If the Russians are still trying to cross the Donets then is it reasonable to assume that Ukraine have no significant presence on the eastern bank?
And the railway from Belgorod to Izyum is still secure and out of range (> 20km) of Ukrainian artillery?

Just a tip for you. If you put an enter at the end of your link, this twitter post will show up.
But maybe you prefer just to post a link?
Another failed bridging attempt? https://twitter.com/MateuszSobiera3/status/1527591936198119424?s=20&t=OijS-0pYor2mIrUaKfBpDA
It would be another disaster for them if they did that. Untrained demoralised soldiers with poor equipment and poor leadership would be massacred on a WW1 scale.
things are really heating up on the eastern front, how long before Russia mobilizes its country fully?
Last time they take advice off the ra
Putin has a son in law named ........... Zelensky 🤣
I don't think it has much to do with Russia sentiments there. Poland is exactly the same divided as far as PiS is concerned. West is more modern and simply richer, while East of the country is poorer, so more dependant on government's help for simple survival. That's why populists promises will always win in the East. The same is with US North and South. Conservatists are always popular among those, who want to feel safe and poorer people have their basic needs for survival very strongly felt. Richer people don't think about survival, it's granted for them. They think about higher needs like freedoms of all kinds, not about providing bread on the table.
She sounds like shes hitting the top shelf from the time she wakes up til the time she goes to bed. Coming out with such utter waffle constantly has to take its toll.

The whole thing is becoming a grotesque debacle.
Some balls on that pilot ... Flying over Hungary
Happy birthday, Christo Grozev!
Quote from a Russian man in Russia.
'The Kremlin likes to portray President Vladimir Putin as a leader who is supported by his people. The authorities insist that Russians back him on Ukraine' Dmitry claims it is an illusion.

I remember from the first week of the invasion, there was a video of a local woman giving sunflower seeds to some russian soldiers, telling them to put them in their pockets and saying something like "when you die on Ukrainian soil, something good will grow out of you". I thought it was a ballsy thing to say, but by now there's bound to be a fair amount of sunflowers grown out of the nutrients of dead russians.
Ousting Putin might end the war (it might not) but it certainly won't end the threat that Russia poses or change its course as a country. Its rotten to the core, corruption at every level of society. Its ran like a criminal gang and anyone that comes in with notions of disrupting the status quo will be disposed of quickly. There's just too many people suckling on the criminal teat to change it. Politicians, police force, judges, lawyers not to mention actual mafia and oligarchs. I don't see a way forward for Russia. It will still loom large as a threat to all its neighbours and the world in general.
What I find of GREAT interest is why P using, some oligarchs, the most senior army officers / government officials - but especially Putin have not been ‘taken out’ by the ‘ FATWA’ system. The Islam believers have had plenty of reasons for such action - the most recent one being the Checynan war. Don’t tell me that there are no Chechnynans prepared to become suicide bombers.
it beggars belief as to why the Chechnya Muslim community did not exercise its ‘nuclear ‘ option
I assume that this ‘fact’ is ‘BREAKING NEWS’. First I’ve heard of it.
Could he not be ousted today? Three months is too long to keep on with this stupid war.
Good man yourself ,Z, nothing like a ‘bit of balance’ being injected into the opinions/discussion points/ sharing of ‘facts’/ etc, etc here
"Forte11" is seen on patrol near Moldova. The USAF Global Hawk UAV has been in the air for over 10 hours. Its based out of a NAS in the North of Sicily and switches its transponder on just off the coast after doing a 360 control and communications check. If you zoom in on its base, you can actually see one of the Global Hawks on the Apron surrounded by support equipment. Comparing it to the C-130's nearby gives you an idea of scale.

The longer the post the better greenpilot. Always interested in your take on the aviation side of this conflict.
Dont know who this is but what he says makes perfect sense
Putin knows he has lost the war and will be ousted in 3 months
Territorial changes have slowed, but the killing continues apace in the Donbass.
Still the biggest thread on here
For mobile users that would be appreciated.
And brand them on their asses as well. So they remember every time they sit down.
I'll try to limit my posts to single sentences going forward...
But then again, at a marvellous grand total of 53 ( soon to be 54 ) posts, I forgot to say, welcome to Boards, again.
Nice IP address you've got there, shame if something were to happen it..
