As we all know, Ukranians are totally averse to assassinations, for realsies!. Dugin's car bomb was actually swamp gas.

I even felt a hint of humanity in this group. Did you see their website and the photo stamped on the initial body of the page? hahahaha

In Melitopol, Zaporizhzhia oblast, local residents report explosions near the airfield. Some sources claim it was 10 AFU rocket and missile attack and others claim AFU drone attacks, anyway the air defense is active in Melitopol.

Seems like major Ru milblogger including greyzone and Rybar is getting investigated for discrediting the Russian armed forces.

Ukraine is consolidating and sweeping the land they have gained and that takes time. Just like when they took Izyum there was a lull but Russian Telegram is picking up reports of a new offensive coming. Even western military officials are giving hints of a major offensive to take control of Kherson up to the Der river.

Is not like Russia hasn't been doing the same, juding by the amout of MBT's they managed to send before the Kerch bridge attack. But we'll see how it goes.

Most of the offensives in the south these past few days have gotten a bloody nose more often than not.

Also, as evidence by what is going on in Bakhmut, we have to see how to Ukranians will be able to cope if Starlink goes out during the offensive.

Seems like quite a few officers got their panties in a bunch for having their ineptitude and corruption exposed.


Wagner keeps advancing in Bakhmut. Apparently the Starlink outage has broken down the coordination capabilities of the Ukranians in the area.

Russia has carried out a series of attacks on the Dnepropetrovsk-Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog axis

They are already starting to come home.

And the evidence is a extremely cropped capture from an alleged "Z account", with no @ and only a single view from 11 am, according to the timestamp of the message, until 3 pm when he posted?

Also, that picture looks suspiciously more like an altar and less like a coffin, unless Russians have a thing for putting candles over coffins and overly large glass vases.

You could probably bury a few more Russians in them, lol.

SolarWarden said:

What a waste. It almost feels like they are being used to soke up Ukrainian ammo in the hopes they run out. With that amount of time for training a whole lot more will be coming home just like that.

Pretty sure those were the tactics used by the Ukrainians around June-July-August, when they were sending the Territorial Guard without guns to defend Severodonestk and Lysychanks

But the "expert" you dug up on YouTube, Douglas Macgregor, is one of the most ardent Putin propagandists in the US. And his statement, among other things, that the Ukrainian counter-offensive "has achieved nothing" makes me wonder if this guy is a sheep, or a comedian in a bad way.

Lol yeah, sure, Col. Douglas Macgregor is a real comedian alright. He's only one of the most successful modern battlefield commander that gained fame during the legendary (in American parlance) Battle of Eastern Hasting in Iraq and where one of his subordinate, H.R. Macmaster milked his fame to achieve a 3 star rank. Whereas, Macgregor was always headstrong and not a company man, languished in academia after being the planner of the Kosovo war for his boss Gen.Wesley K. Clark during Operation Allied Force. He wrote a controversial and influential book Breaking the Phalanx that was used by then Army Chief Gen. Reimer as his supposed blue print to a more nimble, agile Army...What is your claim to fame or record of accomplishments, General sir.

My one and only post on this topic.

And another, there are many ways of using action for the Russians, the main one is so far and what has remained intact is the fact that Zelensky is alive, the political leadership should have already been one of the main targets to be eliminated. . Perhaps as the previous colleague mentioned, when they carry out terrorist attacks in the Kremlin they may realize that they should attack as they were attacked, but depending on the course of action, it may be too late.

It is not match that every kick to the ball need comment. responses are for effective show but course stay the same.
Russia interest is that Kiev government not fall so soon nor this conflict settle down. they may get local cease fires like grain deal in Odessa. those interests are not easy to discern but that override every thing.

On the other hand, Putin indicated that there is no need to launch large and intense strikes on Ukraine now, saying: "Well now there is no need to launch massive strikes and now there are other tasks.

Now that you mention it, can't help but think of the Night Witches.

@Mod who deleted my post/response.

What the hell do you want from me? You call it borderline trolling? Seriously? Either it's trolling or its not and I wasn't trolling. Why don't you do us all a favor and just say pro-Ukranian posters have a shorter leash than pro-Russian posters in what they can post.
