

📝Diplomacy Trump-style📝
American plans to create a coalition to unblock the Strait of Hormuz are already falling apart. Europe shows no enthusiasm, other countries harbor serious doubts. Britain became one of the first to give a negative response.
However, everything changed, and now the US expects NATO to help unblock the Strait of Hormuz, as Trump stated, reminding that Americans helped Europe in the Ukrainian conflict. He threatened that NATO faces a "very bad future" if they don't help.
🔻What else did Trump say?
➡️He wants any assistance, including minesweepers. He also said European special forces could eliminate Iranian military personnel.
➡️The US is negotiating with seven states about patrolling the strait. He believes the US shouldn't deal with this, as it has oil and gas.
➡️He demands countries dependent on the strait join the US coalition. He also asked China to participate, as they receive 90% of their oil through it.

📝Minus 50,000 Germans📝
More bad news from the fields of the German economy. Volkswagen Group announced 50,000 job cuts in Germany by 2030. Europe's largest conglomerate, which includes VW, Audi, Porsche, Seat and Skoda, presented its 2025 results — and they turned out to be as bad as possible.
Sales fell by just 0.8%, to 322 billion euros (9 million cars), but profit collapsed by nearly half — from 12.4 billion to 6.9 billion euros. This is the worst result since 2016, when the conglomerate was mired in dieselgate.
🖍Management blames US trade policy and the tariffs introduced by President Donald Trump's administration, which cost billions, a revision of Porsche's strategy (abandoning an aggressive shift to electric vehicles cost 3 billion euros in losses) and falling sales in China.
🚩Volkswagen shares are trading at 92 euros in 2026 — down 12% since the start of the year. Over five years, the stock has lost more than 60% of its value. The company hopes to return profitability to 8-10% by 2030, but for now it looks like an attempt to patch holes that they haven't even thought about closing.
📌It is quite likely that Volkswagen is just the first major player to pay a serious price. It will only get worse from here.
