Russia Ukraine Update Thread - part 2

Russian mobilized troops use spokeman to adress the problems


IT BEGINS: Moscow's TASS news reports that mobilized troops in the Omsk region are electing spokesmen to complain about conditions and lack of pay. These are literally acts of mutiny and insubordination-- and don't bode well for the combat performance Putin’s newest troops.

Staring to look quite silly , abandoned mobilizers...


More and more videos appear with abandoned and useless mobilized. The chain of command has been lost, people have weapons in their hands that are not even listed as theirs. They say literally that they do not understand what is happening. This is coming to Ukraine… 🙃

As much as I enjoy making fun of russians...


That one is a Tanker's Helmet, it's only intended to protect against bumping head into solid steel inside a tank.

Soldiers surrenders in Kherson direction, with APC ...


The Russian Occupiers in the Kherson direction began to surrender together with military equipment Part one 1/1


Ukraine get more vehicles when the Russians deliver them...

They decided to go home and replace their own government instead of continuing to get slaughtered in a war they had no chance of winning.

I don't know if that video was staged, but even if so, that is amazing video.

a reply to: F2d5thCavv2



Yeeh never cant be sure if real or not .

a reply to: Kenzo

In 1917, Russia had Lenin.

50 years later, the West had Lennon

Now we're 50+ years beyond that.

Time for a change ?

5 October Update

Key Takeaways

* The Ukrainian counteroffensive that began in Kharkiv Oblast has not yet culminated and is actively pushing into Luhansk Oblast.

* Russian President Vladimir Putin took measures to assert full Russian control over the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP).

* Russian forces conducted the first strike on Kyiv Oblast since June with a Shahed-136 drone.

* The Head of the Chechen Republic, Ramzan Kadyrov, announced that Putin awarded him the rank of Colonel-General.

* Increasing domestic critiques of Russia’s “partial mobilization” are likely driving Putin to scapegoat the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) and specifically Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.

* Ukrainian troops likely consolidated positions and regrouped in northern Kherson Oblast after making major gains over in the last 48 hours.

* Russian sources reported Ukrainian offensive preparations northwest, west, and northeast of Kherson City.

* Russian forces continued ground attacks in Donetsk Oblast on October 5.

* Russian milbloggers continued to criticize the implementation of the Russian “partial mobilization” on October 5.

* Russian citizens who are economically disadvantaged and ethnic minority Russian communities continue to bear a disproportionate burden in mobilization rates and casualty rates according to investigative reports, suggesting that Russian authorities may be deliberately placing poor and minority Russian citizens in more dangerous positions than well-off or ethnic Russians.

* Russian President Vladimir Putin completed the final formality in the process for illegally annexing Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories on October 5.

This is the same abandoned group with subs


Russian mobiks, location unspecified, recording an address to the public, saying they were abandoned, they are all sick, they were given weapons which are not registered anywhere, they have to buy their food, and there are mentally unstable people among them.



Cant believe how disorganized their system is ....

a reply to: Kenzo

Look at the weather in that video and the dress of the men. Wherever they are, it has already gotten uncomfortably cool, maybe even cold. Living outside. Great way to get everyone sick, and then when they get sent somewhere, they'll infect everyone there as well.

It`s time da This time for real please , enough is enough.

a reply to: F2d5thCavv2



Yeeh and this is only start, real winter is coming with much colder weather . Many will get sick for sure.

Same surrender as earlyer, litle longer video


WATCH: Russian BMP-2 crew appears to surrender to Ukrainian forces and are taken as prisoners in the Kherson region.

Cant know is it staged thought...



This is same, but in this they say the crew get payout of around $250,000 for the surrendered BMP-2 .


Full 5:45 video of the Russian soldiers surrendering to Ukraine along with their BMP-2. Proud of the professionalism of the Ukrainian soldiers. If I'm not mistaken the crew will receive a hefty payout of around $250,000 for the surrendered BMP-2 as well.

3 crew members...so that`s $83333 for each ?
