It's not very interesting to post excavation and engineering work. Additionally, such videos carry risks, as they may reveal geolocation and details about fortifications. That's why I rarely share them. (Please consider reposting and see the donation link at the end.) However, this footage is cleared for OPSEC, so... I’m sharing it. There has been some criticism regarding our choice of excavators (Yanmar 30, 50, and 80 models). This video demonstrates exactly why these smaller (though not truly small) machines were selected. They allow engineers to operate within treelines, windbreaks, and forested areas, staying concealed from enemy observation and fire. In this particular case, the team was able to approach frontline positions on the Pokrovsk axis despite heavy drone activity. Moving along treelines, they reached the second defensive line, which lies in close proximity to the first. Tracked compact excavators enable such operations to be conducted with reduced exposure and greater safety. I want to thank everyone who contributed to acquiring these machines — they are actively making a difference. At the moment, I’m raising funds to purchase two additional excavators for the 56th Brigade. We are currently stalled at $73,000 of the $100,000 target. Any repost, comment, or donation is highly appreciated. Donation link:show more

I am trying to finish this fundraiser to get two more excavators to Ukraine for the 56th Brigade and asking for your help by reposting, liking, and commenting. Below are more details on how these machines operate and a donation link: The machines we provide work literally 24/7, day and night, at the front lines. Their size allows excavation within thick tree lines, concealed from enemy drones. One excavator does the work of at least 30 people with shovels. I know it’s not as exciting, but trust me, a good trench or bunker makes a huge difference for infantry, drone operators, and commanders. Donation link:

Hello everyone, I know many of you are exhausted by political drama, mood swings from the President, and the general uncertainty. But the war goes on, and no matter how uncomfortable it is for me, I have to ask for your support again. (Donation link at the end.) My fundraiser to deliver engineering equipment (trucks and excavators) has stalled at around $50,000, with a goal of $120,000. I need your help sharing and donating. I know videos like these aren't the most popular—but it's this kind of everyday work that keeps the gears turning. Here are some facts and why this effort matters: 1) The best way to survive on the battlefield is to dig in, bunkers and trenches save lives. Excavators are the best tools to build them. 2) Excavators don’t just help build fortifications—they make the process 30 times faster. One 8-ton excavator can do the work of 40 men, if not more. 3) Fortifications remain a serious issue in Ukraine. Most units rely on outdated Kraz trucks, which are not designed to dig in treelines. They're bulky, slow, and ruin concealment. 4) Compact 8-ton excavators can hide easily while offering excellent digging capabilities—up to 30 cubic meters per hour. 5) We also supply beaver-tail and crane trucks alongside excavators, which significantly boost productivity and create new logistics options for our defenders. 6) Cranes allow for mechanical repairs of armored vehicles and transport of damaged armor and pickups. This initiative may not be as flashy as drones, but it fills a critical gap and expands the capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The feedback I receive from the frontlines about these trucks and excavators has been overwhelmingly positive. They are a true force multiplier. Here’s a short video showing how a truck donated by Liberty Ukraine Foundation 🇺🇸🇺🇦 made it possible to extract the gearbox from a Western-supplied armored vehicle and send it in for repair. donation link:

Hello everyone who follows Ukraine and wants to help. I am currently fundraising for a non-lethal aid in form of excavators and engineering equipment for Ukraine. (Donation link in the end) The fundraiser has stalled 100/120k goal, with only 20k left to collect so I would like to add a small video and explain the importance. Please watch the video to understand in which conditions these machines work, and how thick vegetation is, and that no other machine can work in such conditions. It’s literally working inside the bush under the tree without breaking the branches. Fortifications that these machines built are not those huge centralized bunkers for battalions. The size of the position is usually for a 5-20 men. While this seems small and insignificant, a good concealed position with dedicated and determined personnel can be an impenetrable fortress for the enemy. Our excavators are designed to build exactly that, their ability to work in a tight concealed areas without breaking the cover of leaves have proven to be decisive in building fortifications. What’s funny is that initially most of the engineers and commanders are skeptical of these machines, because they aren’t popular and unfamiliar in Ukraine. It takes time, first two weeks after getting the equipment they learn on practice how to apply machine capabilities, after a month they start calling and praising it saying they never expected such productivity and ability to work in tight spots. A month later all neighbors of that unit start calling and asking for similar machines. I know this isn’t a sexy drone, but this is a non lethal boring machine that saves lives. While it’s hard for me to quantify the impact, it’s no rare for me to receive a message from someone saying that they were recently under heavy artillery and drone attack but they felt safe because the enemy didn’t know their exact position and their bunker is deep enough to withstand direct hits. I think that this is a low hanging fruit of the life saving for Ukrainian defenders. Donation link:

Hello everyone. I have not fundraised for two months to give my followers a bit of a breather over the holidays. However, requests for aid keep piling up, and I cannot ignore Ukraine’s calls for help. Please share and like. I am starting a new fundraiser for more engineering equipment. Donation link at the end. As Ukraine shifts to heavier use of drones, both ground and aerial, more and more units realize they cannot simply stand in a field, and to operate effectively and safely, they cannot waste time digging positions with shovels. 🪏 Instead of providing reconnaissance, evacuation, resupply, or defense with drones, crews are forced to spend their time digging frozen ground. This is a long and exhausting process, and without proper tools it is almost impossible to build safe positions to operate from. I did not want to publish this video. This UAV battalion recorded it in December and sent it to me asking for help. However, in the current media environment, I feel I have no choice but to publish it to draw attention to the fundraiser. We are raising funds to buy two excavators and two evacuation trucks. The total goal is $120,000. Every donation matters, whether it is $10 or $10,000. donation link:

I’d like to share with you the important work the Liberty Ukraine Foundation 🇺🇸🇺🇦 is doing to provide vital engineering equipment to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, why this is so urgent, and how you can help (link in the end). We are currently focused on delivering specialized trucks with crane booms to Ukraine’s Engineering units. Recent developments in the conflict have made the war more mobile, with the frontline constantly shifting in both Donbas and Kursk. As a result, engineering units are now more critical than ever. They need to build fortifications at new positions quickly, and that’s why we are concentrating on securing the necessary equipment. The trucks we aim to supply are equipped with cranes that can transport construction materials for fortifications and small excavators. These vehicles not only reduce the time and labor needed to build new defensive structures, but they also help address the manpower shortages Ukraine is currently facing. Out of our goal of $120,000, we still need to raise $53,000 within the next week. There is a major auction in Europe on September 23, and we need to secure the funds by then. Additionally, the window for building fortifications is closing as the weather worsens, and when the leaves fall, our engineering efforts will be much more visible to enemy drones. I’m asking for your support to help us deliver this essential equipment to Ukraine. Whether you can contribute $1 or $1,000, every bit helps. Please consider donating and sharing this message. Donation Link: Thank you, and Slava Ukraini!

If you ever wonder why I am so adamant on supplying excavators to Ukraine, it's because they super versatile and speed up construction of fortifications 10 fold. (please support my new initiative to deliver more to Ukraine by reposting and liking and donating, donation link in the next post) A 5-8 ton small excavator hides well in the trees, it serves as a crane, as a manlift and as a shovel at the same time. I know this video isn't a hot drone footage of combat, but it is what enables the defense. Please watch the video of our defenders building fortifications for 🇸🇪archers. I hope this gives you a scale and size of the position that one archer needs, and you understand that it's almost impossible to build it with shovels. donation link in the next post ⤵️

I've started this private fundraiser to support our Kharkiv team, but it's not moving too well. We have only raised $1,000 out of our $12,000 goal. Please watch the video to understand the conditions these fellas are facing and donate if you can (donation link at the end). Now let me explain why it's important. We have a small team in #Kharkiv that operates a warehouse, a repair workshop for engineering equipment, a machining shop for making parts, and a welding station for making anti-drone protective cages. My brother, vaycartana, has been running it for more than 20 years. My brother-in-law, Danya, was helping produce the anti-drone metal cages; however, he was mobilized to the National Guard 3 weeks ago, so we are now short one worker. Additionally, our main welder, my good friend Tolya, recently cut his arm tendon while using an angle grinder tool and is now recovering. They are working 12-hour shifts under tremendous stress and daily bombardments, repairing excavators, welding cages, and producing parts for our defenders. As you can see, the conditions are really harsh. The roof is leaking, the floors are rough, and daily bombings and a lack of personnel keep them struggling. The least I could do is run a fundraiser to fix and insulate their roof and install concrete, safe floors that can handle the excavators, to keep them warm and safe, especially during the winter. Their work saves millions of dollars of equipment and countless lives of Ukrainian defenders. The warehouse logistics they provide have always been free. The excavators we buy and repair save hundreds of thousands of dollars (new ones cost $100,000+), and the shelters built with these excavators save Ukrainian lives and allow our defenses to hold. 🔗Donation link to support our Kharkiv team:

Hello, our shop in Kharkiv is working non-stop to deliver the engineering equipment. We are some of our best to make sure Ukrainian units have means to build fortifications and shelters. I am asking for your help by donating or sharing, liking and commenting on this post. New equipment such as this costs 140,000$ per machine. We are buying them for 20k-30k repairing for 10k and with logistics average cost of the 7 ton excavator is around 30-40k USD. This is 1/3 to 1/4 of the cost of the new machine, and after the repairs it's ready to work for another 3-4 years. Now, why are these machines so important? Whatever video of the Ukrainian command center, drone pilot position, infantry position or an artillery position you see in the news, it's always buried underground. Ukraine has severe engineering equipment shortages to build the fortifications. On top of that, centralized engineering units often build something that isn't as functional as needed. Our organization empowers battalion and brigade level units with excavators to build exactly what they need and save lives of their service men. I am asking you to donate to our cause, we have been providing aid to Ukraine for the past 4 years, and as of late, donations have dried out and fundraising became extremely difficult. Please consider donating: Donation link:

Sorry to be blunt, but I am asking you to donate towards our efforts to get more engineering equipment to Ukraine, specifically two excavators and a truck for the 72nd brigade. We are stuck at 50%, and my post seems to be supressed by X. These machines save lives and I can't explain well enough how important they are. Neither foreign governments, nor Ukrainian leadership is providing enough of them to our defenders. But we can help, please don't look away from atrocities russia is committing, a simple retweet, like and comment is supper helpful, and your donations donation link:

Hello everyone, Last month, I launched a fundraiser to provide engineering equipment for Ukraine, but due to low donations, I had to pause and reassess. Today, I’m relaunching the fundraiser and want to share an example of the impact of the machines we provide. Please share and donate (link at the end). 🎯13,000$/120,000$ This video showcases a PzH 2000 howitzer with crew quarters, built using an excavator we supplied to the 43rd Artillery Brigade a year ago. The video highlights the size of the position—it’s massive—and with the excavator, it takes just one day to dig. Without it, the same task would require 2–3 weeks and eight people. These machines are often overlooked, and their importance is underestimated because they aren’t considered "new tech." I know this work may seem mundane and unexciting, but it’s what saves Ukrainian lives and protects equipment worth tens of millions of dollars. I’m currently fundraising with Liberty Ukraine Foundation 🇺🇸🇺🇦 and Official Toonie Tuesday 🎗️ to purchase two excavators and a transport truck to deliver them. This equipment takes time to deliver and repair, with a goal of completing the transfer within two months after the fundraiser is fully funded. The machines will support the 72nd Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Please share and donate using the link below Donation link 🔗:

Many people don't really understand the size of the equipment Ukraine operates and why excavators are critical and what I am asking for your help with donating and sharing this message (donation link in the end) Here is an example of a PzH 2000 that was sent to me by a friend from a brigade we are helping with excavators. You can see the dugout that an excavator has built for it, and you can compare a person's size to the size of the machine to understand the labor that goes into saving these machines. Even with an excavator, it still takes days to construct. It's impossible to dig a position for it with a shovel. This howitzer costs tens of millions of dollars; you can help save it and its crew by donating 10 dollars Donation link:

Hello, I don't have many words left. Today is Christmas Eve, and I would deeply appreciate it if you could watch the video, repost, and make a small donation as a Christmas present to help a logistics and engineering unit from the 92nd Brigade. They are responsible for delivering ammunition, provisions, and construction materials to the assault battalions, artillery, and tanks. It's grueling, back-breaking work that they currently do manually because they lack a forklift. Someone donated an old, standard-issue forklift, but it keeps breaking down due to the rough terrain, leaving them back to loading and unloading everything by hand. We can make a difference. In fact, we've already purchased a rough-terrain forklift, but the funds were diverted from another project to meet this urgent need. Now, I must ask for your support to replenish the funds so we can wrap up this effort without cutting into other essential projects. Consider this donation a small gift to the hardworking men and women of the 92nd Brigade. Please watch the video and listen to the officer explain why this is so important. We are 50% away from reaching our goal. Donation link:

My dear friends and followers, I have an important and somewhat unusual fundraiser to announce. It's very important, and I am asking for your help to spread the word and donate. Please read a small interview from Ukrainian commanders and the details below. The donation link is in the end. After consulting with my friends from the Ukrainian 92nd Assault, 26th, and 47th Artillery Brigades, I have decided to shift my fundraising goals toward engineering equipment, specifically excavators. Why are small excavators so important for the infantry? I spoke with an infantry battalion commander from one of the assault brigades to better understand this. Please read quotes from him: ▶️ "Our brigade has one or two PZM2 trenchers, and they are always either broken or in use. We lack the manpower to build proper fortifications, and the infantry often ends up not digging deep and long enough trenches because they are exhausted from endless combat and shelling. I can't afford to have them in a trench for six days and then digging another trench for six more days; they need to rest." ▶️ I asked if they would be able to dig the fortifications when enemy FPVs fly by: "Now is the perfect time for that, because of the greenery, we can relatively safely build trenches inside the treelines 2-5 km away from the frontline. If we have a small 2-8 ton excavator, it can discreetly operate inside the treeline without breaking all the trees. It’s mobile and easy to use. Yes, we will have a risk of delivering it quickly enough to the treeline and back, but I'd rather risk it driving in the open for 15 minutes than having my infantry stuck in knee-deep trenches without proper ceiling layering with three layers of logs." ▶️ "They save the lives of our infantry. If you carefully examine the latest videos, you can see that the only thing between the infantry and the enemy FPV is the fortifications." ▶️ "No, we won’t use the excavator on the front line; we will use them to build fallback positions, positions for drone operators, and for the command posts." So I've spoken about the infantry, but why does artillery need them? To better understand this, I spoke with one of the artillery brigade commander's deputies. Please read his comments: ▶️ "Let’s not start the blame game; it’s just the reality. We only have one excavator based on a Kraz for digging, and it’s always under repairs or maintenance." ▶️"Remember how many videos there were of our machines struck by lancets? Well, you see less now. We are taking measures, and those measures work. With properly built fortifications, it’s only a direct hit from a 152mm shell or a missile that can destroy the howitzer." "With excavators, we hide our equipment deep, we build separate ammo storage, and we build a bunker for the crew." ▶️"How long do you think it takes to dig a fortification to conceal a Krab with shovels? At least two weeks, and while the crew is building it, it can’t operate. If you think that’s not enough reason, I will give you another one: we had crew members injuring themselves while digging, breaking bones, two people got injured at the same time. This affected howitzer operations; you can’t properly operate it if you have two people missing." ▶️"With an excavator that you gave us, it takes us only two days and requires three times fewer people to build a Krab shelter, two ammo storages, and a bunker for the crew." As you can see, the engineering equipment is highly needed, so this month I want to set an ambitious goal to acquire three excavators, get funds for repairs, and build protective cages for Bohdana howitzers against FPVs. We already have two 5-ton excavators waiting to be repaired in Kharkiv, so our total goal is below: ✅ 3 x 5-ton Yanmar Vio50/55 excavators: $90,000 ✅ Repair parts for 5 mini excavators, 4 Yanmar and 1 Hyundai: $20,000 ✅ Repair parts and services for a 55-ton crane to support burning shipping containers for command posts for the 59th Brigade: $11,000 ✅Protective cages for Bohdana howitzers: $24,000 We are setting up a repair and maintenance shop in Kharkiv right now, and your aid is very much needed. Without you, we can’t do it. I know this seems like a huge and ambitious goal, and I am not sure if we can meet it. But together, we have already saved millions of dollars of equipment.

My dear friends and followers, I have an important and somewhat unusual fundraiser to announce. It's very important, and I am asking for your help to spread the word and donate. Please read a small interview from Ukrainian commanders and the details below. The donation link is in the end. After consulting with my friends from the Ukrainian 92nd Assault, 26th, and 47th Artillery Brigades, I have decided to shift my fundraising goals toward engineering equipment, specifically excavators. Why are small excavators so important for the infantry? I spoke with an infantry battalion commander from one of the assault brigades to better understand this. Please read quotes from him: ▶️ "Our brigade has one or two PZM2 trenchers, and they are always either broken or in use. We lack the manpower to build proper fortifications, and the infantry often ends up not digging deep and long enough trenches because they are exhausted from endless combat and shelling. I can't afford to have them in a trench for six days and then digging another trench for six more days; they need to rest." ▶️ I asked if they would be able to dig the fortifications when enemy FPVs fly by: "Now is the perfect time for that, because of the greenery, we can relatively safely build trenches inside the treelines 2-5 km away from the frontline. If we have a small 2-8 ton excavator, it can discreetly operate inside the treeline without breaking all the trees. It’s mobile and easy to use. Yes, we will have a risk of delivering it quickly enough to the treeline and back, but I'd rather risk it driving in the open for 15 minutes than having my infantry stuck in knee-deep trenches without proper ceiling layering with three layers of logs." ▶️ "They save the lives of our infantry.

WATCH | I saw these workers cleaning windows on a very tall building called Takura House, at the corner of First Street and Kwame Nkrumah Avenue. At first, they were cleaning windows on the 9th floor, and then they moved down to the 8th floor. I tried speaking to the building security, but they told me to wait for about an hour. When I went back, the workers were still there continuing with the job. I also tried calling the caretaker, but the phone was not being answered. I am concerned about their safety. It looks like they are working at a serious height without proper safety gear, such as safety belts or harnesses. If someone were to slip, it could easily result in a fatal fall. These are people supporting their families, and it is worrying to see them being put at such risk. At the very least, they should be provided with proper safety equipment to protect them in case of accidents.

I'd like to point something out regarding the recent DRG operations, and specifically the attached video showing a Russian sabotage operation deep inside Pokrovsk City. This is nothing new - at least in the sense that these deep infiltrations behind the frontlines have been occurring for several months now. As I and many others have been pointing out for a long time, Ukrainian manpower problems will eventually reach a point where they are unable to contain Russian infantry. Right now, we are at the point where they cannot contain all DRGs and are failing to kill them within the required period of 12-24 hours. DRGs have been constantly slipping behind Ukrainian lines simply because there are no soldiers to stop them in some areas. They utilise cover from treelines, windbreaks and the more lightly damaged settlements to evade being spotted by drones, and then carry out sabotage operations on Ukrainian positions multiple kilometres behind the frontline on unaware soldiers and commanders in temporary deployment points. This is what I mean when I point out how relying on one thing to hold parts of the frontline (drones) is not a good tactic nor a good sign as it significantly simplifies Russian assault operation - they don't have to account for as many factors. Yes, the number of DRG operations in the Pokrovsk direction has significantly increased, but the main reason we are seeing this is because of how much attention Pokrovsk is getting right now. This is a common occurrence in weak sections of the frontline, and even sometimes much more stable sectors such as the frontline northwest of Bakhmut.

Dear friends, followers, and all who support Ukraine because it’s the right thing to do—today, together with Liberty Ukraine Foundation 🇺🇸🇺🇦 I am launching a crucial fundraiser to provide more engineering equipment to Ukraine. The donation link is at the end. Please watch the video till the end, as our soldier explains why it’s so important. One of the battalions from the 92nd Brigade urgently needs a manipulator crane truck and an excavator. They’re currently facing major challenges in excavating unexploded Russian bombs—right now, they are doing it by hand and loading them onto pickup trucks. This is not only extremely dangerous but also incredibly labor-intensive. They have a workshop (called Death Factory) that recycles these bombs, and the results are used by many other brigades beyond just the 92nd (please watch the video in the next tweet to learn more about their workshop). Their work is critical to many units. I’ve reached out to their commander and offered our help, help of the Twitter community that supports Ukraine. Together, we can fundraise and deliver the necessary equipment. Specifically, we aim to provide not only a crane truck but also an excavator to improve their excavation work. I believe the #NAFO, #OSINT, and the wider Ukrainian supporters community on Twitter are powerful enough to make this happen. Our goal is to fundraise for: 🏗️🚛2 Crane Trucks 🚜🚜2 5-Ton Excavators 🎯120,000$ Each set will cost around $60,000, (we will try to get two), including repairs and delivery to our workshop in Kharkiv. We have the experience and capability to deliver this critical equipment to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. So I’m asking for your support—whether it’s through donations, retweets, comments, or likes. Every bit helps. Donation link: Thank you for standing with Ukraine!

#WATCH | Delhi: Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi says, "As for the drones, the drones we have seen are very small drones. They come with their lights on. They don't fly at very high altitudes, and they have been seen very infrequently. Around 6 drones were seen on the 10th January, and 2 to 3 were seen on the 11th and 12th January. These, I believe, were defensive drones, which were trying to see if any action was being taken against us. It's possible they also wanted to see if there were any gaps, any laxity in the Indian Army, any gaps through which they could send terrorists. So, I think they must have received a negative response. They must have seen that as of today, there is no such place, no such gap from where they can send them. But this is certain: we had a DGMO (Director General of Military Operations) talk today. This matter was discussed in that talk, and they were told that this is unacceptable to us, and please put a stop to it. This has been conveyed to them..."
