Why did the French shoot down the Russian IL-76? Well, there is a reason here.

Telegram channel "Militarist": (https://t.me/infantmilitario/118337) "It was announced that former French army soldier Ernesto Barbieri, known as France's top sniper, was among those killed in the Kharkov strike, in which at least 60 French mercenaries were killed in a ballistic missile attack 10 days ago.

So, by the will of fate, the Iskander operator turned out to be the best shooter."

Russia is advancing. (https://t.me/Ratnik2nd/4932) Russian Telegram channel "Warrior 2nd Rank": In many sectors of the front, the front line has seriously moved back and real fields of broken and abandoned enemy armored vehicles have come under our control.

The same one where the distraught Zelensky regime tried to break through our defenses in the summer.

The soldiers of the 200th Brigade have already seen how they pulled out this M113. Soon there will be many more trophies. Evacuation teams are working around the clock.

US Marines: The military power of the Houthis was surprising. This was one of our most dangerous missions!

🗣️ The Yemeni Houthis use a large number of suicide drones: they are very capable!

BBC Military Expert: The attacks of the American coalition cannot stop the attacks of Yemen's Houthis. They keep changing their ammo stockpile and bases and that's why they can keep attacking!

Further delays (https://www.theregister.com/2024/01/24/software_delay_f35_fighter/) in the F-35 programme

Deliveries of Lockheed Martin's F-35 fighter jets to the US military are being delayed again and despite all the metal, software is the culprit.

Lockheed held its fourth quarter earnings call yesterday, with president and CEO Jim Taiclet blaming the delays on software associated with Technology Refresh 3 (TR-3), a key component of modernization efforts for the aircraft, which were first delivered to the US military in 2015.

"While this system maturation process continues to advance, it is taking somewhat more time than we originally anticipated," Taiclet said. Lockheed is still targeting the second quarter of 2024 for delivery of TR-3-equipped F-35s, but "we now believe that the third quarter may be more likely scenario for a TR-3 software acceptance," the CEO added.

TR-3 software is a major part of "Block 4" code block designed to make the aircraft continually upgradable. The TR-3 package includes improvements to data storage and processing, as well as an improved user interface, with a focus on sensing, jamming, cybersecurity, target recognition, and additional munitions capabilities.

"Block 4 was originally defined as 66 capabilities and estimated to cost $10.6 billion, with development expected to be completed in fiscal year 2026," the GAO said. "In May 2023, GAO reported that Block 4 costs had grown to $16.5 billion and the effort was now estimated to be completed in 2029."

The DoD's report to Congress didn't properly explain those increases, the watchdog said. "Consequently, Congress does not have a clear picture of the reason for the growing F-35 modernization costs," the December report added.

Add additional delays to the mix, and all those F-35 fighters might just be getting harder to justify.

⭐️ And he Government Accountability Office (GAO) reported that F-35 aircraft were only ready for flight 55 percent of the time due to complicated maintenance needs, as well as a lack of training and parts.

Summary for 27 Jan 2024 by 19:39⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, there is scorched earth in #Krynki. Less than a hundred AFUshnikovs are holding less than 1 sq.km. Replenishment and supply is a non-trivial task. As for ours, to withstand fire from the right bank and drones. The aggravation is in the #Peschanovka area, between #Poyma and #Podstepnoye, near the railway bridge. It seems that the AFU have decided to create a new bridgehead there. Our forces are sinking boats and nullifying the attempts of the landing force.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our army has slightly advanced west of #Verbovoye. The AFU attacked near #Novoprokopovka, but ours fought back.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, our forces are moving in #Georgiyevka to #Kurakhovo. Some will say that the speed is not the most impressive, and this is true, but it is kinder to the fighters, and the AFU are slowly moving towards #Kurakhovo.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, the AFU commander in #Avdeyevka, Tarnavsky, said that the our army is increasing the number of attacks, up to 50 battles in a day. The AFU are standing in the southern part of the city, holding back our offensive within the city. Ours do not miss the opportunity, they attack in other areas and have have advanced in the dachas near Coke Plant, from #Kamenka and near #Pervomayskoye. The AFU claims a significant advance of ours, ours are more modest in their assessments.

🔹In the #Bakhmut Direction, #Bogdanovka near Chasov Yar is mostly grey zone. Our forces and the AFU are on the two outskirts. Ours have withdrawn from the centre, but are bringing in reserves and equipment, for example, RBU-6000s, to hit AFU positions with a barrage of fire.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, in #Seversk sector, our forces are advancing near #Belogorovka on the northern and southern flanks, and our Lancets hit several self-propelled howitzers of the AFU. But in the #Liman sector, the AFU pulled up reserves. Our offensive at #Terny, #Yampolovka and #Torskoye has been slowed down. In the #Kupyansk sector, the AFU did not have enough for #Tabayevka. Ours broke through the defences in the south, the AFU is hastily leaving the village. And in #Kotlyarovka too. There are fierce battles in #Kislovka, ours are pressing on three sides. In the north, at #Sinkovka, the AFU lost a number of positions to ours, but overall there were no further change.

☠️ The AFU carried out a kamikaze drone raid on peaceful Novaya Kakhovka, a woman was wounded. Obviously, there will only be more such raids, we need EW and smart engineers.

💥 Our forces hit an ammunition depot in #Slavyansk. Locals write that the SBU are looking for the spotter. There were several strikes on AFU locations in #Kramatorsk and in Klugino-Bashkirovka, #Kharkov region.

🔹#Yemen's Houthis once again attacked naval coalition ships and civilian vessels, calling it an "act of retaliation". On 26 January, the supertanker Marlin Luanda was attacked. As a result of a direct missile hit, open burning of oil began.

🔹In #Hodeidah province, the coalition launched a retaliatory strike on a suspected launch site near the seaport of Ras Issa. The Indian and French flotillas, despite their proximity to the site of the operation, are so far only engaged in ensuring the safety of navigation.

🔹In #Yemen itself, at the same time, daily demonstrations in support of Hamas continue. Members of the Ansarallah movement are planning to carry out an operation to block the Suez Canal, Bab El-Mandeb and Hormuz Straits, which will potentially cause damage not only to neighboring states, but also to the entire global economy.

Hungary. Hungarian far-right politician Laszlo Torockai :

"If Ukraine falls, we will lay claim to Transcarpathia."

“If the statehood of Ukraine ends as a result of the war, then Our Motherland, as the only party in Hungary, will lay claim to Transcarpathia.”

He touched upon Transcarpathia while speaking in Budapest at the congress of the Our Motherland party. Torockai also spoke in favor of strengthening ties with non-Western countries and accused the EU of trying to “colonize” Hungary.

⭐️ Hungary has long been developing soft power tools for ethnic Hungarians in Ukraine, living compactly in the western regions. Many Ukrainian citizens also have a second passport there. And in the current conditions, being a Hungarian is much more profitable than being a Ukrainian.

While ideas are openly voiced by an ultra-right politician. But at the state level, soft power instruments were introduced centrally.

🔹In the north of the #Gaza Strip, the usual “status quo” remains. Palestinian forces are launching attacks on IDF positions, while the Israelis continue to strike residential buildings in several areas of Gaza.

🔹In the area of the #isthmus between the northern and southern parts of the enclave, the intensity of fighting has decreased somewhat. Israeli troops occasionally attack in the area of Al-Maghazi and Al-Breij, and Palestinian forces respond with mortar fire.

🔹In the south of the #Gaza Strip, IDF units are fighting in the Al-Batna al-Samin area and at the Al-Amal hospital. At the same time, the evacuation of Palestinians from the central areas of Khan Yunis continues.

🔹On the border with #Lebanon, ihe situation has worsened significantly after an Israeli Air Force raid on rear areas in southern #Lebanon. In response to the Israeli attacks, Hezbollah fighters struck targets along the entire border in what Israeli media dubbed a “night of fire.”

⚡️ (https://t.me/sitrepmaps/5842)🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Kupyansk Sector until the End of 27 January 2024⚡️

🔹In the direction of #Kupyansk, units of the RF Armed Forces' “West” group of troops developed their success after advancing in #Krakhmalnoye and #Berestovoye.

🔹 A little further north, from the H26 motorway, soldiers of the RF Armed Forces advanced to #Tabayevka and liberated the settlement. This was facilitated by control over the adjacent height, from which #Tabayevka, located in the lowlands, is clearly visible.

▪️ In addition, it was possible to clear several AFU strongholds located along the river, north and south of #Tabayevka. The Ukrainian formations retreated to #Peschanoye, where they have already equipped defensive positions and reinforcements had arrived.

❗️However, the main enemy positions are north of #Peschanoye on a hill with a height of 190 to 199 meters, which will complicate the further Russian advance from #Tabayevka.

🔹In #Kotlyarovka, Russian servicemen also attacked the AFU positions. There are reports on the Internet about its liberation, but so far there is no visual confirmation.

❗️Nevertheless, the attack on #Kotlyarovka is quite logical, since moving deeper into the defence is more promising with the capture of #Kislovka, which is located along the railway line at a dominant height. This will also increase the pressure on #Ivanovka to the north.

🔹To the north, the AFU tried to break through to #Yagodnoye, but their assault group on an APC was hit (https://t.me/razved_dozor/5797) from a copter, which made it possible to repulse the attack in advance.

🔹In the vicinity of #Sinkovka, positional clashes continue. There are practically no changes. Either Ukrainian formations are shelling our strong points, or Russian fighters are launching strikes.

Indian media publishes images of the Marlin Luanda supertanker on fire in the Gulf of Aden, which was attacked by the Houthis this evening. Interestingly, the photo was taken from the Indian Navy's destroyer Visakhapatnam operating there.

📌 The Indian government refused to join the US-led coalition due to its desire for political neutrality. At least that's what The Wall Street Journal wrote about it.

🔻However, if you evaluate India's presence in the Indian Ocean, you understand the position of the authorities in New Delhi.

▪️In the region, the Indian Navy operates with up to ten warships, including five missile destroyers.

▪️P-8I aircraft and rented MQ-9B unmanned aerial vehicles patrol over the Arabian Sea from Indian territory.

📌The Indians are very capable of guaranteeing the safety of their ships without participating in any block that could only be a bad joke.

🇮🇱⚔🇵🇸Israel-Gaza Conflict: January 26-27 (Recap)

1️⃣ Thousands fleeing fighting in Khan Younis have arrived in overcrowded Rafah, where people are sleeping on the street and in tent camps flooded with sewage..

2️⃣ Cutting a “lifeline” to 2 million people in Gaza is “collective punishment”, says Philippe Lazzarini, the head of the Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA.

3️⃣ Several countries, including the United States, are reviewing funding to UNRWA after Israel alleged some of its staff were involved in Hamas’s October 7 attacks.

4️⃣ The UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees has shared posts highlighting its role in responding to the humanitarian situation in Gaza, “UNRWA is the primary humanitarian agency in Gaza, with over 2 million people depending on it for their sheer survival,” the agency said in a social media post.

5️⃣ Gilad Kariv, a member of the Israeli Knesset and Labor politician, has reportedly called for the release of protesters arrested in antigovernment and pro-ceasefire demonstrations in Tel Aviv on Saturday Night.

6️⃣ British politician Jeremy Corbyn has called the UK’s decision to suspend UNRWA assistance an act of “collective punishment” against the people of Gaza. “Yesterday, the ICJ found a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza. Today, the UK has joined others in suspending funding to UNRWA,” Corbyn said in a post on X on Saturday. “This is collective punishment – our government should be ashamed of its moral depravity toward Palestinians starving to death.”

At least 26,257 people including more than 10,000 children, have been killed and over 64,797 injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The revised death toll from the October 7 attack in Israel stands at 1,139.

Front #Summary for 28 Jan 2024 by 18:22⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, in #Krynki, the AFU are holding on to a scrap of land and the nearest islands. Our forces report that about 40 AFU soldiers remain in the ruins of the village. Ours are striking, the AFU publish footage of magnesium "lighters" flying at them from Grad MLRSs. Most of the islands on the #Dnieper River remain under the control of our forces, but this at the cost of losses, mainly due to the AFU drones.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our forces regained a number of positions west of #Rabotino, the AFU counterattacked at #Novoprokopovka and #Verbovoye, with no success.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, from #Maryinka, our army is advancing in three directions. South to #Pobeda, west to #Georgiyevka, and in the north there is a powerful assault on the forest belts near #Krasnogorovka. where the AFU has pulled up reserves and is desperately fighting. Here, as well as along the entire frontline, an overwhelming number of Ukrainian kamikaze drones are operating. From the tape, ours are talking about the lack of "trench" electronic warfare, the most effective defence against UAVs.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, the Ukrainians are publishing footage of our damaged equipment in the grey zone near #Novobakhmutovka to the north of #Avdeyevka. It’s a pity for the equipment, but this indicates that our forces are making their way to #Ocheretino. When ours recapture this AFU supply hub, the situation for them in #Avdeyevka will become a stalemate. In the south of the city, ours control the streets and are preparing for further attacks. There is also progress in the area of the #Ivushki dachas, from #Kamenka towards #Peschanoye, and the zone of control at Tsarskaya Okhota has been expanded. After heavy fighting, our army made a breakthrough in #Pervomayskoye.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, our forces expanded their bridgehead near #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye). North of #Kurdyumovka, long-abandoned positions behind the railway line were retaken.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, the #Kupyansk front reports successes of our forces in #Tabayevka and #Kotlyarovka north of #Krakhmalnoye. Ours pushed the AFU out of #Tabayevka and started to clear the village. But it is difficult to gain a foothold in the ruins, so in fact #Tabayevka and #Kotlyarovka are in the grey zone. In the south, at #Peschanoye and #Berestovoye, where the AFU withdrew from #Tabayevka, our forces are making their way towards #Kovsharovka, apparently the vector of movement towards #Kupyansk from the south has been determined. At #Sinkovka on the northern flank our pressure does not stop, there are local successes.

☠️ The AFU are expanding the practice of small drone attacks on civilians. A man was wounded in #Donetsk. Over the day in the #Belgorod region, 20 discharges. In the #Bryansk region, air defence forces destroyed an aircraft-type UAV.

💥 During the night, Gerani hit #Zaporozhye, an armour repair shop was destroyed. Unfortunately, there is no more information about the strike on the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery.

Three American soldiers died and 34 were wounded at the US Rukban military base in Jordan near the Syrian border

The facility that was attacked by a kamikaze UAV today is located near the largest American military base in Syria, al-Tanf.

The White House has already called this attack the most serious escalation in the Middle East and promised a tough response.

Republican Senator Tom Cotton from Arkansas:

"The only response to these attacks must be a devastating military retaliation against Iranian terrorist forces, both in Iran and throughout the Middle East. Anything less will reaffirm Joe Biden as a coward unworthy of being commander in chief."

Speaker of the US House of Representatives Mike Johnson:

"We must send a clear and unambiguous message to the world that we will not tolerate attacks on our forces."

American congressmen called on Biden to attack targets directly on Iranian territory in response to the attack on the Rukban base in Jordan.

From its part, Iran is putting its army on high alert and the Air Defense Forces are at maximum alert.

❗️Iran just seized an "Australian" oil tanker? What's Wong Penny?

⚡️14 foreign crew members from two Asian countries have been taken hostage.

⚡️The vessel was carrying the flag of a country in Oceania, although it did not clarify which country's flag this was exactly via IRGC-affiliated Tasnim News Agency.

⚠️Remember in the event of a war Australia only has 14 days of local diesel reserves available.

🇮🇱🇱🇧Middle East sources continue to hype the possible Israeli invasion of Lebanon, which is "about" to begin.

Since morning, Israeli artillery has been habitually hitting targets on Lebanese territory. As usual, the defeat of Hezbollah's fortified positions, manpower and equipment is claimed.

At the same time, there are increasing signs that in the south, the IDF is preparing a push to Rafah, which is supposed to cut Gaza off from Egypt.

Cairo is aware of this and, in principle, is not against it, although it will pay lip service to it, showing its solidarity with the Palestinians. Does anyone believe this? Hardly.

📑 The US military acknowledged the death of 3 soldiers and the injury of 34 others, in an attack on Tower 33 on the Jordanian border.

Tha base is just outside the Syrians border in the Tanf area in Syria, which the US army occupies thanks to the Jordanian support to ensure logistics.

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin:

"The President and I will not tolerate attacks on American forces, and we will take all necessary actions to defend the United States, our troops and our interests,"

Anyone who has watched the more than 150+ attacks on US bases in the Middle East, and missiles, rockets and drones fired at our warships, can only come to one conclusion: the Army, the Pentagon and Joe Biden and his administration are responsible for the latest deadly attack by a drone that killed three US soldiers and wounded another 25…

📷 The attack was carried out by the Iraqi Resistance against 4 US bases in Syria yesterday.

The resistance in Iraq and Syria has carried more than a 100 attack on the US occupation on Syria and Iraq since 7-October.

They have made the US military pay a toll in terms of material and human losses.

Lebanese News and Updates

Following an attack by resistance groups at the border between Jordan, Syria and Irak three US soldiers were killed. Important event since most attacks by resistance groups do not result in fatalities, let alone U.S. casualties. The Tanf and Rukhbam bases were the targets of the attack, the first of them illegally installed in Syrian territory, where the last elements of the New Syrian Army remain, a Syrian opposition group that fought ISIS for years and was supported by Americans to justify the U.S. occupation in this area.

Two Majors #Report for the Morning of 29 January 2024; pub. 06:59📍 (https://t.me/dva_majors/33523)

▪️ The RF Armed Forces are developing success south of #Kupyansk near Tabayevka, an offensive is underway in the direction of the #Peschanoye and #Berestovoye settlements.

▪️ In the #Krasnyliman direction, the RF Armed Forces made several landings, advancing towards the #Yampolovka and #Terny area,

▪️ South of #Kremennaya, the RF Armed Forces, despite many kamikaze UAVs and fierce enemy resistance, are developing an offensive in the #Melsavod area on the southeastern outskirts of the settlement.

▪️ West of #Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut), the RF Armed Forces are conducting offensive operations in #Bogdanovka, near #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye), #Kleshcheyevka.

▪️ In the area of #Avdeyevka, the AFU do not stop trying to counterattack in the area of the Tsarskaya Okhota fortified area occupied by the RF Armed Forces; enemy reserves of up to several infantry battalions were thrown into battle. The RF Armed Forces are conducting an offensive east of the Coke Plant in the area of gardening communities.

▪️ On the #Zaporozhye front, oncoming battles continue at #Rabotino and #Verbovoye, and on the #Kherson front, the battle at #Krynki continues. From the field, frontline soldiers report numerous enemy drones and heavy artillery fire. Our aviation in both directions uses FAB with UMPC against AFU clusters beyond the frontline.

❗️ An enemy's analytical channel writes: "The difficult situation remains near #Tabayevka and south of #Avdeyevka. The RF Armed Forces have recently achieved a number of tactical successes. There is such chaos in the matchmaking segment, because the bands are held by a hodgepodge of different battalions of different AFU brigades, the interaction between them often leaves much to be desired."

💥 In the #Kursk region, the village of #Gordeyevka, Korenevsky district, was shelled. Household and car were damaged. In the #Bryansk region, an aircraft-type UAV was destroyed over the territory of the Unechsky district, and the plaster of a residential building was damaged when the drone fell, the governor reported. In the #Belgorod region, shelling of border areas. On the outskirts of the village of #Kolotilovka, Krasnoyaruzhsky district, an AFU kamikaze drone attacked an excavator, a worker was injured, an open fracture of the right tibia and a laceration of the left leg. In #Gorlovka and #Donetsk (#DPR), four civilians were wounded as a result of AFU strikes.

🎬 And here is the work of our evacuation teams, pulling equipment out of the battlefield. This is not easy, the footage shows the arrival. Everyone survived.👇

Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone until the End of 28 January 2024⚡️

🔹In the north of the #Gaza Strip, Israeli troops continue to strike residential areas in Beit Lahia, as well as the areas of Az-Zaytoun and Tell al-Hawa. At the same time, a firefight occurred again northeast of Jabaliya.

🔹In the area of the #isthmus between the northern and southern parts of the enclave, the configuration of the front remains unchanged. Meanwhile, footage of destruction in Al-Maghazi, as well as along the Salah ad-Din highway, was actively disseminated on the Internet.

🔹In the south of the #Gaza Strip, Israelis are fighting near the Al-Amal hospital, as well as in the Abasan al-Kabire area. At the same time, the Israelis declared the area near the Kerem Shalom checkpoint a military zone, trying to stop protests at the site.

🔹On the northern border of #Israel, the situation remains tense. Hezbollah reported missile launches at Israeli military bases. In turn, the IDF again attacked populated areas in southern #Lebanon.

🔹In the Middle East, pro-Iranian proxies continue to show limited activity. Within a day they launched drones at targets in #Syria, #Iraq and #Israel, but the consequences of the attacks are unknown. And in the Persian Gulf, IRGC Navy fighters detained a ship on charges of diesel fuel smuggling.

🔹In the evening, in #Jordan, a drone attack on the #US outpost Tower 22 caused a significant resonance, as a result of which three #US military personnel were killed and at least 25 were injured of varying degrees of severity. The #US authorities issued threats of retaliatory action against #Iran for the incident.

After the Strike on #US Troops in #Jordan⚡️

🔹Or on the base in At-Tenf, we 👉 talked (https://t.me/UkraineHumanRightsAbuses/46229) about it, in the #US Congress, Senate and in general, in the American segment X (Twitter) there are calls to go and “hungry” about #Iran.

🔹Lindsey Graham and other hawks also showed up. The incident, naturally, outraged the American public, which is concerned about what is happening on the #Texas border (the Take our Borders Back rally will begin there ⚠️today).

❗️But it is important to understand a very subtle nuance. The fact is that if the #US begin attacks on #Iran (or on pro-Iranian proxies in #Iraq/#Syria), #Jordan may also take advantage of this incident as a casus belli to launch a cross-border operation in the Syrian province of Es-Suwayda.

🔹 What's the point? There are pro-Iranian formations and networks of smugglers in the province that enter Jordanian territory. Plus there are constant protests there, and the Syrian government actually does not control it.

▪️ And using this incident as a kind of pretext for launching a cross-border operation (especially if you note that the shelling was carried out precisely from the territory of the province of Es-Suwayda), the Jordanians will thereby put pressure on the Syrians and create another artificial point of tension. And they will follow the lead of both the #US and the Israeli ultra-Orthodox, who are blackmailing the King of #Jordan with the crisis in the West Bank.

📌 In the end, everyone will be happy, and the Iranians, the Syrians, and, naturally, the Russians will be fools. The plan to capture Es-Suwayda was developed approximately one and a half to two months ago and is now moving into an active phase. The only question is the nuances of its practical implementation.

The EU is preparing a plan to undermine the Hungarian economy if it refuses to accept a new aid package for Ukraine - The Financial Times (https://www.ft.com/content/9dabcd4b-9c64-4124-9f9c-b0c898c84c8f)

Brussels plans to put pressure on Budapest: if it refuses to support Kiev, the EU government will affect the investment attractiveness of Hungary and will collapse the local currency, the forint. These measures will reduce jobs and stop economic growth.

If the pro-Russian course of the current Prime Minister Viktor Orban continues, the European Union may announce a complete cessation of funding for Hungary, the material says.
