“Solntsepyok” ignited by a precise FPV drone strike from the border guards 🔥

On the Vovchansk front, fighters from “Forpost” successfully disabled a Russian “Solntsepyok” heavy flamethrower system. The brigade emphasizes that destroying such equipment significantly weakens the enemy’s artillery capabilities.

My first months on Lemmy were spent on Lemmy.world, which was the biggest instance at the time. I had no experience with Hexbear because .world had defederated that instance. I sometimes saw it being described as a "tankie" instance, but it was nothing specific.

After I moved to .zip, I came across !games@hexbear.net, which seemed to be free from anything overtly political and reminded me of r/Gamingcirclejerk, so I subscribed to it and occasionally made comments related to gaming.

Today I made multiple comments to a post about an article on the STALKER game developers having removed the Soviet symbols and the Russian audio in the remastered edition of the game. I would argue that in the thread, there were no comments from me that could be construed by a reasonable person as defensive of Nazism, fascism, or even hinting at it. For example, in one of the comments, I linked a Ukrainian law that prohibits the use of Nazi symbols, though I highly advise looking through all my ten comments as to avoid any misunderstanding or false impressions.

Conversely, one comment posted by another user dismissed Holodomor as Nazi propaganda, which I reported, but a moderator of that community just ended up calling me out for that and taking no action, followed by them banning me.

The thread containing all of my untouched posts is still available via lemmy.zip. My comments are also available for viewing via my user page. They are not available on hexbear due to the ban.

💥 Drones and equipment worth over ₴26 million — GUR soldiers received aid from the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration

⚔️ A significant boost for active-duty units of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (GUR) fighting on the Zaporizhzhia front — communities of the region and the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration purchased and delivered drones and equipment worth over ₴26 million to the scouts:

● 330+ UAVs with thermal and light-sensitive cameras;
● unmanned aviation systems with digital video transmission;
● quadcopters like Autel, Matrice, Mavic;
● thermal cameras, battery packs, video transmitters.

🙏 Thanks to all the communities of the region who contribute to the defense fund, everyone who continues to support our troops, the administration team, and head of the Zaporizhzhia RMA Ivan Fedorov for this vital contribution to the joint armed struggle against the Russian occupiers!

Jackpot!

The warriors of the Phoenix Border Detachment continue to inflict massive losses on the enemy in the BPR 💣

This time they destroyed a valuable R-330Zh “Zhitel” electronic warfare system that the enemy tried to hide in a building.

Such a brilliant result deserves your donation to the rusoslice!

Last night, the Defense Forces of Ukraine struck the Bolkhov Semiconductor Device Plant (JSC “BZPP”) in Oryol Oblast — a key element of the Russian military-industrial complex.

The main area of activity of the Joint Stock Company “Bolkhov Semiconductor Device Plant” (JSC “BZPP”) is the development and production of electronic devices for radio-electronic equipment.

BZPP manufactures microchips, semiconductors, indicators, microassemblies, and “eternal batteries” for radio-electronic systems. The plant’s products are used in communications, control systems, EW, and simulators for tanks and missile systems. It collaborates with the “Sozvezdie” concern and other defense industry structures.

The plant is under international sanctions but continues to operate actively: up to 3 million devices are produced annually, employing about 700 people.

Russia has moved to classify key demographic statistics following a dramatic collapse in its birth rate, which has plunged to levels not seen since the late 18th or early 19th century, according to a leading Russian demographer.

For decades, Russia has been experiencing a plunging birth rate and population decline, which appears to have worsened amid its ongoing invasion of Ukraine—with high casualty rates and men fleeing the country to avoid being conscripted to fight.

Projections estimate that Russia's population will fall to about 132 million in the next two decades. The United Nations has predicted that in a worst-case scenario, by the start of the next century, Russia's population could almost halve to 83 million.

This “nut” didn’t crack on the first hit, but ended up shattered all over the hangar 💪

❗️Exclusive footage.

"Zaporizhzhia" took out the "eyes" of a Russian SAM system

UAVs from the Zaporizhzhia OTU destroyed the target illumination radar of a Buk system. The first accurate drop hit the track, disabling the vehicle; the second — into the engine compartment — finished it off. Another Russian air defense system is now "blind" without radar support.

Aviation continues to operate on all fronts — good little planes are destroying equipment in hangars with a drop of 4x #GBU39 💪

Reconnaissance spotted enemy IFVs, covered KAMAZ trucks, and personnel. Once the equipment was nicely parked, our aces delivered the gifts right to the address 👌
