Pacific Fleet marines there have been getting assblasted by bunch of apes for weeks now
Morons tried to attack that place last time across wide open terrain while leaving buildings standing and to surprise of absolutely no one they got turboraped and kicked out like little bitches
Who could have expected the enemy to take shelter in the only elevated location in the area? Those Ukrainians must be strategic geniuses...
They aren't worth the fuel it took to drive their incompetent asses all the way from the Far East
Looks like Wagner will yet again have to do all the heavy lifting and Russian Military will keep pretending how they were totally helping out and didn't get their asses kicked repeatedly
But at least they will have nice new uniforms from "start-up" company which totally isn't knockoff of American stuff...

Most of those vehicles look abandoned with various degrees of damage. But only a few are actually roasted. So no need for sensationalism. They can be recovered and repaired later. Main priority is preserving personnel. If you lose qualified personnel you can't just produce more in some factory, or mix & match parts to get them working again. Manpower and the tolerance of society for loses among their loved ones is the ultimate limiting factor; not how well you take care of your armour.
And Arkhangelsk, much as I would like those apartment blocs to be demonstratively leveled with Kinzhals; you know they can't do that. Mariupol already demonstrated how they would garrison the top floor with goons while keeping civilians in the lower floors or basements, as shields of a sort. Probably the same deal in Ugledar. Urban warfare is very ugly and losses are inevitable. Especially when you can't simply raze the city block by block with artillery as you advance. Russia can't do that there as that's our own people.
Wagner was successful in Soledar primarily because they outmaneuvered and tricked the Ukrainian defenders, and managed to wedge themselves in and then liquidate its large garrison without further issue. That sort of thing is not always possible to replicate though, and when you can't replicate it you can end up with a battle like Mariupol where the city just has to be probed and picked apart piece by piece.

AFU lost drones in Artemovsk due to "trench" electronic warfare: details
Since January 2023, UAV operators of several large AFU formations in Artemovsk have lost at least a hundred commercial drones used to adjust artillery and mortars. Drones do not have time to reach the positions of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation—they are suppressed by previously unknown electronic warfare complexes.
For the first time, units of the 80th separate airborne assault brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine encountered such a phenomenon in November last year in the area of Kremennaya; however, mass failures of drones since the end of January have been recorded only in the area of Artemovsk (Bakhmut).
The mass neutralization of Ukrainian drones may be related to the operation of portable electronic warfare stations that appeared at the front relatively recently. According to the AFU radio intercepts, we may be talking about a small device placed either in the nearest forest or directly on the ground, in the same trench as the infantry.
According to captured UAV operators of the armed forces of Ukraine, when enemy drones are detected in the sky, the system automatically begins intercepting and forcibly landing the drone outside the positions of the Ukrainian infantry.
Due to the operation of such devices near settlements in the south of Artemovsk (Bakhmut), liberated from the Ukrainian army in the autumn and early winter of 2022, the Armed Forces of Ukraine almost completely stopped conducting aerial reconnaissance, dropping grenades, and spraying toxic substances over the positions of ground units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

That thing is a travesty. Selling a cheap Chinese shit for 10 times the price.

I mostly agree with you, but I'm not sure if the planning and tactics are right. These vehicle losses are too high for such a small part of the front line. You don't have to be a military genius to see that charging over wide open pre-mined fields with plenty of drones overhead and unsuppressed arty is suicidal. Not to mention that they got bogged down after some successes in first few days.
Bloomberg: 86% of frozen Russian assets unaccounted for, location unknown, and can't be transferred to Ukraine as a result. Embarassed
That is a double edge saber It can mean better than you have stolen that already. But seriously, this is what I have told you a while ago. They can't find the money. While the investments at a much bigger scale are all out there in Russia...
Edit : those mobilized look like grabbed from the streets, gyms and shopping centers. Clear to me!

One of the reasons Wagner is capable of better advancement than the actual russian army is simple, they do not have to adhere to these silly ROE's.
I also suspect as Wagner has experienced commanders given their smaller size whereas the Russian army clearly has incompetent fools in various areas which is often a peace time problem people who get promoted often aren't good in field commanders and are just good at boot licking and going by the book to get promotions

Russia also recruited convicts, that said Ukraine has millions more men left even by pro-russian sources, they aren't in any danger of running out of men, why this silly narrative keeps getting persisted is foolish.
It's not true at all, no matter how much you want to believe it.
And why is Kiev "Kyiv" ? The culprit for what you got in Ukroshitstan is not primarily the West, but the Russians themselves, who agreed to let the red vermin tear apart the former state both religiously and territorially. Russia has existed since the end of the 9th century and not since 1917. And whether you like it or not, you Russians did lose millions of Russians who became Ukroshitstans from 1922 due to the harmful influence of Bolshevism. Millions have forgotten their roots in Ukroshitstan. That's why that shithole is Kyiv today. LENIN is the greatest enemy of Russia ever and Russians are still dying in Ukroshitstan because of him. Is this true ? I think it is..
How should ugledar be taken then? The marines' gtactics clearly arent working. Khodakovsky said theres no coordination between the 155th and neighboring russian army units.

This is not exclusive to just Marines. Both Russian and Ukrainian army just throws armoured vehicles at problems. Vuhledar is a shitshow and very poor performance by both sides. Well, now Russian marines are being paraded as POWs. At least this batch wasn’t executed.
“Most of those vehicles look abandoned with various degrees of damage. But only a few are actually roasted. So no need for sensationalism“
Just like the ones during Northern Offensive or Kharkov? Loss is a loss.
Supposedly these losses. It was a panicked shitshow. NSFW, man is burning
