Today is the 11th anniversary of the start of war in the Donbas. It was launched on April 12th 2014 in Sloviansk by a group of around 60 special forces and paramilitary men led by the Russian GRU agent Igor ”Strelkov” Girkin. They crossed the border from Russia on April 11th and took control of the government building in Sloviansk on April 12th. Strelkov had been present in Ukraine from the start of the war, having entered Crimea on February 26th and participated in the armed storming of the Supreme Council of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea on February 27th. In March 2014, his unit stormed a photogrammetric center in Simferopol, further consolidating control over strategic locations. Strelkov was instrumental in organizing local pro-Russian militias and coordinating with Russian regular forces, particularly the so-called "little green men" (Russian special forces without insignia). Strelkov was a former officer of Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), having served until at least 2012 and was an officer of Russia’s military intelligence (GRU). He was closely linked to Sergey Aksyonov, the Russian-installed prime minister of Crimea, serving as a security aide and advisor. After Crimea, Strelkov moved to eastern Ukraine, leading a group of 52–55 armed militants across the Russian-Ukrainian border on the night of April 11–12, 2014, to seize Sloviansk, a city in Ukraine’s Donetsk region. - On April 12, 2014, his group captured key administrative buildings, including the police station, Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) offices, and city administration, declaring Sloviansk part of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR). - Strelkov established himself as the military commander of Sloviansk, organizing defenses, setting up roadblocks, and overseeing operations that included ambushes, kidnappings, and executions. - He admitted to sparking the broader Donbas War, stating, “I’m the one who pulled the trigger of war. If our unit hadn’t crossed the border, everything would have fizzled out.” - His forces engaged Ukrainian troops, killed SBU officers, and took OSCE observers hostage. Strelkov ordered the execution of several individuals, including Ukrainians Yurii Popravko, Yurii Diakovskyi, and Volodymyr Rybak. - By May 2014, he was named “commander-in-chief” and “defense minister” of the DPR, consolidating control over separatist fighters in the region. Facing intense Ukrainian military pressure, Strelkov’s forces retreated from Sloviansk to Donetsk on July 5, 2014, after which his influence waned, and he was dismissed in August 2014. It was also in August that large formations of the Russian regular army invaded the Donbas region from Russia to stop the Ukrainian Army from crushing the pro-Russian separatist forces that had taken control of some cities in the region. Strelkov later fell out with Putin, accusing him of not taking enough of Ukraine and being too weak. Strelkov was sentenced to 4 years in prison last year for ”inciting extremism” Sloviansk is still in Ukrainian hands 11 years after Strelkov’s attack and 3 years after Russia’s full-scale invasion.

[STRATEGIC ANALYSIS] Part I – POKROVSK, The Fall of the Corridor Russian forces have now been geolocated controlling Rodynske, with confirmation of their presence in Krasnyi Lyman. This narrows the Ukrainian exit corridor to roughly 5 km, leaving a single road through Rivne under sustained Russian fire control. (Maps from Julian Röpcke🇺🇦 et Poulet volant ) Losses during this retreat are expected to be significant, likely resulting in a casualty ratio below two to one, unfavorable to Ukraine. This reflects a recurrent pattern of the war: Ukrainian forces end up in semi encircled positions with limited supply routes, facing an adversary with overwhelming firepower. The result is predictable: heavy attrition and diminished operational capacity. This is not deliberate strategy by Ukraine. Having lost the initiative, the Ukrainian command is fighting without a coherent grand strategy, compelled to defend the Donbas fortress belt to delay northern Donetsk’s fall. The “meatgrinder” is a Russian concept, not a Ukrainian one. Remaining in besieged pockets to “bleed” Russian troops has never been Ukraine’s objective, as these battles consistently yield unfavorable loss ratios. Historical Context of Similar Battles 2022 1. Mariupol Roughly 3.5k POWs were captured after the final surrender. Once encircled, Ukrainian losses were catastrophic with over 1.6k KIA proven and the near total loss of defending units. 2. Sieverodonetsk Marked the first battle where Ukrainian KIA exceeded Russian, reaching up to 300 KIA per day. It introduced the pattern of partial encirclement and destruction through Russian artillery dominance. 2023 1. Bakhmut UA Losses identified 12k KIA and over 10k MIA, while Russian casualties (mostly Wagner) were estimated at 20–30k KIA. Even under the most optimistic view, that is a two to one ratio at best, achieved at the cost of elite Ukrainian formations such as the 93rd Mechanized Brigade. Between Dec 2022 and Apr 2023, losses totaled 9.6k Ukrainian vs 18.8k Russian theater wide, confirming the ratio. Yet Russian losses consisted mainly of expendable conscripts, leaving Ukraine strategically weakened. Further losses followed during the May–Sept 2023 counteroffensive, especially near Klishiivka, worsening the overall balance. 2. Avdiivka The October 2023 offensive caused high casualties on both sides, continuing until the collapse in Feb 2024. Mediazona recorded 20.1k Russian KIA front wide, while UA Losses listed 9k KIA, mostly in Avdiivka.The 110th Mechanized Brigade was virtually destroyed. Even at best, the 2 to 1 ratio ended with the fall of Ukraine’s most fortified Donbas city. 2024–2025 1. Kursk (Defensive Posture) During Ukraine’s incursion and Russia’s counterattack, Ukrainian forces were trapped around Sudja, repeating the attritional pattern. Losses reached 3k KIA and 11k MIA, with 30% higher armored losses than Russia’s. Russian logistics and command ensured a tighter, lower cost victory. 2. Pokrovsk, Kupyansk, Kostyantynivka, and Others By mid 2025, siege battles across Pokrovsk, Kupyansk, and Kostyantynivka followed identical dynamics: local encirclements, exhausted defenders, restricted supply.Russian forces shifted to small assault groups and infiltration tactics, reducing casualties while sustaining pressure. Ukrainian armor losses rose sharply during the 2025 summer, reflecting logistical strain. Operationally, attrition became increasingly one sided, as Russia paired methodical advances with resource discipline and fire control. Clausewitz warned of late withdrawals: “Reason counsels not to risk the last upon the game, but to retain as much as is necessary for an orderly retreat.” #UkraineRussiaWar️ #Pokrovsk #Warfare

🇺🇦TODAY' UKRAINE - THE CONSEQUENCE OF 12 YEARS OF TOTAL IDIOCY Zelensky is flying, probably, to one of the most important meetings not only in his political career but in the entire modern history of Ukraine - with Donald Trump Donald J. Trump , who wants and demands the signing of a full and comprehensive peace agreement. Ukraine approaches this meeting on the brink of default: economic, military, and social. How did we get to such a state? Here’s how: February 21, 2014 - the collapse of Yanukovych’s agreement with the opposition, signed under the mediation of the foreign ministers of Germany, France, and Poland. This becomes the trigger for Russia’s seizure of Crimea, while the Ukrainian authorities simply watch and do nothing. Result: loss of Crimea. May 25, 2014 - Poroshenko wins the presidential elections under the slogans of peace. Almost immediately, he orders an offensive in Donbas. After initial successes by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Russia intervenes, leading to encirclement near Ilovaisk. On September 5, Poroshenko signs Minsk-1. Result: loss of strategic initiative, consolidation of the loss of part of Donbas, weakening of presidential power. February 12, 2015 - signing of Minsk-2 after the defeat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at Debaltseve, caused by the failure to implement Minsk-1 agreements. Result: acceptance of worse conditions, recognition of the special status of the ORDLO regions. April 21, 2019 - Zelensky defeats Poroshenko in the presidential elections, promising to implement the Minsk agreements and “negotiate for peace even with the devil himself.” In practice, he maintains the predecessor’s course, the Minsk agreements remain unfulfilled. Zelensky escalates confrontation with demonstrative actions. Result: loss of trust in the negotiation process, intensification of escalation. February 24, 2022 - Russia launches a full-scale invasion, after which negotiations immediately begin — first in Belarus, then in Turkey. On March 29, in Istanbul, a draft agreement is presented (neutrality, international security guarantees, the Crimea issue deferred for 15 years). On April 19, Zelensky refuses to sign this draft. Result: loss of parts of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Luhansk, Donetsk, and Kharkiv regions. 2025 - Ukraine approaches negotiations mediated by the American president. According to Donald Trump, Ukraine has no leverage in these negotiations: the army is exhausted, the economy destroyed, and a significant part of the territory already lost. And we still do not even know what Russia is demanding. Zelensky’s refusal of Trump’s peace initiatives will be the point of another attempt to obtain independence for Ukraine. A point set by incompetent leaders and indifferent citizens who do not know and do not understand how to defend their rights. Although, having long relied on Americans, they could have learned at least this from them. Mr. Trump, do not let Zelensky continue the war. Simply - do not let it happen. Thank you on behalf of the entire Ukrainian people. God bless you! Rapid Response 47 The White House President Donald J. Trump Marco Rubio Steve Witkoff Special Envoy Steve Witkoff Rep.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 UKRAINE’S U.S. AMBASSADOR ON THE CORRUPTION SCANDAL, THE FAILED PEACE TALKS, & RUSSIA’S MILITARY ADVANCEMENTS Ukrainian Ambassador to the U.S., Olga Stefanishyna, says the latest wave of U.S.-Russia-China diplomacy is not a step toward peace. It is a stage where Putin is signaling endurance, shaping narratives, and dragging the war into territory where time weakens Ukraine and fractures the West. Behind every “development,” she says, is a deeper strategic play. We get into: •⁠ ⁠Why Putin’s threats over Donbas were aimed directly at the U.S. delegation, not Ukraine •⁠ ⁠Why China’s parallel meeting in Moscow was a strategic watchdog move, not peace outreach •⁠ ⁠Why the U.S.-Russia talks produced no meaningful progress even after five hours •⁠ ⁠Why Russia’s demands on NATO membership are political theater for a domestic audience •⁠ ⁠How abducted Ukrainian children are being used as a narrative weapon in negotiations •⁠ ⁠Why European leaders fear the U.S. could cut a territorial deal without security guarantees •⁠ ⁠How Ukraine sees U.S. security guarantees as equal in power to NATO membership •⁠ ⁠Why Russia’s delay tactics become more dangerous the longer they continue Her warning is blunt. Russia is not negotiating. Russia is maneuvering. If Ukraine bends under pressure, she says Russia will emerge emboldened and backed by China, Iran, and North Korea. If Ukraine holds, the strategic map of Europe may shift for an entire generation. This is one of the defining geopolitical tests of our time. And the decisions made next will echo far beyond Ukraine’s borders. 01:15 – Putin threatens to take Donbas by force or surrender 02:27 – Putin signals to US delegation that intentions are rock solid 03:40 – China provides financial and component backing to Russia 05:05 – China’s representative in Moscow acts as a watchdog 05:12 – Five-hour US–Russia meeting centered on territorial issues 06:25 – Main sticking points are Donbas territory and NATO neutrality 07:00 – Russia frames the conflict as a war against NATO and the US 08:06 – Ukraine ready to freeze on the existing line for a ceasefire 09:16 – US security guarantee seen as equal in power to NATO membership 10:12 – Are business figures like Wyckoff and Kushner appropriate negotiators 12:09 – Rubio versus Wyckoff tactics: formal process vs special line of contact 13:34 – Leaks portray Wyckoff as leaning toward the Russian side 17:15 – Russia’s goals backfire as Ukraine adopts NATO standards 18:26 – Non-negotiable issues include sovereignty and return of children 23:09 – Russia described as in military agony, flexing on cities 24:32 – Trump suggests the US will eventually betray Ukraine 26:25 – Pokrovsky battle unlikely to change the front overall 28:27 – Ukrainians expect little and are prepared for anything 29:41 – Russia using delay tactics; little hope for new sanctions 32:00 – Destroying the shadow fleet is the only immediately enforceable move 33:55 – Russian strikes hit houses, theaters, and kindergartens to demoralize 34:51 – Zelensky aide Yermak allegedly tied to corruption scheme 40:29 – Zelensky said to be absolutely not involved in the scandal
