If I remember correctly it was shut down because the Russian gas was cheaper.

Sorry I was incorrect

From Danish wiki
In 2019-2023, the field will be closed while it is being rebuilt. 50,000 tonnes of platforms are recycled in Frederikshavn. Danish politicians wanted the field reopened earlier due to high gas prices, but the operator Total E&P rejected that it is technically possible

Markus
The Dutch phasing out gas production of the Groningen gas field because of earthquakes politics dare not start this field up again, their political life will be over if they decide that.

Russian military equipment captured by the Ukrainian armed forces has gone on display in the Czech capital, Prague.

The display of war trophies, which includes a damaged T-90 tank, Buk air defence system and Msta howitzer, was unveiled on Letna Plain, a large open space a short distance from Prague Castle.

"This exhibition proves how vital support from partner countries is to us," Ukraine's Minister of Internal Affairs Denys Monastyrsky told the BBC via email after launching the exhibit.

"Russian propaganda likes to scare people that their tanks could reach Prague, Berlin or Paris. Ukrainians demonstrate - only in the form of scrap," he said.

Major-General Aleksandr Shkirenko has been dismissed as the Chief of the Central Organization and Mobilization Office, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces and has been left at the defense minister's disposal. Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko signed relevant decree No.240.

Maybe the mayor general is not willing to take the order to invade Ukraine or paranoid Lukashenko fears the power of the mayor general, but something happening in Belarus last couple days there are several reports of movement of Russian forces in Belarus.

In this call intercepted by SBU, a Russian soldier admits that Ukrainian artillery and mortar crews are much more efficient and precise than their Russian counterparts. In particular, the Russian reconnaissance commander complains to a friend that they are barely holding their positions in the village of Dovgenke in the Kharkiv region. As specified by SBU this discussion was intercepted even before Novaya Kakhovka, Kherson and Chornobayivka – that is, before the Armed Forces started using high-precision HIMARS. https://wartranslated.com/intercepte...rately-as-fck/



(R1)=Russian man (R2)=Russian man 2
(R1): Their drones go up, drones or quadcopters. They go up, and we can’t do anything with these drones. Can’t block them, nothing. They can’t do anything with them. Only take them down. Take it down, but it’s f*cking high up there, you can’t even see it. And our services aren’t doing anything. They can’t block it. They *Ukrainians* get the drones up to look where they are hitting. And then they start mortar fire. Occasionally… not that long ago in a day they burned seven vehicles in a village. Some armored KAMAZ and some other sh*t. Just… *unintelligible*.

(R2): What’s up with our aviation?

(R1): Our aviation is cr*p. A helicopter can only be five kilometers away, fire from the distance and f*ck off. And we don’t see it again. In a week it might come two times, work at some forest and f*ck off. There’s f*ck all, nothing at all, no “Su”’s. Only the helicopter *fires* from distance. While the Ukrainian helicopter might come twice in a day, work at us and get the f*ck out similarly.

(R2): F*cking hell.

(R1): There’s nothing. Everything is for the show. There’s nothing. At all. Their mortars and artillery men fire accurately as f*ck. They’ll shoot, then adjust with drones. A drone is often hanging above us. They have drones with thermal vision for the night, and regular ones for the day. They’ll launch a drone, ours can’t do anything with the drones. They hold them roughly along the *front* line, adjusting. They launch a mortar bomb, it explodes somewhere. They will adjust. Ten bam-bam-bam-bam-bam they put down more, and that’s it. The square is closed. Losses inflicted. Worked well, time to go. That’s how they work. They don’t have some massive authority or something to have 500 bombs in their storage. Not a lot of people. They have like 2-3 people in a crew. They’ll come with a mortar, fire and go.

(R2): Everything’s automated.

(R1): Their training is more or less better than ours, but our guys all stand in one place. Missing all the time, nearly firing in their own trenches. F*cking fools.

^ all good and well but the russians still advance.
Soon they will have hundreds of drones from Iran or whoknowsfrom, and then Himars and Howitzers will be difficult to hide from them.

Lots of troop and miltary movement in Belarus, do you think they will try to get for Kyiv again?

On the Kherson front panic setting in Russians try to move more forces to that area, but Russians have logistical problems there certainly after Ukraine has destroyed Russian biggest munition depots. Do not think there will be a new campaign from Belarus Russians are not certain Belarus army will fight in Ukraine military staff is not willing that is why the purge by Lukashenko. Think a front in the north will have the same problems as before.
