Balakleya
On September 10, Kyiv’s forces continued their large-scale attack on Russian positions in eastern Ukraine.
The most intense fighting is ongoing in the sector of Izum and Liman (south of Kharkiv Region and the north of Donbass) after the retreat of Russian units from Balakleya (with surrounding villages) and parts of Kupyansk (Russian troops retreated towards Oskol River). As of now, Russian forces retreated from 2/3 parts of Kupyansk. Reports indicate that most of the town may fall into the hands of the advancing pro-Kyiv troops in the nearest future. It should be noted that Oskol River in this area cannot be considered as a ‘large water barrier’ and could be easily crossed by the advancing units if they face no fierce resistance.
At the same time, Russian troops are reportedly retreating from the key towns of Izum and Liman. If these reports are confirmed, the Russian military likely opted to not carry out positional defense in these areas. Russian forces are retreating in the face of the threat of encirclement and amid the tactical operational crisis in the area.
The advance of Kyiv’s troops are accompanied by large-scale campaign of terror aimed against local population. Reports from Balakleya and nearby settlements show multiple cases of war crimes and oppression campaign against civilians that remained there. Kupyansk and all other areas left by the Russian military will not likely avoid this fate.
The current efforts of the Russian military are focused on preventing the further deepening of the existing crisis, the scale of which is limited by multiple cases of heroic deeds of Russian servicemen.
Summing up developments of the last days, Kyiv’s forces already achieved a victory on operational scale and captured the strategic initiative in the conflict amid the indecisive posture and ‘acts of free will’ of the Russian leadership. Moreover, their advance continues and the Russian military has not stabilized the frontline so far.
The rapid retreat of units of the Russian Armed Forces in the Izum sector demonstrated a deep systemic crisis of the Russian military-political command. The silence of the military-political leadership of Russia in the face of the deep crisis in the East of Ukraine may lead to the loss of confidence in the leadership among at least a part of the citizens.
If the Kremlin does not take important and radical measures to reform the existing command system and purge dangerous disrupters within it, then a military defeat (at least in some scale) of Russia will become a likely outcome of the military campaign in the East of Ukraine.
Currently, the Russian Armed Forces in the southern part of Kharkiv Region and in the north of Donbass is balancing on the edge of defeat, which is prevented by unprecedented heroism of Russian military personnel.
Atom-Bomb on Kiev. Go! Do it an win this war. There are little Atom-Bombs
Hopefully not. The war seems to be completely lost for Russia. NATO-Russia 1-0
Couldn’t agree more, do it now Putin !
atom bomb on your head
why bother, its easier to let the ukrops shmuck themselves up against the wall for a while. wastes money, wastes shells and allows them to walk into dumb traps as SOP for ukrops. Winter is coming LOLOLOLOLOL Herr Zellman must be desperate for some new cash he is willing to waste what little he had left for shenanigans like this.
It’s not their money or shells, they don’t care. Obviously, they don’t care about their soldiers’ lives either………Every Russian in the Ukraine is going to want to move to Russia, cuz Ukrainian vengeance is going to be swift and bloody on the breakaway republics.
This Russian campaign is now going so badly in the Kharkov region that maybe you’re actually right? Is Putin giving up on Ukraine? Maybe he has changed his mind about this special military operation and instead would like to see Donetsk/Luhansk population just to move to Russia instead? Russian population is only 146 million and there’s easily room for them. Except for Crimea which will of course never return to Ukraine. Anyway, many are leaving just now as I write. Fresh from Intel Slava Z (Pro-Russian Telegram channel) :
“🇷🇺 At the checkpoint in the village of Logachevka, Belgorod region (in Russia) where large queues of civilian vehicles with refugees from Ukraine have accumulated, mobile food stations have already been deployed and food and water delivery to the Kharkiv side has been organized, reports the governor of the Belgorod region Gladkov.
“Heating points have also been organized, they are laid out along the entire line. If necessary, they are ready to provide medical assistance, a team of doctors is on duty at the border. We are ready to deliver everyone to the temporary accommodation center for citizens. We will try to provide everything necessary for those who need it. I will also look at the Shebekino checkpoint myself,” Gladkov said.”
He might push the button and launch tactical nukes, its the only chance for a Russian victory of some sorts, but will transform Russia in a pariah state for generations to come. It will be something that will never be forgotten nor forgiven.
There will be no West in the generations to come.
Small price to pay if the exercise in the far east went well.
Breaking, from Azmilitary11: “Reports incoming that AFU is gathering a huge force in the proximity of Ugledar”, Ukraine attack on Mariupol oncoming!
Russian army general staff is panicking!
He, he, he. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg20JzAurkg. Zelensky ´s last breathe. Offensive on Kherson stopped completely. His last reserves thrown on Kharkov front epected by a and shelled on the steppe.
Another medal of Pamfil Military Academy is going today to….YOU. Those imbeciles generals at the request of the asshole and traitor called Putin used there 1 armored battallion to show some stupid fuck idiotic exercises to …..nobody. Putin must be jailed and charged with high treason !
Never try top mess with what you fukn well don’t know,easy beat cia/trollop hag!
Friend take a coffee you will see russia will winn ,Germany is already capitulated just be patient
Russian people would be better off once Putin gone. LGBTQIA’s love young men parades, and so does Putin! Coincidence? Yes, military in Ukraine undermanned and taking big casualties and Putin holds back mans to watch in Parade and put in useless exercise when he have real life in Ukraine for soldiers.
I have no doubts russians would laugh the last ! And all imbeciles like you will bite the dust like the previous nazi hitlerist trash.
Another medal from the Pampers Filled Academy is going to You because everyone is a winner here. Now finish you cookie and take a nap you’re too cranky
Hope you’re mother didn’t trashed the earth by filling it with more imbecile nazi cocksuckers homo besides the actual pedophile chimp.
Is this the level the russians have sunk down to
In your dreams cia/ queer flogs,with your subliminal sodomity gots nowhere in life,truth be known.
Dejan Beric: “Russian army leaves Volchansk in Kharkiv region – district administration” The redeployment of Kharkov’s forces in the Donbass is a lie. The truth? An agreement has been reached with the United States. Russia will withdraw from Ukraine and the sanctions will be lifted.
That’s the most brutal lie I’ve ever heard! Dejan Beric is a Serbian champion proudly fighting on the Russian side since 2014. You can only here the most patriotic messages from him!
No agreement was reached. Russian military was routed and the sanctions will intensify.
From the information I have obtained Russian troops beat a TACTICAL retreat -not one Russian lost — its now being admitted that the very low number of Russian troops in Ukraine is nowhere near enough to conquer a large country .
As a result Russia is sending a large number of reinforcements .
Exactly. Russians simply don’t have enough troops for this major war. Everyone can see this. Mobilization is necessary yet Putin stubbornly refuse it.
From February to September, they tried to solve this issue by strengthening recruitment for contract service, mobilization in the DPR and LPR, recruitment into PMCs, the formation of BARS, the 3rd Corps, etc. However, six months later, the problem still exists and has the most serious impact on the course of operations. They are trying to “relocate” large contingents of troops by curtailing entire axes, moving them from Kherson to Kharkov, which is a desperate measure not a real solution. It will only weaken Kherson front as well.
The DECISION to go to war was the biggest strategic mistake in the world since WW2! It was bloody obvious back in February and now more than ever.
Perhaps Russia should have intervened back in 2013. to stop Maidan with Yanukovich still in power, or in 2014/5 when Ukr.army was in disarray. Or even in 2020. with Trump in Washington and the west obsessed with Covid. But in 2022?
There was no real casus belli, no defined and clear objective, no element of surprise (NATO knew all plans 2 months before it started!). Since the Day One it was grotesquely grandiose in ambition for minuscule resources allocated. Badly planned, poorly executed, based on false intelligence and ridiculous assumption that Ukros will surrender en masse and greet Russians as liberators? Seriously?! SO called Ukrainian nation exists to be against Russia, that is their sole purpose. They are thoroughly indoctrinated to hate Russians, especially since 2014. They are not bad fighter either, they are Eastern Slavs after all, basically Russians…. Yet Russian HQ terribly underestimated them. Russian “Blitz” was flawed since the beginning with so many tactical errors, poor leadership and bad training fully exposed. For example the key city of Kharkov should have been taken in 24 hours, yet the failed completely to even encircle it. It was only lightly defended with most AFU in Donbass or near Kiev. Instead Russians did nothing except sending 2-3 lone recon Tigers directly into city center/ Ukr. ambush. How ridiculous that was? I could go on for hours, there are countless examples. Yet I did hope Russia will eventually learn on their mistakes, bounce back and win this war eventually. I do not hope any more, not after this catastrophe. They can’t even defend their positions properly, taking Slavyansk, Nikolaev… Odessa??? Impossible.
Putin risked/gambled everything, his reputation, his legacy, the very existence of Russia on this stupid intervention. Read history, wars are ALWAYS risky. So many great rulers ruined their legacy with overconfident wars. This one was insanely risky even before it started, we all expected harsh USANATO reaction: they hoped for this scenario, Maidan = Bear Trap. But not even they expected this incompetence from Russian army, partially shackled with Kremlins political decision to keep this war as some low intensity conflict, which is impossible.
Now Russia is isolated and demonized like never before (1853 or 1919. perhaps?), now even on the brink of military defeat! Russian economy still endures, but not for long, it depends on gas/oil high prices and Chinese good will.
There is one constant thing about Russia throughout history: it cannot allow itself to be perceived weak. Now it is exposed as incredibly weak. Dreams come true of all anti-russian haters, all its enemies and vultures within and abroad encouraged to strike. Even poodles like Poland, Lithuania etc barking at this toothless old bear. Russian people can endure many things, but not a bad war. I simply don’t see how Russia can win this war now. And now they are fighting for their very survival. And instead of actually admitting this is the fight for very existence, Russian MoD makes laughable excuses how they “relocated” units purposely?!
Azmilitary11: “The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue their attempt to develop breakthrough in the LPR. At the moment, Ukrainian advance groups are already on the outskirts of the LPR”
LPR is threatened. Evacuations are underway in Pokrovke, Svatove, Rubizhne (!)
I do not doubt that this will happen now. Ukraine will capture Donestk and Lugansk. The Russians are being ROUTED. Putin should be removed from office for treason. NATO expanded east by adding two new members, Finland and Sweden. NATO expanding as a result of Putin’s SMO is embarrassing to Putin. The Russian leader’s goal of demilitarizing Ukraine backfired spectacularly as the West provided more and more weapons. Ukraine has more advanced and deadlier weapons. Donbas is not fully under Russian control after 6 full months of the failed SMO in Ukraine. President Putin’s decision to launch the SMO is harming Russia’s security and citizens.
I’ll repeat my comment, it was deleted for no sane reason.
I’ve keep saying this since day one: Kremlin is fighting this war with one hand tied behind its back, ignoring wake up calls again and again. This cannot be ignored now. You can’t fight the biggest war in Europe since WW2 without (partial) mobilization.
Truth be told, this is a well planned and perfectly executed operation: Ukros diverted attention to Kherson and even Zaporozhie, then overwhelmed badly prepared and unmanned Russian defenses (held by LPR reservists and Russia “guard”/police), they used terrain and smaller units to probe for weaknesses and fully exploited every opportunity, keeping the momentum and not allowing Russians to consolidate their defense (no defense in deep at all). No doubt coordinated by NATO planners and spec. forces.
Major strategic disaster yes, but the war is not lost tho. Yet Kremlin must change its attitude urgently, or it will be lost.
Where were Russian satellites and intelligence service? Does you understand that 2/3 divisions of 30000 men (and women) to Cuhuiv went unnoticed by Russian general staff?
IMO now would be a good time for Belarus to get involved. The Ukrainians have overcommitted, hit them back twice as hard.
“President Putin’s decision to launch the SMO is harming Russia’s security and citizens.”
Not the DECISION to launch it (which was necessary and unavoidable); but THE COMPLETELY INCOMPETENT WAY IN WHICH IT HAS BEEN CONDUCTED.
Yes, the DECISION itself was the biggest strategic mistake in the world since WW2! It was bloody obvious back in February and now more than ever.
Perhaps Russia should have intervened back in 2013. to stop Maidan with Yanukovich still in power, or in 2014/5 when Ukr.army was in disarray. Or even in 2020. with Trump in Washington and the west obsessed with Covid. But in 2022?

Some, and some of you, maybe, will start to understand the meaning of “karma is a bitch”…
How can be you so sure that you are exempt from it ? Is the “karma” your trusted friend, obedient servant, or personal property ? I will remember you specifically and will come to SF to remind you about “karma” after Ukraine will cease to exist as a state. Remember Pythian prophecies, fortuneteller 666.
this special operation has been botched from the very first days and consequently is now crumbeling. This is one of the worlds worst military defeats of modern times, Russia is no great power anymore
IT WAS NOT A GREAT POWER SINCE THE 80s
It is now. They fight whole NATO in Ukraine only using 15-20% of their armed forces. In these two counterattacks glorious ukronazisisbanderistan has lost 11,000 troops sofar. And it wont end well for kiev. Mark my words. Russia will win one way or the other.
Agree. But the DAMAGE is already DONE. The guilty ones with Putin first MUST pay heavily.
Putins blameless,un;ike your guiilty as hell eugeddon,soros,cia,lgbtq,nazi,isis scumbag!
Hey does that mean that America after their sad and pitiful retreats from Afghanistan, VIETNAM and Iraq is also no superpower? Considering you are a crackhead from Philly…. I understand your logic….
Keep dreaming hoholpig.
There was never such a kind of thing as russian empire, russia is just regional power and nothing more than this. Russia is 3rd world country outside of moscow or saint petersburg.
You’re an imbecile, in any situations, with or without russian errors.
bugger off jealous poof,you got no power to power up anything without the worlds #1 ENERGY! assflogged,low iq blind beggar soros trollop aidz infested kweer fuknut!
Retreat is part of war.
Unlike Ukraine, Russia does not waste the lives of its soldiers to avoid looking bad on twitter.
Russia has retreated to the Oskol line with minimal losses while inflicting massive losses on Ukraine.
This doesn’t mean that serious mistakes were not made in failing to prepare properly for this offensive, and these must be learned from, but it ain’t the end of the world.
Next week Mariupol will be under siege, what excuse will you come up with?
No need for excuses…. The war is going to be lost by NATO…. Russia is taking on the whole of NATO……
Retreat and rebuild then hammer the clowns to feed worms.
Russia will win this war.
Not really, all other fronts except Kharkov are stable (Kharkov is the worst/the most incompetent by far since February). also AFU sustained massive losses so keep dreaming about Mariupol.
btw carlo, ramses, hans, joe9211 probably the same idiotic troll
Ukraine is on the offensive in Ugledar and moves towards Mariupol. Wake Up?
You are dumb as hell,go back to serving your landlord idiot,what if day dreamer,you got nothing!
Looking bad on Twitter, er no. Sorry to say this but Russians now look like stupid arseholes in actual reality. What a totally embarrassing and humiliating cluster fuck the last few days have been.
I disagree. Ukro losses are irrelevant as long as they are winning, if Soviets cared for their losses they would never defeat Germans.
In fact, if soviets would have used their troops with great care and using more the ideas of Vasilievsky and Rokossovsky and not the savage butchery of Jukov they would have won the war faster, advanced deeper in Europe and had more reserves left… I wonder why the Russians allowed the concentration of ukros to develop into an offensive instead of bombing them right away, with the most powerful thermobaric weapons at least…
Russian airforce has expired long ago. So how could the Russians bomb Ukros concentration?
i 100% agree, and to this minute, every opportunity to target concentrations of equipment of the Ukrop offensive in this Izyum-Harkiv area should be fully used. You have endless warehouses of cruise and rocket type munitions (old ASM and anti radiation missiles) that could be retrofitted as lower precision guided munitions. As long as the area is wide from populations the low precision nature is not too much a problem. Since there is movement, plus usually the Sat or drone imagery is poor, you don’t have precise coordinates anyway.
I think command has made some suboptimal choices. Results of rigid binary decision making. Methodical and good usually. But risk takers (as in this case the Ukrops in their harkiv offensive) do get advantages; risk entails reward—caveat, at exposing yourself to downside risk.
I understand in this case they are playing it safe, but to withdraw from Izyum also puts the local population at great risk from Junta war crimes. Are they accounting for that? I think they should be, and htey shouldn’t underestimate their abilities as well, as far as transport helicopters and engineers who can work on transport issues such as ferrying equipment across small rivers.
I think to add command staff who are more flexible thinkers, and who can work in parallel with current command, to test more flexible methods and tactics, would be a good idea.
A stupid idiotic remark which imho should be taxed with 6 month in jail.

Russia still not playing hardball yet. Up against the whole of Nato Russia is looking timid and weak. The breakup of Russia could be a possibility with this dumb strategy. Time for a no fly zone on the whole of Ukraine and to announce any weapons supplied by nato will result in a strike on Nato. Putin said Russia decides where and what the red lines are in Ukraine🤔
I know right!!!! Why the fuck does Russia allow the decision making centers to continue ti exist!!!! My God it makes zero sense!!!!
Putin sent condolences to the British royalty and praised the queen yesterday. This makes zero sense too.
That show what I said, and many others, that Putin is a khazar jew traitor surrounded by its fellow same khazar jew generals. They will fuck Russia IF KGB will not REACT Quickly.
FULLOVIT,81% RUSSIANS ARE MUCH WISER THAN TROLLOP BOT,DRAMA QUEENS! WHERES YOUR PROOF ASSWIPE?
and also praised fucking Gorbachev, the worst traitor in history.
YOU FOOL NO ONE PRETENDING TO CARE ABOUT RUSSIA EITH WAY,DID HE GO TO THE TRAINTORS FUNERAL,FK NO! YOU PREVERSED CIA TROLLS ARE HILLARIOUS, LOSER BUM IMPOTENT SLIMES FOOL NO ONE EXCEPT YOUR PETTY SELFS,DUMMY!
retard stop screaming like a monkey you fucking imbecile, it only makes you looks even more retarded.
It doesn’t if you are uneducated about great leaders,the queen like the duke were both murdered by the mi6/nazi deep state mobsters on the sly,use your head if you got the guts!
PUTIN WANTS RUSSIA TO FAIL?
FAILED AGAIN RONNY,KEEP LOSING THE PLOT GROT!
Im no expert but seems to me SF is coming pretty fast to conclusion. Why are Russian supposed to care about some territory lost. All that matter to them is limiting casualties among their troops while killing max Uki which they are doing pretty well
Why care? Because now pro-Russian civilians (who can’t escape) will be tortured and killed. The result of this is that in the future when Russia takes territory there will be no one to cooperate with them since they know that Russia will just run away and leave them to be tortured to death by nazi terrorists. No sane person will want to cooperate with Russia now after they just leave them to their fate.
And all of this could have been avoided if only the Jewish extremists in the regime in Kremlin allocated enough units to the fight, but they didn’t even thought they could have done so.
Oh and Russia IS suffering casualties because of this, not only in equipment but in manpower as well.
THERE WERE HARLY ANY CIVILIANS LEFT SEENS THEY EVACUATED THEM YOU DUMBASS TROLL!
A hard learnt lesson. But for the rest of the world, this fact is obvious from 1946 itself.
BINGO! we have a winner.
Basically, since the very beginning at least some of the authors of SouthFront have been critical of what they, together with Strelkov and other maximalists, believe to be a too soft military campaign on the part of Russia.
There is a part of the Russian population and some pro-Russian analysts that believe that “playing nice”, trying to be considerate towards the Ukrainian civilian population (by not hitting infrastructures or the political leadership) and not mobilizing seriously to inflict a decisive and devastating blow to Ukraine means projecting weakness, inviting more support from the West and going down the road of defeat.
The people that harbor this opinion basically exploit every setback in order to push their agenda (putting pressure on the Russian military and political leadership so that Russia starts to conduct a much more brutal, lethal and encompassing war on Ukraine).
I don’t know if they are right or not in their analysis. But the doomsday predictions of Southfront and these people are not the result of just a neutral analysis. They are also the result of the desire to push a political agenda, right or wrong that it might be.
I would agree with these southfront authors because what Russia is doing is seriously stupid. First, playing nice does not help Russia at all, Ukraine will still hate Russia.
Ukraine has the biggest propaganda machine that ever existed, they have now made every Ukraine think that Russia is the most evil country every and they are constantly being told every day about the atrocities that Russia has done, which are mostly all just made up or twisting the truth.
There is no reason why Russia should not play nice. Remember what is the saying, I’d rather be feared than loved?
Its quite obvious Russia is going to lose this war.
Grow up limp simp of soros uniteds,you keweers are going nowhere in life gutless vax head!
Russia playing nice to US, UK, Poland, NATO etc which are slaughtering Russian soldiers. But there’s nothing new in it.
Because lost Kharkov Russian army no longer has a chance to advance into the Donbass. Wake up!
fullovit,day dreaming believe anything you read from some askhenazi poof whom posts lies,fkn drr!
If Russians run back to Russia, they can avoid all casualties.
Maybe Putin is sick , mentally damaged or autistic after all.
All those that died what for?
MAYBE YOUR THE MENTALLY CHALLENGED GIMP WITHOUT A CLUE,MI6 AUTISTIC HOMOSEXUAL!
If Izyum is lost…
SF doesn’t believe in Russian sustainability. This is outstanding for this situation.
Por que no se realiza un bombardeo masivo?
It is lost. In a matter of days…. It means Russian offensive on Slavyansk is not even theoretically possible any more. Full liberation of DPR is also impossible right now. Actually, right now it looks like Russia is fighting for survival not for victory.
AFU failed to defeat DPR militia back in 2014/5 now they defeated Russian army…… I have no words for this failure.
But I’m not even surprised, failure to take Kharkov back in February fully exposed all RuA weaknesses. The real question are they capable to recover like in Russo-Turkish war of 1877/8 or it will be a total disaster like Russo-Japanese war 1904/5?
Get your hand off it cnn easybeat!
BIG FUKN IF,WISHFULL QTARD NAZI STINKERS!
No, this is a trap according to southfront commenters.
Why the FUCK does Russia allow the decision making centers to continue to exist??? This makes ZERO SENSE!!!!!
the decision-making centres are in Washington DC. The fact is that things would have to get really bad for Russia before it will intensify its war effort to the scale of its actions in World War Two. Ultimately, it may require the Ukrainians to actually enter Russia with NATO tanks chasing down millions of refugees, before the Russian people commit fully to the war
Russian Jews oligarch interests…..
They have invested hundreds of billions in Ukraine just like Russia did (before 2014). But they didn’t have their investments nationalized (like Russia did) by the NAZI’s. So the oligarchs use their influence on Kremlin to block any bombings of the railroads, gas fields, and everything that can complicate their investments in Ukraine….That is against Russian interests of course…
nice try mi6 flog,however the real deal belong to the truth,not you flimsy fools of cia/soros! loser bums got no clue about the real powers of russia belongs to 81% of the peoples=FIXED!
None of your fkn business trollop,either way there will be more pain via other means in the future!
yeah, this has led me believing putin might be a part of reset gamer sponsored by WEF.
Russia will retreat into Russia if necessary. It is a war, and retreat into Russia’s depths is part of Russian tactics. Stalin did the same so it can’t hurt Putin to do that, he can retreat and attack again as many times as he likes. The war just goes on.
Now ukraine will invade Russia.
Wtf are the morons in moscow still waiting for? 50 tactical bataillon groups still in russia, send them all in! 2 Million reservists, till now not a single one called in, so call in a part of them and smash with these fresh forces the ukros within weeks totally.
no why risk their arrmy its dpr/lpr war not russias. what bothers me is how russia is sending free food and money to poor countries with nothing in return
PORQUE RUSIA NO DUPLICA EL NUMERO DE SOLDADOS ? ESTA NO ES UNA GUERRITA BARATA CASI DEPORTIVA DE LOS NORTEAMERICANOS LOS RUSOS ESTAN PELEANDO CONTRA TODA LA OTAN !
They should of declared war from the start. Having just 10% of your army is no good it should have been 600,000 plus 250,000 reserves backing them up. Too late now.
rigt, moscow wasting time since 6 months, but nothing is too late. still 50 tactical bataillon groups in russia, just send them all in and in the meantime call in a part of the 2 million russian reservists, and the whole thing (russian victory and total ukro defeat) could be done before end of this year.
Nothing is too late. There’s is still time to runaway.
thats stupid. whos gonna defend the russias borders then?
the fact is that Russians tend to laze around and not be particularly concerned about winning a war until atrocities are done to them. The Russians will only become truly effective when the West’s bloodlust results in a lot of violence in Russia, and then they will all unite and become what they were in World War Two again, whereas the West’s enthusiasm will recede until just a few Neocons in the Situation Room have it
First you must findeth,before ranting on like an assflogged insolent headless ignorant punk!
A million men would barely be enough.
PUTIN WILL BE OUSTED BY PATRIOTS AND REPLACED BY A REAL LEADER. ALL HE HAS DONE IS JERK OFF TO VOSTOK GAMES AND TANK BIATHLON
Your word vs his,peronally i go by the real events,not the lost souls of dominions of soros + co (period)
CORRUPT USELESS SHITHOLE RUSSIA. GLOBALIST NAZIS WILL TAKE THE WORLD THEN.

Forget it quad vaxxed impotent fools!
Soon enough, there will be a response by the russian side. The war may take more time to finish. But Ukraine has definitely cease to exist. The AFU could not even defeat the rebels within 8 years with the help of nato, let alone escape from russia…
Not really, more and more NATO and USA weapons and training will keep pouring into Ukraine. Ukraine will just be much stronger.
Remember, its not Ukraine vs Russia, its the World vs Russia, and Ukraine is getting supplied with everything it needs.
This is not like Germany in WW2, where nobody was helping Germany and supplying them with anything. That was was Germany vs the World.
No. Nato has been helping Ukraine for 8 years already. Yet they couldn’t even defeat the rebels. The Ukrainian soldiers were slaughtered in Kherson just recently. They only managed to advance against a stretched and weakly defended front line under the cover of the forest. This will only lead to a more bloody conflict, especially for Ukrainians. The result is still the same.
ESTO ASEGURA UNA COSA UNA LARGA GUERRA CON MUCHOS MAS MUERTOS
By the way, speaking of supplying, freezing cold for Europe is coming, bringing with it crushing impoverishment. Let see what Europe will be able to supply from now on.
Yes, there will be some supply trouble in Europe but freezing to death? What are you – 10 years old?
G7 AINT THE WORLD!
Germany was supported by a lot of countries including Japan, Italy or Romania and also by Stalin up to 1941.
maybe. but how moronic must you be to send only 200k man on a over 1200km long frontline, when you need 500k???
Putin and his military advisers thought it would be enough to thwart any counter offensive simply using air and artillery means. It turns out that they were wrong.
The area North-West of Doneck is defended by the West (their weapons, money, and mercenaries) for a reason. This is where the Dnieper-Doneck Oil and Gas Basin is located and the Yuzovsky Shale Gas Block operated by western company Shell. Ukrainians are fighting and dying to protect the interests of Shell, not their own interests. Why am I not surprised? The same oil and natural gas interests were behind all the wars following the 9/11. More on this here: https://mydundasvalley.com/2022/09/08/five-government-claims-about-inflation-debunked/ – (see the comment under the video) and here: https://regionpojezierze.com/alleged-plan-b/
And the great Russian Army, slowly advanced 1-2 km per day for months while in 3 days Ukrainian army managed to advance tens of kilometers and almost force Russians out of Harkov region. Long-fought over towns such as Balakleya, Izium, Kupiansk are abandoned with almost no fight, seem Russian army is composed mostly of bunnyrabbits, fleeing at first sight of real danger. If Ukraine succed with this operation, they might put additional pressure on the Donbass front. The spectre of Russia defeat at the level of conventional war is quite clear. Will Putin push the button and use tactical nukes, the only card he still has, or akwnoledge defeat? Both options are equally bad, long-term for Russia and will ruin it..
evidence plze or else shut the fk up wishfull stinkers!
Frustration and anger will not solve the problems. Chanelisse your anger in another direction. Go vote for another president, fight for a democratic, european Russia.
Substantive arguments would do better than insults. Otherwise you are just making a fool of yourself, a true troll, and an idiot. Let me guess, Azov Battalion propaganda unit? KGB? GRU? Or, Biden’s CIA and Mossad to keep the war spirits high? Are you afraid that the Ukrainians will stop fighting and the war will end when you tell them the truth?
That shows the quality of UAF and Russian military.
The whole special military operation was very badly planned from the begining, and was a bad idea to start with. Any operation to conquer a country the size of Ukraine would have needed at least 600 000 man. I feel very sorry for all the victims of this maddnes, on all sides of this stupid ethnic conflict, but worst will happen for the pro-Russian Ukrainians in following weeks… there is literally no hope for them. Retribution will be harsh and no one will intervene for them.
The whole of your comment is spot-on correct, except for “was a bad idea to start with”. The operation was necessary and unavoidable in order to prevent the imminent massacre and ethnic cleansing of the Donbass Russians by the West-supported Ukronazi regime.
Or its a trap, and ukropigs are about to get ….. in firepockets.
Pro Russians always dreaming about traps. Soon UAF will be in Moscow. Pro Russians will be still dreaming about traps!
Please install high-precision, high power, mid-range missile system surrounding the the compound of nuclear power generator in Ukraine currently controlled by Russia.
From here, these missile systems will take their time aim at all strategic corners of every part of Ukraine, and destroy all strategic targets at the appropriate times.
Not to worry, Ukraine’s forces will not try to destroy these missile systems situated next to the nuclear power generators.
yeah hit everywhere “with high-precision missiles” :)
“Allow the enemy to cross half its men before you strike. Victory assured.” SunTzu
Lyman and Izium is under control of ukrainian army. There is reports that right now ukrainian troops are in outskirts of Lisichansk. Russian defence collapse much faster than ukrainian in first days of war. Russian invaders are fcked hahahahahahahah happy time
Russia urgently needs YOUNG courageous, talented generals to take charge. – Shoigu and his geriatric bunch (of office desk Napoleons) must go to deserved pension. Putin’s approach of half measure in everything and endless compromises was WRONG from the start in Ukraine!
they would slap you down in no time demented weak pussi punk of thios century,try again faddy gimp! you aint got the retro balls to take on several,let alone one whos barely a centimeter taller than you fgn FIXED!
They went into Ukraine on February 24th, saying they wanted to “demilitarize” and “denazify” Ukraine; and on FEBRUARY 27TH, literally THREE DAYS LATER – they started negotiating with the VERY SAME MILITARIZED, NAZI UKRAINIAN REGIME!! Is this a joke? High comedy? Can ANYONE win ANY kind of conflict in this way???
Smh, what’s going on with Russian leadership, it’s very frustrating, yet I still have faith for an all out counter attack.
