    Not exactly sure of the overall figures but this would certainly indicate a high casualty rate amongst the foreign mercenaries. Wonder who is covering the costs for these fools?

    Absolute faggots.
    And these are the Western stats!

    I heard of plenty of circus freaks in England and Europe being promised "1.5k usd PER DAY"
    for all manner of "security work".
    It's a pity more of these vermin didn't take up the offer.

    I wonder where being dead counts in the "severe disability" stats.

    Plus there are the so called "instructors" ie serving Western military staff.
    There has been a significant number of more snr ranks from France, GB, USA etc liquidated.
    So how many of the more jnr ranks?

    Your butt buddies hit a decoy radar - as per usual. The Serbian microwave trick is still undefeated to this day.

    What`s funny is they captured an intact blue sparrow missile from this fail of an attack. A few months from now you`ll probably get your missile back - with interest of course. Razz

    Majority of the "Polish" are ethnic Ukrainians from Poland.


    I wonder why the Colombians fare worst, perhaps they are not used to the colder environment?

    Or is it due to the language barrier? I am not certain of this, but perhaps very few Ukrainians speak Spanish, and it is rare for people in Colombia to speak English.

    Or perhaps the Ukrainians want them dead because there is lots of Jewish ancestry in Colombia?

    Panic has begun in the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region, Alaudinov said, 10.10.2024.

    Alaudinov: Panic reigns in the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region, the enemy is fleeing across the border.

    MOSCOW, 11 Oct - RIA Novosti. The Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk direction are in confusion, a large group of enemy equipment has fled across the border, said the commander of the Akhmat special forces, deputy head of the main military-political department of the Russian Defense Ministry, Major General Apti Alaudinov.

    "The enemy is losing really serious areas every day... Today we observed a picture where a very large group of enemy equipment simply fled from the territory of the Kursk region , ran across the border... having lost some of their tanks, which were burned on the move," Alaudinov said on the air of the Russia 1 TV channel.

    In addition, according to him, the Russian military destroyed the entire battalion headquarters and its commander; the enemy was not even able to evacuate the bodies and wounded.

    "I can now say that our enemy is in some confusion here. Indeed, he is panicking, and we are recording this... I would like to note that at this rate, we will probably soon be able to report that the Kursk region has been liberated," added Alaudinov.

    On August 6, Ukrainian Armed Forces units invaded Kursk Oblast, capturing some border territories. Their advance was stopped. A counter-terrorist operation is in effect in Kursk, Belgorod and Bryansk Oblasts.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that the Kiev regime had carried out a provocation and was firing indiscriminately, including at civilian targets. Putin said that the enemy would receive a worthy response, and all of Russia's goals would be achieved.

    The secret of victory over Russia is revealed, by David Narmania for RiaNovosti. 10.11.2024.

    Volodymyr Zelensky deserves credit - he knows how to surprise. True, in recent years, it is rather the statements that are completely out of touch with reality and stubbornness that could be put to better use that have caused surprise. Just look at the recent teaser of the Ukrainian "victory plan".

    It is amazing how self-confidently Zelensky, imagining himself a cunning merchant, wanders around sponsorship offices with this very plan, and even manages to portray it as a secret behind seven seals.

    As a speculator, he secretly shows the "victory plan" to the most generous supporters of Kiev , adding in a half-whisper: "Just to no one!" The dumbfounded Western politicians, looking at the fabrications of the Krivoy Rog strategist, throw up their hands in bewilderment, not understanding the point of this feigned secrecy.

    Thus, in the White House, having learned about the contents of this plan, they called it a "set of initiatives", which translated from diplomatic into Russian means "a wish list". This formulation suggests that there is no coherent logic in this plan that would allow Ukraine to make the journey from point A (a very tangible threat of the front collapsing) to point B (the triumphant exit of troops to the 1991 borders).

    Zelensky arrived in London with this very list the day before . Apparently, the current British Prime Minister Starmer is less favoured by Bankova than his predecessors, so the first two points from the list were made public the day before.

    And here even Ukrainians were surprised.
    It turned out that victory was close. All that was needed was such a trifle as joining NATO.

    From president to president, from revolution to revolution, Ukrainians dream of joining the alliance. Generations replace each other, thousands and thousands of refugees "disappear" at the front, but the dream does not get closer. Sometimes, promises of joining NATO from Ukrainian politicians for their voters resemble a cognitive test. And Ukrainians, alas, fail it time after time.

    The whole problem is that to get into the coveted club with dubious prospects, manifestations and requests to the Universe alone are not enough. The accession of a new member to the alliance must bring some benefits to all other participants. And Kyiv is not very good at this.

    The only promising bonuses are the non-figurative threat of a third world war and the possibility of exchanging blows with weapons of mass destruction. The offer is exclusive - only for those who have these weapons.

    In general, the marketing of Ukraine's application to NATO is so-so. Only the Baltic republics are ready to openly support it, whose leadership is 50% hatred of Russia and another 50% willingness to serve Western sponsors.

    There is also a second point in the plan - permission to strike deep into Russia. It is also, to put it mildly, stale. Zelensky went to the States for long-range weapons back in September, and Western media outlets were throwing in that Kyiv would get them. However, instead of the formidable JASSM and permission to use the already received ATACMS as he sees fit, Zelensky took only JSOW from the trip, which, against the backdrop of Ukrainian requests, looks more like a handout.

    But the cheerful and courageous Commander Zelensky reminded the crew of the Ukrainian airliner in distress that Rammstein was ahead and that Kyiv would get what it wanted there! However, providence intervened here - Biden and Blinken announced that they would not go to the summit because of Hurricane Milton. In the end, it turned out to be not as formidable as expected, but the meeting of the coalition in support of Ukraine itself was decided to be postponed due to the absence of key figures. The dates are not disclosed, and it is still unclear whether the summit will take place under Biden, or everyone will wait for the election results.

    Even if it takes place under the current occupant of the White House, Zelensky has little chance of getting what he wants. Many Western politicians and military personnel agree that long-range weapons strikes will not be able to radically change the situation on the battlefield.

    But this is secondary. The two points outlined demonstrate the crisis of ideas of the Ukrainian leadership - they are unable to come up with anything new. At least, so as not to worsen their own situation, as happened after the adventure in the Kursk region.

    Zelensky's plan is unrealistic, and Bankova understands this perfectly well. But he remains in power as long as the fighting continues. He cares little about how many Ukrainian lives each day of his rule costs. For him, war has already become the only way to continue to exist.

    And here he is at different poles with the ordinary Ukrainian. But whether the ordinary Ukrainian will be able to comprehend this, we still have to find out. At the very least, the "victory plan" is a fat hint for those who will have to die for this plan.

    And you can guarantee they wont read the fineprint in the contract that says they can harvest your organs when you die which is going to make them a lot of money if they can find your corpse... and it is in one piece...


    Or perhaps the Ukrainians want them dead because there is lots of Jewish ancestry in Colombia?

    There were complaints by Colombian families that their men were returned with most of their internal organs missing, so maybe they had European customers for parts...

    Video clip about Russian Lancet destroying an Ukrainian FPV team, in the battle of Kursk.

    The Ukrainians considered that FPV as the solution for many of their perceived problems. As a natural result, formal organization of FPV forces is necessary. Ukrainian forces can do that because they already have the manpower and the remaining tasks are just organizing them into units and providing equipment.

    However the problem of Ukrainians us that they have no unified and synchronized organization, and their FPV forces are formed by "natural selections", i.e. the surviving models will be the adopted model.

    As a results, turning them into fixed organizations from such unorganized background lead to huge problems. For example, in the clip, we can see that the destroyed Ukrainian FPV team did not have adequate camouflage for their vehicle. Other Ukrainian units suffered from shortcomings in training of replacements, and inadequate electronic warfare.

    Russian military have liberated 15 settlements in Kursk Oblast previously occupied by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This was reported in an interview with kp.ru by Deputy Chief of the Main Military-Political Directorate of the Ministry of Defense Apty Alaudinov.

    He said that the Russian Armed Forces are advancing in the Donetsk direction in ten areas. According to Alaudinov, they are liberating "one or two settlements" every day.

    “We are unlikely to agree to turn our backs and leave these same four (new ones. — Gazeta.Ru) regions,” Alaudinov said.

    Since August 6, Russian troops have been fighting with Ukrainian units in the Kursk region. Since August 10, a counter-terrorist operation regime has been in effect in the region.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that the Ukrainian Armed Forces' invasion of the Kursk region is an attempt to stop the advance of Russian units on the territory of the DPR, LPR and Novorossiya. The head of state promised a worthy response to Ukraine for its attacks on the border.

    Earlier, the Kursk court arrested seven servicemen of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
