US official reminded Ukraine how much money the US spent on the "exercises" of the Ukrainian National Guard

Reptiles are preparing for war. If there was no war in the plan, then the exercises too.

This is another step towards NATO standards in Ukraine.

But the availability of teachings does not automatically mean that there will be war.

And the teachings are always preparation for war. But the availability of teachings does not automatically mean that there will be war. They won’t be able to cope with their “separatists” for the second year, and the “war" ...

The Ukrainian military personnel and volunteers complain that positions of anti-terrorist operation forces are massively attacked by rodents.
This is stated in the material of Radio Liberty.
According to information, an exacerbation of this problem has occurred in the last three months.
“At first the mice appeared in small flocks, then - more, now there are billions of them! None of us have ever seen this, ”said volunteer Yuri Misyagin.
In an hour, one of the fighters managed to fill several buckets of mice.

“There are several reasons for this population explosion. Firstly, the sown fields were not harvested last year, and rodents had a lot of food. Secondly, the hostilities worried the predators that regulate the number of mice - owls and foxes, and they left these places, ”explains Igor Zagorodnyuk, biologist, senior researcher at the National Museum of Natural History of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
According to him, in such conditions, mice multiply rapidly - up to 10 mice in the litter every two to three weeks. They have already eaten food from the fields, so they are going to look for food in dugouts, warehouses, etc.
“Water at the front line is imported everywhere, it is used only for drinking. Guys wash with wet wipes that volunteers bring. So, if after eating before bedtime you didn’t wipe your hands thoroughly, in the morning they may be scratched or even bitten by mice, ”Misyagin says.
Lugansk biologist Sergei Fomin, who is currently serving in the army on Facebook, said: "In the Gorlovka area, mice run around the soldiers who are sleeping."
At the same time, experts note that such a situation can lead to infectious outbreaks in the region.
“It is in the Lugansk and Donetsk regions that there are constant foci of these infections. You can get infected through the use of raw water from open reservoirs, through food that a sick animal had access to, and also through contact with even a dead rodent, ”says Odessa biologist Dmitry Sokolovsky.
The point is that from those varieties of tularemia bacteria that circulate in Ukraine, mortality is low - less than 1%, however, the course of the disease permanently incapacitates a person - the temperature 38-40 ° C lasts from 2 to 4 weeks, accompanied by pain, enlarged lymph nodes.
As for leptospirosis, then the course of the disease is more severe and mortality is higher - in severe cases, mortality reaches 30-35%. The bacterium causes intoxication, which affects the kidneys, liver, cardiovascular and nervous system. To transmit leptospira, even skin lesions invisible to the eye are enough.
“Therefore, it is urgent to conduct safety briefings among the fighters, while simultaneously exploring mouse populations - or active foci of infections,” Sokolovsky believes.

and with whom are they going to fight again?

Ponty is clumsy no more. I remember in Somalia the green berets (the representative of which is in the photo in brown) were stupidly ambushed and waiting for the helicopter to help, they managed to shoot 60 thousand rounds in two hours, although if they had shown the initiative they would have broken through without problems.
