Volume 1 of War in Ukraine focuses on the armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic (DPR), the largest of the two separatist entities in the east of Ukraine. Armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic aims to provide an overview of their formation in 2014, their status up to the end of February 2022, and combat equipment, while also exploring issues around identity and symbology. Loosely confederated with the armed formations of the neighbouring Luhansk Peoples Republic into the so-called United Armed Forces of Novorossiya, in reality the armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic have retained a degree of autonomy over their units and planning. Often dismissed in existing literature as mere proxy extensions of Russian forces, since their formation in the fighting in eastern Ukraine during 2014 the armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic have developed into an integrated fighting force with more main battle tanks than several major Western military powers combined. The title also details some of the key military commanders who have shaped the armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic since 2014. One area of focus of the title explores the unusual and little-known home grown military technological developments made by the Donetsk Peoples Republic, including multiple launch rocket systems, armoured vehicles, sniper rifles, small arms and remote weapons stations. The emerging visual propaganda culture around the armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic is also explored, with military glory and fallen personnel commemorated in large scale military parades, murals, monuments and even postage stamps. War in Ukraine Volume 1: Armed formations of the Donetsk Peoples Republic also presents a wealth of unique visual material including unit patches, a selection of unique photographs, diagrams and maps, and will be of interest to anyone studying the conflict in Ukraine.
This entry in the MiddleEast@War series is illustrated with abundant photographs from previously unused, or very rarely used, private and official sources. Air Power and the Arab World, 1909–1955 Volume 10 continues the story of the men and machines of the first half-century of military aviation in the Arab world. It tells the story of the first two weeks of the first of the Arab-Israeli Wars – also known as the Palestine War – in May 1948. Whilst part of an ongoing series, this volume stands alone as a history of the period covered. By that time, in Egypt, Iraq, Transjordan, newly-independent Syria, Lebanon, and, to a lesser extent, Saudi Arabia, significant efforts had already been made to strengthen these countries’ armed forces. Where Egypt, Iraq and Syria were concerned, these efforts included a determination to improve or, in the case of Syria, to establish their air forces. All three air forces were thrown into the First Phase of the Palestine War and, in the view of most subsequent commentators or historians, they had failed to perform as well as their government and populations had expected. However, closer investigation and the removal of layers of propaganda which have obscured the realities of this first Arab-Israeli War show that the Arab air forces performed better than is generally realized. Arguably, they had their limitations and weaknesses, and these had also become apparent as the fighting intensified and losses began to mount. All this was always clearly pointed out in Arabic sources, both official and unofficial, unpublished, or published only with limited circulation. Volume 10 of Air Power and the Arab World focuses on day-to-day events on the ground, in the air and at sea during this hard-fought phase. It does so in remarkable detail because the authors have accessed previously unpublished Arab official military documents supplemented by translations from Arabic books and articles containing official and personal accounts by those involved. Perhaps the most remarkable such source is the Operational Diary of the Royal Egyptian Air Force’s Tactical Air Force based at al-Arish in north-eastern Sinai. Air Power and the Arab World, 1909–1955 Volume 10 is illustrated by abundant photographs from previously unused, or very rarely used, private and official sources, and includes specially commissioned color artworks.

As he navigates these relationships, readers are left to ponder whether he is truly seeking love or if he is subconsciously searching for the motherly figure he has been deprived of.
