The War in the Ukraine

Heard a report that Russian 26th Tank Regiment has been completely neutralized in the conflict from an OSINT Youtuber.
Can anyone back this claim up?
Because i couldn't find any articles reporting its destruction

Ukraine made an artillery strike on downtown Donetsk which caused 5 dead and 20 injured.

So Russia stepped up its cruise missile strikes. They are raining all over Ukraine.

So can we confirm that this battle is Russia vs Ukraine/French Foreign Legion? they seem well trained in this documentary

Nah. What they call the Ukrainian Foreign Legion is a mishmash of foreign volunteers. Quite far from an organization like that.
The Russians already said they will be treated as mercenaries, i.e. won't fall under the Geneva Convention and can be shot on sight.
They already captured several at Mariupol.

Ruslan Stefanchuk, the Speaker of Ukraine's Parliament, stated that Berlin may provide Kiev with submarines. Mr. Stefanchuk provided this information during his visit to Germany in the context of Russia's ongoing military action in Ukraine.

The leader of Ukraine's parliament, speaking ahead of a meeting with German Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht on June 3, said that "the supply of the most modern equipment to Ukraine" and swift decision-making on the issue will bring the "shared victory" over Russia closer.

Even if they did, they would have to send those subs through the Turkish Straits. They were closed by Turkey.
While Russia could theoretically transport subs through the Russian canal system. The whole idea is absurd.

Germany has 6 submarines in service in total. Russia has 6 submarines in the Black Sea Fleet alone. With a 7th currently in trials after upgrade to carry the Kalibr.

looks like one of the most fervent anti Russia governments in Europe has collapsed. they day is due to Russian meddling but reality is likely the 20% inflation!


Media is trying to portray this as a battle to prevent Russian influence but virtue signaling doesn’t put food on the table or gas up your car.


Boris also in trouble due to Cost of living likely fallout from sanctions. Ironic that the sanctions they enacted are having this effect. No wonder the African Union is meeting with Putin and along with most of Asia, refused to sanction Russia

If the Russians are really throwing all their reserves into urban fighting in Sievierodonetsk in a desperate attempt to capture the city at all costs, they are even dumber than I thought. Experience has shown they aren't good at urban warfare. Besides Kherson, they haven't been able to take any major city that they haven't previously surrounded (Mariupol) and that took forever. The slow and steady grind in Donbass was working for them very well, why suddenly switch back to the failed March/April strategy of Leroy Jenkins into the middle of big cities?

The better strategy for them is to try and cut off the Ukrainians in Sievierodonetsk and Lischank by taking Bakhmut, and then slowly wearing them out after they are surrounded.

Throwing in their reserves? Now that sounds like the... opposite of throwing in the towel, which you claimed a month ago would happen "soon," don't you think? Or does "soon" mean a year or something in your clown language?

So you were wrong, ignore all calls to address it basically pretending it never happened, and now you're calling other people dumb... sounds like a killer combo for an American politician! You should definitely run if you're not. Go for broke; ask Gordon Chang to be your running mate for 2024 and put MAD, SNL, Daily Show out of business LOL
