Why has the Biden-Harris Administration failed to actively brief Congress about the movement of North Korean troops into Russia?

Awfully big talk from the people that held up military aid to Ukraine for months, much to Russia's advantage.

ess than 48 hours, Moldova will stand before one of the most significant sets of elections in its history, a day which in all likelihood, will finally and definitely see the country truly break away from Russia: a referendum to inscribe EU accession into its very constitution, alongside a very crucial presidential election.

According to the polls, both the EU referendum as well as the pro-EU candidate Maia Sandu (current president), stand to win overwhelming victories, and just to add to the legitimacy, those victories will probably be won with a massive voter turnout (estimated to go as high as 75%), all while the pro-Russian candidates stand to register crushing defeats.

Knowing it essentially stands to "lose" Moldova for good, Russia has been burning through all the means at its disposable to prevent and if needed overturn the result of this election: from economic pressure and propaganda, to very direct military threats aimed at frightening the population into submission and outright flying-in Wagner mercenaries and training pro-Russian individuals willing to stage a coup.

Despite everything, this small nation of not even 3 million souls and limited economic means, with one separatist and one autonomous region both controlled by Moscow, a country that was totally dependent on Russian gas pre-2022 and one that has Russian troops on its very soil, survived it all and stands to serve Russia a defeat which will echo far beyond Moldova.

Interesting thread on a (now dead) Russian soldier that includes previously posted videos related to the soldier's experiences

1/ The story of a Russian soldier who died last week, having signed a six-month contract but serving two years fighting in Ukraine, illustrates the career of a Russian drone operator. He was one of only 2 volunteers from 2022 to have survived in his unit until recently. ⬇️
2/ The 'Shelter No. 8' Telegram channel, which is written from the perspective of a mobilised Russian soldier, tells the story of a friend of the channel's author who volunteered for service in August 2022 while studying history at university.
 
4/ The author notes ironically that "in the spring and summer of this year, regimental-level EW units were massively created, which needed a lot of specialists. And then EW men were ready to be thrown into assaults."

Last night, at least 4 (according to official data) or more than a dozen (according to eyewitness accounts) unidentified drones attacked the city of Dzerzhinsk, 370 kilometers east of Moscow. Their target appears to be the Sverdlov Plant, which is part of Russia's military-industrial complex.

According to an eyewitness (the video has been fully translated), attempts to shoot down the drones at the plant were unsuccessful, as he heard numerous explosions.

The plant had already been attacked by drones on March 1, 2024.

It is one of the largest explosives manufacturing facilities in Russia. The plant produces almost the full range of munitions, from aerial bombs to artillery shells

The Ukrainian military captured one of the most famous Luhansk separatists

It is Herman Prokopiv, an active participant in the pro-Russian riots of 2014. He was the one who removed the Ukrainian flags from the administrative building of Luhansk. 

He represented the combat wing of the "Luhansk Guard" and took part in the seizure of the Luhansk regional state administration, as well as repeatedly threatened Luhansk Euromaidan activists.

After 2015 and the disbandment of the Luhansk Guard, Prokopiv disappeared from the media. However, this did not prevent his identification after his capture in 2024. He immediately spoke Ukrainian.

 Together with Finland, we are launching a civil defence coalition to build a system of modern shelters in Ukraine. Today we visited the Merihaka civil defense shelter in Helsinki. In total, there are around 5,500 shelters in Helsinki, which can offer protection to 900,000 people. There are not only enough places for the residents, but also for the city's guests. We want to use this experience to build shelters in Ukraine. Together with Finland, we will involve partners in the realisation of similar projects.

Second tweet:

Please also note that many shelters are build in living and office buildings in their basement. This is by the law ie. big enough building has to have a shelter.

These shelters are property of the building/owners and can be used in other ways during non emergency times.
Typical use is a storage. Basically shelters in living buildings are divided with light walls so that each unit has their own small (few sqm) storage in their private use.
Only light walls can be build cause in case of a need, this shelter needs to be in shelter use in 72 hours.

This kind of arrangement increase a bit building costs however is a great way to offer extra storage for residents.

I’m not saying they are programmed, but their worldview is so thoroughly shaped a certain way that by the time they hit adulthood, they are going to believe that nothing can oppose them, and that things will progress in a linear fashion on the battlefield.

AND, they aren’t going to be able to handle (or rather account for) Russian corruption.  Not that North Korean corruption isn’t a thing, but when you fuck around, you get killed by an anti-aircraft gun in front of your peers.

If the North Koreans are deployed into Ukraine in any large numbers, I’m picturing that stuck convoy in early 2022, but with a ton of Norks just standing around because they don’t know how to think and act independently in responding to variables they didn’t train for (they would never train for their country failing them).
