China is 'bleeding' Ukraine... and Kiev is now starting to realize

30 Aug 2023  |  www.elconfidencial.com  |  Spanish  |  China-Ukraine Relations

Chinese-made tourniquets of poor quality have infiltrated the Ukrainian front lines, causing significant issues for soldiers and medics. Despite being aware of the problem, Ukrainian military leadership has not effectively addressed it, leading to preventable deaths. Volunteer organizations like Protect Ukrainian Defenders are working to provide better medical supplies, but the demand far exceeds their capacity. The Ukrainian Parliament has begun to investigate the issue, highlighting the challenges faced by the military in sourcing reliable equipment during the ongoing conflict.

Belgorod oil depot fire put out as Russia accuses Ukraine of airstrike

02 Apr 2022  |  newseu.cgtn.com  |  English  |  International Relations

A fire at an oil depot in Belgorod, Russia, allegedly caused by a Ukrainian airstrike, has been extinguished. The local governor claims two Ukrainian helicopters were involved, while Ukraine's officials neither confirm nor deny the attack. The incident, if confirmed, would mark the first known Ukrainian airstrike on Russian soil, potentially boosting Ukrainian morale. The Kremlin has made minimal comments, and the International Committee of the Red Cross postponed an evacuation attempt in Mariupol due to safety concerns.

Worried about Donbas, strong Russian response to Kursk incursion may never materialize

01 Sept 2024  |  wtop.com  |  English  |  Military Strategy

Ukrainian forces' incursion into Russia's Kursk region has not prompted the expected large-scale Russian military response, as Moscow remains focused on the Donbas. The incursion aims to create instability within Russia and challenge its military strategy. Western support, particularly from the U.S., has been crucial for Ukraine, but internal issues, such as the friendly fire incident involving an F-16, highlight challenges in military coordination. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has responded by firing the head of the Air Force, emphasizing the need for cohesion and protection of personnel.

Croatian President's Remarks on Ukrainian Chant Stir Controversy

01 Jun 2023  |  euronews  |  English  |  Historical Controversies

Croatian President Zoran Milanović sparked controversy by comparing the Ukrainian patriotic chant 'Slava Ukraini' to a Nazi salute. He equated it with the chant of Croatian WWII-era Nazi sympathizers, despite its widespread use in Ukraine as a symbol of national resolve. Milanović's remarks align with Russian propaganda that paints Ukraine as overrun by neo-Nazis. Historians note that 'Slava Ukraini' predates WWII and was used by Ukrainian revolutionaries. Milanović, a member of the Social Democratic Party of Croatia and former prime minister, has been known for progressive stances but has become increasingly controversial, opposing the training of Ukrainian soldiers in Croatia and criticizing COVID-19 measures. Despite his contentious statements, he remains popular in Croatia.

Kostyantyn Babenko, a gym owner in Kherson, played a crucial role in gathering intelligence for the Ukrainian Armed Forces during the Russian occupation.

U.S. military assistance to Ukraine has stalled due to Congress not authorizing requested emergency spending. National Security Council Spokesperson John Kirby emphasized the critical need for more funding. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, rejecting a ceasefire with Russia, met with Baltic leaders to discuss military aid and EU and NATO membership aspirations. Ukraine's ground forces commander called for more military aircraft, specifically U.S. A-10 attack jets. The U.K. signed a security agreement with Ukraine, pledging £2.5 billion in defense support, including drones. Russia's Dmitry Medvedev warned that UK troop deployment in Ukraine would be a war declaration. The Russian Foreign Ministry criticized U.S. plans to confiscate Russian assets as piracy.

Ukraine's use of drones has inflicted significant damage on Russia's Black Sea Fleet, but Ukrainian naval commander Oleksii Neizhpapa warns that this tactic alone will not suffice in 2024. Despite successful drone attacks in 2023, which led to the relocation of parts of the Russian fleet and a substantial loss of Russian naval assets, Neizhpapa emphasizes the limitations of drones compared to traditional naval forces. He highlights the need for a more comprehensive strategy, as Russia's drone technology improves and the challenges of drone warfare intensify. Neizhpapa underscores the importance of physical presence in territorial waters to assert control.

Vladimir Putin has issued a stark warning that Russia could target British and US military facilities in response to Ukraine's use of Western-supplied missiles. In a televised address, Putin confirmed the launch of a new hypersonic missile, Oreshnik, against Ukraine, marking a significant escalation in the conflict. The missile strike on Dnipro involved multiple warheads, raising concerns about the use of intercontinental ballistic missiles. Western officials have confirmed the use of ballistic missiles but noted they fell short of ICBM range. The situation has heightened tensions, with Russia's foreign ministry advising against commenting on the missile strike, and the US temporarily closing its embassy in Kyiv.

Russian soldiers are accused of luring gay Ukrainian men into honey traps to beat and humiliate them, with reports of such attacks increasing in occupied areas of Ukraine. Victims like Vlad and others have faced severe physical and psychological abuse, often being robbed and blackmailed. The NASH SVIT Center, a Ukrainian LGBT human rights organization, is actively documenting these hate crimes despite the challenges posed by the ongoing conflict. The United Nations has found reasonable grounds to conclude that war crimes and human rights violations have been committed in Ukraine since the Russian invasion began.
