The Ruble doesn't find support. It entered into a fee fall. Now Russia has stopped trading. This means that the exchange rate will just SEEM to have stabilised, but that's not the case. The Ruble has become a 'black market only' currency.
What's a free fall?

- Russian general Aleksandr Pavlovich Lapin (Лапин, on the name badge) has gone missing in the Belgorod region where currently there are ongoing battles. He is suspected to have died. Awaiting confirmation. He was/is the current chief of staff of all Russia's ground forces. 1/2
- Reality Russia is sliding downwards in every sense: their stocks of weapons are almost empty, production doesn't keep up, the normal economy goes downhill fast, the war economy is paid for with money they don't have. Should the world be in a hurry to negotiate peace? No. 1/
- A 10 km long Russian convoy consisting of tanks,armoured personnel carriers, motorcycles and some 100 infantry moving towards Pokrovsk, were destroyed today by two HIMARS strikes and FPV drones. Result: 50 casualties and all vehicles destroyed.
- 4 days ago Ukraine hit this Russian cargo ship in the Caspian sea. The ship was carrying Shahed parts from Iran to Russia. It sank.
- 100 Leopard-1 tanks will be delivered to Ukraine earlier than expected. Germany's Rheinmetall worked very hard to make them battle-ready. In total, some 230 tanks and 1550 armoured vehicles will be delivered. There will also be Leopard-2 tanks. Leopard-1 tanks in storage
- Dick Berlijn, former Chief of Staff and retired Air Force general writes: "...the launchers and airfields from which Russian missiles are fired must be eliminated. That is the only way these crimes can be stopped. So F-16s, HIMARS, ATACMS, StormShadow, SCALP, Tuarus."
- Ukraine has hit Borisoglebsk military airbase - some 400km East of the Russian city of Kursk, 200 km East of Voronezh. It is burning.
- Brigadier General Serhiy Baranov, head of the Main Directorate of Missiles, Artillery, and Unmanned Systems said that test flights with the HRIM-2 ballistic missile, develloped by Ukraine, resulted in a a precise hit of a target 700km away. Zelensky confirmed yesterday. 1/2
- Ukraine receives AGM-154A JSOW glide bombs that fit underneath the F16. They have a range of over 100km so the aircraft can stay out of range of enemy air defence. AGM-154A JSOWs are 'fire-and-forget'. They guide themselves to their targets, pre-programmed. 1/2
- We noticed the large number of Russian artillery pieces being taken out by Ukraine since a day and a half. Some mentioned huge blasts. The GLSDBs have arrived on the Ukranian battle field.
- Missiles with up to 300km reach for Ukraine The UK, Norway, the Netherlands, Denmark and Sweden participate in a fund called IFU (International Fund for Ukraine). The fund has started procurement of high end weapons amongst which missiles that have a reach of up to 300 km. 1/5
- Denmark sends all its big guns and all its munitions for these guns to Ukraine. All of it. Seriously. 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰👍
- Air Force Commander Lieutenant General Mykola Oleshchuk said that Russian planes have been shot down from distances of over 150km away. Thet means: 1. it wasn't done with Patriot missiles; 2. it wasn't done with NASAMS missiles. We don't know what else it could have been. 1/2
