Apparently, the Ukrainians have been able to cause casualties on the advancing Russians and destroy some infrastructure. We'll see if this delays them.

Unless, of course, the Russians are already inside.

The Ukrainians might be screwed.

Most of their forces (best troops) are pinned down in the east and Kiev can only rely on tens of thousands of armed civilians and maybe many thousands of regulars.
They were always screwed. By geography, the country is indefensible. Especially at this time of year with the ground froze. If the Russians went all-in,
Kiev was doomed.

Not sure if any of those guns are actually out of commission, they look recoverable from that distance. The bridge pic is from about sunrise.
 
Here's some high-rez eye candy. Ukrainian armor in Kharkov.



Yet another twist on the "saboteurs". Milinfolive claims to have a clip with these guys confirming they are NOT Russians, but Ukrainian military after all.



In Obolon, there were several killed soldiers in the form of the VSU video in our cart 👉 https://t.me/milinfolive/76788, many were captured. It was initially reported that these Russian soldiers who changed in the Ukrainian form. Now Ukrainian sources say that car drivers have been identified and they turned out to be Ukrainian military. It seems that this group retreated towards Kiev and for some reason they were accepted for the DRG of Russia.
P.S - Looks like the culprit of the battle between the soldiers of the Ukrainian Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine. She originally called the Ukrainian column of the Russian DRG.

I dunno. They said they killed 400-800 Russian soldiers in the first day and that Kiev is being hit by relentless missile strikes that're terrorizing civilians, but no one's shown any evidence of numerous dead Russian troops and armored columns, and we've got cameras in Kiev showing that despite the sirens nothing's going on. Like I said Russia's as into the propaganda game as Ukraine, but I feel like that's all everything is so far from their government, propaganda.
 
One thing I've noticed is how calm people seem to be in these videos. Maybe that's normal, but it'd make it tough for the government to spin the narrative of Russians terrorizing and killing civilians when everybody on the ground seems like they feel relatively safe despite an actual invasion happening. That or they just don't really care.
Might be a case of the famed Eastern Slav apathy.
