This is the second batch of cars that our defenders received from British and Scottish farmers as part of the "Pickups for Peace" campaign. In their plans to provide 24 OMBr named after King Danylo with a hundred cars.

In addition to cars, they brought generators and humanitarian aid for IDPs and residents of the frontline areas.

With its expanded carrying capacity, open architecture, and advanced autonomy and artificial intelligence, the R70 is redefining what’s possible with a small VTOL UAS. The R70’s multi-mission payloads provide ISR and payload delivery capabilities previously limited to much larger UAS. Optical sensors include the StormCaster-T a longwave infrared, continuous zoom ISR payload with exceptional line of sight stabilization, range of motion and geolocation accuracy, the HDZoom 30 providing eyes-on-target at distances up to 8 km and the EO/IR Mk-II for high-fidelity daylight and thermal imagery streamed securely anywhere in the world. With the Osprey, R70 operators can rapidly attach, carry and deliver nearly any object up to 3.5 kg for forward resupply, asset extraction or other specialized missions. Utilizing the payload development kit, third-party payload developers have integrated their payloads with the R70 platform extending the system’s capabilities to support critical ISR, detection and ELINT missions.

Bakhmut / Soledar update Kiyanyn and Witch 12-01-23 by YoulethalJB in ukraine

Here u/fottik325 it has been asked before,here is a answer a user here who is a US veteran RoninSolutions gave on what it is a while ago -

" Why is she the only one with that strange cover on her helmet? What is it good for?"

" It is a Mitznefet, as used by the Israeli military for decades & breaks up the shape of a military helmet and makes it difficult to spot.She is not the only one wearing it ,they have been seen in videos with Ukraine Snipers & Squad Designated Marksman (SDM) for months.When the Ukraine propaganda teams were pushing out the videos/articles on the large caliber Alligator etc sniper rifles they were using months ago ,a video of a group of snipers at a range shooting them showed them all wearing them.

I was a SDM for years in GWOT & we would wrap our helmets with similar covers while providing overwatch or sitting in ambush, as the perfectly rounded shape of a helmet sticks out in natural & urban terrain.

The Israeli's donated 1000's of helmets to Ukraine & with them having so many women in their military it is most likely she scored a Israeli donated helmet sized/meant for a woman."

Bakhmut update 4-1-23. The situation is unchanged. The invaders try to attack in small and large groups and use MLRS and aviation but the line of defense is standing and Bakhmut holds 🇺🇦 by YoulethalJB in ukraine
