US actor Sean Penn has been gifted an Oscar-shaped award made from war-damaged rail metal by Ukraine, after he skipped Sunday's ceremony to visit the war-torn country.

Penn, 65, won his third Academy Award for his supporting actor role in political thriller One Battle Another but was absent from the ceremony.

In a video posted by Oleksandr Pertsovskyi, the CEO of Ukrainian Railways, Pertsovskyi tells Penn: "You're missing Oscars... So we made this one. This is from the railcar that was damaged by the Russians".

A long-time advocate for Ukraine, Penn has visited several times since the Kremlin launched its full-scale invasion of the country four years ago.

He gifted one of his Oscars to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in 2022.

Bilo je pitanje vremena, nagledao sam se unazad ove 4 i kusur godine bar jedno 10 videa gde je helikopter za dlaku izbegao dron. I ovde je onaj prvi srećno prošao ali ovaj drugi je izgleda platio. Doduše Fighterbomber piše da je posada preživela, videćemo da li su ovo posle Ukrajinci nakarikali ili je FB pogrešio (što je retko).

Russian forces have begun a spring offensive in eastern Ukraine, including the use of dozens of tanks and armored vehicles, according to the Ukrainian military and analysts.

 

“With changing weather conditions, the Russian aggressor has stepped up pressure across several sections of the front,” Ukrainian military chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said Friday. “For several days running, the number of combat engagements has exceeded 200,” he added – claiming that the Russians were losing more than 1,000 soldiers a day.
 

“Active troop movements, reinforced artillery, tactical aviation and the widespread use of UAVs (drones) are being observed across all sectors, indicating that the Russian army is preparing for a further offensive,” Dmytro Zaporozhets of Ukraine’s 11th Corps told Ukrainian broadcaster Suspilne on Saturday.
 

One focus of Russian attacks has been the town of Lyman in Donetsk, at the edge of what’s known as Ukraine’s fortress belt in the region, and a key strongpoint guarding the larger city of Sloviansk. Ukraine’s Third Corps said Saturday that the Russians had used nearly 30 armored vehicles along with more than 500 infantry in the area. But the Russian “attacks were thwarted on all fronts,” said the Corps’ commander, Brig. Gen. Andriy Biletsky.

Two police officers have been injured in an explosion that authorities say was a "terrorist act" in the town of Bucha near the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv.

 

An explosion occurred on a residential street in the early hours of Monday. When police arrived at the site, a second blast took place, injuring two officers.

 

Police arrested a 21-year-old local resident who they say was recruited online to carry out the two explosions.

 

They did not share what platform the suspect had been recruited on, but a security source told the BBC it had been done through the online game World of Tanks.

At least five people have been killed in Russian strikes across Ukraine, after a massive overnight aerial bombardment targeted several regions across the country.

 

Officials said the attacks were among the worst in ten days, and came hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had warned of a forthcoming "massive strike" in his nightly address.

 

Russian strikes targeting energy infrastructure also disconnected Moldova's key power link with Europe, President Maia Sandu said, warning the situation remained "fragile".

 

Seven ballistic missiles, 23 cruise missiles, four air-launched guided missiles and 392 drones were used in the attack, the Ukrainian Air Force said in a statement on Telegram.

 

Air defence units intercepted 25 missiles and 365 drones, it added.

The commander of Ukrainian military drone forces, Robert Brovdi, has said that an operation targeting these three Baltic oil export facilities was carried out between 23 and 28 March.

 

Brovdi added the strikes were aimed at "demilitarising Russia's oil arteries, refining capacity and crude export infrastructure".

 

Ukraine's military has said the Kirishi refinery is among the three largest oil‑processing plants in Russia, including the production of "fuels that support the armed forces of the aggressor state".

 

 

Volodymyr Zelensky has said Ukraine's allies have urged him to scale back attacks on Russia's energy infrastructure amid the ongoing global fuel crisis - but that they would only end if Russia stopped targeting Ukraine's first.

The Ukrainian president told journalists in a WhatsApp voice message that, by launching attacks on Russia's energy system, Ukraine was only responding in kind.

It is unclear which countries he may have been referring to. China and India remain heavily dependent on Russian oil, and the EU on Russian gas.

Srušio se ruski transportni avion nedaleko od Sevastopolja. 29 mrtvih. Za sada samo špekulacije šta se desilo. Rusi kažu da je u pitanju kvar samo nije jasno odakle im to kada istraga još nije ni počela.

Teorijski je moguće da su piloti prijavili kvar, a kvarovi nisu tako neuobičajeni. U vesti koju prenosi prenosi Reuters piše ovako:

The preliminary cause of the crash is a technical malfunction.

 

Jasno je da nije u pitanju konačan zaključak, ali imajući u vidu da je u pitanju matora kanta, moguće je da je nešto počelo da trokira, da je posada to prijavila i da je avion pao usled kvara. Naravno, to ne isključuje mogućnost da je posada nešto zabrljala ili da je ukrajinska vojska 'pomogla' avionu da padne. Hajde da kažem da u ovo objašnjenje verujem 30%, imajući u vidu da je avion krš.

Daleko mi je to da bi Ukrajinci bili "krivci" više sumnjam na same Ruse da su ga slučajno oborili. Ukrajinci tu tuku dronovima često a taj avion leti sporo pa su ga možda pogrešno identifikovali. No verovatno nećemo ni dobiti podatke kada se istraga završi.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused Moscow of choosing "Easter escalation" over an Easter ceasefire after Russia carried out another deadly large-scale drone and missile attack on Ukraine.

 

Six civilians were killed and 40 others injured as Russia launched hundreds of drones and missiles across the country.

 

Meanwhile, Zelensky agreed with a British intelligence assessment that the situation on the frontline in the east was the "most favourable" for Ukraine in 10 months, as the advance of Russian troops appears to have slowed.

Russia and Ukraine have agreed to a truce for Orthodox Easter, with Vladimir Putin saying he's ordered Russian troops to cease fire "in all directions" this weekend.

 

The declaration from Moscow came after Volodymyr Zelensky issued repeated calls for a ceasefire, all ignored by the Kremlin.

 

Now Putin has announced a truce from 16:00 local time (13:00 GMT) on Saturday 11 April through Easter Sunday, adding that he expected Ukraine to "follow the example" of Russia. He ordered his forces to be ready to intercept "possible enemy provocations" and any "aggressive actions". 

 

Russia's tone, and the attempt to steal the initiative, will make Ukrainians bristle.

 

But Zelensky soon posted on X that Ukraine was "ready for symmetrical steps".

 

"People need an Easter free from threats and real movement toward peace," he wrote. "Russia has a chance not to return to strikes after Easter as well."

Rusi se bucali kako Sting ne može da obori dronove na mlazni pogon i odma dobili odgovor.

 

 

Izgleda da Rusima ponestaje PVO raketa. Evo neke šklopocije koja je prepravljena da bude PVO lanser za R-77 rakete. Smejali se Ukrajini kada su oni to radili a sada spali na Ukrajinske standarde 🙂 . Obzirom da se pretpostavlja da se ova raketa proizvodi od 50-70 komada mesečno možda imaju i nedostatak aviona da je lansiraju pa prelaze na lansiranje sa zemlje. Samo to će joj značajno smanjiti domet.

 

Drug Peskov proglasio Mađarsku za neprijateljsku zemlju i rekao da neće čestitati Mađaru pobedu 🙂

 

 

[MeanMachine]

Ukrajinci nista slicno nisu radili. Oni su cini mi se na BUK montirali Sparrow rakete cime su domet BUK znacajno redukovali a radar lansera mora da radi non stop da bi meta bila u zahvatu pa mislim da od sistema nije bilo nista. Mozda se koristi za odbranu od dronova ali nisam video neki info o tome.

 

Ovo sto sad Rusi budze mu je nesto ko onaj americki S-L ARMAAM:

 

 

 

Idealan za front (jer ne otkriva svoj polozaj nema osmatracki radar i vrlo mala meta) ali pitanje je gde su Rusi sa umrezavanjem, jer se podaci o metama dobijaju preko datalinka. SSSR je tu bio znatno ispred NATO-a ali to je davno proslo vreme, Rusi sigurno sad ozbiljno kaskaju ali opet nije neka najkomplikovanija tehnologija pa da ne mogu da to rese.

 

Inace R-77 povlace iz naoruzanja tj menjaju je sa R-77M koja je aerodinamicki dosta slicnija klasicnim VV raketama nema resetke vec klasicna krila, tako da proizvodnja R-77 verovatno je vec stala ili ce stati a stokovi ce verovatno biti troseni za ovu budzevinu.

 

Da se ispravim, ima kod Ukrajinaca nekakav PVO sistem Dnjepar. Poceo je ko nekakav njihov S-300 da bi sad ga znatno izmenili i koristi R-27 i R-73. Ali jos uvek se testira.

 

Nije ni to lose ako ne kosta mnogo i znatno je bolje od budzenja Sparrowa na BUK, to je bukvalno sa konja na magarca.

 

Problem je pak sto dnjepar sa R-27 nije pasivan sistem, R-27 zahteva da meta bude ozracena radarom dakle mora i radar, vise cena, jos jedno vozilo i povecanje sanse da budu locirani.

Samo što je taj američki projekat otkazan i pride je to bio projekat koji je koristio vozilo koje je bilo standarno u njihovoj armiji u to vreme i da je prošao bio bi u serijskoj proizvodnji. Ovo što Rusi koriste je u stilu ISIS mehanizacije, da ne kažem Mad max tehnologija.

 

Pre dve godine rusi su se havlili ovim :

 

 

 

A dobišmo neki krpljeni kamion koji je sigurno sklepan negde u radionici a ne na fabričkoj traci. Dakle krpe šta stignu samo da radi jer verovatno nedostaje raketa i lansera da se pokrije front i bitne fabrike po Rusiji.

 

Ukrajinci su imali sličan projekat kao taj američki samo za R73 rakete, monitirali su lansere na čamce, mislim da je čak taj i oborio nešto .... Montirali su lansere na civilne džipove za AIM9 rakete. Kasnije su to smanjili jer NASAMS i IRIS mogu da ispaljuje te rakete ali verujem da i dalje koriste te sklepane varijante ako treba negde na nezgodno mesto da se ide blizu fronta.

[MeanMachine]

Kamion je tu najmanji problem. Ko zna možda je neka budzevina za pvo fabrika imaju tu dosta problema. 

 

Jer to bez nekog umrežavanja nema šta na frontu da traži.

 

Uglavnom tih raketa imaju dosta pa je logično da ih koriste sad kad su i oni verovatno otanjili sa pvo raketama.

 

R73 i AIM9 su dosta kraćeg dometa. I mi smo nešto slično radili ko Ukrajinci ali sa R60 cini mi se. Kasnije smo imali neku budzevinu sa sovjetskom kopijom AIM9 jer R60 tek ima smešan domet kad se lansira sa zemlje.

Ministarstvo Odbrane Rusije pojacava pritisak na studente da se dobrovoljno prijave u jedinice dron operatera

The promise of a reduced risk of coming under fire is also not enforceable, experts say. “As soon as the person signs the contracts, he is literally a slave of Ministry of Defense,” said Grigory Sverdlin, who runs an anti-war charity called “Idite Lesom” (“Get Lost”), which helps Russians avoid the draft. “He can be sent to whatever unit the Ministry of Defense will need. There is no way to be able to choose.”

Ko se prijavi dronovi mu ne ginu - uglavnom ukrajinski...

[Klotzen]

Verovatno one koji ne zadovolje na obuci šalju u pešadiju ali mislim da ih većina stvarno ide i u drondžije jer za razliku od početka rata sada i drondžije stradaju na frontu dosta često. Pogotovo ako se koriste ovi sa optičkim kablovima. No i bez toga zasićenost dronovima je ogromna i pitanje je vremena kada će druga strana da otkrije mesto odakle lansirate. Skoro sam gledao i video nekog Engleza koji kaže da je bez problema upao kod Ukrajinaca u dron jedinicu što je pre bilo mnogo teže. Naravno u toku je i ekspanzija dron jedinica jer se proizvodnja istih stalno povećava.
