2026-03-04 #military #history from the early days of the 1939-40 #WinterWar, and the famous "wilderness" battles of Suomussalmi and Raate Road. One of the only places in Finland where the invading Soviets *were* welcomed as liberators, even if briefly and only by some. bsky.app/profile/jmko...

6/ WINTER FAILED ❄️🚫
Russia’s 2025–2026 winter campaign against the power grid was a total bust. 💡
Thanks to decentralized energy repairs and a massive upgrade in Air Defense (shoutout to the partners! 🤝), the lights stayed on. 🔦 Ukraine enters this Spring in its strongest battlefield position since 2023. 💪✨

2022-03-02: Early on, I became concerned about the similarities between the 1939 #WinterWar and the Kremlin's full scale invasion of #Ukraine. Sad to say, we didn't learn enough from history. bsky.app/profile/jmko...

The #winterwar Heats Up. Ukraine strikes deep inside Russia: a thermal power substation in Belgorod, a strike on Bryansk electronics plant, a drone has taken down a heavy Russian helicopter. There’s a pattern - Ukrainian innovation, daring and ingenuity. https://youtu.be/JtR3Oge7uJw

- Why are they called this way?
- Why were/are they effective? And where/when not?
- What are improvements? (courtesy of @kami_kadse)
- How do I (safely) make some? -

Finnish Iltasanomat reporting on the #Russian motorbike celebration being organised in #Vyborg to celebration ‘liberation’ of the town from ‘fascism’ 80 years ago. It was an important and significant Finnish city until #Russia invaded and annexed it during the #WinterWar and #ContinuationWar (during #WW2).
The celebration is funded by #Putin. And 10% of proceeds are donated to the fight against #Ukraine.
