Summary Of Russian Combat Footage From May 30, 2025

File image.

On May 30, several videos showing recent combat operations by the Russian military against Kiev forces in several directions were posted to social networks.

Most of the videos showed recent FPV suicide drones strikes from the directions of Donetsk, Sumy, Kharkiv and others. The footage contain more than 60 strikes in total, with the targets ranging from Ukrainian positions and troops to weapons, including two infantry fighting vehicles, an American-made M2A2 Bradley and a Swedish-made CV9040C, as well as a Ukrainian-made 2S22 Bohdana self-propelled howitzer and Baba Yaga armed hexacopter drones.

One other video showed a series of strikes by Ka-52 attack helicopters and TOS-1A multiple thermobaric rocket launchers on a gathering of Ukraine’s 43rd Artillery Brigade near the settlement of Peschanoye in Kharkiv.

Another video documents a strike with a FAB-300 bomb equipped with a UMPK guidance and gliding kit on a gathering of the 141st Infantry Brigade of Kiev forces close to the settlement of Komar in Donetsk.

The last video shows a series of strikes with lighter UMPK bombs on Ukrainian fortifications in the settlements of Novotroitskoye, Vladimirovka, and Shevchenko Pervoye in Donetsk.

In its daily briefing, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that Kiev forces have lost 663 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 60,423 drones, 607 air defense systems, 23,651 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,565 multiple rocket launchers, 25,396 artillery pieces, and 36,191 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.

once more, the drumbeat of desperate ukrainian/nato propaganda sounds, seeking to fracture the spirit of the opposing side. with no strong argument to stand on and an inflated belief in their own intellectual superiority, they stumble again and again. perhaps the illusion has finally faded—they are no longer the city on the hill, but a reflection of chaos, corruption, and blind arrogance.

ukraine had carried out its first strike with a domestically produced long neptune cruise missile, underscoring the country’s growing capabilities to strike deep into russian territory with missiles. ukrainian missile production is expected to expand in the coming months.

neptune missiles are not new. stocks and production lines will burn just as easily as the rest of the nato provided weapons.

ukraine’s own military production is in 2025 around 30 times bigger than in 2022. growing share of weaponry, ammo and aviation is now domestic production. ukrainians are very good at killing russian military persons and destroying russian material.

MacZ

they are mostly good at lying and dying en masse. those that want to believe their lies do it at their own peril. their military production include the mass production of toy drones that they used in a months long campaign against russia that had a big fat zero result. they are toy drones because anything that require an actual industrial production line will be targeted and destroyed pretty soon.

march – 133 km² – 4.43 km² p/day

april – 177 km² – 5.90 km² p/day

struggles with equipment: russia is reportedly running low on its soviet-era equipment stockpiles, and may face difficulties in replacing lost hardware. inadequate manpower: reports suggest that russia is facing difficulties in recruiting and training personnel, and may be struggling to maintain morale among mobilized troops.

nato and the eu admit that russia is producing more equipement that it needs for its operations, and that worries them. russia does not seem to have problem to recruit as it has reserves and can rotate its troops, contrary to the side losing the conflict.

rasputin

thank for your post i am laughing a lot now😂😂😂

protectourfreedumbs

russia has got trained troops, tanks, drones and ammunition coming out of its ears. the ukies have got pregnant women and press ganged schmucks with hand-me-down western garbage that was due for the knacker’s yard.

Gunnar Von Hertzen

the russian military is facing logistical challenges in maintaining supply lines and coordinating operations, potentially hindering their ability to achieve decisive victories. corruption continues to plague russia’s military procurement efforts, potentially impacting the quality and availability of equipment.

MacZ

that russia is winning is quite clear for everyone, especially the side whinning for an uncondtionnal ceasefire.

GetReal

yet the ukrainians are still retreating so the russians must be doing something right, eh? :)

rasputin

the only ones with logistical problems are afu trains, planes and boats that are wiped out all the time😂😂😂

the narrative

what government supports this type commentator ?

Gunnar Von Hertzen

despite throwing everything at the conflict, the kremlin has been unable to break ukraine. while russian forces have made some advances, they have been unable to capture key strategic locations or achieve their objectives in the conflict.

MacZ

the ukrainian military potential is being grinned down. that is the goal that was declared at the start of the smo and is proceeding at a fast pace. 1.2 million ukrainians dead a multiple of that crippled.

rasputin

not everything my friend rf has not mobilized yet😂😂😂

the narrative

they have not thrown everything . attrition is the plan because it works .

Gunnar Von Hertzen

problems with drone swarms: while russia has been experimenting with using drone swarms. russians are facing challenges in coordinating and controlling them.

MacZ

russia is adapting to modern war and is probably the most capable fighting force of the planet at the moment. the air defense of ukraine is depleted and right now they are about to receive a metric ton of shaed right in the face every day. that is not a ‘challenge’.

you must be very informed, because all the video evidence shows the opposite even kiev was burning last week🤔

Degeneration Of Russia

russian military is struggling to adapt to the demands of the war in ukraine and that its capabilities may be diminishing over time.

MacZ

in the childish magical thinking world of loser propagandists. that is why they are losing : they are unwilling to look at reality.

it’s best to stop posting stupid things and go to the front lines because you just lost another 13 villages!

at least two powerful explosions rocked an area used for russian navy drills in the far east primorye region, the local branch of russia’s national antiterrorism committee (nac) said friday.

the blasts occurred early in the morning in desantnaya bay, located around 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) east of the regional capital vladivostok, the nac said.

ukrainian intelligence behind explosions at russian naval base in vladivostok, media report

Gerry Francis

the sources said two blasts occurred in desantnaya bay, near the base of the 47th separate air assault battalion, which is part of russia’s 155th guards naval infantry brigade. one explosion reportedly struck near a checkpoint, while the other targeted the unit’s personnel and command quarters. the attack reportedly hit personnel, military equipment, and specialized assets.

MacZ

it’s funny that urgent need to report (alledged) explosions against russia when explosions in ukraine happen multiple times everyday and by now are barely reported anymore. this is war and the sheer discrepency between what is happening in both countries shows the big picture : ukraine is being destroyed.

russian military is weak, fragile and corrupted. russian economy is coming near to its breakpoint. 70% of reserve funds swallowed by russian military failure in ukraine. now rooskies are even lacking potatoes.

repeating falsehoods won’t make them real. every child learn that early on. it just makes your side stupid and unable to adapt to reality until a catastrophe they ignored crush them so much that they have no choice but to look around.
