A “bang” indeed. 😂
Russia’s long cold winter continues.
Burn, baby, burn
The 3rd Assault Brigade is engaged in Avdiivka. But a pullback has started from other positions in Avdiivka, most notably the Zenit Air Base, which has been described as a fortress.
This is a Russian video of a soldier touring a battlefield northeast of Avdiivka. He describes a hellscape of destruction and strewn corpses.
WARNING: The video shows dead bodies.
Translation from @Gerashchenko_en
“I didn’t expect this, they have the Pentagon here. The crests are systematically suppressing us: out of 4,000 people, only 30% of the brigade remains. Just count, there are only corpses - they’re all ours.”
“Here are our destroyed tanks. Here is a corpse - half a body, the red bandage is ours. There's still a burnt corpse lying there. Our equipment is still broken” - a Russian assesses the situation of the occupiers near Avdeevka
“Here are corpses, here are more corpses. Our corpses. This is our red one, already all black, bitch"
“Out of 4000 people, only 30% of the brigade remains. So count it. Here are the corpses alone. These are all ours. They’ve been lying there for a long time, apparently.”
“They say Mishka went to watch the war. I looked... I didn't expect this. Avdeevskoe direction. They have the Pentagon here, it goes 5 floors down, bitch.”
“They also collected corpses here. The boys are collecting corpses. Everything was covered. There in front, in general, they say, there are tons of corpses. There are special forces tumblers there too. Crushed them specifically"
“We haven’t eaten or drunk for several days. Not so much with food, but with water. Food is okay, but you always want to drink.”
Russia is now reported to be planning an offensive near Robotyne, where Ukraine had launched its summer counter-offensive.
That’s one hell of a crater.
Another one of those souped-up Chinese golf carts get blown to bits.
A Russian army colonel brags about how he threatened to destroy the city of Kupyansk. We’ll look forward to the day he is fertilizing a Ukrainian field.
This video will make for good evidence at this asshole’s trial.
Belgorod was hit again. Previous attacks have inflicted damage from Ukrainian drones/missiles that were shot down or by errant Russian missiles. The cause of this attack is not known.
This guy, who kind of looks like the old Shah of Iran, was supposedly killed back in September. He must have been hanging out with Gerasimov.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
Uh oh. Putin throws Trump under the bus.
The ketchup’s gonna be flying at Mar-A-Lago.
Putin is no doubt trolling Trump, perhaps reminding him who controls the puppet strings.
Some good news. The Ground Launched Small Diameter Bombs (GLSDB) have arrived.
More good news.
Despite Russia throwing a lot of resources at Krynky, despite the inherent problems for Ukraine to resupply its troops there, Russia has been unable to retake it.
Years ago I lived in Mississippi and worked at a bar. I learned that we were not allowed to serve alcohol on Election Day during the day. It seems that it had once been a tradition to buy votes with drinks so a law had to be passed.
Some traditions never die.
I seriously doubt he has any desire to indulge her request.
Rest in peace.
The funeral for German doctor Diana Wagner, who was killed in action in Ukraine.
Love flourishes even in wartime.
Time for everything on two legs and four legs to get the hell out of Avdiivka.
Can’t leave your buddy behind.
