Russian Ukrainian War (25 Viewers)

[WW2historian]

Russian servicemen showed a Ukrainian BATT UMG armored car abandoned in the Pokrovsk direction. The armored car is intact, it only needs to have its front wheel installed. Presumably, the car ran over a mine. The BATT UMG armored car is manufactured by the American company The Armored Group

It looks like these new Ukrainian conscriptions didn't receive training on how to change a tire. I wonder if they know how to hold a gun?

Footage of the destruction of a Ukrainian M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle by a Russian Molniya-2 UAV. The location of the shooting is not reported. M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles are produced in the USA. Judging by the video, the ammunition in the M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle presumably exploded.

On the night of June 21, the Russian army launched a missile and drone strike on a Ukrainian oil refinery in the city of Kremenchuk, in the Poltava region. The strike used Geranium drones and an unknown type of missile. As a result of the missile strikes, a large-scale fire broke out on the territory of the Ukrainian oil refinery. According to Ukrainian media, it is possible that the oil refinery in Kremenchuk will no longer be able to be restored.

Fuck Ukraine, they weren't the only ones who gave up their nukes. Belarus and Kazakhstan also gave up it's nukes. Plus Ukraine never owned these weapons, they were always in the control of Russia, but they were also paid money for the weapons, so again I say FUCK UKRAINE. Russia also gave Crimea to Ukraine, and Ukraine paid them back by fucking them over, so Russia said "fuck you, we're going to take back Crimea you ungrateful assholes."
"Moreover, Ukraine had no nuclear weapons program and would have struggled to replace nuclear weapons once their service life expired. Instead, by agreeing to give up the nuclear weapons, Ukraine received financial compensations and the security assurances of the Budapest Memorandum.

I didn't know that we had oil refineries preserved during the three years of war. We have oil refineries, but they are mini-sized. There are dozens of them and they are scattered around the country.
In addition, apparently fuel is made from grain. But it is not ethanol. It is fuel alcohol. It is added as an additive to gasoline or diesel fuel. It is not officially sold, but supplied to the army.

It is clear that you do not have a video of forced mobilization. Such cases happen and they are not uncommon but they are 5-6 cases per week, not per day.
They are very vivid with those who evaded confirmation of data and are now caught.
There are excesses. Recently, the TCC took away a driver who had a son with an acute form of cerebral palsy in the back seat. He did not need confirmation, but he did not have a document from the TCC, so the perpetrators took him away without sorting things out. The public intervened and let him go.
We closely monitor abuse of power, so I asked where such information came from?

All from last 12 hours and only from "Hot" section, so doesn't include all possible posted videos. I see 5-6 such videos daily. And these are only the recorded ones. Who knows how many are not recorded.

By the way, this is also about armored vehicles. Have you seen many videos where Ukrainian troops massively use motorcycles and cars? Indeed, Ukrainian assault companies on motorcycles are now being created, but mainly all this is used for logistics.
Armor definitely saves lives, some units of military equipment can withstand up to 10 hits. Civilian equipment for a military man is a definite suicide bomber.
I already told you that the goal is to destroy the enemy's military power.

Though there is no doubt Russian losses of armour would have been large. I don't think that is the prime reason for using motorcycles. I don't remember using cars for assaut though, ATVs? Yes. Armour use has declined everywhere on the front for assault as far as recent videos show. I think more likely reason for that is motorcyles & ATVs offer protection from drones, which is mainly the Russian troops face during assault.
Troops on motorcycle & ATVs are dispersed, hence more drones are needed to attack them all. Soldiers riding them can also maneuver easily to dodge drones. Also they are lightweight, hence offer more protection from mines. I have seen videos of Ukrainias adopting them too in recent attacks.

Also despite that, Russian attacks have accelerated recently, so have their capture of territory.

Our army does not cling to positions if there is no point in holding them. The Russian army is the opposite. Territory is an ideological underpinning. That is why they sacrifice everything they can. And they attack even on bathtubs. There is a reason for this - to bring more and unload easier, but it looks ridiculous.

C'mon man, that is ridiculous. Whole of the war, it is Ukraine which has been fixated with territory, refusing to withdraw before the situation turns critical while Russians have withdrawn, rather than taking massive losses. Russians withdrew from Kharkiv & Kherson when their logistics was challenged and they were outnumbered. OTOH, Ukrainans fought till near encirclement in Bakhmut, Sudhza (Kursk), Avdiivka, Velya Novosilka etc etc. There are more examples.

For example: Now in the Tyotkino-town area (Kursk region) an entire Russian regiment is half-encircled, but there is no order to retreat and the regiment is destroyed. In such a situation, Ukrainian troops often retreat to reserve positions.
Therefore, I am surprised when they say that time is against us. The Chinese asked not to attack Red Square on May 9. A year ago, one could only dream of such an opportunity.

Ukrainians have claimed encirclement in Tetkino. However, there has been no update on this front for some days. Lets see. Anyways I think attacking Russian territory is useless for Ukraine. They should focus on attriting Russians in Ukraine itself, where their logistics is strong and they have air cover and fortified defences.

Rest, we will see what happens and who prevails in the long term. I don't dislike Ukraine or Russia, just thought that current Ukrainian strategy seem to have no end goal in mind.

An interesting video, especially if you play with geolocation. Other places, other license plates, other dates. Sometimes the filming is staged even in Russia. In any war there is an information component. Recently, Russia handed over more than 6,000 bodies and 20 have not confirmed their identification. Each Ukrainian soldier has a DNA sample. The identification will take six months but foreign media have already made a fuss that there are many more dead Ukrainians than Russians.
Moreover, this fuss depends on sympathy.
There is no neutral view in war. There is only "black and white". As an example - the recent conflict between Pakistan and India. I am certainly not hot or cold about it. As a country, I like India more but in that situation, I sympathized more with the Pakistani army. Subconsciously, only because they are weaker or because of pro-Russian users of DFI. Fortunately, the leaders of both countries found wisdom not to aggravate the conflict. So when they tell me about a "neutral view", I don't believe it.
You and I often see different things. You don't see "assault Lada", I don't see mass mobilization via a minibus.
You can't carry much on a motorcycle. Only a soldier with a personal weapon and + a box of ammunition. That's why they use something bigger.
Regarding armored vehicles, especially tanks:
The FPV is like a sniper rifle - an individual target. Even drone bombers won't create the necessary density of fire. That's why automatic guns and tank guns are needed.
So if the Russians are only storming with "meat", it's not because they're afraid of losing a few tanks. They simply aren't there in this area of the offensive.
There's no point in peeing boiling water over the news that they've captured another village.
Have you ever seen large columns of Ukrainian prisoners? This is on the topic of territories.
I repeat - ours are holding the line as long as they can, so the Russians are left with only ruins.
Here are many mining towns in Donbass, the Russians got almost undestroyed, because there was no way to defend them. Compare the town of Ukrainsk and Vugledarr.

You mentioned Kherson. It was a political, but not a military decision. Our troops locked 30 thousand Russians there. Then information ran through the corridors of the White House that Putler was ready to use tactical nuclear weapons and Biden slowed down the supply of weapons, which allowed the Russians to retreat to the left bank.
A similar reason was during the counteroffensive. The promised supplies took too long to arrive - this allowed the Russians to strengthen their positions.

Footage of a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strike on a Ukrainian army training ground. The video was filmed near the village of Davydiv Brod on the border of the Kherson and Mykolaiv regions. At the time of the missile strike, scientific classes were taking place at the training ground. It is worth noting that many Iskander-M missiles have been used recently, and according to some media outlets, Russia has begun making simplified versions of the missiles. The video clearly shows how the cluster bomblets are distributed over the area during an explosion. About 70 soldiers were killed and 10 vehicles were damaged as a result of the missile strike. Ukrainian media confirmed the deaths of servicemen.

"the White House that Putler was ready to use tactical nuclear weapons and Biden slowed down the supply of weapons, which allowed the Russians to retreat to the left bank."

There were some pro Ukrainian sources that said Russia was laying a trap, so that's why Ukraine didn't attack the retreating Russian army. I do remember that Russia's retreat was done extremely efficiently and fast. You also claimed Russia struck some kind of deal with Zelensky to allow them to escape. Who knows what the truth is. I'm inclined to believe the obvious, which is the retreat plan was in place for months. The Russia commander even said they were prepared to retreat months before they did.

This has to be one of the worst media platforms. Total garbage.

Ukrainian sources indulge in Pakistani levels of propaganda. Russians have demonstrated notable instances of incompetence and dependence on outdated doctrines but these clowns utter pure nonsense to appease their readers and higher ups
