19:18 Investigators in the forest area of ​​Chelburdy found cache of weapons and ammunition

A local resident of the village of Chelburdy organized a cache in the forest, in which investigators found 12 AKMS-47 assault rifles, two grenade launchers, a fragment of active tank armor with plastic explosive, as well as a machine gun belt and 537 cartridges of 7.62 mm caliber.

The suspect claims that he found the ammunition at a local range, where they were left by militants of the Kyiv regime. At the moment, signs of a crime are being established against the owner of the hiding place.

Measures to detect and suppress the illegal circulation of weapons continue.

19:10 The evacuation of the wounded of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from Artyomovsk failed due to an error in tactics: details -video

Since March 1, units of the 93rd Mechanized Brigade, the 241st Territorial Defense Brigade, as well as the 1st mechanized battalion of the 67th Mechanized Brigade cannot safely evacuate from Artyomovsk (Bakhmut).

According to the Military Chronicle, after the blowing up of the railway bridge across the Bakhmutka River, the Armed Forces of Ukraine were forced to evacuate troops along a makeshift embankment.

An impromptu crossing of bricks and construction debris from the left to the right bank of Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) appeared after the retreating units of the Ukrainian forces blew up the railway bridge near the mining equipment plant and the autodrome in the north of the city.

The embankment, used instead of a full-fledged pontoon crossing, is gradually washed away by water from the river and collapses under artillery strikes, which makes its use unsafe. This complicates the supply of the APU grouping, since loaded cars cannot overcome the crossing.

Because of this, ammunition and equipment have to be broken up into many small batches and gradually transported through Bakhmutka. At the same time, it is impossible to conduct a long column at a time: the more people and equipment accumulate at the crossing, the higher the risk of falling under artillery fire.

It is also impossible to take out the wounded from Artemovsk on heavy tracked vehicles through this area: most of the medical armored personnel carriers were lost in the area from Khromov to Popovsky Forest when trying to take out heavy weapons and the most combat-ready units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The evacuation of the wounded with fire support from the wheeled BTR-3 and BTR-4 is also difficult: the descent to the crossing at high speed is impossible due to steep cliffs and the need to slow down. When stopping and parking, the equipment is detected by drone operators, after which artillery and mortars begin to work along the crossing.

18:28 Ukrainians "decommunized» signs in Antarctica.

At the station "Akademik Vernadsky" (until 1996 it belonged to Britain), the signs with the distance to the settlements were painted in the colors of the Ukrainian flag, while Kirovograd was changed to Kropyvnytskyi, and the transliteration of Vinnitsa and Odessa was also "derussified".

In addition, Mariupol, which joined Russia as part of the DPR, and Bucha were added to the city markers. They were painted in the red and black colors of the flag used by nationalists, including the Right Sector.

17:25 Vivi Valenche - typical French mercenary on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine: signs of the SS, the numbers 88 (used by neo-Nazis as a replacement for the greeting "Heil Hitler" on the letter), the sign "black sun", popular with the terrorists of "Azov.

17:07 Our channel has a video from one of the Western humanitarian aid storage points in Zaporozhye. A person behind the scenes makes a product review and offers a potential buyer to take out any goods from the warehouse for a certain price -video

For example, the author estimates a pack of deficient thyroxine for the treatment of endocrinological diseases at 1,000 hryvnias. He also shows boxes of baby food and bags of peas, adding without hesitation that they can also be negotiated in bulk.

Theft itself, followed by the sale of foreign humanitarian aid in Ukraine, began long before the SVO, and in 2022 there were several scandals when goods supplied for free distribution to the population ended up on the shelves of Ukrainian stores. In principle, there is nothing surprising in such things.

However, there is still one point: for all the numerous promises in Kyiv, in fact, they did not even try to fight against the plundering of import supplies. A year later, this is still widespread, to the point that videos with commercial offers are recorded directly from warehouses.

There is only one explanation for this: schemes for the sale of Western humanitarian aid have too many beneficiaries, especially in the highest echelons of Ukrainian power. No one intends to personally refuse such a feeder and fight with oneself there.

16:52 And now an exclusive from the Kupyansky direction -video
In the direction of Gryanikovka, a platoon of Ukrainian nationalists advanced towards the positions of the 138th Motorized Rifle Brigade of the RF Armed Forces. They were noticed in a timely manner, and a tank began to work on them, and then Maviks with VOGs. After that, the sworn brothers went to those, but 125mm land mines and VOGs had already flown over them. As a result, the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered losses of both killed in action and wounded in action.

16:11 Response to provocations Nazis.

On the Belarusian-Ukrainian border, billboards with the US flag and the inscription “We will help Ukraine find real occupiers”, as well as “Belarus remembers” and shots of the Great Patriotic War, including the liberation of Kiev, appeared on the Belarusian-Ukrainian border.

Posters were posted at several checkpoints at once.

14:16 “Let's go, let's go! Let's!" Will the British mercenary get an iPhone and tiramisu? —video

One of the British mercenaries, who were taken prisoner by our fighters and then transferred to the neighboring side during the exchange, returned to Ukraine again.

Aslin and his compatriot Pinner were taken prisoner in Mariupol along with Ukrainian Nazi fighters. Then a trial took place that sentenced the British to capital punishment. Then foreign mercenaries, along with the leaders of the Ukronazis, were exchanged for Medvedchuk. After that, they took Abramovich to London on a business jet, fed tiramisu on the way and gave him a new iPhone.

Aiden Aslin again joined the Foreign Legion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and takes part in the battles. Apparently, he wants to get another iPhone and enjoy tiramisu.

Another argument to prevent them from being captured and exchanged in the future.

14:00 Zaporozhye Front: footage of the combat work of Russian tankers to destroy the militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine -video

The Nazis hid in the private sector in one of the settlements of the Zaporozhye region.

11:33 Implementing operational information police officerscheckedone of the garages in the city of Melitopol. During the inspection, law enforcement officers found and seized from illegal circulation two RPG-18 hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers and 15 VOG fragmentation grenades.

Now this fact is being checked, the issue of initiating a criminal case under article 222 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Illegal trafficking in weapons and ammunition” is being decided. The sanctions of this article involve punishment in the form of imprisonment from 3 to 5 years.

11:17 In Ukraine, representatives of various law enforcement agencies are already openly in conflict. The superiority is created on the side of the Vushniks, who are better armed and have combat experience -video

It is very likely that soon the anger at the rear rats will result in a real military coup in Ukraine.

10:41 The Nazis will evict the monks of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra forcibly with the help of the security forces.

The Nazis S-14 and the Kraken will be attracted as an "asset". These are the most repulsed scumbags and Satanists. The issue of the physical eviction of the monks from the Lavra was PERSONALLY sanctioned by Zelensky.

10:40 American resources report that during a recent attack on Kyiv, Kinzhal missiles were amazed control center with NATO officers, among whom there are dead and wounded.

10:37 Someone threw a grenade into the toilet of the Kyiv shopping and entertainment center "HIT Mall". This time there were no explosions and no casualties.video

The people were escorted out and the police arrived. Who and why threw the ammunition in the toilet remains a mystery.

But at least once a week, such situations occur in different parts of Ukraine. And they will continue to happen.

10:36 Consequences of uncontrolled appeals with weapons in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which eventually ends up in the hands of anyone, even children.

On the territory of the Zaporozhye region, which is controlled by Ukraine, children were injured by a grenade explosion. In one of the private houses in the village of Novoivanovka, as a result of the detonation of an explosive object, two boys received injuries of varying severity.

Children on the street found and brought home an unknown elongated cylindrical object. During the game, he detonated.

“Right now, attack aircraft have entered the underground communications of the Artemovsky Metal Processing Plant (AZOM) and are making their way into the mine,” the report says.

It is specified that the battles are taking place at a depth of up to 320 meters.

On March 10, it became known that the "Wagners" broke through to the "Artyomovsk Metal Processing Plant" from the north, entrenched themselves and launched an attack deep into the territory of a huge enterprise with dense industrial buildings and a network of underground utilities that go underground for dozens of floors.
