About the quality of "Azov" /3rd Assault Brigade OSU
Captured company commander of the 3rd assault brigade of the AFU, he spoke about the recruitment and state of the elite formation.
The story of the captured officer sheds new light on the real situation in the assault brigade. The brigade was once formed on the basis of the nationalist "Azov" regiment. In the beginning, its core consisted of ideological Nazis, motivated and well prepared.
But the situation has changed. After the battles in Bahmut and Kleščejevka, the personnel of the brigade underwent major changes. A large part of the ideological Nazis perished.
To save the "flag" the brigade began to be filled with people transferred from other formations, including territorial defense forces. This created a mix in which the quality of manpower was even worse than in other brigades, because sensible commanders never give their best fighters to other units. Basically, this was done to give the public an image that the "elite brigade" is alive and fighting.
Actually, in Avdejevka, the 3rd or 4th assault battalion was finished. They had a very dubious level of combat capability. The company commander himself, who was captured, said that he had served in the brigade for only three weeks. Before that he served in the TO brigade (Terrirorial Defense) and then suddenly found among the raiders, and even and as a company commander.
With such an approach to recruitment and manpower, the outcome of the brigade's "victorious" arrival in Avdejevka was doomed in advance. The brigade was unable to offer serious resistance to the Russian troops.

It can be very truth. The beloved by Russkie nazi tatoos are so rare among the POWs and KIAs, that there is hardly anything to show. I have only spotted some pentagrams and shit like that. Maybe we need to wait some more time, but this kind of pics were usually revealed very fast. The other thing is how they are dressed and equipped. Not much of a difference to regular cannon fodder. The age of the POW/KIA is another hint. They are no longer in late 20s/early 30s, but a regular mix of 45 y/o ...

Do you think that most of the real Nazi are now safely back from the front lines with no intention to fight but just extract wealth, ready for the trip west to safety at the end?
I was thinking about that. Some of them, obviously yes. Core neonazi thugs have left 404 a long time ago. They were too busy doing business to care about such irrelevant things as fighting for their country. Those are simply criminals, who had connections with the Polish gangs for a very long time. Drug and human trafficking are only one of the spheres where cooperate happily. Brothels in Poland were filled with Ukrainian chicks for years, and not all of them arrived here because they wished to. Some revealed information suggests the case to be even deeper shit, as those brothels were organized by the Ukro secret service, to collect data about our businessmen and politicians. How far that goes, I will just tell you that one of our Sejm marshals was ... ekhm ... hid under the radar when some rumors about him being a regular visitor raised. He liked them young, just as Bill Clinton ...
They have waste connections with all European neonazi structures.
It is really, really nasty shit
But at the other hand, the majority of bandera suckers clearly stayed and fought. I guess that those simply run out of.

Their infrastructure. Their military. Their civilians. Unless Russia fails to do this Russia will eventually lose because the West will keep escalating.
Do you not understand that the crazies run the asylum in the west. The US CONgress wants to name Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, but more Americans are getting tired of the war. Want to reinvigorate our love for war? Attack our cities and intentionally kill our civilians. Russia knocks down drones, or hits American soldiers most of us can say that's an occupational risk. You hit American civilians and the shit really hits the fan.
If I was Russia, I would make sure the Houthis and Assad government and Iran get as many American made weapons as possible and that they use them against their makers. Done just right, the American public will want to know how and why our weapons ended up in the hands of our many enemies. This will increase auditing of the money laundering scam which will make the Biden regime even less popular and will make people here lose confidence and trust in the Zelensky crime syndicate. Plus you have a shit load more plausible deniability. Senatewhore Lindsey Graham says Russia gave those weapons to our foes? Putin says, how? We're under sanctions. How do you propose we gave these guys your weapons?
Your idea only leads to nuclear fueled extinction. Mine leads to regime change

They do need help and are getting it from Iran. The US carriers are too far for them to attack. Not only do the Houthis have nothing to lose, they genuinely embrace war, and the territory of Yemen is even more difficult then Afghanistan. These are people who simply have no fear from any threat of war. They cannot be defeated or cowed.

There is a parallel with Star Wars. Russia is the rebel alliance with the Jedi knights fighting for light and good against the globalist order. The United States and NATO are the Empire managed from behind the scenes by the Jewish Sith. And many people in the world help the Russian rebels. The Palestinians, the Yemenis, the Afghans, the Iranians are peaceful and simple people like the Ewok and the Wookiees. People impossible to defeat by the Empire due to their tenacity

As the NBC news channel reports, citing two US officials, the ballistic weapons with a range of up to 300 kilometers could become part of the $ 60 billion aid package, which is currently being blocked by the Republicans. ... The US is supplying ever heavier and more extensive weapons to the fascists. This was and is to be expected. It just confirms what we knew. There must be no buffer left from which such weapons can be launched. In 10 years, these weapons will have a dirty bomb or nuclear weapon attached to the warhead. The zombies in the West will stop at nothing. No buffer, face to face with NATO!
The US are sending the ATACMS to Ukraine now because PrSM, it's replacement, started serial production. I wouldn't be surprised if they started sending air launched cruise missiles as well eventually.
I believe Russia will start killing US troops now by proxy as well as their allies (Israeli, NATO) etc.
If you observe the actions of the FSB with regard to the pilot traitor, it's clear hearts are hardening
If the only way to dissuade the US from further aggravation of the conflict is by supporting proxies they are fighting, then it will be done
And that is what we will start seeing, we finally saw news how Ecuador climbed down from the weapons deal
So Russia has begun to enforce its red lines, slowly, then suddenly
It starts with a couple of rats snuffed out, then pressure on small states who take positions against Russia, and eventually direct confrontation with the main aggressor
The US will be subject to death by 1000 cuts

Proxies don't even need that
They have what they need as far as material, they just need intelligence support
The longer the US is tied down in massive wars than they can't get out of, the less power they have to initiate any kind of economic or military confrontation with China
They wanted to cause chaos and remain uninvolved while they fought China
Thinking that their allies could manage these conflicts and US weapons support would be enough
But it turns out US allies wouldn't be able to hold on , as we see Ukraine and Israel suffering and the US unable to extricate itself
In the famous words of Mike Tyson, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face

It is clear that Russia is very strengthened. All doubts about his victory have been dispelled. The economy is calm. It has consolidated its alliance with China. It is their rivals who are nervous as they hoped to wear down Russia by destroying its economy and underestimating its military capabilities. Now they realized that they cannot win and they do not know how to get out of the war without humiliation. I predicted this was going to happen with the arrival of the US elections and the possibility of Trump. The war in Gaza has also indirectly benefited Russia by highlighting Ukrainian victimism and propaganda. For me, Russia can defeat Ukraine completely in the middle of the year once the Ukrainian army finishes collapsing along the entire front or in one of its parts.

Clever Ukrainian scoundrel.
You conveniently forgot about the at least 1 500 Polish slaves murdered in southern Italy, together with the many Polish woman enslaved and raped by their Italian and Ukrainian captors.
And now you support them and help bring them over to Poland.

I would wholeheartedly encourage them not to give up but to try & try again... The Russian army is only to willing to assist the glorious Azov regiment should it wish to regain its prior reputation....

Funny you wrote that... I've been thinking of the Galactic Empire as the Americans for a number of years now. Whenever I see a Star Destoyer, my subconscience inserts a Nimitz class CVN...
It adds a new level of enjoyment to see Vaders flagship "Executor" falling into the Death Stars gravity well and crashing into the station after her anti-grav systems are disabled...
By rolling up Pobeda and Novomikhailovka, the road to Ugledar opens
And not only that, but then Dobropolya, Kurakhovo and Pokrovsk become open
By attacking in those directions , they can get into the rear of Slavyansk-Kramatorsk
Although they would need to solve the Liman issue
But I think that will be left for summer time as there are many rivers there and the terrain is not optimal yet for an offensive
So using Ugledar as a launch pad to get to the Donetsk border is a smart move by the general staff
After the hammering that was metered out to Avdeeka by a fck-ton of FABs, I don't see Ugledar holding out for long if they repeat the treatment. Ugeldar is comparitively very small and the heavily fortified areas are quite condensed. RuAF dispensing gifts should break them in efficient fashion, then the ladz can get in there up close and personal to pay their respects...

It ironic that the Evil empire was probably the Soviet Union or Nazis when Star Wars first came out. Now its the USA.
It's really cute how western "analysts" attribute all sorts of mad skillz to Ukr forces when they can have no more than the Russian ones by definition. Back in 1990 the vast majority of the west did not know the difference between Ukrs and Russians. Now everyone and his dog is an "expert" on their distinctiveness.
NATzO training after 2014 would not have transformed Ukrs into a new species.

They are all like that.
Ukrops now and their make belief history books they created are flooding Canadian, UK and other western libraries and information spheres and they lap it up.
Even if they cant acknowledge the fact that prior to 1911, there was no Ukraine listed on a map.

In reality, before it was the Empire, it was a Republic and it was good but it was corrupted by the Sith from the shadows. So it is the reflection of the United States.
