...wtf. Do the Russians not believe in setting checkpoints, perimeters, or traffic control?

Note : Just to be crystal clear, I'm assuming their armored vehicles are actually stopping for civilian vehicles to cross.

I am almost 99% certain that that vid we saw of a guy and his dad + 2 doggos getting mowed down by a high caliber gun was a case of a 'forward checkpoint' by the russians overreacting, similar to what frequently happened in Iraq with the US. 'recon elements' told to setup checkpoint far behind enemy lines sometimes, locals have no fucking clue this is even happening already, tragedy ensues:

one key difference this time around tho - the americans would at least let anyone that survived go, russians likely rolled up and killed the son after that to leave no witnesses, then officially blamed it on ukranian forces...who are mostly stuck in the east and would almost certainly not have that high caliber weapons over there.

It already gotten them into trouble more than a few times. See: all the pictures of Russki convoys getting ambushed and destroyed.

Its been speculated that many of the vehicles you see getting blown up and towed away were stragglers/seperated from the rest of the unit, or simply ran out of fuel and the drivers legged it or got captured or shot or w/e. Either way, even the propaganda machine is having trouble assuring us that Kyiv can fend off a column of Russian armour, even if it is advancing at a cripplingly slow pace and constantly stopping for... smoke breaks? refueling? letting old ladies cross the road?

Spoiler: Rare footage of Russian forces advancing upon Kyiv

 

[Happy Fish]

Not sure. I've always about halfway suspected that the Russian government wanted to encourage the TRUMP IS A RUSSIAN ASSET REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE sperging in order to keep politics stirred up in the US.

I guess in-browser you can auto translate and they legit threaten electing Trump if their critical infrastructure is threatened.

I feel like this could be exploitable but I'm too lazy.
My initial thought was that picture of Exodia where it's Spyro characters and Subway but I don't hate myself enough to actually go looking for it if I can't find it in thirty seconds.

"Now, to discuss the upcoming Kiev encirclement, comrades..... If you need an example of just how tightly I want you to strangle the city, then please take a look here at exhibit A"

 

[Clem Fandango]

Fuck all the journalists and social media. I'm still calling it Kiev.

I know this is from days ago (just making my way through thread highlights), but YES.

Why are they doing this? Do they call the capital of France "Paree"? Do they call Munich "München"? No? Then fuck off with this Kyeev nonsense.

If there's one thing I've got from this thread it's how much vitriol there is to the left/right based on their media, lol. If you hate the left/right based solely on their media, guess what... You're a part of the problem. You're basically the opposite of the people that only consume only their sides media, in that you buy in to the hype by providing the targeted insults to the opposite side as well. Obviously the media is biased, point it out but don't go blaming the whole left/right.

The media is there to generate $, and they do that by pushing agendas... You're not smarter than them as an entity, and you're fucking stupid if you let them make you hate their side because of their reporting imo

My vitriol is for people that KNOW the media is feeding them lines of bullshit, but they gobble it up anyways and take it as fact.
It's no secret i'm pretty hard right, I watch/consume a lot of the alt tech shit, some tucker on occasion, but I look at that shit as critically as I can. I don't trust any of these fucks, left right or center. If you hear em all marching to the same drums, you gotta be even more critical.

You have people that are taking places like that faggoty https://twitter.com/KyivIndependent as "indy journalism" They take it as fact. They won't do surface level digging. Let me show you how i know they are most likely a EU puppet. https://www.gofundme.com/f/kyivindependent-launch gofundme for nearly 800 thousand pounds. That's not enough on it's own, i get it, but look at the guy that runs it.
Jakub Parusinski (his twitter account) https://www.journalismfestival.com/speaker/jakub-parusinski

I might trust that guy for ukrainian reporting, but his bias is very clear now. So many cases of shit like that, people just posting it like it's proven fact. That would be like someone posting RT or Sputnik shit as fact.

They pay taxes don't they?

Many of them?... no they are part of the disability class.... The rest, are bots. But it still doesn't reclude their participatiom in events that others percieve as important, it's purely manufactured. It's all designed to manipulate and control the trends. And make sure the Blues respond, or retweet.

lol holy shit, you know the DNC is going to be running ads with that shit.

China unsurprisingly not parting in any sanctions. Say they have no basis in law nor are they effective.

Day 7. As per @Null's Supreme Request, I've thumbnailed my images; you may want to click to unblur them.

Today's key facts:

• With the capture of Kherson and the imminent fall of Mykolayev, the road to Odessa will soon be open to Russian armed forces, precipitating the complete conquest of southern Ukraine.
• Mariupol is surrounded, with many of Zelensky's pro-NATO forces under siege.
• The northern part of the Donbass front is advancing towards the Kharkov front in order to join them.

Eastern axis (Sumy - Kharkov)
The Russian troops are deeply advanced towards Kiev.

The town of Konotop is surrounded. The Russian army ordered the authorities to surrender the town without resistance in order to limit the losses.

​

Spoiler

In the rear of the Russian advance, the towns of Sumy and Kharkov were surrounded and Zelensky's pro-NATO units were trapped.

Fighting took place for the conquest of Sumy.



In Kharkov, the city is surrounded by Russian forces.

The violence there is greater than in other sectors of the front because Azov elements have taken political control of the city.

An orderly surrender is therefore not on the agenda. To aggravate the situation, Azov elements spread snipers over residential areas.

Spoiler

Spoiler

Spoiler

Russian army paratroopers have just arrived on site.



However, some evacuations are taking place, such as here of foreign students who were previously trapped in the fighting.

Spoiler

Eastern axis (Donbass)
Russian troops have broken through deep into the Donbass front. They are moving towards Kupiansk in the north to link up with the Kharkov front.

Ukrainian troops on the Donbass front could be surrounded and destroyed if the troops from Crimea join up with those from Kharkov.



Southern axis (Odessa - Dnepro - Marioupol)

Movement towards Zaporizhia (North)
Russian troops approach Enerhodar where the largest nuclear power plant in Europe is located. Once conquered by the Russian army, the electricity supply to southern Ukraine will be controlled by Russia.

Spoiler

Movement towards the Donbass (East)
The junction between the Russian forces from Crimea and the forces of the pro-Russian republics of Donetsk and Luhansk took place yesterday.

The port of Mariupol is now surrounded and the besieged Zelensky units are gradually being neutralised. The capture of the city could take some time.



Movement towards Odessa (West)
The town of Kherson, on the road to Odessa, had been surrounded for two days by the Russian army.

It quickly surrendered.

Destruction was very limited and the pro-NATO units surrendered after fairly quick negotiations.



A video of the clashes for the control of the city bridge, towards Odessa.

Spoiler

The town of Mykolaiev is the last stop before the strategic Black Sea port of Odessa.

Fighting is reported to the north of the city, notably in Bashtanka.



The Russian army appears to be manoeuvring to cut off all routes into the city.

An assault by Russian airborne troops on the city's airport is reported.



The gateway to Odessa will soon be open.

The city's airport has been the target of Russian fire. This could herald an airborne operation in the city along the lines of what happened in Mykolaiv today.

The Russian invasion should have just been blasting "All The Things She Said" by TATU 24/7 into Ukraine. No munitions fired or bombs dropped. Just tanks rolling in blasting that and soldiers with boomboxes.

 

[MG-34]

The VDV doesn't want you to know this but the BMDs are free. Azov Battalion currently has 321 BMDs.

 

[Logoden]

Supposed World Power destroys less then a combined 10,000 things which include basic troops in 7 day invasion on weak country founded 30 years ago. Fucking sad... The French would kick Russias ass.

LMAO. The actual french army ? The today's one ? What a fucking joke, they do not even have enough ammos to sustaine a one-on-one conflict with russia for two weeks(the ammo stock is a bit less than two weeks). They do not even have enough bullet-proof vest for every soldier on the ground. Thats the pitiful state in which our army is last I checked. And that is just the tip of the iceberg.

I do not doubt some are well trained and excellent soldier, but be a bit more coherant and do your fucking research next time, preferably IN FRENCH(a lot of information in France seems to have difficulties getting out of the country).

Also for all the idiots drooling on an intervention of the French army, we have enought potential civil trouble here(Métropole et Outre-Mer) without the need to send troops and logisticals help to slavic fags. Hell the money that would go for Ukraine should probably be for the French first and not for some delirious intervention.

Oh and El Presidente Macron is going to do one of HIS famous speeches in the evening. May be he will be the madlad who will throw us into WW3(He probably would like it and he is probably mad/foolish enough to do so, he is the son of Jupiter after all) https://actu17.fr/international/gue...ra-ce-mercredi-a-20h-dans-une-allocution.html

The broad specturm of the people on the planet are Facebook, Reddit, and Twitter. are you sure you want to be associated with them?

100% Anyone with good sense would rather be a barbarian if the tranny jannies of Reddit and Faecesbook are arbiters of civilisation.

The problem is Ukraine and now America have backed them up against a wall. Ukraine threatening high treason charges for any mayor surrendering their town/city to Russia and America threatening personal sanctions against any that run the place after Russia has taken over.

Their options are basically stand, fight and get half their population killed (the imagry that kiev wants to put out to the world) or abdicate all responsibility for the place and leave (though no doubt they'll still be slapped with some nonsense for that).

Damn son, what's happening there back in baguette-land? Last I heard there were some protests (solidarity with the Canadian honking), but nothing too serious.

They likely do detect it, but chose which bots they ax and which ones get left alone.
