"Russia is advancing slower and slower, and Russian losses are increasing." Yet Putin still doesn't accept a ceasefire
3 years ago, Russia 🇷🇺 launched the Avdiivka offensive that slowly turned into the 3rd Donbas 🇺🇦 battle of the full-scale war 3 years later, the Russian offensive is still ongoing, at a much slower pace than before. 2026 was a very difficult year, and Russia failed to keep up the advance pace it had in 2024 and 2025, even suffering from 2 counterattacks in Komar and Lyman. If the Russian offensive on the Donbas was initially centered on the southern and western direction, it moved north, with the main battle ongoing near Dobropilla. You can easily follow the chain of towns from Kurakhove, Pokrovsk and all the way to Barvinkove, behind the Donbas fortress that Russia is attacking. At the same time, Russian advance on the Donetsk-Zaporizhzhia highway was stopped, while the one further south was slowed down. 🟥Russian control before 2024 🔴Territory taken in 2024 🟠Territory taken in 2025 🟡Territory taken in 2026 Big ⬜️ line : Donbas administrative border Small ◽️line : main roads What the map tells us : -> Setbacks in 2024 and 2025 were due to multiple factors, including bad unit coordination, absence of fortifications, and a high number of Russian human resources. Since then, most of the issues have been resolved. -> The "attritional war" narrative that should witness a slow increase of Russian gains until Ukrainian collapse didn't happen. On the contrary, Russia is advancing slower and slower, and Russian losses are increasing. Every time someone is saying Russia is definitely winning the war, show them this map and ask why the "2nd most powerful army in the world" is struggling that much in Donbas while losing more and more men.

Reuters: The winners of the elections in Serbia plan to halt arms exports to Ukraine and maintain energy ties with the Russian Federation. No comments 🤷‍♂️

Guess what… that strategy didn’t work
This past week, America's MAGA influencers have joined Europe's pro-Russian far-right in Belgrade to promote Serbia's Russia-alligned Vucic regime ahead of elections. All traditional Kremlin narratives are represented.

An insane story about how deportations are carried out in the US
“It feels really empty without him,” says 16-year-old Corey Diawara, whose father was deported in July. His father had lived in the U.S. for 25 years and had no criminal record. Moussa Diawara says he was deported without being able to speak to his lawyer or a judge. He was eventually sent to Mali, a country a U.S. immigration judge ruled he could not be deported to. In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security told 60 Minutes that Ghana had provided the U.S. with “diplomatic assurances for his safety.” DHS also questioned the credibility of Diawara’s arguments for fearing persecution in Mali. cbsn.ws/4etdVdW

People from these countries are not immigrants. They are expats 😄
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Donald Trump says US should prioritize immigrants from Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

❗️Vučić acknowledged defeat in the parliamentary elections in Serbia. The list of candidates supported by the student protest movement won. Serbia will be more democratic now? 🤔

Every European election triggers the same ritual: an entire division of right-wing voices suddenly drops in and rallies behind the latest wannabe dictator

Russians found a convenient tool to project power: Cucker Tarlson 🤷‍♂️
Tucker Carlson thinks there’s a 50 per cent chance Putin will use a nuclear weapon in the next six months — “believe me, I talk to the Russians a lot”. Great interview by @ahauslohner ft.com/content/98417e57-fe7e…

Serbia has free public transportation? Is it true @grok?
In the NYC Subway you get harassed & even get burned alive. Serbia has free & public transportation. No Africans & illegals urinating or following you at night waiting to rob you.

The next WH press secretary 😂
Not every country has to become the same. Serbia is Christian and European — women here are free without the hijab. Keep it that way.
