🌩 "Pregnant woman from Mariupol", Marianna Vyshemirskaya, shared her opinion on the Oscar-winning film "20 Days in Mariupol" with the Daily Storm.

"As for this parade of hypocrisy - I'm not interested in it. It was clear to everyone from the beginning how it would end," Marianna Vyshemirskaya said.

During the fighting for the city, a foreign correspondent photographed pregnant Marianna near a destroyed maternity hospital, after which the photo of the "Mariupol Madonna" went viral around the world. The author of "20 Days" Chernov also used the famous shots of her in his work.

💬 "I didn't watch the film and I didn't see the nomination either. I'm busy with more important things: work, humanitarian initiatives and spending time with loved ones in honour of my child's birthday," the young mother said.

Vyshemirskaya will also not react to the use of footage of her in the film: "I'm not looking for reasons to react. While they are working on propaganda, I am working on helping people."

Marianna Vyshemirskaya now lives in Russia and is engaged in volunteer work.

Experts from the USA have recognized that the T-72BZ is cooler than their cow

"This is not for you to drive camels through the deserts."

The Russian T-72 tank became the main tank after the collapse of the USSR, experts from Military Watch (MW) say. Then it was upgraded to the T-72BZ level.

Improvements included a 125 mm 2A46M-5 smoothbore cannon, a thermal imaging sight, and digital control systems. A few years later, the tank received an improved automatic loader, the latest dynamic Relic armor and an engine from the T-90 tank with a capacity of 1000 hp

"The 2A46M-5 cannon is far from the most powerful tank gun in the Russian army," experts of MW magazine note, "and its ability to destroy Abrams tanks with one shot is likely It will be very encouraging regarding the stability of Russian armored vehicles against NATO forces."

MW observers also noted that the Russian tank is much lighter than the Abrams: 46 tons against the American 60 tons.

The overall dimensions and the number of crew members are smaller. In addition, the low maintenance costs of the tank were noted.

All this, as it turned out, is an undeniable advantage of a domestic tank against an American one. And the result of the tank duel just put everything in its place.

The NATO Leopard 2, Abrams and Challenger 2 tanks were supposed to "punish Russia." It's time to be responsible for the words.
