Russia - threadbanned users in OP

Yeah he doesn't like the he did 12 months ago,he's really aged

National security ,

If that's the case every eu state including us should start mass deportations of Russians Citing national security reasons

Ireland has some strange people who think the west and NATO is out get them, like Moscow Mick and the witch Daly.

Spout pro Russian garbage from the comfort of their home in the West.

Wonder why they would never dream of stepping foot in Russia though?

That looks like the drone/aircraft I posted yesterday spotted over Moscow

15 dead including 2 children from last night's cowardly attack on Uman ....

I see the intel leak being used for figures, despite some presumptions on the figures (Ukraine deaths being linear, based on the September figures Ukraine actually released of their KIA)

Anyway, interesting article when people talk about casualty figures. ~115k Ukrainian soldiers injured but how many can return to service?

I can't imagine the Russian % would be that high.

I saw a tweet earlier today, saying that big number of russian deaths are from non-life threatening wounds/injuries. They didn't receive a proper medical treatment and the ones who did receive it, cannot go back to the war due to injuries, amputations etc

I'll see if I can find it

I am not even debating the point that Ukraine have been wronged.

The reality I am suggesting is that Ukraine don't have enough shells for artillery, or rockets for tubes.

Let's see how the next few months go. I hope I am wrong and Ukraine can make decent inroads into occupied territory.

As Reuters article points out, Kharkiv had little fortifications at all, and a very small grouping of Russians were stupidly tasked with holding the entire very large area.

They were lucky that their under staffing of that front wasnt noticed sooner.

And Kherson as pointed out umpteen times was a failure of Russian supply lines due to the fact they had only 2 bridges they could use, and were repeatedly being hit. The land offensive to north and east of Kherson didnt achieve much for an entire summer of fighting in the non-muddy season.

Hopefully this summer is not as much of a stalemate for Ukraine as Kherson was at the line of conflict.

Do the Russian casualties include only those of the official armed forces of the Russian Federation? Or do they also incluse the militias of the DPR and LPR, the so-called "peoples' republics" which have recentyl been "officially" incorporated into the RF? Do they incluse groups like the Wagner Group? Both of these categories have apparentyl had very large casualty rates, so their inclusion would make a big difference.

Also when it comes to numbers killed, do the Russian numbers include missing in action (i.e. no death benefits payable to family) or even the severly wounded left to die by the wonderfully caring Russian Army?

The WSJ published a BS article about Ukraine planning mass attacks on Moscow on the anniversary of the invasion. US media should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Those estimates - are they compiled by the same lot who assured the world of WMDs in Iraq? I'll take Danilov's assurances of Ukrainian losses over any US 'estimate'. Just look at the 10 changes of story over the non delivery of Abrams tanks. The US are not to be trusted unreservedly, IMO.

But then again who's to say that they weren't,

Everything you don't like is all propaganda, every story is bs unless you share it ,

Blinkered opinions don't help anyone

Blinkered opinions? - That's rich coming from someone who stated they are right and Admiral John Kirby is wrong, when it comes to training requirements to operate switch blade drones.

Not to mention your repeated denials that the A50 AWACS had been attacked and damaged, despite several media outlets posting the story.

John Wick, or maybe the Mission Impossible team....there was a story on here a few pages back, i don't know if you have seen it, but here goes. Putin ( the real one) had a bad accident, and his leg had to be amputated, it was unavoidable. All of Russia was in a state of shock, and none more that Putin's look alikes......
