Russia is going to rotate in Rosgvardia (SOBR, OMON, ODON), FSIN, FSB, FSO.

Of course the DNR/LNR have their own counter-terrorism units too

Lot of ground to sweep

A Russian Air Force drone has destroyed a Ukrainian multiple-launch rocket system by hitting it with a precision munition from an altitude of 3,000 meters, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Sunday as it published the video from the mission.

The footage shows a Russian drone taking off from an airfield before apparently switching to the drone’s black-and-white camera showing the rocket launcher opening fire on a target. The Ukrainian hardware then attempts to leave the firing position but gets struck while moving along a road.

Normal attack-defense ratios call for a 3 to 1 advantage. Russia is attacking at 1 to 2.5+ disadvantage and is winning. Scott Ritter @RealScottRitter

NOTE: Russian forces would include the Donbas militias and the most of the 60,000 Ukrainian National Guard security forces would be as well trained and equipped as the 180,000 Ground Forces.

But they can't commit all their 1st class forces to the Ukraine theatre, just incase of any escalation by them nazi lovers hato. To have 24hr coverage in just 1 given area think of the assets that are needed, ground crews, operators, logistics, vehicles etc involved just in uav operation and management.

They have 2 options, stay, or counterattack the DPR

It would be suicide for them, but they have no other choice

How would Russia deal with the potential counterattack of the VSU in the donetsk direction?

Is that what tu22m3 , tu95, and tu160 at engels are prepared for?

Massive strikes at the enemy in this direction?

The LOC is massively fortified in both directions, the nazis would really need to go full kamikaze to advance in that direction, which is sadly a possibility, but has already been learnt in Syria. Of course carpet bombing/shelling is always a possibility for the Russian forces if required.

Brazilian merc apparently saying whole foreign legion wiped out.

Can anyone translate it please?

The guy left before the attacks started. He says there were SoF from all over the world, but from the information he has they were all exterminated in one go. He says you don't know how is it for a bomber to launch a missile on you... makes it clear the kind of wars these guys are used to. This time for a change, they can learn with the best and taste the full weapons catalogue up to thermonuclear, if they want to keep playing war with Russia. Fucking morons.

Well nato generals are aware a big part of the russian army is in Ukraine so they wouldn't be able to defend let's St-Petersburg that easily which is even ore dangerous for a nato attack because that mean russians would more easily use tactical nuks.

This is actually a very bad time to try to attack Russia. Be it Nato, China or Japan or anyone else. They won't have time to move the force in Ukraine easily so they will just nuk anyone trying to take advantage of the situation.
