Glad this worked as a medevac.
When I was in Ukraine, we actually tested ideas like this plenty of times, and desperate time calls for desperate measures.
Hats off to my Kherson drone buddies, yes, I am mentioning you guys.
I stand with Zelenskyy over Trump on this one. The Diesel deal makes NO FUCKING sense.
Forever standing for Ukraine's right to defend itself!
Someone send Trump the the old folks home.

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all. Slava Ukraini🇺🇸🇺🇦

🛡️ Rutte: Article 5 is deliberately ambiguous, so we will never exactly tell anyone when Article 5 is exactly triggered or not.
Because we don't want to make our adversaries any wiser. But when it comes to hybrid, let me assure you, we have all the response options we need.
Some of them you will not see because they are simply not public.

Freedom Wins! Today the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act targeting the lifelines sustaining Putin’s war machine passed the US House of Representatives with a strong, bipartisan vote of 262-159 and is headed to the President’s desk. I know my friend Lindsey is smiling in Glory. Slava Ukraini🇺🇸🇺🇦
To my dear friends in the Lyman direction. I am proud of you all. The news will say the rest in a few days I hope.
Zelenskyy is right. (I think)
Who wanted Russia to win? Elon.
Who is Elon siding with now? Federov.
Red flags are what I see. I will like to be corrected by people who think otherwise, or have a discussion, thank you.
Zelenskyy just said elections now could “destroy” Ukraine,
He said it would be “a tsunami for the state which will split Ukraine.” And that the country’s focus should be on staying united, ending the war and preserving an independent Ukraine.
He said Ukrainian forces have already reclaimed 900 km² this year & the priority now is the soldiers taking back Ukrainian land, not a political campaign that could divide the country while they are still fighting for it.
Same, now I feel this dude is working with Elon musk and just want to get Ukrainian president that will work with Putin.
Continuo a credere che la decisione del presidente Zelensky di rimuovere Fedorov dalla carica di ministro della difesa sia stata un errore; tuttavia, adesso che ha registrato un video “alla Zelensky” in cui chiede seriamente che in Ucraina vengano svolte “elezioni presidenziali”, penso che abbia perso del tutto la sua credibilità politica.
Comportamento estremamente grave e destabilizzante da parte sua e dunque, ahimè, non posso più supportarlo.
Mi auguro che il nuovo ministro della difesa Khmara farà un buon lavoro.

🇺🇦❗️Ukrainians still face hell, difficult times, and many challenges: the war will stop only when the Russian authorities realize that their very existence is at stake, — former Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov.
We received some funding to get a new medical gig going, location decided to be in Okinawa (Sponsor's choice.)
I like Okinawa, was stationed there in the late 90s - early 2000s, be more than happy to spend more time there.
And I would also always be keeping my work relating to helping Ukraine as part of my objectives. That's just my life now.
It is true. Biden's side actual laundered money worse than Republicans in many cases, all in cover of this like USAID etc. As to where those funds go, I would never know.
Not saying GOP doesn't launder. They both do. But the illusion thay Democrats don't is crazy.
Biden lied about the amount of support provided to Ukraine. Over 70% of the claimed $175 billion for Ukraine was spent on the US military and domestic stock replenishment.
"Our analysis concludes that in three years of full-scale war, the total monetary value of US aid delivered to Ukraine’s government amounts to $50.9 billion, of which $18.3 billion comprises military aid."

And @Deepstate_UA finally reveals the scale of recent Ukrainan advances in the Zaporizhia sector.
The military reported 26 villages and towns retaken from Russia.
I know many have split opinion on Zelenskyy these days, but in 2022, it was his "I don't need a ride, I need ammunition" speech that got me and 9 of my retired vets deciding we must come assist. I like him, I think given the task, he did better than most. And I hope more western media would see him that way too.
Tomorrow, our medical group of US Veterans are again going to DC to present and push for Ukraine's right to protect their people to several congressmen. We brought some sponsors and partnerships with our angle, cause capitalism, the fight must CONTINUE until GTFO of Ukraine.
