@Overbom bro their Eastern flank is protect by China, maybe a statement to the NATO, they can bring more force to bear like what they did in Stalingrad during WW2.I dont think its that the casualties are extremely high.
Most likely the problem is that there are too few troops for this invasion. From day 1, I called it that Russian troop numbers at the Ukrainian border weren't enough for a full invasion
The thermal camera resolution on that Russian UAV is quite poor in comparison to the TB2 Bayraktar. Wonder if the missile strike was being filmed by an Orlan-10 catapult-launched drone, instead of that same Orion drone.Finally we have some footage of Russian UCAV firing in anger:

I heard other analist say that it will be the Ukrainians that will clean up the neo fascist elements in their societies.Well don't forget that when the Peace finally comes, if any "Ukrainian" areas are taken under occupation, Russia will be able to call on the substantial manpower of Donbass Regions to act as garrison and not need to use its own forces.
I think this point has been kinda lost in all the excitement.
I have noticed the DNR and LNR troops are showing themselves to be really good at this, for example:Well don't forget that when the Peace finally comes, if any "Ukrainian" areas are taken under occupation, Russia will be able to call on the substantial manpower of Donbass Regions to act as garrison and not need to use its own forces.
