Ukraine - Russia Conflict

Another hybrid military equipment of the Ukrainian army appeared on video. The developers took as a basis the MT-12 100-mm anti-tank gun created in the 1960s. And they put it on the MT-LB multi-purpose light armored transporter, developed in 1964.


One of the Ukrainian M777 howitzers made in the United States, exhibited at the Army-2022 International Military-Technical Forum.

 
Russian T-72B withstood a Javelin ATGM strike in Ukraine. The episode of the battle was published by military commander Andrey Filatov. Two Russian tanks tried to enter the village of Kamenka in July. One of the tanks was hit by Javelin anti-tank systems. Despite this, the tank turned around and continued to move. After a while, the tank stopped and the mechanic corrected something on the tank.

 

Explosions rang out in the temporarily occupied Kyrylivka. It was to this resort town that the invaders brought their military equipment. After all, Muscovites were afraid that the Armed Forces would get to it in Melitopol. However, our forces are everywhere - Melitopol Mayor Ivan Fedorov emphasized.

 
The rumble:

It seems that the front is moving again:

- On the north of Kharkiv the Russians begin an operation of encirclement

- Russians have advanced on Soledar but not on Bakmut

- big Russian advance on south-western Donetsk

- small Russian advance in the west of Kherson

Find better sources, the Russian front around Soledar and Bakhmut is unchanged in >1 week. Russians are always doing this, they say we advanced here, I look at the map, and they've done jack sh1t.

Literally nothing has moved around Kharkiv for over a month. The Ukrainians pushed them out of Kharkiv and back to the border and then the Russians retook Ternova village back in like June or something, that situation remains.

Donetsk - Look at the map below, you see that thick red line? That's where they were on Feb 23rd before the invasion even started.

Kherson - You are joking right? Either that or they were advancing in the wrong direction.


Additionally, you see all those blue blobs in the red? They're partisan attacks. And they've lost two airbases and Crimea is no longer safe.

The war in Ukraine, tactically speaking, is a "normal" high intensity war. Politically, on the other hand, and this is the most important thing, it is a colonial war, between a country that behaves like a coloniser and wishes to destroy the independence of the other (and not to subjugate it, there is a nuance) and a nation that, on the contrary, wants to free itself from its tutelage.

A war of submission can end when the dominator is willing to negotiate with the one he wanted to submit. A colonial war can only end when the coloniser leaves the field.

This can happen through military defeat (Indochina, Greek War of Independence, American War of Independence) or also through the defeat of the home front (e.g. Algeria, Vietnam, Angola). It may take a few years or it may last thirty years. But it always ends with the defeat of the coloniser because he no longer has the will to continue pouring money, men and means into a Danaid's barrel where victory is impossible, whereas the colonised knows that he can win if he holds out long enough.
