1/ This is an important post for all soldiers and the volunteers buying drone detectors for the military in Ukraine! During my trip in the beginning of May this year, a unit told me that RU had started using 7 Ghz video signal on their FPV drones. This means it is now necessary to have 4 channels.

1/ Trip 62, car 74. Tactical equipment: 10 PVS-14, 3 drones, 6 Starlinks, 2 generators, 4 ecoflows, 110 fibre wire transmitters, 60 powerbanks, 2 thermal sight, 7 antennas for drones, 300 km fibre wire, 1 laptop, 5 drone detectors, 1 trailer, 1 tv monitor, 20 000 anti-drone ammunition and much more

1/ Kriget i UA är sedan länge ett utnötningskrig som inte längre handlar om enstaka byar, oblastgränser, eller hur många stridsvagnar som slagits ut. Det handlar nu om ekonomisk uthållighet, industrins kapacitet och statens förmåga att fungera trots dagliga attacker mot viktiga anl. och funktioner

1/ Mer än 200 bensinstationer har nu förstörts i Ukraina av totalt ca 5000 i hela landet. Det låter inte så mycket men de som har förstörts är oftast de som är närmast de aktiva fronterna. Jag fick själv se exempel på dessa attacker under mitt besök i Kramatorsk denna resa.

1/ Riskerna har ökat drastiskt i Ukraina senaste året och jag rekommenderar alla organisationer och volontärer att göra en säkerhetsbedömning av era verksamheter. Nedan följer några viktiga rekommendationer till samtliga som jobbar som volontärer i Ukraina eller driver en organisation.

1/ Trip nr 61, car nr 74. Tactical equipment: 10 PVS-14, 6 drones, 4 Starlinks, 1 generator, 5 Ecoflow, 70 power banks, 2 battery chargers, 5 red dot sights, 1 thermal sight, 4 ghillie suits, 3 tactical lights, 1 laptop, 2 drone detectors, 14 000 anti-drone ammunition and much more.

Glad midsommar önskas från dessa två svenska soldater i ett specialförband som just nu tillbringar midsommarhelgen vid fronten i Ukraina. Det är ett av förbanden jag hjälper med utrustning. Tänk på dem när ni njuter i solen vid sommarstugan. Tillsammans mot seger! Razom do peremohi!

This is what RU air defence can do against low flying, slow moving drones on a fixed course over Moscow...... The other night I watched ballistic missiles being shot down by IRIS-T systems over Kyiv. One rocket, one kill each time. It was amazing to see how effective they were. Together to victory!

Jag har nu använt min tourniquet för första gången. Hur kan en dag i UA se ut? Här är en dag under min 61:a resa www.facebook.com/share/v/18f8... Det är inte mycket av det jag upplever som får plats i reseberättelserna varje månad. Vill du läsa mer? www.krigetsvagar.se beställ eller lyssna på boken!

1/ Senaste resan fick jag frågan om jag ville komma och besöka en markdrönarpluton. Jag fick prova att både köra och åka med på dem. Det påminde mycket om att köra radiostyrda bilar. De används inte som många tror. Det är inte en lösning på problemet att försörja fronten eller evakuera skadade.

😎 Nice to see RU waking up to the new reality. 🇺🇦 Razom do peremohi 🇺🇦 🔱

1/ Russia may be forced back to its 1991 borders as the Ukraine war turns against it, a Russian warblogger warns in a gloomy commentary. The prospects of a ceasefire on the current line of contact are slipping away and the threat to Russia itself is increasing. ⬇️

1/ Trip nr 60, car nr 73. A trip to remember a fallen hero. I had the honor to bring a father of a fallen swedish hero with me so he could visit the village where his son lived in Ukraine. See post on FB: www.facebook.com/share/p/17Zn... I visited 33 different units along all the active front lines.

I had lunch at this cafe last trip in May. 😳Have been there many times over the years i have been in Kramatorsk. 🇺🇦🔱🇸🇪

UNITED24 Media@united24media.com · 2mo ago

😠 Russian forces continue to strike civilian areas near the front line. In Kramatorsk, Donetsk region, the CCTV camera of the cafe captured one such attack.

1/ Vid midnatt i lördags fick jag några filmer och ett missat samtal från min tolk i Kyiv. Jag var beredd på att det skulle komma ett större anfall. Det jag inte var beredd på var att få höra min tolk gråta och skrika att hennes hus är förstört. En Shahed hade träffat precis nedanför hennes balkong

1/ 27 oktober 2024 dödades Petrik "Rauta" under ett stridsuppdrag i UA. Jag hjälpte honom över gränsen 2022 på min första resa och vi träffades när våra vägar korsades under åren. Senaste resan tog jag med hans far Thor till Ukraina. Bengt och Emil från SVT var med: www.svtplay.se/video/j7ddr3...

1/ Novomykolaivka is a small town located 60 km east of Zaporizjzja, along the main road that leads to Pokrovske (Not Pokrovsk). Before the war it had a population of aprox. 5000. In the end of April, RU started a new wave of attacks that almost completely destroyed the centre of the town.

1/ Det är många saker jag aldrig trott jag skulle få göra innan jag började hjälpa UA. Den här resan har jag fått köra en sv-donerad strv 122. Det är en 60 ton tung Leopard A5 som har extra pansar påbyggt. Här nere bygger de även på en nätbur och diverse andra modifieringar för skydd mot FPV drönare

1/ Trip 59. Car 72. Easter special. It included both happiness, love and sorrow. Attended a beautiful wedding in Pavlohrad between two medics working in a brigade I have been helping for some time. And ended with sad news from a very good friend whose father was killed in the fighting in the south.

1/ I met a unit in a café in Zaporizjzja on Thursday afternoon. When I arrived, they were just following how a KAB bomb was travelling through the sky over the city on one of the apps available for mil. units. It landed in the eastern parts of the town. We could hear the distant explosion 5 km away

1/ Yesterday RU tried to destroy the dam in Pechenihy with KAB bombs. bsky.app/profile/euan... I drove over it the day before. I had just been visiting some of the units in Vovchansk. This is not the first time they try to do this. The road going over the damn has been destroyed many times by now.

Euan MacDonald@euanmacdonald.bsky.social · 4mo ago

The last of six guided aerial bomb strikes by Russia on the Pechenihy dam in Kharkiv Oblast. The reservoir behind the dam is full after the spring thaw, and a breach would cause serious flooding downstream as well as water supply disruptions in the area. The dam is still intact.

1/ “Christ is risen” This is the greeting you use in UA on this easter Sunday. They celebrate according to the orthodox calendar. In real life, people do not come back from the dead. The relatives are left without there father, sister or son. Like this father in a small village outside of Sumy.

I guess everyone that knows how to do real mil ops have now been fired from Pentagon by war chief. So when it was time to go in with SF again, they dug deep in the archives and found OP Eagle claw from 1980 and did copy paste? 1. Establish base in desert 2. Burn C130 and helicopters 3. Go home 🙄🤔

❗️After the evacuation of the second pilot from the downed F-15E, the 🇺🇸United States was forced to destroy two HC-130J Combat King II search-and-rescue aircraft that were unable to leave 🇮🇷Iran for unknown reasons.

This is a hotel i have used many times the last year. It was the last hotel to stay open in the Slovjansk/Kramatorsk area. 🙏🇺🇦

UNITED24 Media@united24media.com · 4mo ago

🔴 BREAKING: Russian forces struck a hotel in central Sloviansk, Donetsk region, with Shahed drones. Authorities report one civilian killed. 📷: Radio Svoboda

1/ Trip 58. Car nr 71. The 5th year of the war, and still no end in sight. 45 different units got the equipment below: 1300 Tourniquets, 850 Trauma bandage, 600 Chest seals, 500 Haemostatic gauze, 500 burn dressings, 395 IFAK bags, 100 scissors, 24 20L medical bags, 1 blood warming device and more..

1/ Idag är det 4 år sedan jag korsade gränsen in till Ukraina för första gången. Jag visste inte exakt vad som väntade på andra sidan. Osäkerheten var stor och det gällde att planera för allt som kunde inträffa. Bilderna nedan är från de olika resorna. Den första är på flyktingar vid gränsen

1/ Den 30/3 kommer jag att hålla ett föredrag i centrala Sthlm. 23 mars 2022 korsade jag gränsen in i UA för första gången. Det har nu gått 4 år och blivit 58 resor totalt. Detta kommer därför bli ett föredrag om speciella saker jag har sett och upplevt under dessa år. Anmälan: sthlm@krigetsvagar.se

1/ This is the P1-Sun interceptor drone built by Sky Falls in Ukraine. It is the drone that many countries in the gulf now urgently wants. The cheapest Shahed killer that is used in UA. I got to see it and talk to the operators of the 37th Marine Brigade using it. Read below to learn how it works.

1/ After 4 years of war, there are finally signs that RU is preparing to lose this war. The last couple of months there has been some things happening that doesn’t make sense unless you look at them through the eyes of a dictator that is afraid the war might end, and not in a good way.

1/ 4 years of full-scale war in Europe. Good versus evil. These pictures show Maidan square in Kyiv. 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026. Every flag symbolises a father, a son, a sister, a mother or a brother that is no longer with us. On one side you have a dictatorship committing war crimes every day

1/ Why Ukraine continues to fight A week ago, I received a picture from a soldier who’s brigade I have been supporting since the summer of 2024. It was a picture of his mother. She is sitting outside a typical Ukrainian house with white bricks and blue painted windows and doorframes.
