Official Pokrovsk Defense video report, January 23 Colonel Volodymyr Polevyi. 7 AAF Corps Head of Startcom. The forces of the 7th Corps continue defensive operations in the Pokrovsk–Myrnohrad area. Ukrainian units retain control over the northern sectors of both cities. Operational data and intelligence reporting indicate that Russian offensive potential is beginning to degrade. Adverse weather conditions, combined with a systemic disregard for personnel welfare, are among the key contributing factors. Below are several observations on how extreme cold impacts the conduct of combat operations in Ukraine. “General Winter” is traditionally portrayed as a force that helps Russia defeat its enemies — Napoleon, Hitler, and, allegedly, democracy itself. But in today’s war in Ukraine, which side actually suffers more from the cold? The decisive factor that mitigates weather effects is troop preparation and equipment. Defending forces benefit from well-prepared, long-term positions equipped with shelters, heating, and stockpiles. This significantly reduces non-combat losses. Supply routes are established, logistics are functioning, and reserves are in place. For troops on the offensive — especially without vehicular resupply — all available equipment is limited to what a soldier can carry: a sleeping mat, a sleeping bag, a blanket, a small gas stove. For assault units, frost acts as a force multiplier for existing problems. Russian soldiers are pushed into open terrain without proper winter equipment and with no intent to sustain them. They cannot dig into frozen ground or light fires. The result is hypothermia and frostbite — quickly translating into non-combat casualties. In the Pokrovsk sector, Russian forces are attacking in small infantry groups without armored or mechanized support. Ukrainian troops operate from prepared positions, repel repeated assaults, and maintain control over key terrain. In these conditions, the cold works in favor of the defenders.

🛡️UAO & CVR - Total Defense against Fiber FPV Drones🛡️ Donate here (tax-deductible in the US): The greatest threat facing all units right now: Russian fiber-optic drones. These drones are controlled via a thin fibre optic thread, instead of the conventional radio signal. It means the drones can fly further ánd the signal cannot be hindered by a jammer. The Russian advantage in this area is enormous. With a range of over 30 km, sometimes 40 km and what seems like an endless supply, these drones make it increasingly difficult to hold positions and keep soldiers safe. Why Ukraine and the West have allowed Russia to gain this advantage is unclear. The technology itself isn’t complex, and the necessary components are widely available. It appears to be a matter of priorities. In the meantime, voluntary organizations like UAO are once again stepping in—to replenish vehicles, power stations, and drones when positions are hit. And we do so gladly. But it becomes harder when we hear about the human cost—those lost can never be replaced. That’s why we’re dedicating this new, large-scale fundraiser to countering the threat of fiber-optic drones. Because even though we often feel powerless, we are not. A well-structured, 3 step action plan can make a massive difference: Detect/Defend, Move, Cover. As defense against fiber optic FPV drones is the #1 issue in the frontlines right now, we are going to be fundraising for: 1. Red dots to effectively shoot down approaching fiber optic drones + training (DETECT/DEFEND) 2. 13 inch Optic Fibre FPV drones against enemy drone teams - which reach further (DETECT/DEFEND) 3. Quadbikes and trailers (logistics where cars cannot reach) (MOVE) 4. Kevlar protection for pick-up & (transport of) nets to protect positions (COVER) Thank you for your support🙏

PAKISTAN AIR FORCE DEMONSTRATES COMBAT READINESS IN SOUTHERN ZONE 10 February, 2025: Pakistan Air Force successfully conducted Exercise Golden Eagle in the Southern Air Command’s area of responsibility, involving the synchronized orchestration of the complete combat potential at the disposal of Pakistan Air Force showcasing battle readiness and operational agility. The exercise was aimed at further enhancing PAF’s operational prowess through an AI-enabled, net-centric training framework, integrating niche, disruptive and smart indigenous technologies. Aligned with evolving regional security dynamics, the exercise was planned and executed on a Two-Force construct, wherein friendly forces shaped the battlespace while operating within a robust Integrated Air Defence System matrix. This was achieved through seamless fusion and collaborative employment of kinetic capabilities alongside operations across the cyber, space and Electro-Magnetic Spectrum Operations arenas. The kinetic phase of the exercise featured employment of First-Shoot, First-Kill swing-role combat aircraft, equipped with long range beyond-visual-range air-to-air missiles, extended-range air-to-ground stand-off weapons, and precision strike capabilities. These operations were comprehensively supported by force multipliers, including Air-to-Air Refuelers and Airborne Early Warning & Control platforms, enabling precise and effective targeting of adversary centres of gravity. Manned–Unmanned Teaming was a key highlight of Exercise Golden Eagle, manifested through the adroit integration of deep-reach killer drones and loitering munitions operating in a highly contested, congested and degraded battlespace, thereby validating PAF’s capability to conduct high tempo operations in complex modern warfare environments. The Exercise also enabled PAF to practice and validate contemporary air warfare concepts under unified command and control from the Next-Generation All-Domain Command & Control Centre at Air Headquarters, Islamabad, while competing in a full-spectrum, modern tactical air environment. The successful conduct of Exercise Golden Eagle underscores Pakistan Air Force’s unwavering commitment to maintaining a high state of operational preparedness, leveraging indigenous innovation and remaining fully capable of effectively countering emerging and future security challenges.

GENIUS: Vermont Spent Millions on Electric Buses That Turned Out to be 'Unreliable' in Cold Weather | Mike LaChance, The Gateway Pundit Behold the genius of liberalism. Like so many blue states, Vermont decided to ‘go green’ and spent millions on electric buses. There’s just one little problem. It turns out that they’re not reliable in cold weather. It’s a good thing they never get cold weather in Vermont, right? Except for maybe just six months out of the year, of course. The Vermont Daily Chronicle reports: Vermont EV buses prove unreliable for transportation this winter Electric buses are proving unreliable this winter for Vermont’s Green Mountain Transit, as it needs to be over 41 degrees for the buses to charge, but due to a battery recall the buses are a fire hazard and can’t be charged in a garage. Spokesman for energy workers advocacy group Power the Future Larry Behrens told the Center Square: “Taxpayers were sold an $8 million ‘solution’ that can’t operate in cold weather when the home for these buses is in New England.” “We’re beyond the point where this looks like incompetence and starts to smell like fraud,” Behrens said. “When government rushes money out the door to satisfy green mandates, basic questions about performance, safety, and value for taxpayers are always pushed aside,” Behrens said. “Americans deserve to know who approved this purchase and why the red flags were ignored.” General manager at Green Mountain Transit (GMT) Clayton Clark told The Center Square that “the federal government provides public transit agencies with new buses through a competitive grant application process, and success is not a given.” ... Who could have predicted that this would not end well? Besides everyone. ... Sure, the buses don’t work and millions of taxpayer dollars were wasted, but the important thing is that progressives felt better about themselves for a little while. That’s what’s really important here, isn’t it?
