10% of the active IDF tank and armored vehicles forces destroyed in 12 days (more infos in the description)
10% of the active IDF tank and armored vehicles forces destroyed in 12 days , the combat units of the Israeli army have 330 Merkava-IV and 160 Merkava-III tanks. 220 Merkava-IV and 660 Merkava-III are in reserve. At least 33 Merkava-IVs have been destroyed so far.
Merkava-IIIs have not yet been seen in combat because they are located at storage bases in the center of the country due to their weak protection.
The IDF also has about 1,400 armored personnel carriers and armored fighting vehicles. At the same time, 40 out of 120 Namer infantry fighting vehicles were lost. All 20 of the 215 Achzarit were killed. At least 50 of the 500 M113 armored personnel carriers were lost. No other equipment losses are known, but there are dozens of them.
Heavy armor losses are at least 110, and possibly around 150. The Israeli army lost more than 10% of its tank fleet and at least the same number of armored personnel carriers in 12 days.
At least several hundred different military vehicles were also destroyed or damaged.
The Israeli army has never in its history faced such high losses of armored vehicles. The rapid decline of bases due to surprise raids, the loss of ATGMs and RPGs in a week-long active ground war, and attacks by UAVs loaded with explosives quickly increase losses.
In the event of a possible ground war, this number will increase further due to IEDs, mines, ATGMs, missiles, non-combat causes and possible excesses from friendly fire.
Please watch this detailed explanation from former CIA analyst Frank Snepp about how the newspapers and magazines you were taught to regard as mainstream and reliable have always eagerly served as disinformation megaphones for the CIA and the US Security State. That's still true.
Clip 1#
The destruction of the accumulation of infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Seversk
The operator of the ZALA reconnaissance drone discovered a concentration of APU manpower in a building on the outskirts of the village of Serebryanka.
The discovered positions of the Ukrainian formations were hit by a howitzer. Thanks to the high training of the calculation, it was possible to cover the target with the very first shot.
In recent months, the level of interaction and training of artillerymen in the sector near Kremennaya has grown significantly. The use of ZALA drones with a good camera also had a positive effect on combat capability.

Artillery strikes on the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Kremennaya
In the Starobelsk direction, the RF Armed Forces hit the positions of Ukrainian formations located to the west of the settlement of Torskoye.
The enemy was identified using a drone: the operator noticed the movement of the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine between the fortifications. Then they were covered by Russian artillery.
Heavy fighting has been going on in the area near Kremennaya for several months. Ukrainian formations are trying to reach the city from the south through the wooded area and create a threat to the operational encirclement of the garrison.
The truth about Ukraine! A reminder for the European and the Western public!
A very interesting picture and view told from the Russian viewpoint!
If we don't look, listen or understand the other point or position, it may end in a Desaster!
This is normally the job of the Diplomats, but the quality and interest of western public Servents took a very destructive path over the last decades!
The elites and the MSMedia made sure that this path was able to appear!
