Feel the burn….

As of today, Ukraine sent more MBT to the US than the US to Ukraine.

Somehow the noose seems too kind.

And to think they went full Tonto on us when we had the CHQ leak, who isn’t on the USA top secret mailing list, the milkman?

I suspect that Prigozhin only wants the war to end so he can claim victory for his mercenary army and gain influence in Moscow,
the longer this war continues the more his army will be consumed, becoming irrelevant as will he.
He cares nothing for the misery he creates, only his own survival.

The only advances in Wagner’s major ground offensive appears to be in Russia where he recently raised a 2022-2023 monument at his latest cemetery / field.
Note, he appears to be planning ahead for more of the same dismal performance in Ukraine, as he has lots of room left to fill for the year ahead.


Trying to look kind hearted after beheading reports, odd no signs of a Ukraine flag on their uniforms, nor film of their arrival I have seen.

..

Saddam Hussein would have ascribed to that. Love, hugs and kisses, and a bullet to the head.

Gepards on show


showing Russia they are building up?

Worries in Russia as to where the Counter offensive will kick off.

Ukraine Blackhawk training.

Kinda thought they would have been heading the other way, i.e. away from Crimea!

Maybe the rumo(u)rs are going around Russia that Crimea may become a testing ground for unconventional weapons, as 'no more Mr nice man' Mr P has threatened.

If what we've been seeing so far represents the 'nice guy' Putin, I shudder to think what the alternative might be...

Nutty, is this a trick question? Fill in the blanks:

The people who take mines int a reactor hall are [war criminals/a Terrorist State/ Nuclear Terrorists/Ruzzians/amoral, nekulturny followers of a cult]
See? Easy. Ask a hard question, like, why is Russia, a criminal, terrorist state, permitted into the chambers of the UN without any objection. Now, that one, I have no answer for, but we will all have a cost to bear for the gutless quislings that reside in the UN building on the Hudson.

As one presumes most of the hierarchy. The fittest try to survive, but in what?, hopefully a heavily sanctioned and ostracised country all the while any remnants of the "top brass & leadership" remain. Back to the dark ages for them and i am afraid to say the general population who follow blindly..

Would that be more reason for leaving the Crimea instead of entering?, or perhaps they are planning for an extended summer holiday.

Surely out of, not into Crimea.
Perhaps idiocy has spread down from the head

if you think you are about to get drafted into the Russian army, maybe going to an area that might soon be recaptured by Ukraine makes more sense than you give credit. Who knows

Canada will hand over the confiscated Russian An-124 "Ruslan" aircraft to Ukraine as part of new Canadian sanctions against Russian enterprises. - Prime Minister of Ukraine.

Well that’s different, a T64 converted into an armoured personnel carrier.

More images of the troops one assumes are gathering. For the Counteroffensive.

I said this would happen. That Ukraine would start using its drones to strike vulnerable Russian electrical infrastructure in retaliation for Russia's strikes on Ukraine's power grid.

There is a fire at an electrical substation in Belgorod. Preliminary reports suggest it was a UAV attack.

The deed is done. All our Migs were transferred to Ukraine.


Slovakia is also manufacturing and delivering Zuzana-2 155mm howitzers but I am afraid this is about everything we can expect from my country in regard of weapon deliveries. Pro Ukraine government lost the vote of confidence in January, we have elections in September and per polls there is a high risk that pro Russian parties will win. 25 years of propaganda within hybrid war is taking its toll. :ouch:

Russia appears to be adapting the T90M armour protection...

More from Italy, up to 60 now.

Looks like cardboard to me.... just sayin'

The United States believes that Russia should pay for the restoration of Ukraine, and is discussing with its allies options for circumventing legal restrictions on the use of frozen Russian assets, American Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said in an interview with CNN.

High time this was done. Good luck in using Russ assets to finance defence against the war they started ... or maybe the leased airliners they have stolen ... or pay for upkeep of the millions of women and children they caused to flee their homeland.

Sensationalist nonsense, who would attack a civilian power station? Quite clearly, yet another instance of careless smokers.

Bradley in UKR camo.

Probably to stabilise the turret in flight. :E

Interview with Ukrainian soldiers about trench combat. In the footage, a Ukrainian soldier gets hit/grazed with a round to the head and gets back up to fight. He ended up being shot 3 times, but thankfully survived.

No Words..... :sad:

This puts the areas where there are the potential threat from ordnance in perspective.

The untold damage.

Bakhmut, detonating pre mined buildings after the Russians move in.


Ukrainian river patrol boat hit and beached.

Looks like the first SU35's have arrived in Iran as part of the deal for UAV's

NOT the place I would hide.

Swede's seeing off their latest batch of trainees departing home to Ukraine.
