Very NSFL encounter of a Russian Anchovies Full Can BTR with the Mighty Opener Grinder Bradley and his 25mm 'openers' (and a few flying friendos)

Amazing footage coming from Avdiivka.

Very HQ sunny and stable footage.

No cut, no edits. Continuous footage.

They really CRIED HAVOK and let slip the dogs of war on them.

This is the true definition of DEFENSELESS, what Russia will encounter if they pick a fight with us. I mean, this could only have been more degrading to them if, after all was said and done, the Ukrainians flown a spit bucket at their burning carcasses and airdropped it on them like 'Ptoo you're NOTHING'

AND ANOTHER ONE Bradley grinding Russians. They're really pumping those numbers up, them no rookies.

In other news, another Su-34 and Su-35 farted.

At this rate, by the time the f16s arrive at Ukraine, there won't be any Russian airplanes left to shoot down.

He certainly doesn’t hide it anymore.

 

[Liljagare]

Russians continue murdering whole families by targeting residential buildings with Iranian drones in cities all over Ukraine.
Killed while sleeping in their beds, these people would be alive today if Ukraine were finally granted the air defenses and weapons we've been asking for.

 

[Nonehxc]

Add another Su-34.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Then feel happy again when remembering it's a soldier from a regime engaging in civilian killing, rape, child abduction and pow execution.

Can't argue with that and I actually forgot about the raping, pow executiions and other atrocities commited by the Russian military.

 

[Lord Panda]

He certainly doesn’t hide it anymore.

Hasn't that question been fucking answered repeatedly over the past couple of years?

 

[LimanimaPT]

I would understand if he said:
"I always wondered why NATO continues to exist if it doesn't do shit".

 

[winjer]

The thing is, the Warsaw Pact might have ended, but Russian still continues.
Ukraine is not the only country that has been attacked by Russia. Ukraine is not the exception.
Consider how many times Putin referenced Poland during the Tucker Carlson interview.

 

[hlm666]

I've always wondered why this south african putin cuck didn't go to russia to start his tech startups instead of doing it illegally in usa on a student visa. Has the fuckhead made a statement about his russian support with starlink hardware? Has anyone asked him and got an answer on why he thinks ukraine should surrender to save lives instead of russia going fucking home?

Shut your trap musk, go back to making the worlds most expensive fireworks and toy cars that fail in the cold.

How does one deal with Putin because surely it won't stop at Ukraine and he's continously threatening nuclear warfare if he's attacked by the West.

The sactions seem to be doing much of fuck all since the Russian GDP grew by a few percent over the last few years (according to reports). So how exactly do we get rid of Putin?

 

[Panajev2001a]

No sorry, nobody gives a shit. Too busy organising marches against Jews, I mean marches against Jewish zionists, I mean against Israel, I mean against Israel’s war efforts.

We all know the answer to that. Is to support Ukraine. Properly.
The west has done the bare minimum. But too often equipment was delayed.
And right now, the US aid package is stuck in congress because of a handful of Republican traitors.

The myth that GDP grows so everything must be great. That is very incorrect.
The reality is that when countries mobilize for war, their GDP grows as weapon production ramps up.
It happens almost every time. Even with Germany and the UK as they were mobilizing for WW2. And the USA, and the USSR.
This is also the myth that Hitler fixed Germany's economy, because GDP was growing well.
The problem is that the state is emitting debt bounds to fund the war. Increasing taxes. Diverting money from things the country needs, into war.
Workers stop making goods and services needed for the people, instead making goods for the war effort.
But a making a truck is something that benefits a country for a few decades, as it is used to develop the country. But making a tank brings no benefit to the country, especially if it's destroyed a few months later.

And yes, the sanctions are doing a lot, though it's true their impact could be even greater.
Russia is now paying a lot more to import western products, as they have to go into the black market.
And Russians exports of oil have to be made at a discount, because the few countries that are still buying, know that Russia has no other options.
Russia is close to exhausting their foreign currency reserves, meaning they are having trouble propping up the Ruble like they used to.
But more could be done. Western companies are still selling products indirectly to Russia, the cost is higher for Russia. But if the west really wanted, they could make it much harder for these companies to go around sanctions.
And the Russian money that was frozen in international banks, should have been given to Ukraine already, as compensation.

 

[MisterFalcon]

The Perun video linked earlier goes into some depth on how the Russian economy keeps giong by kicking the can down the road and digging into the reserves. Each month they keep going makes the eventual crash a little worse.
Also mentioned is an interesting consequence of the massive increase in defense spending, the Army and defense industry having to bid in wages against each other for manpower. Wage increases are quite substatial, creating a lot of suddenly middle class households who, once the war ends either way, will have to deal with wages going back to pre-war levels while prices are still at the levels driven up by all that money flowing into the economy. Even winning the war totally in the next few months due to some collapse in the Ukrainian defense will not get them out of that although taking Ukraine and stealing everything not bolted down would help ease the pain.

Ukrainian Forces Strike russian Troops at Avdiivka Coke Plant Using AASM Hammer Guided Bombs.

If the Kremlin’s intentions weren’t already clear enough, here is former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev saying today that the concept of an independent Ukrainian identity must "disappear for good"

Wearing a Kim Jong-Un-style tunic, Dmitry Medvedev says "Ukraine is definitely Russia" and shows off a map of what he thinks should be left of Ukraine. Spoiler: not much!
"Our geostrategic space has been indivisible since the time of the ancient Russian state," he says.

As I keep saying: this clown makes an important contribution to our understanding of just what today's Russia stands for. We should take his lessons to heart and act accordingly.

Incitement to war crimes, genocide and elimination of Ukraine on Russian TV.

[Wildebeest]

He's also patently false. The WP was created as a cheap forgery of NATO. NATO was founded in 1949, WP in 1955.

I believe Warzone reported about this. And probably not all of them active.

They will have to build new ones.

Drone footage, the last one doing an internal bulkhead inspection is especially brutal.

It never stops being funny how Russia is losing so many ships to a country without a navy.

DA-YUM

And that's Ukraine in their backyard, in the Sea they share, with rushed jet ski kabooms out of necessity.

Imagine when we're fed up with them in the Mediterranean, a Sea they don't have any right to navigate with their Navy since they don't have a speck of sand being bathed by it, international waters be damned...and the might of ALL the historical old and new seafaring Empires comes down on them.

I was literally born in the Mediterranean, like the song says...and goddamnit, I want to see the Shipbreakers do what Shipbreakers do.

BREAK.

RUSSIAN SHIPS.

IN FUCKING PIECES.

Holy shit! That was a big boom.
Either that drone had a huge pay load, or they hit some ammo storage inside the IFV.

"First confirmed loss of the M142 'HIMARS' in Ukraine. The first systems arrived in June 2022 and since then we've seen evidence of damage to 2 and now the destruction of 1. So far, the US have provided 39 systems to Ukraine."

Was bound to happen, Ukraine have been amazing at hiding/protecting them.

[Nonehxc]

There are reports that Russia came this close to splattering both Zelenskyi and the Greek PM Kiriákos Mitsotákis in Odessa...like 200m close.

I think someone(s) is gonna be sent either to the Gulag or sent a load of lead, because they almost killed a NATO Head of State.

Or maybe it was done with full knowledge and support and we can stop warming and start dancing the Ol' Bones Song of conquest and annihilation.

Interesting that in the videos so far, orc vessels seem to have fuck all capabilities of illuminating the surrounding waters, and that they're trying to gun down these incoming swarms with small arms fire. I think in one of the earlier sinking videos, there were explosive charges being deployed too against these drones with limited success. Furthermore, their ECM seems ineffective as well.

Maybe the Russians should start welding mesh cages around their vessels, like they've done with their ground vehicles

I think the Ukrainians should take a leaf out of combined arms doctrine with these things, and have the a few of their sea drones also carry some FPV airborne drones and launch them when they're close to the target. Orcs are going to find it challenging shooting at incoming water drones, while dodging air drones at the same time.

Yes please, if only to make them lose time and sanity.

They're called Sea Babies in jest, because they have pretty sizable hundreds of kg warheads. There's no fence in this world that can protect you from a Tonne Warhead Retribution.

Jesus fucking Christ at those casualty numbers... Obvs to be taken with a pinch of salt, but man 422310, even taking a low ball estimate of say 300,000 dead/wounded/MIA, those are just mindboggling high numbers, we're talking old skool war numbers, how is that sustainable, how can a country as blatantly evil and fucked up as Russia is continue with those sort of casualties.

The sheer toll on the civilian population not to mention the healthcare system (as awful as it no doubt is in Russia) will never recover from this and yet they still plow on, throwing body after body at this goal of what? Grab some more oblasts for the motherland.. fucking Russians man, they are an alien species to me at the moment (bar those brave bastards that came out for Nalvanys funeral) but the rest, they have to have some idea of how this is going and those in power with more than two braincells have got to see the writing on the wall, this is beyond unsustainable..

NATO in (led by the French of all people), job done by Summer

 

[winjer]

Now remember that one of the reasons that led to the fall of the USSR, was the Russian invasion of Afghanistan.
And that had 70.000 Russian soldiers dead. Discontent among the soldiers and common people in Russia was enough to make Russia pull out.
But today, Russians are so passive and tame, they barely protest. Even when casualties are much higher.
