...online commentators are no longer just reporting on troop movements. They are directly challenging the official updates provided by top generals.
One Russian commentator went so far as to describe the constant stream of positive reports as part of a broader “culture of lies”, the ISW noted accoridng to O2.
This false optimism creates severe problems on the ground. When commanders draw up plans based on fake maps and imaginary victories, the soldiers on the front lines pay the ultimate price.
The internal revolt creates a major headache for Vladimir Putin. The Russian leader recently claimed that operations in the Donbas were going perfectly to plan.
He told the public that the Ukrainian army was struggling and losing ground, according to a report by TSN. But the reality in the trenches quickly exposed those claims.
For example, Putin recently declared that Russian forces controlled Sviatohirsk. Shortly after that speech, Ukrainian troops demonstrated full control over the exact same city.
On September 1, Russian President Vladimir Putin proudly announced that his troops had captured the Ukrainian city of Sviatohirsk. Less than a week later, Putin’s claim came back to haunt him when Ukrainian commander Andriy Biletsky posted a video address recorded in the center of Sviatohirsk demonstrating that the city was still very much under Ukrainian control.
Or perhaps Putin is simply using his words in the press to compel Ukrainian troops to take certain actions on the battlefield. Just imagine that Ukrainian meatboys are being sent into заведомо disadvantageous positions simply because Putin said something.![]()

They won't be as İnfrared stealth as Shahid drones due to huge heat signature. Just missiles with mmW seeker (Hellfire Longbow , Brimstone, Spear , RIM-116) could engage them.Russia has introduced jet powered strike drones. If they fly at 600 kilometres per hour as claimed in the video, will existing Ukrainian anti-drone defences, effective against propeller-driven drones, be effective against the faster drones?
