Cruise missiles attacking Kiev.
T-90M is on par with M1A2 and Type 99A2.
THAT IS UNRELATED TO THE UKRAINIAN WAR THREAD.

The War in the Ukraine

With large force destroyed in severodonestk region I expect overall Ukrainian force be severely weakened. I think we can expect faster push as there are less resistence. In a few weeks the whole front line could collapse.
After this campaign there will be several brigade destroyed and those would be Ukraine's finests.
It is a good thing bulk of the combat is done in Russian friendly regions. By the time they reach hostile territory there wont be much regular army left.

Shoigu went to the front for a visit, although I don't see Dvornikov anywhere. Curious to know who's in overall command of the ops now.
The Western mainstream and Ukranian news (today and yesterday) have been posting heavily that Dvornikov has been sacked, which seems like another round of "[X general] has been removed for poor performance". The Russians have been making massive progress on the Donbass front, their tactics are working no doubt about it. Even the Ukranians announced a withdrawal from Severodonetsk. I suspect this will just be another case of a general actually fighting the war he's in charge of, as opposed to PR appearances. There were similar news about Shoigu being side-lined months back, but that has turned out to be clearly nonsense.

720 killed + (probably triple of that in wounded). RIP
This past week, Ukraine casualties have doubled or tripled in comparison to last month. It increasingly seems to me that these casualties are unsustainable and we may be approaching a point where Russia would be making rapid advances against untrained Ukrainian troops rushed to the front-lines to fill in the gaps.

From the looks of it, looks like Ukraine still attempting to retake Snake Island after countless of failed attempts to raid it, what a waste of military resources which could be pivotal in keeping Donbass front at least manageable....
Looks like a revenge missile strike in Kiev in response to HIMARS attack on residential building in Donetsk.
While it is regrettable Russia cannot bomb the bridges on Dnipr river to prevent HIMARS from reaching Donbas where they shell civilians because the bridges on Dnipr river are built on dams and destruction of dams would flood millions of civilians, what Russia should do is keep hitting Ukraine's one and only oil refinery using cruise missiles and keep taking out fuel depots. No fuel means HIMARS cannot move. And if HIMARS cannot move, then they cannot shell civilians in Donbas.

Kiev is within Iskander range from Russian soil. They can use Kh-101 but they don't need to.
Ukraine don't have the luxury of putting Territorial Defense to good use. Russia has 4 times the population of Ukraine, and that's not counting rebels. Not to mention Russia has far more military hardware than Ukraine, and the fact Ukraine has no more fuel production which makes logistics all the much worse. Whatever men Ukraine can scrap up they have to deploy to the east, on foot if need be. Over the years Ukraine will become depopulated as people flee to the west and men are up at the front instead of getting women pregnant.
