@randomradio, @Hydra The number today is 280 dead and 1120 killed or wounded. Along with 32 armed ground vehicles.
These reports are endless garbage. They've been claiming to have surrounded Siversk for at least a week too. This map is fact the rest is fiction:
Only a PILE OF ASHES remained: the mountain infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine arranged an EXPLOSIVE MEETING with the occupiers
If you cant define what a super power is then you have no business talking abt it. It is just you have already taken sides and hell bent on using words that you have no idea abt. In short you have no facts and obviously you will be disappointed when it does not meet your emotional requirements.If this the answer to my statement, you deserve not to be in a defense forum.
fanboys, rt? if so why do you want to take them seriously. All those arm chair experts who havent fought or seen a battle in last 30 years ended up becoming defence experts. Now we need to believe them.Really? Are you telling me that you have been ignorant of what Russian fanboys have claimed about Russian military capability? But not just fanboys either but the so called "defense experts" have made such claims. So don't play dumb, buddy, you know exactly what he's talking bout.
If you are not what is super power because of ignorance, i will call you a nut in defense matters. If you are trolling me by this query since i criticized Russia for their failure to establish viktory over a punny nation even after 5 month of intense campaign, then i will tell that you think that Russia is your sugar daddy, who will accept the failure of a sugar daddy.If you cant define what a super power is then you have no business talking abt it.

Both, because both bring different perspectives. Britain has the 5 eyes intelligence and Ukraine has the on-the-ground, frontline perspective.
Russian losses yesterday morning were 240 dead and 720 injured, so probably 240 dead and 240 missing limbs. Not all Ukrainian people are signed up or trained up yet, and they have full mobilisation authority. You're talking propaganda bollox again.
You tell us? I don't even think Putin knows. In fact, given how he denied the strike on Odessa and then admitted it I'm not even sure he's in full command of his armed forces or knows the situation on the ground. The strike targeted a military boat, which was floating o dry land.
His objective is changing. His ideology is one of Imperialism, and I believe his original plans were all of Ukraine in 3 weeks, that was later revised to the bottom half of Ukraine to Transnistria in 3 months, now it's like... "think of an exit strategy where I can claim victory... err... errr... I'm a bald dumbass."
It's pretty funny when a HIMARS knocks out a S-300 or S-400.
I am an Indian, i do not need to propagate the propoganda of anyone other than GOI. I m treating both Ukrain & Russia equally in this war, so asper me Russian actin is completely against the international law( of course unwritten ) just like the US action in Iraq.If you believe Ukrainian propaganda, then how are you expected to understand Russian objectives? That's the issue here, with both you and Hydra.
You don't know what the Russian objective is, how they are accomplishing it and how successfully they are doing it.
It's funny, right? Ukr is "winning", but it's Russia that's taking territory.
Few things which most members forget here is that after the debacle in the first stage of the war during attack on Kiev, the Russians have switched to east and south and their role is mostly confined to supplying arms to the forces of the Luhansk and Donetsk. Russian forces are mostly providing fire support, AD and material with very limited actual combat. The real combat has been outsourced to mercenaries from various parts of Russia.I am an Indian, i do not need to propagate the propoganda of anyone other than GOI.

I am not believing any propaganda too here, just believing the time line, 5+ months and counting.
