    I hope that DNR will capture tankbase, but they will need to protect themselves from air coverage, at least manpad squads some distance to the base to take on incoming air threats.

    Those T-72 and T-80 should be priority now.

    If the Odessa Druzhina rises up then they'll be able to count on some assistance from Pridnestrovie; supplies, volunteers, weapons, etc... and unlike Russia the Pridnestrovians don't give a shit about any Western sanctions.

    True..
    As free Odessa is  Pridnestrovians only hope for survival
    Aslo Odessa will disorient the "antiterror" operation of Kiev and will fell the pain on their back

    Other regions will surely rebel if Donetsk will strengthen its position, or even push the siege off it's region. Then Odessa could receive help at hand and their rise would be sooner than later. If left behind by NATO Ukr would probably stop it's operations in eastern (and then) southern regions and look for talks.

    All I hope is DNR will seize some serious armament, tanks from that base, they could just attack Ukr artillery position and push them back if did wisely.  Combined arms operation is way to go when going from defensive to assault mode. If they could pull off an attack at dawn and disrupt Ukr communications with the new interface they captured with those trucks. It could work out but should be instant.

    Oh and another parallel between Ukraine today and...ehm...other regimes...
    Filtration camps!

    Министр подчеркнул, что в фильтрационные лагеря будут помещены все совершеннолетние жители мятежных областей, включая женщин. По его словам, в них будут выявлять тех, кто связан с сепаратистами и кто совершал преступления на территории Украины.

    They are besieging a tank base at Artemovsk. Surrender negotiations have failed and there's been a firefight during which the brigade commander was wounded. As you can see from the pictures, there's quite an arsenal inside

     Arrow www.bmpd.livejournal.com/883942.html

    I wonder, why they didn't take this base earlier. This is more a reserve warehouse than military unit, so not much guards there. I think there is no ammo in this base, so they have to take other base for ammo, but they need those tanks and BMPs. I wonder if there is any SAM system like Strela-10 or Osa. Osa would be very useful.

    When they size Topaz factory, did they get any Colchuga complex too?

    So it has begun, Kiev's fascist National Guard is now rallying in Maidan for better pay and benefits (from union busting to demanding trade union labor rights), it's starting small now but just wait for the killer austerity to hit, the numbers will rapidly inflate: *the powder keg has been lit*

    "SOT Stanislav Sidorenko, National Guard soldier (Russian): "The papers officially say that soldier a gets salary of 5000 hryvnia, but upon our arrival from Slavyasnk we received 2600 hryvnia as the premium."

    Dozens of Ukrainian National Guard servicemen gathered outside a government building in Kiev on Wednesday rallying for the status of combatants, with permanent salaries and Social Security benefits.

    The national Guard is a 60,000-strong national reserve component of the Ukrainian armed forces that was revived in March 2014 to bolster the country's defences amidst political unrest.

    There have been various protests ongoing for the last few weeks. Apart from the one mentioned above, they've been protests by mothers of conscripts, people who lost their savings due to a bank going bust and so on, but they've been relatively small scale....they're using the "war fever" and "Russian threat" to divert attention from economic problems.

    ....

    Reports from Semenovka about the use of white phosphorus (or something similar)

    Direct attack is not the way to go. If there are some SpetsNas units, they should have helped DNR to capture this tank base. SpetsNas could infiltrate into the base at night and take off guards and open the gate, DNR could then join in.


    Or if DNR have some NVs then they should made some SF units off experienced soldiers. It is no way that this base is so heavily guarded that it is impossible to capture it if days before they just been talking with their tank commander?

    Fuckers using phosphorus on civilians... Ok, gloves should come off.
    If those soldiers guarding reserve base are locals then get their family members and drag them to the gates. It was done before. And no, don't let them away like it was done with Ukrainian POWs as they will join in again. Break their wrists, break the fingers so they will not join ATO again. Or simply shoot them in the back of the head and throw them in the ditch. Ukrainian army is covering losses anyways.
    I think separatists should target family members of Ukrainian servicemen. 
    Just like IRA. 
    If they are screaming about terrorists then maybe separatists should actually terrorize them. 
    How hard it would be to wreck Havoc in Kiev? 
    False flag attack on Gov or people would be the way to go.
    Maybe I'm too cruel, but I lost all the sympathy to Ukrainians. They are rabid dogs.

    So, RS is treated as a po-po - which they are. Kiev prolly thinks that it doesn't need to pay fanatics for killing their enemies, they will do it "from the free foot" which means it doesn't matter as far as they can kill some pro-Russians. It would be entertaining to see fighting between NaziGuards and maidanut gov forces.

    So it means they have managed to capture it, so prolly they have more of it. There are also some BMPs, even BMP-3.

    That one looks like T80. If that news is true then I hope there's enought gear that wasn't mobilised before by Junta.
