Russian frontline medical care
- Russian frontline hospitals are experiencing acute shortages of personnel and supplies
- Only officers are reportedly evacuated to Russia, with ordinary soldiers being treated without anaesthesia or medications
- Volunteers are providing most of the medical supplies
- Medical facilities are so overwhelmed that schools and kindergartens are being used as hospitals
- Paramedics are often poorly trained and soldiers lack high-quality medical kits
- In contrast, Ukraine had extensive pre-war planning for treating the wounded, with a high number of hospital beds per capita and well-trained paramedics
Russian vs Ukrainian military equipment
Jonathan shares an infographic comparing Russian and Ukrainian military equipment stocks:
- Tanks: Russia started with 3,300, now has 1,400. Ukraine started with almost 1,000, now has 1,500.
- Heavy guns (152-155mm howitzers): Russia started with 2,300, now has 1,900. Ukraine started with 773, now has 1,100.
- MLRS: Russia started with 1,100, down to 841. Ukraine started with 350, now up to 430.
Hungarian perspective on Orban and Hungary
A Hungarian commenter provides their perspective on Viktor Orban and the situation in Hungary:
- Orban has been building Hungary the same way as Russia, destroying opposition parties
- Orban uses Hungarian nationalism and appeals to rural voters to maintain power
- Hungarian civilians have been helping Ukraine, despite the government's stance
- The commenter feels Macron and Scholz are more dangerous than Orban due to their countries' military and economic power
Demining and anti-drone systems
- Video of a demining vehicle detonating a mine, raising the question of how many mines these ploughs can withstand before needing repairs
- Footage of an improvised anti-drone system made from multiple Kalashnikov rifles
Gepard anti-aircraft vehicle
- Video of a Gepard anti-aircraft vehicle travelling at 130 km/h
- Gepard translates to "cheetah" in English, likely due to its speed
