Russian special military operation in Ukraine #49

franco wrote:Currently, approximately 500 servicemen of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are captured by Ukrainian forces. This was stated by the head of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) Denis Pushilin on Soloviev Live.

That's why prisoner exchange became senseless a long time ago.
Ukrs were insisting for "everyone for everyone" format, when some time ago already one of their upper hands revealed that their reservoir of prisoners for exchange is "empty".

Edit : this is something that blows up my mind ...

Just one more DRG simply killed and drowned into the sea, minus some sole souls lucky enough to get captive.

There were 16 of them, dispatched from a small fishing boat and ordered to make a landing using .. jet skis
The only purpose of that, was to put a flag on the shore and ... make a photos of how they are into Crimea
16 soldiers sent to die, for 10s TikTok.

How do you deal with a minefield?

Hovercraft?

Hovercraft and armour are mutually exclusive.

Will we hear wailing about ebil Rosshians bombing villagers from the NATzO MSM.

Do we have any idea how old it was?

Looks like you didn't get a joke
I was telling the story a while ago.
Ukrainian soldier on training in Germany was yapping about how the NATO training did not match the war realities.
He asked the instructor what are NATO procedures for crossing the minefields.
He gets an answer to bypass it.
The biggest minefield NATO/western troops ever faced in the last 30+ years, was some in Iraq that was cited to be a whole 2 km wide.
In Ukraine, minefields can be 100 km wide, with constant changes and new mines applied by remote mining systems.
German training officer had nothing to say about that, he just shut up.
It was just amazing to watch ...

It's not a reading of Tea- leaves , by mystic Meg ( septic peg )  ! The writing is on the wall . The Orcs are being abandoned . Nobody is betting any more money on this lame Horse . Suddenly , no more money and no more Arms for the Orcs ! Shockingly , pro-Russian politician elected in Europe . And now Russia confidently destroy Orc HQ ! So the ability to find and destroy bunkers , was always there . No excuses now . Civilians can be given warning , as I said before . Flares landing in hot zone , prior to strike , should clear civilians and Orcs from site . Then the heavies will arrive . Moral duty and obligation for humanity completed .




LOL . Now Mrs . Jellyinsky will have to find short blonde English man ( ask septic peg ) as alternative to Mr . Jellyinsky ! No tall handsome Asiatic types for her !

Those sick bastards have published own film covering the latest Crimea "landing"

https://t.me/DDGeopolitics/83960

They have seriously presented pics of people already dead, killed by attempt, to prove a peremoga.

We are talking about a clinical condition here. Seriously clinical condition

And of course those sick motherfukers put a statement about "either Crimea will be Ukrainian or desolate" at the end.
We talk about some fukin cancer ...

Meanwhile 500 + days and Russia without Wagner is incapable to take Avdeyevka, Kupyansk, and gets pushed from Verbove and Rabotino

But they say "300,000" are waiting somewhere

allow me to say the truth, 50,000 KIA, and 200,000+ wounded, and you have the reality, volunteers are enough to replace the frontline troops, and to create a rotational reserve

For Russia, cargo 200 or 300 is irrelevant, they are combat ineffective anyway and removed from the frontline

And yes 200,000 wounded , maimed by mines, drones, shrapnel, splinter, and other wounds, they are recognizable as they are relatively young and in crutches or wheelchairs, or in blue MOD suits

It is a defeat of a scale of Tsushima, Russia has to wait for American political events to happen to have any hope of an agreement in Ukraine - and call it attrition war

The west smashed Russia in Ukraine, Russia can keep destroyed donbass, Lughansk, and evacuated Crimea (the BSF has largely been moved to Novorossiysk)

And the west will simply redirect its efforts to Armenia and Kazakhstan when the time is right

The clock is ticking for Russia, but they bank on some kind of economic downturn, or perhaps a political scandal to save them -

The worse part is, if by dumb luck they are saved by such events - they will manage not to be routed, but they will still be defeated

The goals of the SMO were to remove NATO to 1997 positions, and to denazify and demilitarize Ukraine

Fast forward, and Finland is preparing military installations near Lagoda and Karelia

Crimea is not even a saving grace, as losing Moskva, a submarine, and multiple landing ships make it impossible to use for any purpose other than as a missile sponge

Another symbolic waste by incompetents in Moscow, maybe Gergiev can play Prokofiev there for old times sake

Quite pictures and bold, yet close to the truth ...

The Ukrainians claim to have destroyed an s-400 system?

No need, no mobilization will be done,

Shoigu says he has volunteers,

But reality is, after peacekeepers got killed in Nagorno-Karabakh,

The Russian social media space is unanimously of the opinion that serving in the military is

1) only good if you need the money, mostly its Bashkirs, Buryats, Chechens, Dagestanis, Tuvans, Kalmyks,

Ethnic Russians are far and few rushing to the local recruiter and the reasons are ample :

2) its a good way to get yourself killed or wounded with a nice medal/payout, but nothing will be done to keep you off limits to whoever is gunning for you

Be it Azeris, Armenians, Ukrainians, Americans, Syrians, Africans, and even blacks from the south of Russia, but the list is extensive of who can kill a Russian serviceman without repercussion

So it's better not to serve, unless you really need the money

These clowns ain't drafting noone, it would make the March for justice look like child's play

Theyl keep coping until they can sign a deal with the Americans, or theyl be in deepshit if Biden wins this round of internal American political drama

Ark wrote:It is a defeat

No it is not . Nor is it a complete victory . Most here think that Russia can fight for longer and that maximum effort has not been made . I tend to think that Russia is nearing maximum effort and then not much point in dragging this along , for that much longer . Russia said " SMO , over in 2025. " I think , given some facts on the ground , that this is a little bit on the long side . But good enough ! If what you say is true about Russian casualties  , then sad as it is  , it shows strong determination also . I already talked about the " writing on the wall , " for Orcs . They are being slowly abandoned . It is however for Russia to decide to strike and advance , not be concerned with " world" opinion , or the possible retaliation or even direct confrontation . At some stage , this may be unavoidable , and necessary , to end the war . There are some things that remain a mystery to me and others , about the conduct of the war , that I do not understand . Maybe one day , it will become clear .

Apparently Zelensky's wife went on a shopping spree in the States and spent $1.2 Million (US dollars) buying expensive stuff, hopefully people in the west see this.

You sound like you are trying to justify yourself. Need to talk about it?

Mir wrote:Nobody in their right mind wants to get killed on a voluntary basis - unless you are an extremist - but sometimes when the chips are down you will have to stand up and fight for what is rightfully yours. Russians have made great sacrifices over the centuries - and they will do it again - and again.

Fighting for what? Some unknown village? For NATO to be on the Karelian border? To be humiliated before the world?

Noone expected this to be such a disaster, but if you want to talk about doubling down on incompetence, Moscow is the shining example

unfortunately we must deal with this leadership for the foreseeable future,

we are not even respected by monkey Azeris lol, we are the last on the food chain, a walking placard for global loserdom, we replaced cuba, Arabs, Africans, and north Koreans with stunning results

Whether Biden wins or not will have very little to do with the final outcome - which is not very far off into the future.  

The final outcome of permanent war inside of Russia is already achieved

NATzO clown deciders just need to wish harder to make their desires come true.

Not sure where the data is taken from but an interesting video graph. January 12, 2022 to September 15, 2023.

Video infographic demonstrating the balance of power between the RF Armed Forces and the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

From the data presented it is clear that Ukraine began active preparations for the conflict two months before it began

https://twitter.com/Ramy_Sawma/status/1709649688079589495

Use of only recruited force numbers is highly misleading. As of the winter of 2022/23 Russia had an advantage in the actual number of
forces on the ground. Out of that nearly a million Ukr force number about half are lost and a big fraction of the rest is not at the front
since they have to be rotated.

Also, the accumulation of the ideal troop numbers is way too smooth. Ukria is on its 3rd army and the mobilized 300,000 from Russia were
not sent to the front in daily increments. They were trained first. Russia took longer to train then better. So there should be surges
of deployment.

This graphic is really for entertainment purposes.
