Meanwhile in Belgorod
Absolutely.
There is a good podcast on the pacific front during ww2 (about 30-40 hours) https://open.spotify.com/episode/2lqNevhLx08QPmvCLjhS4g?si=nAVUxnM3QDqs2_K5r2bV_g
called supernova in the east, don’t remember exactly which episode but he eventually explores the incredible and unparalleled (even by German nazis) brutality by the Japanese in the pacific, completely inhuman.
Anyways, the reason i mention it is that it is the only recent historical analogue to the unbelievable evil and cruelty which is creating atrocity after atrocity on the Russian side almost daily now.
I hope we don’t just become desensitised to these. Today report of actual figure of 113k civilians dead in a city that was completely levelled, last week using a scull for performance, before that heads on spikes, before that castration on camera , before that murder on camera and so on and on.
And yet Russians instead of reflecting on what sort of society does this, are for most part busy holidaying here in Europe, surreal
There was several large fires in occupied Crimea again today.
Another American aid package being announced in the coming days along with a aid package from Sweden,and a possibility of the Archer system being sent at some point,
The swedish Archer is a mobile artillery system built on a truck very accurate, fast firing,and minimum crew , mostly automated too , it can drive to a location fire off rounds in under a few minutes and pack up and leave just as quick
They would be a game changer
It's from a Ukrainian Twitter account, but quotes a Russian source. He only posts (reasonably) reliable Russian sources that use Telegram, not the non-Russian, Putin-faboi's who are on Twitter who post bollocks.
But zero evidence any of it is actually fact ,
Oh the Russians said we're beating them .
Remember 3 days to Kiev
Any chance you can translate it? We don't all speak Ukrainian or Russian.
It's an impressive system. It can fire multiple rounds at different trajectories to achieve a "Time on Target" effect i.e. all rounds arriving at the same time even though fired several seconds apart. Having fired, it can pack up and be gone while its shells are still in the air, leaving the enemy shooting back at nothing.
Remember Putin has 2 weeks to live, Russia has enough money to keep the war effort up for another 2 weeks, the ghost of Kyiv etc...
Both sides use propaganda. It's what happens in a war.
Ha. That’s apparently a years old interview with a clubber about dance music with a fake translation, and has been used in loads of memes
Putin is sick, evidence in his latest video slumped to one side and fat fingers on one hand ,
But simple a simple we are seeing the Ukrainian strikes ,we know where they are currently pushing and where they plan to go to ,
3 times I've seen it claimed on here Ukraine taking massive losses and the Russian airforce hitting them hard , according to orc's.
Yet no evidence to back up the claims
Russia self-immolating
Time will tell. We are all hoping for a swift Ukrainian victory let's see what's what in a months time.
If this is a fact,then Russia have alot of explaining to do
Ukraine is rotating their troops,fresh troops just joined in eager to fight with new NATO weapons
Genocide.
They are currently in the middle of destroying evidence at the Mariupol theater , pumping chlorine and concrete into the building to try hide what they did
Big pinch of salt ,it's Russian opinion pieces , geared towards implicating nato
Mariupol could end up being this war's Belsen-Bergen. The Allies weren't even aware of the existence of the camp prior to liberating it in April 1945 (hence their utter horror at what they found there). If Mariupol is ever liberated, we could end up hearing thousands of horror stories of what actually happened in the city.
Doesn't even bare thinking about. 😥
The bizarre part of it is that Mariupol was largely a Russian speaking city. They have killed those whom they lied about coming to protect.
Honestly, they already have Caesar which performs a similar role, and PzH2000 for another. Instead of adding yet another new type for the maintainers to try to keep track of and gunners to learn, they're be better off getting more of what they already have.
Exactly , then deportating 500,000 + kids to be forcibly adopted to russian families on the far side of Russia ,
And there's been pretty much radio silence about it,
Watch as Russia will blame the Azoz battalions on carrying out the genocide and Posters on will run with it for years
Which makes total sense,I remember early on in the discussion suggesting the Archer system for ukraine at some point, but if I remember correctly, and you might have a better idea but isn't there less than 15 systems In the swedish military operational and a few being tested in Aberdeen for US army trials ?
Only recently the Ukrainian were getting blamed on damaging the PZHs , but I believe the Germans had the same issues with the system too
Ye seen that,concrete straight over dead bodies
I know,but its the only sources we have unfortunately simce Ukraine have gone silent during the offensive
We will see in a few days how its going.
There are some indications atleast
Russia running low on missiles,hope they are right
Oddly enough russian strikes on Kharkiv today came from s300 air defense systems ,the most dangerous air defense in the world has yet to shoot down anything of note is now being used to hit Ukrainian cities, which does suggest Russia is running low on heavy and smart munitions of all varieties
Apparently, there is a lot of activity in and around Kharkiv late tonight, not just Russian missile strikes. Seems the Ukrainians may be advancing somewhere in the region (residents can see numerous prolonged flashes in the direction of the Ukraine-Russia border, as if a battle is underway).
Its been said for while now,Russia have spent over 3000 missiles so far,so i guess they get them from somewhere,last was from Belarus,but now its probably all gone soon.
That sounds very interesting Gatling. Ever since father of the present Mr. Kadyrov got blown up in Grozny, (which shows just how the opposition viewed the family even back then,) and they have not gone away. There's even a Chechen Govt in exile, and they have been hindering the Kadyrov's all the time, but unable to topple them. Seems like now they could be increasing the pressure. If ( or more likely when) Putin rides off into the sunset, and Kadyrov Jun. no longer has his support, I think that you will see big changes in Chechnya. There are lots of rural villages and towns where you will find it hard to find military aged men, they have "taken to the wood's" to avoid Kadyrov's militias. For all his boasts about fighting in Ukraine, Kadyrov's men only have experience in hunting ( and killing) small Nrs of Chechen opposition that they heavily outnumber and out gun.
