The blob news networks want to make it seem like the digital gulag system but it’s quite a reasonable upgrade. A paper based system in 2023 was no good.

Two very valuable assets- a Russian R-934BMV UHF jammer and R-330ZH Zhitel jamming and radio reconnaissance station- were destroyed by the Ukrainian 92nd Mechanized and 40th Artillery Brigades using GMLRS in Pokrovske, #Luhansk Oblast.
This must be a very big day for you
