I would be surprised if Russia were not dominating on the ground, given Ukraine's shortage of weapons and ammunition.

The video shows an assault by a Russian unit, with the support of armored vehicles, on a stronghold of the Ukrainian army in the Novomikhailovka area. The video has been shortened, the dead Ukrainian soldiers are hidden. The Ukrainian army reportedly stormed the stronghold for two days afterwards, but was unable to retake it.

I think recent Russian spy sat is excellent enough to identify these 'lines' and sent the coordinates to the Russian air force to deal with it...

With this (FAB-3000 soon with UMPK glide kits)

ohh yes the country that has a 6 to 1 artillery advantage while constantly dropping FABs suffers more losses while being the only ones that substantiate their claims showing visual proof of military assets getting destroyed, Russians have also pushed a mobilization law to lower the conscription age to 18 because of their severe lack of manpower.

Come on this is just getting depressing even if anyone is a user here heavily influenced from drinking and drug use. If such numerical claims are true Russians should be the ones getting pushed back not the other way around. Hell, they wouldn't even need to pass constant mobilization laws. Why do the Ukrainians constantly need equipment? It doesn't sound like they need it from what they have claimed these past 2 years from the amount of support they received.


178 billion dollars was already invested in this war, Its already impossible to get Congress to pay up and Europe is assuming that Trump will win the election. Sure Europe has the 100 billion europ plan but that is a "5 year fund plan" That does not mean they automatically get 100 billion euros thrown at them for this year but its for 5 years. With Congress not passing shit and 20 billion euros only gets sent per year Ukraine these following years will be alot worser now than it was before and the past 2 years they have not achieved much. Pentagon is claiming Russia spent 211 billion dollars on the Ukraine war https://vk.com/wall-25232578_15749035?ysclid=luofd1svi504720103 but it is not affecting them economically.

We are out of super wonder weapon ideas for Ukraine as well.

Manpower is also facing lack of funds despite lowering the draft age. There are still no white vans forcing russians to fight and there are still soo many that are conscripted like they don't have any lacking in funds. The age group around the 20s is not a lot and maybe a good 2 solid years you will get new blood for those that will hit 18.
1712429104048.png

I dont even think any Ukrainian in Ukraine will have a future and General Shoigu's estimate of the war will end somewhere in 2025 seems more realistic because you need at least 2 years to get more new fresh blood and you will also be looking for grandpas to fight in the war. It looks like there will be less funding these following years than the past 2 years already spent on Ukraine to speed up the systematic killing process the Russians are currently conducting.

They went from Ukraine has a 1 million man army plan to, we are having problems trying to get 500,000 people mobilized. Based on the time estimate and the Ukrainian losses there is not much left of Ukraine's age groups demographically. If you somehow pull 500,000 to launch offensives while being on the defensive position as well this year than you are going to have a serious problem for mobilization next year. Lets all put down the weed and alcohol that Ukraine has any chance of winning this war here.

these losses absolutely explain why Ukraine's offensive that was to go to Crimea barely went anywhere and that they are currently getting their asses pushed back who barely started any offensives since early 2022. I wish some made up graphs can correspond with what goes on in the battlefield like how Ukraine said they have 1 million fighters, Zelensky said 31,000 got killed, but they are having problems trying to find 500,000 people for mobilization. Are you trying to be funny or are you genuinely serious about what you post along with relic and ecderha? I dont think everyone's IQ is like 80 or below here on this forum to feel convinced anymore at this point than before.

I think you got your timeline wrong. Russia withdrew from Kherson north of the Dnipro and similarly retreated from a great deal of territory in the east of Ukraine summer/autumn 2022.

Donald Trump privately said he could end the war by pressuring Ukraine to give up some territory. Some foreign policy experts said Trump's idea would "reward" dictator Putin and encourage border violations by force.

According to sources close to Trump, his proposal involves putting pressure on Ukraine to cede Crimea and the border regions of Donbass. The strategy, which has not been previously reported, is fundamentally different from Biden's - containing Russian aggression and military support for Ukraine.

In an attempt to return to power, the presumptive Republican candidate has repeatedly declared the ability to reach a peace agreement between the Russian Federation and Ukraine “within 24 hours of election.” However, he avoided public comments on specific steps to resolve the conflict.

At closed meetings, Trump said that both Russia and Ukraine were trying to “save face” and were looking for a way out of the situation. He also suggests that residents of some Ukrainian territories “could accept joining the Russian Federation,” writes WP.

However, as the publication writes, recognition of the occupation of Crimea and Donbass will expand the influence of Putin’s dictatorship. Some Trump supporters are trying to convince him of the dangers of such a development.

Kharkiv region is under big threat. Evacuation of civilians has started in the north side.

As a result of Russian air strikes, Today energy supply of Kharkiv has been destroyed thus 410000 houses cut off from electricity.

On the federal TV channels, the Russians openly recognize the bombing of Kharkiv as terror aimed at intimidating and "breaking the will of civilians"🤬







Next strikes are being expected. President Zelensky wowed retaliation.
