More groveling, the man knows no limits.

If they were smart enough to build it clearly inside Polish territory as I earlier questioned, they could do both now. If this is a current photo, I am very surprised that there are still migrants attempting illegal ( anybody so inclined, don't bother writing that people aren't "illegal , it's just time-wasting ) crossings: I wouuld have thought that Lukaschenko would have tossed them all out of the country when his earlier "immigrant-wave " tactics failed.

Inside Ukraine's 47th brigade where western-trained young men fight to prove their patriotism

Soldiers, mostly in their 20s, have joined an elite force to try and shatter Russia's front lines


Many of Colonel Oleksandr Sak’s 47th mechanised brigade are too young to know rule from Moscow, having been born after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

But the 28 year old and his youthful Western-trained troops are clear there can be no return to such a fate, either for themselves, or the generations of Ukrainians yet to come.

I really really hope to hell that these young guys prevail.

Interesting to see, Ukrainian propaganda shells, they remind me of parking tickets lol.

​​​​​​​

Tokmak is getting hit by HIMARS, it sounds like secondary explosions.

​​​​​​​

An update as to who is where in the advances and how it is going. GOOD READ and i whole heartily agree with

​​​​​​​

An interesting observation on Ukrainian artillery.

​​​​​​​

AFU reached the first line of Dragons teeth but fell into an anti tank ditch, unmanned and checking for mines and defence.

New Krapoyrovite video released showing them in ermmmmm Combat, or should I say standing up either side of a trench doing a lot of shouting and pretending to be Custers Last Stand, all be it poorly and firing both directors lol.

Have they actually took part in anything bar running away a couple of weeks ago?

Solovyadayada has neither comprehension of the concept of "irony" "ирония" nor the intellectual curiosity to review the history of the Russian Federation in respect to the countless treaties and charters that Russia has breached. To keep it to a bucket list length he only has to look at those since the dissolution of the USSR.

Calling Ukraine's defence criminal is called "Projection", "Проекция" sparky. Seems to be a common tactic of dirt-eaters around the rock.

If Russia doesn't' like the consequences of their criminal invasion and breach of treaties and agreements that they freely signed and have deliberately, with malice and intent, with mens rea, breaching international norms and even breaching Russian law, breaching the Geneva convention... then don't like it when sand is kicked back in your vodka soaked persona, then, easy, "go Home". Moscow for Russians, sounds reasonable. "Некультурные варвары, идите домой и пейте водку и хамите в собственной помойке."


"Russia, where irony goes to die..."

France, the entire management of the Ommic company, which supplied Russia with microchips for the russian army, was arrested.

​​​​​​​French authorities have arrested the French and Chinese executives of the Ommic company for transferring secret military technologies to China and Russia..

⚡️In 🇷🇺Yakutsk, the world's largest Russian Mi-26 transport helicopter of border guards came too close to a lighting mast with a natural result on video.…

​​​​​​​

Talk about blindly following the marshaller........

Things are chaotic but there are multiple reports of the Ukrainian forces have forced a breach through the Russian minefields lines east of Tokmak (at a heavy lose in Bradley’s and tanks) and Russian forces in retreat with no available reserves. Ukraine now in HIMARS range of Mariupol and the coast.

UA forces seems to advanced eastwards several km the last few days in the area of Robotyne. They seem to have reached what appears to be the first prepared anti tank trenches / pyramid barriers.

And just like that.... the coast is in range of himars...

Kill on KA-52 yesterday reported to have been made using Starstreak.

https://metro.co.uk/2023/07/27/momen...00120/?ITO=msn

This is the moment Ukrainian forces destroyed a Russian helicopter using a missile donated by Britain.

Footage shared on social media showed the targeted hit on the Ka-52 ‘Alligator’ before it plummeted to the ground in the occupied Donetsk region in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

Top Russian air force colonel Vitaly Tabachnikov is reported to have been in the aircraft when it was hit.

The commander of the 112th Separate Helicopter Regiment is thought to have died alongside his co-pilot captain Roman Gavrikov.

Ukraine’s 38th Marine Brigade boasted about the success of their operation on Facebook.

The video showed the exact moment the short-range Starstreak missile hit the helicopter...

Reference the Mi-26 crash - hitting poles seems to be contagious….

Not often that an accident raises a smile. Gotta say, the rotor lasted longer than expected after it started to trim the scenery. At least the tower got its own back on the hub too. A lot of troops and flight crew would be happy if the whole fleet of choppers accidentally went pole dancing, probably the Col in his 'gator would have liked that opportunity to redo over getting smoked by a Starstreak today.

This happened in March, only publicised yesterday. The four arrested were initially imprisoned, but are now free under judicial control. The company has been sold to the American semi-conductor manufacturer, Macom.

Are they going to blame the Poles? A NATO state? Pretty sure that the Poles that seem to have an affinity for Russian copters would consider that unjust, which raises the probability that some vodka filled RT propagandista like solovyadayada will demand Russia recover their honour by invading the Poles.As there are lots of poles in Moscow, that would be a good place to lay blame. Solobo-etc can also blame the fault in their stars for the starstreaking of the boss of the 'gator squadron. Seems like a better show of arms than say Dubai or Singapore military trade shows...

The link is dead but I would check that again, Russia has been pumping out a lot of images of these losses that are actually the losses incured at the start of the offensive a couple of weeks ago.
