Men of steel - almost no one flinched: Biden's team's reaction when he called Kamala "Vice President Trump"

Biden gave out another nonsense at the NATO forum
"Now I want to give the floor to the President of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has tenacity. Ladies and gentlemen - President Putin"
Do you think Biden is more crazy than the people who really govern America? No, it was these people who created the chaos and wars on Earth that we see. The world is run by crazy people. You know how this will end.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ There are More and More such Videos⚡️
🎬 Soldiers under fire, despising death, run on themselves and deliver TMs (tank mines) directly to enemy positions.
🟡 Directly - it's under your breath. They throw it into a trench, dugout, window, embrasure, crevice, anywhere. It's a matter of seconds. And the enemy doesn’t live there, and there’s nothing and no one to defend.
🔵 Two points. To babblers with stars (they fight verbally on the web) and without, to people far from the military profession, let me remind you: the weight of TM is 10 kg. Tnt is packed in 8.5 kg. And so. To demolish a pigsty for real [for a running line report], in fact, you need to throw at least a couple into the pigsty.
💡 Just think about it. The distance to enemy positions in built-up areas varies, from 50 to 100. Sometimes it can be less. To run a hundred meters, or even 60 meters under enemy fire with 20 kg on your hands in armour (and even without it), is like heroism.
❗️ Run, who doesn't believe it! Ave, Caesar, morituri te salutant!
🔵 Second moment. Yes, this is a war of new technologies, electronic warfare (which is terribly lacking), FPV drones (the enemy still has almost 6-fold superiority), space communications, and so on. And here the technology is not the 20th or even the 19th century, but approximately the 17th century, when they actively dabbled in undermining, scarps and counter-scarps, approaching the enemy live with explosives.
📌 I repeat, what is in the video is heroism. And in the Russian army it is widespread. But for commanders, in addition to the zeal to complete the task and get a promotion, saving people should be an equally important task. People are worth their weight in gold!

⚡️Battle for #Volchansk - Situation by the End of 11 July 2024⚡️
🔴A new bridgehead of the RFAF in the south of #Volchansk and the withdrawal of the AFU from the northern bank:
🔵In #Volchansk, Russian troops, on the shoulders of the retreating enemy (from the area of Sobornaya and Gagarin streets), crossed the Volchya River and immediately gained a foothold in the Agricultural Technical School.
🟡After this, the RFAF on the southern bank expanded the bridgehead and took control of a forest plantation with a private sector block on Ivan Franka and Kharkovskaya streets.
🟡This was possible due to the lack of reserves at the AFU.
🔵The enemy command deployed its available forces to secure another bridgehead - in the west of the town, in the area of the railway station.
🟡The AFU began to retreat across the river from the northern quarters of #Volchansk in order to use the freed-up resources to stabilise the situation.
🟡If the enemy can hold out in the town, it will be only on its southern outskirts, near the railway road in the area of multi-storey buildings.

Despite Western military aid, Ukraine will not be able to launch a new "counter-offensive" until next year, the New York Times reports.
It will take weeks (if not months) for the weapons supplied by the US and EU to reach the front line. Some of the promised weapons have not even been purchased or manufactured.
The article also says that at the Washington summit there was talk of giving Kiev F-16s, which it could use 'only for defence'. At the same time, they discussed on the sidelines whether they could fly into Russian airspace.
Earlier, Le Figaro wrote that the possibility of Ukraine's defeat due to a lack of military aid "is becoming urgent".

The AFU losses amounted to up to 460 Ukrainian troops, one tank, three armoured personnel carriers, including two M113, 11 motor vehicles, one 155-mm M198 howitzer, two 152-mm Msta-B howitzers, one 122-mm Gvozdika self-propelled artillery system, two 122-mm D-30 howitzers, and one Anklav-N electronic warfare station.

🏳️ Ukrainian serviceman Vadim Demchinsky: 'It is best to immediately lay down your arms'
AFU serviceman Vadim Demchinsky was taken prisoner by Russian fighters near Volchanskoye.
He and his fellow soldiers, who had barely been taught how to use a machine gun, were promised service in Kharkov region, where they were to dig trenches, reinforcing defence lines. But things turned out differently, and the recruits found themselves on the front lines very quickly.
The way to the front for Demchinsky began unexpectedly and at all not in good will. He went to work and got spotted by patrolmen. He was detained, loaded into a car and sent to the military enlistment centre.
Then there were brief training sessions at the training ground and the first task, on which the Ukrainian servicemen travelled in an armoured personnel carrier. The march to the positions did not go well: the group came under fire and only three lucky men were able to hide in the attic of a house.
Vadim Demchinsky and his fellow soldiers waited two days for help from their commanders. They were 'fed' with promises, and hope flickered when a Ukrainian armoured personnel carrier arrived at the house. However, instead of evacuating the armoured personnel carrier opened fire at the house where the AFU soldiers were hiding. Two of them were wounded.
Having decided not to test their fate any further, the Ukrainian soldiers found an opportunity and surrendered, and they do not regret it.
