Russia Ukraine Update Thread - part 2

a reply to: Cutepants

Power stations and civilian infrastructure. The whole point of the operation as it was then, was it seems to leave it all intact. Now the lights are going out. Russia's whole defensive strategy is Nukes. What would have been a regional policing exercise, subject to UN oversite and impartial investigation has been turned into something much darker, on purpose. It is obvious that NATO has upped the game, which means that Russia will have to as well. It depends on their resolve on how far they will take it. But it would mean a declaration of war, if the withdrawal of diplomats occurs we will know the answer.

Yep thanks for the article Paraphi and it makes sense for the outsourcing of components being sanctioned leading to Russia's blindness in orbit.

Can't get over how far Moscow has fallen behind in so many areas. When I was a youngster we were in awe of the Soviet Union and their immense war machine industrial complex which appeared super advanced and cutting edge. It really was cutting edge, fantastic planes, subs, space stations etc. Only thirty or forty years ago! Wowzers, how the world's changed in no time at all.

If you want even more evidence of that, look up lazerpigs video on the Moskva. Built at the height of the Soviet era (by Ukraine, of course) and a complete disaster in terms of maintenance. Apparently it was falling apart and most of the weapon systems - including defense - wasnt working. And if that was a flagship you got to wonder about the state of the rest of the navy...

Are you seriously supporting Russia using nukes?

Have you taken leave of your senses?!!!!


By the way, this is Putin's War.

a reply to: anonentity

And still people try to twist and turn everything into being NATO's fault and all part of some super secret NWO/WEF plot.

It isn't.
Its because Putin is a complete twat and has zero regard for human life and no consideration for anyone other than himself and those who support his dreams Greater Russia and his Great epithet.

Are other people exploiting the situation to further their own ends and agendas?
Quite possibly.

But none of it would have been possible without Putin ordering the invasion of Ukraine.

And Putin is not some WEF stooge......his motivations are one's of Russian expansionism and self-aggrandisement.

The U.S. surpassed russian military tech under Reagan in the 80s, which started becoming public in the 90s.

While russia still has a LOT of older weapons, they are hopelessly behind Western tech at this point.

Thanks the heads up MW so it was Reagan who took the race to the next level

100 % merka and it just amazing how the Ruskies haven't moved on in engineering since the 1980's. What happened, why did they go full on retard? when they have the biggest land on Planet Earth with all the resources this offers. Russian kit was meant to have been uplifted by Vlad, maybe it was all make believe after all like their flagship? Heck I even bought one of their Ratnik watches be it an unofficial Vostok new style invention

Certainly not but that is the way this is panning out. All around the week that Russia and China start trading in their own currencies. You actually think that this is about anything but the usual interventions, look at all the countries that have tried to escape the hegemony of the Dollar. They all get a big stick, then a puppet government. This time it might or might not work.I don't know if Putin is a WEF stooge, but to have a reset a world war would be a sure thing. An attack on the infrastructure is definitely an escalation.these guys do a good analysis. www.bitchute.com...

To quote Freud...

"Sometimes a cigar, is just a cigar"

Something very very very often forgotten by people in the CT community... there isnt some big dark secret something behind every corner of the world, every time any thing happens...

Sometimes its just some idiot who thought he'd invade a country for past glories and a World that finally got tired of his # and decided to back the little guy on mass.

Its just a Cigar this time im afraid.

ruZZia as ive said before, is a bratty toddler in the shape of a country, they've had their # kicked in and the first thing they do as always... is throw a tantrum and strike out at the vulnerable and innocent in retaliation, its not some escalation or grand plan by them... its just petty foot stomping.

I hope so too...

I virtually never agree with you, but on that hope, I will.

ruZZian state tv is breaking even more... the blame game is starting into full swing, compared to their state TV 'debates' at the start of the invasion the contrast is pretty shocking lol.

twitter.com...

Love how one guy threatens the other about the language he used over 'colonial war'... I mean that bit alone shows what kind of system and government ruZZia is functioning under, people here often complain and put forward that the US and western governments are like that, but ruZZia is knee deep in it.

12 September Update

Key Takeaways

* Ukrainian forces are continuing to make impactful gains in Kherson Oblast and are steadily degrading the morale and combat capabilities of Russian forces in this area.

* The Russian military command may be suspending the deployment of newly formed units to Ukraine due to recent Russian losses and overall degraded morale.

* Russian forces are failing to reinforce the new frontline following Ukrainian gains in eastern Kharkiv Oblast and are actively fleeing the area or redeploying to other axes.

* Ukrainian forces continued targeting Russian military assets and positions in Kherson Oblast, likely steadily degrading them.

* The Ukrainian recapture of Izyum has likely degraded Russian forces’ ability to conduct artillery strikes along the Izyum-Slovyansk highway.

* The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) announced the restoration of the second reserve power transmission line to the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP).

* Ukraine’s sweeping counteroffensive is damaging Russian administrative capabilities and driving Russian departures from occupied parts of Ukraine far behind the line of contact.

Spokesperson for Ukraine’s Southern Operational Command, Natalya Humenyuk, stated on September 12 that Russian forces located along the right bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson Oblast are attempting to negotiate for surrender under the auspices of international law.

BREAKING: Russia starts evacuating civilians from the border area in the Belgorod region.


Belgorod Region governor urges people in Zhuravlyovka, Nekhoteyevka villages to evacuate

Special military operation going well ?

Russian roulette ?


Russian soldiers treating ammunition just as you would expect from these masters of logistics

Sounds like ISW thinks russia had a pretty bad day.

Fox news / Tucker is doing Russian propaganda , and not even very clever.....


Tucker Carlson's top Russia-Ukraine war expert Douglas MacGregor, on Friday night: "This entire war may be over" soon, "right now things are going very, very badly" for the Ukrainians and they're "desperate


The " expert" that Fox news uses seems to be dumb

I wonder what they are up to there ?

Village after village in Belgorod, Russia is being evacuated

Probably just reacting to the fact that Ukraine now has M777 right on their lightly defended (defenseless) border.

I hope that's all anyway.
