The war in Ukraine is first and foremost a mass event. In addition to crises, such events also bring opportunities. For Eastern Europe, it is an opportunity to trade equipment.

Washington continues to support the AFU, as it has done for the past ten years, just in a more open manner and on a larger scale. Major developments took place on the front lines near Izyum. In recent days, several villages to the northwest of Izyum in the Kharkiv region have come under the control of Russian forces.

VT believes a missile was fired from the US air base in Romania guided by American AEGIS radar in Constanza.

“The task was to take the settlements and provide a corridor for our armed forces to pass further to the south.... When the AFU saw our tanks, they just raised their guns up and there was no firing."

After the withdrawal of Russian forces from the Kiev and Chenihov regions, pressure on the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the Donbass front lines increased.

The Russian Ministry of Defense said that Kiev’s information about the mass killings in Bucha was not true, and that the footage was staged.

After the defeat of the first set of Ukrainian defense forces, local authorities immediately began the second “call.” The total number of recruits of the second wave has already reached the desired three thousand.

“The Pentagon in Ukraine has actively built two biological military laboratories and has been developing pathogens there. Now they are worried that they will lose control over these laboratories,” Lavrov said.

According to internal documents, Pentagon contractors were given full access to all Ukrainian biolaboratories which handled dangerous pathogens, while independent experts were denied even a visit. The new revelations challenge the U.S. government statement that the Pentagon just funded biolaboratories in Ukraine but had nothing to do with them.

There were significant changes in the configuration of combat forces on the fronts. Russia was rotating units and bringing fresh assault units forward amid intense work of artillery and aviation. At the same time, Kiev continued to withdraw its units from the Donbass region towards Zaporizhya, Dnipro and Kiev, but stubbornly defending well-fortified positions in the region.

Morning Star: CONCERNS have been raised after what appeared to be British-made anti tank missiles that were paraded in the besieged city of Kharkiv by members of the neonazi Azov Battalion, a Ukrainian fascist militia.

SouthFront: The last few days were marked by active offensive operations of Russian forces in the region of Donbas as well as a new demonstration of the anti-human posture of the Kyiv government towards its own citizens.

Russian troops are on the northern outskirts of Kharkiv and bypass it from the southeast. They regularly deliver precise strikes on places where pro-Kiev forces are concentrated. In response, Ukrainian units used rocket launchers, some deployed in residential areas.

On March 2, Russian forces are carrying out targeted strikes on the military facilities and hideouts of the Ukrainian military in Kharkiv.
