Russian telegram channel "Older than Eddy": (https://t.me/vysokygovorit/17630?single) "In the first days of the war, the division's artillery consumed up to 10,000 shells per day. Today, conducting a comparative analysis of the accuracy of our units' fire, we can draw an unambiguous conclusion - in two and a half years, the crews have gained tremendous experience and have greatly improved their skills.





I have repeatedly witnessed how enemy combat vehicles and personnel groups are destroyed with the first shot. Nevertheless, the guys' hunt for the khokhol has not become a routine. The fighters continue to hone their skills and set records.
In the self-propelled artillery regiment of the Guards 144th Motorized Rifle Division, I am familiar with crews that have destroyed dozens of enemy armored vehicles and guns, not counting vehicles, personnel, command posts and warehouses. For example, the commander of the Giatsint gun with the call sign "Maloy", serving in this famous regiment, during a counter-battery fight recently destroyed an enemy M777 with the first shell at a distance of 28.5 km."

Five Iskander-M ballistic missiles fired at the Nykolaev Armored Plant of Ukraine (https://t.me/otpervogolitsa/92404)
The strike with five missiles resulted in partial destruction of two production workshops and a fire over an area of more than 600 square meters. The strike caused significant damage to the repair capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Interruption of the repair cycle of combat equipment may reduce the density of armored units at the front line.

Morning Summary on October 15, 2024
▪️ In Kursk Region, the Russian Armed Forces continue attacks in the Lyubimovka area. They report disruption of communications and supply routes between enemy units, leading to their disorientation and lack of understanding of the current line of contact in some areas. There are reports of successes of our troops near Cherkaska Konopelka.
▪️ North of Chasiv Yar, our troops captured an enemy stronghold after fierce fighting. On the southern flank, the Russian Armed Forces advanced up to 900 meters along the T0504 (N-32) highway near the canal "Seversky Donets-Donbass" bridge.

🇮🇱🇺🇸 Deployment of a THAAD battery to Israel
Yesterday, several heavy C-17 transport aircraft flew from the US to Israel via the UK, carrying out the deployment of a THAAD air defense battery.
Under an agreement between the governments, the air defense systems will guard Israel's airspace against potential strikes by Iranian ballistic missiles amid escalating tensions.
🔻However, this is not the most important aspect. Many analysts have expressed concerns that the relocation of THAAD is a very burdensome task, as their global numbers are limited.
According to the developer Lockheed Martin, there are only nine active batteries, two of which belong to the UAE, and seven are on the books of the US Army. These are deployed in different parts of the world.
One battery is deployed in Guam, one in South Korea, the US has transferred one battery to Israel in October last year, and another may be in Saudi Arabia.
So there were either four or three batteries left on US territory, depending on the fate of the one that was supposed to be sent to El-Hadj. And with yesterday's delivery, it's three or even two.
❗️This has caused surprise in some of the American segment of the internet, as it not only further entangled the US in the confrontation in the Middle East, but also reduced its own defense capabilities.
And for the Ukrainian public, this has become another confirmation of the rapidly changing priorities of the American partners, for whom the so-called Ukraine is no longer as interesting.
