T-72 Versus Trench: A Hard Fought Battle in Donetsk
Our sponsor: Acre Gold - https://tribelink.co/funkergold
Precedent-setting footage from a battle in Donetsk Ukraine over a T-shaped set of trees depicts some of the most visceral combat footage we've seen to-date. Under most circumstances, we see small pieces of a larger operational picture, without the context to understand the gravity of even small-scale battles. @ronnieadkins breaks down a summary of the footage, and points you to where you can find it raw on our website:

Russian Conscription Update:
Vladimir Putin signed a decree on March 30'th to Authorize Russia's semi-annual conscription
Amounts to 147,000 Russians between Aapril 1 and July 15
This is an increase from the standard 134,000 for the Spring conscription cycle
Chairman of the Russian State Duma Defense Committee stated specifically that Conscripts WILL NOT deploy to UA
Russia has shown an overwhelming preference in using Mobilized Reservists to stabilize front lines
Rather than conscripts, such as in/neak Kharkiv during the Fall Counteroffensive from Ukraine

Norwegian F-35's on Standby to Respond in Iceland
From the DoD:
"Four F-35s were on standby ready to be scrambled if an unidentified aircraft came close to Icelandic airspace. The Air Policing mission for Iceland is provided periodically by NATO member countries for three to four weeks at a time, as Iceland does not have armed forces of its own. NATO Air Policing, which takes place over the entire Alliance 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, is a peacetime mission that aims to preserve the security of Alliance airspace."

Russian Su-34 Takeoff, Cockpit View, and Landing
The Russian Ministry of Defense released footage of an Su-34 taking off, flying around, and landing in March of 2023. The Su-34 is based on the previous Su-27, and although it was initially flight tested in 1990, it didn't enter service until 2014. Unique in the Su-34 is the side-by-side cockpit, which allows Russian pilots to share screens. The pilot is in the left seat, and weapons officer in the right.

Bayraktar Drone Flies Through Russian Su-27 Jet Wash
Footage recorded by a Ukrainian TB2 Bayraktar drone over the Black Sea shows an incident in which a Russian Su-27 combat jet intentionally disrupts the flight path of the drone with its wake turbulence, commonly referred to as jetwash.
It's not immediately clear why the drone was shot down. It's possible the Russian pilot wasn't able to distinguish its nation of origin as Turkey flies their own Bayraktar drones over the Black Sea. It's also possible the aircraft were in international airspace and not worth the geopolitical fallout of engaging it.

Ukraine Training on Abrams, Paladin, and Bradley
Footage from Telegram in early March, 2023 shows what is reported to be Ukrainians training on US-made heavy vehicles. The reported locations are presumed to be somewhere in Eastern Europe, though not quite all the way to Ukraine. There are training grounds in both Germany and Poland that would make a lot of sense. In order of appearance:
1. M1A2 Abrams
2. M109 Paladin
3. M2A3 Bradley

New Reaper View of SU-27 Fuel Dump Attack Over Black Sea
US European Command released footage of the Mar. 14, 2023 incident in which a Russian Su-27 made repeated unsafe harassment passes against a US MQ-9 Reaper drone and eventually clipped its propeller, dropping the American aircraft into the Black Sea.
Footage shows the Russian warplane making aggressive maneuvers in an attempt to dump fuel onto the US Reaper drone. One the last pass, the Russian jet actually strikes the drone and the video feed cuts out.

Breaking: First Russian SU27 vs Reaper Black Sea Footage Released
Video allegedly shows Russian footage from one of their aircraft as they passed by extremely close to the MQ-9. The pentagon had released a statement stating that multiple SU-27s made around 20 extremely close maneuvers to the MQ-9. The last pass from a SU-27 made contact with the MQ-9 disabling its propulsion system, which resulted in the drone crash landing in the sea. The pentagon has also stated that it is working on declassifying the drone footage of the incident and releasing it to the public.

Russia launched the larges missile barrage of the year on the 9th (yesterday)
84+ (some estimates over 90) missiles fired
28 Kh-101
20 Kalibr
6 Kh-22 (Anti-ship)
6 Kh-47 "Dagger" or "Killjoy" Hypersonic

Around the News:
The new National Cyber Security Strategy was released, which will raise the Defensive baseline for critical infrastructure
- There's currently no national baseline for securing critical infrastructure.
- DHS, DoD, IC all have their own "standards" and "toolsets" that are used
- Critical infrastructure is worse, hydro plants have very different standards than the FBI or NSA, for instance. In most cases less-so
- To me, it sounds like we're wrapping more and more red tape around the most dynamic domain that we wage war in
- Agility is a major concern in cybersecurity, zero-days pop up, and need to be shot down rapidly, necessitating less red tape
- I'm a CISSP and C|EH, this also happens to be one of my lanes

- US presence in Somalia is somewhere around 450 pax total, drone strikes, intelligence, and training
- For those that don't recall, the US stood up a permanent diplomatic mission in Mogadishu, re-establishment of the US Embassy

Opening Discussion: Syria (Deir ez Zor Raids)
Footage: https://funker530.com/video/us-sof-and-kurdish-raid-kills-isis-officer/
Multiple Raids took place in Syria on 17 Feb, 2023, resulting in ISIS leadership deaths
FOur US service members and a US military working dog were injured during the raids.
I'm a big fan of countering ISIS wherever the hell they are
A third raid took place on the morning of 18 Feb, capturing "Batar" who was responsible for a week-long battle to re-take an SDF prison:

Back to Back, Two Videos:
Russia Using CS Gas - https://funker530.com/video/russians-violate-geneva-convention-with-cs-gas-grenades
Ukraine Using CS Gas - https://funker530.com/video/ukrainian-media-team-brags-about-geneva-convention-violation
CS Gas In Military use:
- International Law bans the use of Chemical Weapons, specifically the...
1925 Geneva Protocol of the Use in War of Asphyxiating, Poisonus or Other Gases and of Bacteriological Methods of Warfare.
"Geneva Protocol" Bans Use
1993 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC)
CWC Bans Stockpiling
- US takes a minority position that it doesn't apply to Tear Gas
- The 1993 CWC treats tear gas as a "Riot Control" agent, or RCA
- The 1993 CWC prohibits using RCA "as a method of warfare", but doesn't define "method of warfare"
- The US Senate ratified the CWC in 1997, but basically said "we don't think it applies to RCA"
...literally "the President shall certify to Congress that the United States is not restricted by the Convention in its use of riot control agents"
- United States has EO 11850: RCA CAN be used "in war", but "in defensive military modes to save lives" when approved in-advance.
- Related to declared stockpiles of chemical agents (and as of March 2020), the US still has 1,731.8 metric tons remaining, which are slated for destruction by September, 2023. Source: https://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/cwcglance
Why all this? War Crimes are subjective. War itself is the horror. "Rules"
Also. The "Geneva Convention" isn't one thing. It's a series of 4 conventions and three protocols that tell us how to "War" at an international standard.
