    And still nothing, only ottoman impotency. Again and again. Sanctions is an exhausted topic.

    Piss Russia enough and they might well go full Ottoman mode themselves and flatter one Ukrainian village by another. They have capabilities.

    Chernobyl and the airport are 75 km's apart. Imagine reinforcements were pretty close and the 45 troops would be experts at escape & evade. Otherwise the UAF would be plastered photos all over the internet.  

    Yeah about 70-80km. I thought so myself, I have friend serving in that unit that doesn't answer his social media since 2 days ago. I feel abit uneasy thinking he could have been sent to that suicide landing.

    Idiot Putin was grandstanding and giving speeches while Ukraine was being armed under his nose. This invasion should have happened 1 month ago and without the idiotic theatrics. Now those old man sent an elite unit on a suicide trip hoping for a cheap win. This entire invasion has not gone as planned and ukrops have put up a lot more resistance than expected quite frankly. I think even some of the more “diehard” guys on this forum who drink every drop of Russian koolaid are a little un easy inside.

    And just how easy are you saying this should have been? This is looking like a six-day war...maybe less. I think you're the one grandstanding here.

    The persistence of the Banderite zealots in the LDNR demonstrates that there was no point in negotiating and even talking with
    the Kiev regime. They are actually still trying to finish their ethnic cleansing objective while their rear has been obliterated.
    They are not going to get support and they will be running out ammunition very soon.

    What resistance exists in the rest of Banderastan is exactly the same Banderite zealots. They are expending themselves, which
    is basically fulfilling Russia's mission.

    I read it. What about it? Ultimately they failed and a bunch of elite VDV troops are probably dead the rest hiding in the woods hoping they run into a Russian force.

    Regardless of how it happened where Ukraine bombed their own airfield or they used artillery or just pure numerical force they prevented 18 cargo jets full of troops from landing and probably destroyed an elite Russian unit.

    Apparently we have a member here on this forum whose friend is in that unit. This makes me anger at the foolishness and incompetence of the Russian leadership. They always make Therese sacrifices with their people. Operation storm 333 comes to mind although it succeeded a bunch of elite Russian troops were basically sent to their death.

    The day hasnt' even started yet and its already looking like Kiev's about to be invested.

    Well...IF Zelensky is smart enough to order an armistice and talk peace. Otherwise, city fighting can be a real drag. I hope the negotiating starts. This war was caused entirely by too much PRIDE. The US and European states are too proud to accept a condition from Russia. The Ukrainian government was too proud to negotiated settlement with separatists. And they were too proud to acknowledge provoking a war amounted to their suicide. Satan's had his fingers in people lately. Cooler heads need to prevail now. All this death is a waste.

    What is the waste is Russian war effort. Forgive me, but it makes little sense not to use overwhelming force. It will be interesting to see the end game both politically and military. I started to hate political talk on both sides so I am not even willing to speculate what will happen next.

    What is your timeline metric? Overwhelming force doing what? Bombing cities?

    This has to be a measured operation if civilians are not to be substantially affected. The Banderite vermin will not be able to occupy Ukrainian cities
    like the jihadis did Grozny.

    So what exactly is Russia supposed to achieve by indiscriminately bombing and killing 1000's of Ukrainian soldiers and citizens? 

    They (the Ukrainians) may not like Russia but they don't support or like the neonazi thugs who terrorized them for 8 years either, which is why Russia faced so little resistance in their operation so far.

    Magnesium burns white from my chemical classes, its what you see in the footage.
    It was on an near horizontal trajectory, judging on the debri.

    soviet/russia uses magnesium compounds in their SAM missiles to boost them up to speed at launch.

    So,..my best guess SAM misfire?.

    UAF losses are astounding, more than 200 KIA

    These are Coalition losses numbers for Iraq

    It is unbelievable how savaged UAF were in day 1

    Truly monstrous what they have faced and by standoff means and probing feints only

    Looks like solid fuel burning, so I expect it might be a ballistic missile shoot-down.  Fully fuelled by the looks so it probably not an inbound munition but a Ukie missile, maybe intercepted in boost phase by Tor/Pantsir?  The footage doesn't show the misisle trail prior to its disintegration.

    The Twatter wankers speculating it is a Russian plane with paratroopers or a bomber are engaged in their usual delusions. This looks nothing like a plane and
    Ukria does not have any control of its skies. Russia would not send its transports over Kiev itself as it does not need to do so and it would make
    sure that no Ukr air defense was a threat.

    Russia has not started major air operations over Ukria yet.

    What is your timeline metric?   Overwhelming force doing what?  Bombing cities?  

    Destroying Ukrainian airfields, not hitting them ad hoc one by one (We seen L-39 targeted, MiG-29 still flying about)
    Destroying civilian infrastructure, all bridges and roads in the west of Ukraine.
    Destroying communication centres and bringing country offline.
    Destroying water supply and heating centres in the capital.
    Destroying military formations of any size and not letting them move about, it's on CCTV Livestreams, not that VSU is hiding.
    Destroying government buildings and eliminating Rada members.
    Bombing cities would be just a cherry on top, not that the world or Ukrainians will give a crap if it's 1 civilian or 1000 civilians dead, whole outrage is just that, an outrage.

    This has to be a measured operation if civilians are not to be substantially affected.
       
    Have you met Ukrainian civilians? What gives them such luxury? Did LNR/DNR civilians have the same luxury?

    The Banderite vermin will not be able to occupy Ukrainian cities
    Ukrainians occupy Ukrainian cities and they are hungry for war.

    like the jihadis did Grozny.
    Russians decisively flattened Grozny for a reason. Kiev gets other treatment, but why? Because they are white and they pretend to be Russian "brothers"?

    Any games and half measures will lead to nowhere, you will mark my words.
    Never I have seen a military campaign to be ended by pussyfooting, Russia can't get stuck there for 50 years.

    In first Chechen war you had Ukrainian volunteers fighting for the Chechens. A lot of Chechens felt the need to repay Ukraine.

    where do people get this garbage?

    Looks like Russian bomber shot down. Not a ballistic missile
    https://mobile.twitter.com/sentdefender/status/1497042959186870277

    Definitely sounds like a plane.

    What the hell are the Russians doing? This is starting to look bad. Unless it’s friendly fire by the ukrops.
