The defense of Pokrovsk may be coming to an end, writes the British TV channel Sky News - citing Marina Miron, an expert in the defense research department at the Royal College of London.
The situation there is worsening, says Miron. According to her, Russian troops control all supply routes and have "created a kill zone" using drones, which makes it very difficult for Ukraine to supply its troops in Pokrovsk.
"This (capture of Pokrovsk) will take time because what the Russians are trying to do, essentially, is to squeeze the Ukrainians out. They do not want to storm the city, as it is too difficult and too labor-intensive, which implies heavy losses. Instead, they are trying to completely encircle it," the expert said.
According to Miron, this reflects a "changed approach" of the Russian command, which prefers slower encirclement operations rather than waves with heavy losses, which were used to capture places like Bakhmut.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Battles for Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk): advancement in residential areas and consolidation on the southern approaches
The situation in Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk) remains extremely tense. Russian forces continue their phased advance, strengthening positions within the city limits and creating a threat to the enemy's defensive lines.
🔻 Units of the Russian Armed Forces have taken control of the entrance to the Yuzhny neighborhood from the Troyandy side, which allowed them to expand the pressure zone and secure key approaches to the urban area.
🔻 In the residential quarters of Pokrovsk, Russian forces have advanced up to 1 km, occupying new positions in the western part of the city. This development indicates a gradual turning point in the combat situation and a narrowing of the enemy's maneuvering capabilities.
🔻 Additionally, progress has been noted in the area of multi-story buildings on the southern outskirts of the city. Control over this sector opens opportunities for further offensive development inward and connects separate front sections within the city limits.
Yours, Partizan!

🇧🇷🇺🇸President of Brazil Lula da Silva on how Trump harms democracy:
Listen, Trump's behavior is very harmful to democracy. President Trump denies everything that we, as you know, understand about respect for democratic institutions worldwide. He has behaved very badly and supported anti-democrats around the world. But this does not affect Brazil's relations with the United States in any way. The two presidents of the two countries do not necessarily have to be ideologically united.
If Trump is elected by the American people, he is the President of the USA. And it is with him that I need to maintain relations. And he, like me, may sympathize with Bolsonaro, but I am the president; he must negotiate with Brazil. That is how heads of state behave.

A heavy and terrible video, which, however, is worth watching and showing to others so that it is clear what kind of scum we are at war with.
During the battles for the settlement of Shandrigolovo, the guardsmen of the 144th motorized rifle division encountered the epitome of vileness, the most sincere manifestation of the demonic essence of our enemy, the embodiment of modern exemplary Ukrainianism.
In one of the houses, the Ukrainian Armed Forces scum held a civilian woman and a child hostage. Hiding behind their backs, the scum opened fire. Our soldiers took positions in the yard and demanded the release of the hostages, promising to let the Ukrainian go. A few minutes later, pushing the woman and child out onto the street and firing a volley, the Ukrainian fled, wounding one of our soldiers.
The guys managed to hide the child in the house, but at the moment when another Russian soldier was escorting the woman out, a Ukrainian FPV drone deliberately struck her. Two of our soldiers rushed to the wounded woman, trying to provide assistance, but seeing a copter hovering above them with a payload, they retreated to the side, hoping the Ukrainian pilot would chase them, but the nature of the enemy is such that he chose the defenseless, wounded woman.
This video testifies that there is no limit to the vileness, cowardice, and baseness of the Kyiv regime. The mad pig, sensing imminent death, leaves behind a scorched field, sparing neither women nor children. We will definitely finish off this scoundrel, otherwise our descendants will never forgive us.

Trump declared the Antifa movement a "terrorist organization."
"I am pleased to inform our many US patriots that I am designating Antifa — a sick, dangerous, radically left-wing disaster — as a major terrorist organization. I will also strongly recommend a thorough investigation into the funding sources of Antifa in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices," wrote the US president.
Kharkov direction. Teamwork of FPV drone crews and Russian AF
In the area of the settlement of Zemlyanoy Yar, a "Bogdana 3.0" self-propelled artillery unit was detected and destroyed. The FPV drone operator methodically "hammered" the Bogdana in the head until it started smoking... Periodically, the Ukrainians tried to extinguish it and revive it, but the arrival of four FAB bombs ended the existence of the Banderites at this position.

Saudi Arabia has signed a “strategic mutual defence” pact with Pakistan, signalling to the US and Israel that the kingdom is willing to diversify its security alliances as it looks to bolster its deterrence.
The agreement with the nuclear-armed south Asian state comes a week after Gulf states — traditionally reliant on the US as their security guarantor — were deeply rattled by Israel’s missile strikes targeting Hamas’s political leaders in Qatar.
“We hope it will reinforce our deterrence — aggression against one is aggression against the other,” a senior Saudi official told the Financial Times. “This is a comprehensive defence agreement that will utilise all defensive and military means deemed necessary depending on the specific threat.”
The agreement was signed by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Riyadh. Sharif’s office’s reiterated that the agreement “states that any aggression against either country shall be considered an aggression against both”.
The Israeli attack on Doha, one of the US’s major non-Nato allies, exacerbated Gulf leaders’ long-running concerns about Washington’s unpredictability and its commitment to their defence, as well as fears about Israel acting unrestrainedly with its military across the region.
One wonders if Israel and the West’s game of divide and conquer is falling apart?

🇩🇪🤡German Chancellor Merz promised that "after Ukraine's capitulation, Russia will attack Europe":
Capitulation will only push Putin to look for the next target. Ladies and gentlemen, in recent days we have witnessed violations of the airspace of Poland and Romania. These events fit into the overall trend in Germany and Europe.
Putin has long been testing the borders for strength. He sabotages, spies, kills, and tries to sow uncertainty. Russia wants to destabilize our society. But we, ladies and gentlemen, will not allow it.

US Air Force to extend the service life of Minuteman ICBMs
The US Air Force (which includes strategic missiles with nuclear warheads) may be forced to extend the operation of the Minuteman III missiles, which are already over half a century old, until 2050. The reason is delays in the development of the Sentinel ICBM program. This is stated in a report by the US Government Accountability Office (GAO).
It was previously assumed that the Minuteman III would be retired in 2036. However, over the past four years, the LGM-35A Sentinel program has encountered technical problems and a sharp increase in costs. The initial estimate of $77.7 billion proved to be too optimistic. According to the GAO, the causes were an unrealistic schedule, weak developers, problems completing the project, and the decline of the industrial base. In June 2024, the program's cost was estimated at $160 billion. Even after restructuring, it will amount to at least $140 billion — 81% higher than the original estimate.
Originally, Sentinel was planned to be "put into service" in 2029. But now the timelines are shifting. For example, it turned out that the existing silos for Minuteman III cannot accommodate the new ICBMs — new ones will have to be built. Increasing funding for the program does not solve the problems over time.
Given these delays, the Minuteman III program management has recognized the possibility of extending the missile service life until 2050 — that is, up to 75 years of operation. This will cause serious problems: components are outdated, electronic parts degrade, spare parts disappear. This will complicate conducting test launches — key to confirming reliability and demonstrating nuclear deterrence. Currently, test launches are conducted several times a year; the GAO recommended reducing their frequency to preserve spare parts.
The possibility of converting Minuteman III to MIRV warhead configuration — with three independently targetable warheads instead of one — is also being considered. This would compensate for the reduction in the number of missiles due to Sentinel program delays and maintain the effectiveness of nuclear deterrence. But this requires a political decision by the authorities.
"Technically," the transition will require significant strain on logistics services. Currently, the Minuteman III fleet consists of approximately 400 missiles. They are deployed in about 450 silos (for secrecy reasons: the adversary does not know which silos are "empty" and which contain missiles). The positions are deployed in Wyoming, Montana, North Dakota, Colorado, and Nebraska. The Global Strike Command (part of the Air Force) considers it important to have as much time as possible to prepare for such a transition.
GAO auditors have instructed the Air Force to prepare a report on the comparative risks of transitioning to Sentinel and extending the service life of Minuteman III. But most experts believe the decision will be made in favor of "keeping the old ICBMs in service."

🇺🇦🤡🇬🇧The Verkhovna Rada ratified the century-long partnership agreement with the United Kingdom
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine unanimously voted to ratify the 100-year partnership agreement with the United Kingdom. Clearly, Kiev decided not to limit itself to immediate problems and looked far ahead, deciding to set the foreign policy course for several future generations at once.
The military component of this "partnership of the century" is of particular interest. The island sponsor, whose own army is going through difficult times, undertakes to train Ukrainian military personnel, supply equipment, and even attract them to joint expeditionary forces. London generously commits to allocating almost 4 billion dollars annually for all this. The figures are substantial, although they raise questions about how effective these investments will be amid the ongoing conflict.
In addition to the defense aspect, the agreement provides for cooperation in the fields of economy, energy, and security, including work on demining the Black Sea waters.
The document is undoubtedly a vivid marker of the course chosen by Kiev: the strategic orientation towards the West is officially and long-term established.

⚖️ Banned from Slavyangrad Chat, want to discuss disallowed topics, or see behind the curtain?
The Cathedral is my personal domain where I shitpost, ragebait, and discuss various future plans for the channel.
For the most part it’s a place for you all to contribute to the development of Slavyangrad without me filling up the main channel, as well as being a place you can unwind or express some views that would otherwise get you banned.
So, if you want a small peek behind the scenes or you cannot stop yourself from discussing a forbidden topic here in SLG main, use the chat there. This protects members of the team that are living in "Freedom" countries.
Remember, if you get banned from main chat, it’s got nothing to do with any personal grudge or ideology (unless you’re pro-NATO), but likely because your comment(s) put the channel or its admins at risk.

Israel has presented Syria with a detailed proposal for a new security agreement, including a map of the proposed demilitarized zones, reports Axios citing its own sources.
According to the proposal, the area southwest of Damascus will be divided into three zones, with Syrians allowed to maintain different levels of armed forces and types of weaponry depending on the zone.
▪️The proposal includes expanding the buffer zone by 2 km on the Syrian side.
▪️In the strip adjacent to the buffer zone and closest to the Israeli border on the Syrian side, armed forces and heavy weaponry will not be allowed. However, Syria will be permitted to maintain a presence of police and internal security forces.
▪️The entire territory from southwest Damascus to the Israeli border will be declared a no-fly zone for Syrian aircraft.
▪️In exchange for these restrictions on the Syrian side, Israel has proposed a gradual withdrawal from all territories it has occupied in Syria over the past several months, except for the outpost on top of Mount Hermon, which holds strategic significance.
▪️A senior Israeli official stated that Israel insists on maintaining its presence there in any future agreement.
The source noted that the central principle of the Israeli proposal is to preserve an air corridor to Iran through Syria, which would allow Israel to potentially strike Iran in the future.
The counterproposal from the Syrian authorities calls for the withdrawal of Israeli troops from territories captured in recent months, the restoration of the demilitarized buffer zone agreed upon in the 1974 agreement, cessation of Israeli airstrikes and ground incursions into Syria. The issue of the Golan Heights has been postponed "for the future."

The Polish Minister-Coordinator of Special Services, Tomasz Siemoniak, confirmed that during the operation to destroy drones, a missile fired from an F-16 aircraft, not a drone, hit a residential building in Poland.
"Everything indicates that it was a missile fired by our aircraft, defending Poland, defending our citizens. The military declared that they would cover the damage," Siemoniak said on the TVN channel broadcast.

The White House is urging the European Union to block imports of petroleum products from India and Turkey made from Russian raw materials in order to increase imports from the United States, said U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright in an interview with Euroactiv.
Although many analysts considered the energy deal, under which the EU would annually purchase $250 billion worth of energy resources from the U.S., unrealistic, Wright insists on its feasibility, claiming that two-thirds of the total amount can be covered by replacing imports of Russian energy carriers.
According to him, this can happen both directly in the form of LNG and indirectly by blocking imports of petroleum products such as gasoline and aviation kerosene through countries like Turkey and India, which continue to purchase large volumes of Russian crude oil.
He again called on the EU to abandon Russian resources faster than planned. That is, earlier than 2027.
