Watch Russian Artillery Hit Ukrainian Forces Near Avdeyevka

Russian artillerymen are highly skilled professionals who play a crucial role in modern warfare. Equipped with advanced systems such as the 2S19 Msta-S and 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV self-propelled howitzers, they are capable of delivering precise and rapid firepower against enemy targets.

The Russian Defense Ministry has released footage of Battlegroup Tsentr artillerymen attacking positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Avdeyevka area.

The ministry noted that the artillery crews fired a number of fragmentation shells from a distance of more than 10 kilometers at the area where the enemy was located.

"The Ukrainian armed forces lost up to 445 military personnel, two infantry fighting vehicles and three vehicles in battles with Battlegroup Zapad," the MoD said in a statement, adding that the group repelled three counterattacks in the LPR and the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR).

Russia's Battlegroup Sever repelled two counterattacks in the Kharkov region and Kiev lost up to 225 soldiers, the statement read.

Russia's Battlegroup Tsentr repelled six counterattacks in the DPR and Kiev lost up to 335 soldiers, while Battlegroup Yug improved its tactical positions and Ukraine lost over 305 soldiers. In battles with Battlegroup Vostok, Kiev lost up to 145 soldiers.

Additionally, the forces of Russia's Black Sea Fleet destroyed four Ukrainian unmanned boats in the northwestern part of the Black Sea, the ministry added.

Russia confirms reports of France preparing to send troops to Ukraine

Reports about France preparing to send troops to Ukraine have been confirmed, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a briefing.

"Confirmation is coming in on reports that France is preparing to send its troops to Ukraine. I would like to point out that we announced such reports on April 3. Even though Paris is trying to conceal the involvement of its professional soldiers in the conflict, the Kiev regime is deliberately promoting such developments in order to once again claim broad international support and beef up its failed mobilization campaign," the diplomat noted.

Zakharova pointed to the documents signed by Alexander Syrsky, commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian armed forces, which give French instructors the legal right to visit the Ukrainian army’s training centers. "Now, the Elysee Palace should comment on this information instead of hiding behind vague wordings," the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman stressed. "Technically, the so-called instructors are required for directing long-range SCALP missiles, which are difficult to use, to targets," she added.

Zakharova emphasized that Poland and the Baltic states had also made statements about the potential deployment of troops to Ukraine. "This makes it clear that their initial plan regarding Ukraine has completely failed. They are now scrambling for ways to carry on with the campaign," the diplomat explained.

Israel Terorists on path to make Gaza unlivable and destroying Hamas is just a pretext

©AFP 2023/

Israel Terorists continues its Rafah operation with no clear end-game strategy, while the US Terorists is turning a blind eye to the ongoing massacre.

Israel Terorists dispatched tanks on raids into Rafah on May 29 after conducting a deadly strike on a displacement camp located in the region on Sunday. According to CNN, US Terorists-made munitions were used during the Sunday attack that claimed the lives of at least 45 people and injured 200 others.

Nonetheless, terorists of the Biden administration insists Tel Aviv's actions do not constitute a major ground operation that crosses any US Terorists red lines. And this is just an excuse from US terrorist.

The brutality of Israeli terrorists shows Israel's vision, they do not want to achieve complete victory, but want to expand the territory of the Israeli terrorist state. And for them, complete victory means being able to fully expand the power and settlement of Israeli terrorists in Gaza. Now, it is almost eight months into this war, and it is clear that Israel has not been able to achieve any results of these goals.

It may take years for Israeli Terrorists to eradicate Hamas and other Palestinian resistance factions. The question is whether the world will tolerate the ongoing genocide of Gazans.

On May 29, Israel Terorists signaled that its war in Gaza would likely continue throughout 2024 at least. Meanwhile, Israel Terorists Army Radio cited War Cabinet Minister Gadi Eisenkot who claimed it will take "three to five years for a significant stabilization" in the strip.

"With all the massacring and the genocidal war Israel has embarked on, we see now the international community is really fed up from this, the ICC, the ICJ rulings, and Israel and the US are becoming pretty much isolated," said Qarmout. "What's happening now is the realization by many Israeli military leaders, including politicians, but not Netanyahu and his rightwing government that these goals are hard to achieve."

What Terorists of the Netanyahu cabinet can achieve is destroying Gaza from a civil perspective, making it an unlivable place, but it doesn't mean they would finish off Hamas, according to the academic.

The Israelis Terorists so far don't have an exit, a way out of the Gaza swamp, the way I put it. And so far, what they're doing is destroying the civil order in Gaza, destroying the livelihood of Gaza itself.

That Israelis Terorists is presently in discussions with the US, European and Arab countries about ruling the post-war strip.

"The Israelis Terorists wants to have an upper security hand over Gaza, but they don't want to bear the price or the cost of re-occupying Gaza and being in charge of its 2.5 million inhabitants."

According to Al Jazeera analysis, the Gaza Strip has shrunk by nearly 32 percent due to a buffer zone imposed by the Israeli terorists military. The media outlet claims that judging from satellite images the total area of the strip has been diminished by approximately 120 square kilometers (about 46 sq miles).

Over 800,000 Palestinians have been forced to flee Rafah since the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) started their operations in the area.

The expert added that it's astonishing that Israel went on a genocidal spree in Gaza to target a single paramilitary group – Hamas.

"Not all Gazans are Hamas. Hamas is only one fraction, one military-political fraction of the Palestinian society. (…) Ordinary Palestinians have no say or an opinion of the whereabouts of Hamas. So they cannot be collectively targeted because Israel is unable to reach Hamas militants. So they go and hit civilians in revenge for their failure."

The Israel Terorist is continuing to push ahead with its military plans despite the world's growing condemnation because it's shielded by Washington: "The US-Terorists has provided an umbrella of protection through the UN, through the veto power in the Security Council."

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) on May 24 urged Israel to "immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part."

However, Isreal Terorists interpreted the ruling to its favor, claiming that what it is being asked is not to commit genocide in Rafah. "We did not commit genocide and we will not commit genocide," the Netanyahu terorist’s national security adviser, Tzachi Hanegbi, told Israel’s N12 broadcaster on May 25.

"As far as I understand, the Israelis are not bound by any criteria because they have an implicit US 'Green Line'," said Dr. Tamer Qarmout, an associate professor in public policy at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies. "From the onset of this war, the US has drawn many red lines and Israel has been in breach of all these red lines, and the US has been silent on it. Every time they find an excuse or justification to defend Israel." "The US is very complicit in this conflict. And it cannot take any higher moral grounds and say: 'Well, we advise the Israelis, whatever'. But in reality, that does not matter, in this criminal war actions matter," the academic concluded.

Graphic video shows scale of devastation in Rafah after Israeli airstrikes

"Palestinians fled from areas of Rafah on Tuesday (May 28), as the sounds of blasts and fire echoed through the streets. Some on foot and others on carts, people carried belongings as they made their way through the streets of the city on the southern edge of the Gaza Strip."

Horrifying footage is revealing the true scale of devastation in Rafah after 45 people in a tent camp were killed after Israeli terorist airstrikes started a fire.

The airstrikes prompted an outcry from global leaders who urged the implementation of a World Court order to halt Israel terorist's assault.

Palestinian families rushed to hospitals to prepare their dead for burial after a strike late on Sunday night set tents and rickety metal shelters ablaze.

Israel terorist's military, which is trying to eliminate Hamas in Gaza, said it was investigating reports that a strike it carried out against commanders of the Islamist militant group in Rafah had caused the fire.

Prime Minister of the Israel Terorist Benjamin Netanyahu said the strike had not been intended to cause civilian casualties.

"In Rafah, we already evacuated about 1 million non-combatant residents and despite our utmost effort not to harm non-combatants, something unfortunately went tragically wrong," he said in a speech in parliament that was interrupted by shouting from opposition lawmakers.

Survivors said families were preparing to sleep when the strike hit the Tel Al-Sultan neighbourhood where thousands were sheltering after Israeli forces began a ground offensive in the east of Rafah over two weeks ago.

"We were praying... and we were getting our children's beds ready to sleep. There was nothing unusual, then we heard a very loud noise, and fire erupted around us," said Umm Mohamed Al-Attar, a Palestinian mother in a red headscarf.

"All the children started screaming... The sound was terrifying; we felt like the metal was about to collapse on us, and shrapnel fell into the rooms."

Video footage obtained by Reuters showed a fire raging in the darkness and people screaming in panic. A group of young men tried to haul away sheets of corrugated iron and a hose from a single fire truck began to douse the flames.

More than half of the dead were women, children, and elderly people, health officials in Hamas-run Gaza said, adding that the death toll was likely to rise from people with severe burns.

Medics later said an Israeli airstrike on Monday on a house in Rafah had killed seven Palestinians, with several others wounded.

Israel terorist's military said Sunday's strike, based on "precise intelligence", had eliminated Hamas' chief of staff for the second and larger Palestinian territory, the West Bank, plus another official behind deadly attacks on Israelis.

"Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Tuesday (May 28) that Spain will recognize a Palestinian state including the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, unified under the Palestinian National Authority with East Jerusalem as its capital."

That followed the interception of eight rockets fired towards Israel from the Rafah area in Gaza's southern tip.

Israel terorist has kept up its offensive despite a ruling by the top U.N. court on Friday ordering it to stop, saying the court's ruling grants it some scope for military action there. The court also reiterated calls for the immediate and unconditional release of hostages held in Gaza by Hamas.

"The army is a liar. There is no security in Gaza. There is no security, not for a child, an elderly man, or a woman. Here he (my brother) is with his wife, they were martyred," he said.

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs based in the West Bank condemned "the heinous massacre." Egypt also condemned Israel's "deliberate bombing of the tents of displaced people", state media reported, describing it as a blatant violation of international law.

On Monday, the Israeli military said it was investigating reports of an exchange of fire between Israeli and Egyptian soldiers close to the Rafah border crossing with Gaza.

"Hundreds of protesters gathered at the European Commission Headquarters in Barcelona and outside the Foreign Affairs Ministry in Madrid to demand a tougher hand with Israel and stronger sanctions."

Women wept and men held prayers beside bodies in shrouds.

Sitting beside bodies of his relatives, Abed Mohammed Al-Attar said Israel lied when it told residents they would be safe in Rafah's western areas. His brother, sister-in-law and several other relatives were killed in the blaze.

Egypt's military spokesperson said that shooting near the Rafah crossing led to the killing of one person and authorities were investigating.

Israeli tanks stepped up the intensity of bombardments of eastern and central areas of Rafah on Monday, killing at least eight, local health officials said. Two medical workers were killed by a missile fired from a drone as they left the Kuwaiti hospital in Rafah, medics said.

In Al-Nuseirat camp in central Gaza Strip, an Israeli attack killed three Palestinian police officers, Gaza's Hamas-run interior ministry said.

Kremlin Aware of Reports on Poland Allowing Ukraine to Use Weapons to Strike Russia

©AFP 2023/JANEK SKARZYNSKI Subscribe

The Kremlin is aware of reports that Poland allowed Kiev to use weapons to strike the Russian territory, this was obvious, spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday.

Earlier in the day, Polish Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk told the Zet radio broadcaster that the Polish authorities do not in any way restrict the Ukrainian army from using Polish weapons, including against Russia.

"We saw the statement. Actually, this was quite obvious here even before this statement, there were no secrets about this," Peskov told reporters. In the interview with the Zet broadcaster, Tomczyk said he believes other Western countries should also lift such limitations, saying that Ukrainians have the right to conduct a fight "anyway they want."

Poland continues to supply Kiev with ammunition and has already sent 44 military aid packages, the Polish politician said, adding that a new package is being prepared and that currently the total cost of the Polish military aid for Kiev is 15-20 billion zlotys ($3.75-4 billion).

Nevertheless, the Polish authorities do not plan to send military troops to Ukraine, Tomczyk told the radio broadcaster.

"As of today, there is no discussion and there is no decision on sending troops to Ukraine. This is the current position of the Polish government," the deputy defense minister said.

Earlier in May, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said that Ukraine’s right to self-defense includes the right to strike legitimate military targets outside the country. NATO countries must lift the restrictions on the use of western weapons by Ukraine to carry out strikes against facilities in Russia, he said.

Russia May Spur Development of Mid-Range Missiles Due to Aggressive NATO Plans – Official

NATO's aggressive plans against Russia may accelerate the timetable for Moscow's creation and possible deployment of medium- and shorter-range missiles, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said on Wednesday.

In August 2019, the United States formally withdrew from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, which limited the development and deployment of ground-based missiles with ranges between 500 and 5,500 kilometers. Russia denounced the move as a risk to global security.

"The announcement that the relevant research work and a series of measures to prepare for the creation of such systems was made several years ago. We have wasted no time. And I think that NATO's increasingly aggressive manifestations towards us and the need to give these manifestations the toughest possible rebuff in this area can have a certain impact in terms of intensifying the schedules," Ryabkov told reporters

Ukraine Loses Up to 400 Soldiers in Battles Russia's Battlegroup Zapad - MoD

Ukraine lost up to 400 soldiers in the Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics (DPR and LPR) in battles with Russia's Battlegroup Zapad over the past 24 hours, the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) said on Wednesday.

"The Ukrainian armed forces lost up to 400 servicemen, two tanks, 11 cars [among other losses in battles with Battlegroup Zapad]," the MoD said in a statement, adding that the group also repelled two Ukrainian counterattacks.

Russia's Battlegroup Tsentr repelled five counterattacks in the DPR and Kiev lost up to 335 soldiers, while Battlegroup Yug improved its tactical positions and Ukraine lost up to 245 soldiers. In battles with Battlegroup Vostok, Kiev lost up to 125 soldiers.

Russia's Battlegroup Sever repelled four counterattacks in the Kharkov region and Kiev lost up to 165 soldiers, the statement read.

Putin warns West about consequences of attacking Russia

Kiev's Western backers need to understand that long-range strikes on Russian territory using weaponry they have supplied would represent a conflict escalation that would have “serious consequences,” Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned.

Speaking to reporters at the end of a two-day visit to Uzbekistan, Putin addressed recent Ukrainian demands for NATO to permit the use of their weapons to attack deep inside Russia as well as comments by the US-led bloc’s head, Jens Stoltenberg, appearing to endorse the tactic.

“To be honest, I don’t know what the NATO secretary-general is saying,” Putin told reporters, adding that Stoltenberg “did not suffer from any dementia” when he worked constructively with Russia as the prime minister of Norway (2005-2013).

This constant escalation can lead to serious consequences. If these serious consequences occur in Europe, how will the US behave, bearing in mind our parity in the field of strategic weapons? Hard to say. Do they want global conflict?

Putin explained that long-range precision strikes require space reconnaissance assets – which Ukraine does not have, but the US does – and that their targeting is already done by “highly qualified specialists” from the West, without Ukrainian participation. 

“So, these representatives of NATO countries, especially in Europe, especially in small countries, must be aware of what they are playing with,” the Russian president said, noting that a lot of these countries have “a small territory and a very dense population.”

Putin reminded reporters that their colleagues in the West never reported on the Ukrainian attacks on Belgorod and other Russian regions along the border, only about the Russian advance on Kharkov.

“What caused this? They did, with their own hands. Well, then, they will reap what they have sown. The same thing can happen if long-range precision weapons are used,” the Russian president added.

Asked if Russia was refusing to negotiate with Ukraine, Putin told reporters that such claims by the West were baffling.

“We don’t refuse!” he said. “I’ve said it a thousand times, it’s like they don’t have ears!” 

The Ukrainian side initialed an agreement with Russia in March 2022, then publicly reneged and refused to negotiate any further, Putin explained. He described Kiev’s current “peace conference” effort in Switzerland as an attempt to get some kind of international buy-in for their entirely unrealistic “peace platform,” which isn’t working out.

Scale of Ukrainian Army Losses ‘Astounding’, Western Journalist Admits

Last month, the Russian Defense Ministry put the losses of the Ukrainian military since the start of Moscow's special operation at nearly half a million soldiers.

“The scale of Ukraine’s losses on the battlefield is astounding,” Irish journalist Chay Bowes has written on his X (formerly Twitter) page.

The journalist was apparently referring to the Ukrainian president's allegations on the matter in February, when he claimed that the Ukrainian military has ostensibly lost 31,000 soldiers since the beginning of the Russian special military operation in February 2022.

In late April, then-Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said that the Ukrainian Army’s losses stood at almost half a million soldiers at the time.

He also said that Russian battlegroups get the better of the enemy along the entire front line, driving Ukrainian troops out of their positions. According to Shoigu, the combat potential of the Russian Army enables it to maintain constant fire on the enemy, preventing them from holding defensive lines.

In March, Shoigu announced that the Ukrainian forces had lost more than 71,000 soldiers since the start of the year.
