Russian special military operation in Ukraine #18

Backman wrote:Turkey did its own investigation about whether mines could have been taken by the current and into the Bosphorus. It discovered that the mines would have had to been put in there a week or 2 before the war started. So now they believe it was the US behind it. And they believe the US did it for an excuse to get NATO ships in there for demining and shit.
Turkey is pissed. I think they've had enough of NATO

US regime change was successful in the Ukraine because it had the backing of the majority of the Ukrainian oligarchial elite. Not all of them.

It was successful because they didn't expect to get lied to to that degree... they were likely told they would join HATO and the EU and become the frontline of the west against evil Russia, with enormous investment and money spent to make the people of the Crimea want to switch back...

Ironically the west pretended it has become the Soviet Union where money was spent on the colonies rather than the home country... it is ironic because while the standard of living in many areas other than Russia were better than in much of Russia, you could argue that the west avoided spending any money on the Ukraine except what they had to to create the current situation... and that while not spending money on the Ukraine or eastern europe or former soviet states they are also no spending the money at home either... it is all going in to the MIC and the super rich families that own them...

Ukraine started using French artillery.

Regarding the trial and death sentences for those three men...

The three men were tried on several criminal charges. They pleaded guilty to “undergoing training for the purpose of carrying out terrorist activities”  and attempting to forcefully topple the government in Donetsk, but denied being mercenaries hired by Kiev.

So they admitted being terrorists and attempting to use force to overthrow the government in the Donetsk... I would think that would be enough in the US to get the death penality no matter where they came from.

BTW one of the British men fought in Syria for the Kurds so pretending he is not a mercenary is absurd.

BTW those French guns are highly mobile, but how well are they protecting them... I am sure the caravan hunters would like to get their hands on some of those...

In Polish shitstream media I heard thet the court is illegal, this was farse because Russians were behind that and is not recognized internationally (reads: by US/UK) they were just Ukro soldiers and are protected by convention. And British govt is in a delicate situation since talking to Russians would be equal to admit that they WERE mercenaries . How censorship let it go idk tbh

Batka Lukashenko goes to war?

Alexander Lukashenko drew attention to the fact that Belarus is an object of pressure, including for geopolitical reasons: "They (the collective West. - Approx.) until now, we have not left the goal to align the front so that it passes: Smolensk-Pskov, Smolensk-Bryansk-Kursk and there to Rostov. They need to align the front. And we, almost a thousand kilometers away, this balcony, it needs to be cut off. This is their goal - they will not stop before it, they will come from Western Ukraine or from somewhere else. Also, maybe we will have to fight for Western Ukraine so that they don't cut it off. Because it is like death for us, not only for Ukrainians. Terrible processes are happening all around."

Александра Лукашенко обратил внимание, что Беларусь является объектом давления в том числе по геополитическим причинам: "Они (коллективный Запад. - Прим.) до сих пор не ушли от цели выровнять фронт, чтобы он проходил: Смоленск-Псков, Смоленск-Брянск-Курск и туда до Ростова. Им надо выровнять фронт. А мы, тысячу почти километров, балкон этот, его надо срезать. Это их цель - они перед этим не остановятся, зайдут они с Украины Западной или еще откуда-то. Еще, может, за Западную Украину придется воевать, чтобы не оттяпали. Потому что это для нас смерти подобно, не только для украинцев. Страшные процессы происходят вокруг". https://president.gov.by/ru/events/respublikanskiy-seminar-soveshchanie-aktualizaciya-metodov-i-form-raboty-s-naseleniem-na-mestnom-urovne

Regime is literally runnig out of men.

A few days ago I posted a tweet from some dude who mentioned that the stockpile of 152mm shells are running out. The same
guy twittered that damaged weapons (like M109 and so on) have to be brought back all the way to Poland to be repaired because
there are now spare parts or trained technicians in the east of 404. All the manpower and fuel needed for this clusterfuck.

Assuming the doc is real, military service could mean anything not just frontline work, Fanboys should not make assumptions if you don't like assumptions being made about Russia.

That said lets pretend its true and it means frontline work, I suspect its not a matter of running out of men but rather putting women there to make the Russians males just stand down.

No man will enjoy killing a bunch of women and many would refuse to do their duty if it meant doing that.

War is about mind games just as much as its about killing

Another ukrainian propaganda debunked. See the comments. They take old videos and switch left and right to make it look like a new video. Desperate.

Original draft was even before the war, on last December.

Even if we won’t see many of the women on the front - their purpose is to free up the rear echelon so they can be sent to the meat grinder, also Ukrainians lack medical sisters because of increased WIA too. It’s not a good sign and it’s real, not propaganda bs this time.

By the way, it seems that some Russian mil community guys are slowly joining the DNR forces as volunteers. Morale is very high. I bet there are more “foreigners” joining separatists than foreigners joining Ukraine

so Ukrainian sniper women were not killed? If someone shoots at you you kill attacker. Regardless of sex.

I don't think pilots or artillery crews would be able to notice the difference

Also that kind of play would only boost Russian morale and ego without creating any measurable hindrances on the frontlines

Plus Russian media would have a field day (as if audience isn't tripping on it's own ego already)

Artillery gives s... about gender. In that regard artillery is very woke.

For Gunship.

Last one is fake, so i advise you to remove it. Plus, June 31 doesn't exist.

They should offer a prisoner swap - the two British mercenaries for the release of journalist Julian Assange held in British prison. Makes for a little cognitive dissonance and some uncomfortable conversations in the West.

Also, you might think that Spečial service soldier would know more about engagements. You wouldn't be able to tell a man from a female even with tits her hangind out from 150-300 meters.

Check this decisive firefight

Also, there are few videos where Russians inspect dead Ukrainian soldiers and discover a woman among them. First, they thought it was a young boy. The bodies were lying there for days and started to rot, so bag them and tag them is not possible in most cases. You poke out, shoot and move or you will get killed - not everyone has the luxury to loot the body like it's a video game.

Never. It will be destroyed. DPR/LPR don't have an ammo for it, what's the point.
