HUGE: The US Senate just voted UNANIMOUSLY to send recovered oligarch assets to Ukraine! Russia will pay for the war!
— Paul Massaro (@apmassaro3) December 22, 2022

In a voice vote, the upper chamber easily adopted a provision from Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) that allows the seizure of Russian assets to be used as Ukraine aid.

President Vladimir Putin said the Patriot air defence that the US is supplying to Ukraine was an old weapons system that Russia would be able to "knock down".

"The Patriot air defence is an outdated system," Putin told reporters in Moscow, adding that Russia's S-300 system outperformed it."

Kirby says Wagner Group recently took a delivery of weapons from North Korea. “In certain instances, Russian military officials are actually subordinate to Wagner's command," he said. "Wagner is emerging as a rival power center to the Russian military & other Russian Ministries.”

"The fact that President Putin is turning to North Korea for help is a sign of Russia's desperation and isolation. We will work with our partners to ensure that North Korea pays a high price for supporting Russia's illegal war in Ukraine."

Past few days KIA has been consistently above 500, again.

The German-supplied IRIS-T air defense system has shown stunning effectiveness.

According to Vitaly Klitschko, the efficiency indicators of IRIS-T, which is on duty in the Kyiv region, are "100 shots - 100 hits." Klitschko stated this in the German magazine Der Spiegel. pic.twitter.com/L3NWyyC6uE

New Year Greetings of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy - YouTube

My biggest hope for 2023 is for continued Ukrainian success.

Lets hope they kick the Orcs out of as much of their country as possible.

Ukraine will win.

Girkin on Makiivka incident - hundreds of victims, many still under the rubble. The building where they were housed also contained an ammunition cache and vehicle storage, which is why the strike was so deadly.https://t.co/9zGYWVIvM1 pic.twitter.com/tJa0lM7X0h
— Dmitri (@wartranslated) January 2, 2023

Ukraine HIMARS'd a Russian barracks housing reportedly hundreds of mobilised men, the dumb fucks stored ammunition caches there as well, Girkin is claiming hundreds of victims, Ukraine is claiming "about 400" and Russia has confirmed at least 63 (Lol).

These are the indicative estimates of Russia’s combat losses as of Jan. 2, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. pic.twitter.com/0U2M02wbSa

⚡️Ukraine's air defense downed all 39 Russian drones.

Russian forces launched a massive strike against Ukraine using Iranian-made Shahed-131/136 kamikaze drones overnight on Jan. 2. The air defense destroyed all 39 drones.
