    Well, we're half-way to the Omnissiah at least thumbsup

    Dude was in the field for less than a month and now he thinks his Buk is a woman Smile

    Thanks for sharing, I don't see many videos from Russian servicemen posted AT ALL so it's interesting to see.

    The West is playing with the abyss in Ukraine. They take it as a mere "influence game" to **** with Putin but they do not understand that for Russia it is an existential problem.
    Now, what do the global elite want? Because in the event of a nuclear war and world escalation they too will be annihilated. There will be no world for them.

    I think the Polish army may enter 'unofficially' into the Ukraine, not as part of NATO - and this will be a big problem, because they will be engaged

    Poles are going to be for it, because there they have likely been persuaded into a narrative where half the Russian army has been taken out by Ukrainian anti-tank teams by now

    Something big impacted Russian territory west of Rostov-on-Don locals say.

    The Ukrainians tried to strike Belgorod with Tochka-U the other day, could be the same here.

    The 4 main insurgent cells are in Kharkov,  Donetsk, Kiev,  and Nikolayev/Odessa

    The insurgents in Mariupol were largely demolished

    The insurgents in Kharkov have also been demolished, but those insurgents work with the insurgents in Kiev

    The insurgents in Odessa can wait until the 3 other insurgent cells are cleared

    The western part of the country could be regarded as a 5th insurgent cell, but Russia and Belarus are keeping them pinned

    Russia moves huge columns and equipment due to the insurgency lacking aviation, ammo, fuel

    Aviation works over Kiev liberally and donetsk, so those insurgents are getting the usual treatment

    Those are the 2 main areas of insurgent operations

    Russia is performing search and destroy mission with good effect, hunting the insurgency on the ground and in the air

    What are the odds that Ukraine can perform somewhat successful counter attacks? The Western media has already started talking about this nonsense, but how realistic is it in the near future with Western weaponry and intelligence that they continue to get?

    The odds are high that they will launch a counter attack, the odds that their counter attacks will succeed are slim as they lack sufficient air cover and would be under gunned.  They may be locally successful such as around Kiev or Nikolayevsk but they won't gain much.  

    They already tried a few

    One near Nikolayev was successful but it was very small scale - like they managed to destroy a VDV recon platoon or company, or otherwise force the manpower to retreat

    Another one near Kiev was larger-scale but the Russians retreated only to goad the Ukrainians into a trap, and then destroyed them, assuming former positions. Seems the Russian military was tipped off

    The Ukraine doesn't have enough fuel or ammo for any big maneuvers and it would be spotted quite quickly. Maximum is some raids from within cities to Russian forward positions, like in Medieval times the beseiged army would sometimes raid the beseiging army.

Now a lot of Russians and Ukrainians are dying, young men of a population that struggles with low birth rate. Lots of flaws on russian equipment and tactics where exposed to the world...

    They were making biological weapons that targeted Russian people specifically, that is enough for this.

    Poles ain't gonna do anything, Belarus is there

    If Poles go, we will see Yavoriv x10

    Anyway, the search and destroy missions in Donetsk
    Go rather well

    Kiev ATO also

    Mariupol is in final stage of the anti insurgency

    Nikolayev and Odessa are saved for last

    And NO Kinzhal was no message, it was used for concrete bunker more than 60meters deep

    This is why Kinzhal was used, the right tool for the job

    NATO will be dealt with other goodies, they don't have VSHORADS or PVO, and good luck with SEAD in front of S400

    Mate, I've never defended any US bullshit wars, US committed many atrocities and it's a shame that they didn't pay the price for this. My problem lies on the idea that this fucking war was inevitable. To try to justify an atrocity by stating "The US did even more" it's just ridiculous.

    Btw, I'm a idiot? Ironic that you're the guy who cries for the mods to ban anyone with a non pro-russia view here. Grow up mate.

    In your opinion was this war avoidable? If yes, how and how should Russia resolve the situation?
    Words and diplomatic work certainly did not help. Calling the Western leaders as "our Partners" did not help while they were making any kind of false flag operations with Novichok on Skripals, which look after Novichok fresher then before just like Navalny. Or the invisible russian submarine in scandinavic waters that has never been seen? Or Russias meddling in US elections? Or russia blowing up facilities in Czechs Republic?

    I don't like the idea either that conscripts are on both sides and dying even if some of them are indoctrinated.

    The issue is, where ever the US has its hands on, will never let go unless you ram a knife through this hand. Do you believe negotiations would work to get Americans out of Ukraine? To stop them delivering weapons, building biolabs and working on deadly pathogens? Stopping them from looting the country and spreading russophobia?

    What I can say is, biolabs or not, the mere fact alone that there are anti-russian sentiments spread by the US with the plans to weaken, breakup and destroy Russia is for me more pretext than enough to military drive out any western forces or agents that are holding the country hostage.

    They will not leave! You need to drive them out with their tails between their legs just like their mercenaries!
    This is not to be confused that the biolabs did not happen or that they do not oppose a threat to Russia and Russians, but everything that happened before was more than enough for ANY western country to fucking invade and start bombing everything and everyone indiscriminately!

    We currently live in hard times created by weak men and I am very glad that this weak men are only on one side! This war like the coming war will make Russians harder and future more prosperous for Russians.

    Looks like the Donetsk-adjacent front is about to crumble. Russian and LDNR forces have used large caliber shell volleys (from 203 mm Malka)
    to break down the Ukr fortified positions.

    The regime forces are staging a desperate counter-attack south of Izyum. They are failing and this I think is their last gasp. It is now clear
    that when they lost Izyum, their situation on the LDNR front became terminal.

    The narrator speculates that Poland may be trying to grab the Lvov region. Supposedly this will not involve all of NATzO. I am not so sure.
    But for sure Poland has claims on the Lvov (Lwow) region. All of these clowns think that their temporary occupation of some region gives them
    rights to it in perpetuity. By contrast all the cities that Russia is surrounding were founded by Russia. They were not occupied some time in
    the past. But such nuances are too much for the typical NATzO ignoramus and sanctimonious hypocrite prat.

    The toilet cleaning Polaks were a major cause of the Azov/nationalist atrocities in bandera-stan. Behind Uncle Scam of course.

    They've had ideas above their station for a long time. Including hosting Uncle Scam's missile bases.

    Nothing wld surprise me with those creeps. Hopefully Russia is ready to give them a resounding slap.

    --------
    If Russia wants to denazify and bring justice to the Bandera-trash, it will find them in Lvov. And Russia doesn't want a rump "Ukraine" to have missile bases in Lvov, whether that is an "indepdenent" colony of America, or part of Polak expansion.

    Sorry, not in English. But relevant. The psy-ops from Ukria with NATzO involvement have been launching waves of
    attacks trying to panic Russians about their looming demise, etc. This included social media (Instagram, etc.) but
    thanks to effective counter-measures is now focusing on leveraging emo-Marxists, aka the 6th column. The ploy
    is to have the 6th column chicken littles drive people into the streets over any social discomfort such as
    food prices, etc. Basically the usual colour revolution agitation. Get the mob of lemmings into the street and then
    use them as a vehicle to engage agents to stage violence. The events of "Bloody Sunday" in the run up to the 1917
    revolution were a clear example of such tricks. People died because the mob stampeded and these deaths were
    used as rallying cries against "regime brutality".

    Because Russians won't be babysitting with Poles like they do with Ukrainians.

    Polish forces entering Ukraine would not trigger article five, Russia would need to invade Poland proper to trigger article five for the record.

    The only reason the Poles would enter the battle is to annex part of Ukraine for themselves.

    So how would they do that without breaking NATO decision not to go into Ukraine.
