Added 2023-01-28 04:21:22 +0000 UTCYesterday, Russia fired 55 missiles into Ukraine, 47 of which were shot down by our air defense systems. This is a very good result. Critical infrastructure facilities have again become targets for missiles. In Odessa, Russian missiles destroyed 2 distribution hubs, causing massive power outages throughout the city.
Rockets also flew into my city - Vinnitsa, but the rockets were destroyed. The wreckage of one of them fell about 5 km from my house, the explosion was heard throughout the city.
Intelligence now captures missile departures at the time of launch and reports what it flies where, so that everyone is ready and in cover. However, when explosions rumble over the city, it is difficult to remain calm.
Unfortunately, as a result of this shelling, 11 Ukrainian civilians were killed.
A terrible tragedy occurred on January 14 in Dnepropetrovsk, a Russian missile purposefully hit a 9-story residential building, more than 40 people died, and 20 more could not be found. Russia is a terrorist country.
----------------------------------------------------------
There are no changes at the front this month, the weather does not allow both sides to actively fight and advance.
The good news is that we are supported by most of the countries of the world and quite recently a common decision was made to give us modern tanks. We will receive 31 M1 Abrams, about 100 Panthers, 60 PT-91s and 14 Challenger 2s. The training of our soldiers has already begun. Training lasts at least 3 months, which means that in the middle of spring we will have the opportunity to counterattack and return our territories.
Around the spring, the Russians are also planning offensive operations. They have about 100-150 thousand freshly mobilized soldiers who are now being trained.
In the spring, it looks like there will be serious fights. We will see.
Today the taxi driver told me that his son is a military man and serves near Kharkov. He said that after the fighting, Ukrainian soldiers collect the corpses of Russians and then they are sent by train to Russia, through some station, where there is an agreement on the transfer of the dead fighters. So the Russians did not accept the last such batch of 3 wagons, but simply shot these wagons with shells. The corpses were scattered at a distance of more than 100 meters. They did this so that there was no report on how many soldiers died. To hide losses. In order not to pay compensation to the families of the dead soldiers later. What to do next with the dead Russians is not yet clear, the Russians refuse to take them. This soldier said that about 600 Russian soldiers die every day.
I don't know how true this is. Taxi drivers love to tell stories. I'm just telling you what I heard.
The children again went to the schools of our city. Schools were reorganized, they received underground shelters, next to the school, a place was allocated for each class. I don't know if this is good or bad. On the one hand, children must learn as a team, go to school, on the other hand, it is more dangerous.
Constant power cuts during the day interfere with work. I slept all day to work at night.
Such news lately.
