Russian Troops Underfunded, Equipment Sub-par-Fox News by Vixlot: 9:34pm On Feb 27, 2022 |
The Russian effort to invade Ukraine appears to have been underfunded and under-equipped to handle the swift takeover that Russian President Vladimir Putin was hoping for. Russia is "increasingly frustrated" by the lack of momentum in the invasion, particularly in the north of the country, a U.S. official said Saturday. Despite the months of planning and preparation, Russia has yet to achieve air superiority, and Ukraine retains command and control. And a senior U.S. defense official told Fox News correspondent Jennifer Griffin that the Russian military is not moving or fighting at night: Most movement starts just before dawn and occurs during the day because they don’t have night vision and are not trained in night vision, which contributed to slower than expected progress. Part of the issue may be that the Russian troops are conscripts, not highly trained. Many don’t know why they are there, according to the Soldiers’ Mother Committee. Several days before the invasion, Russian women began posting on social media that their sons, completing mandatory military service in the Russian army, had been sent to the Ukrainian border and, subsequently, had gone silent. The Land Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported that Russian troops stopped in Konotop to search for food and fuel after heavy fighting Friday night. The statement advised that locals could supply fuel and sugar but did not provide specific recommendations. Locals claimed that Russian soldiers tried to buy lard and moonshine "for any money," according to Ukrainian news agency UNIAN. The soldiers reportedly said they had no idea where they were, but they were "going to Kyiv." A video posted by Dutch news outlet Bellingcat executive director Christo Grozev showed a Ukrainian soldier investigating what appears to be an outdated Russian tank used in the invasion. "This Russian --- is more dilapidated than our own equipment," someone says during the video. https://www.foxnews.com/world/ukraine-russian-troops-underfunded-equipment-subpar 1 Like 1 Share

Nairaland claims only 10% of the Russian army is being used. Why isn’t Putin activating the other 90% instead of calling in Belarus for troops? Because this is the best that his military has to offer. If he had better, he would’ve sent them by now No Nightvision? No Nightvision training? EASTERN media featured pictures and videos of Russian soldiers looting Ukrainian food stores. They complained of being hungry and underfed by their leaders. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Underfunded according to Western Media but very motivated to do the bidding of their Master Putin. Western Media should know that Ukraine is not seeking help through propaganda and sanctions alone from the West. More than anything, Ukraine needs military presence of forces from the West to fight their aggressor. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Day 4, almost 90 hours , they have not been able to achieve anything except bombing and bombing. Face to face they have been defeated by Ukraine forces on the ground. They cannot hold onto cities. They are now begging for troops. Some useless Nigeria praise singers for the past three days have been singing... Russian Forces are now in Kyiv...there are now is Kyiv as if they are the information Ministers for Putin. Putin disgraced Russia If NATO members are nvolved, they will finish Russian soldiers in one day. I think the end is coming for Putin and Russia. No more respect. God Bless Ukraine Forces for showing the world that mordern day warfare is not about weapons but resistance. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Snitch24: Russia wants to be dirty but they can’t because they don’t have sh*t to be dirty with! They don’t have the tools to level Ukraine. You people said Ukraine would be done by Sunday. Sunday is nearly over and Ukraine still stands. You people praised his army but all we’ve seen were rust buckets. Why doesn’t RUSSIAN MEDIA show pictures of the shiny new tanks and equipment they supposedly have? |

Investigative: Show us Eastern Media featuring a strong army and modern equipment to combat what you say is Western Propaganda. You guys have spent months bragging on Russia’s Army but seems they only have rusty, outdated dinosaurs to battle with. Where are the sophisticated jets and weapons you guys said Putin would unleash? Putin’s bluff was called, his country is broke and the world knows it. |

Hmmm The truth of the matter is, I think order giving to the Russian armies is to capture Kiev and get zelensky arrested. I watched one of the live broadcast by a local of khirkiev two tanks were busy shooting at theirselves while civilians were busy driving pass. These tanks waited for civilians to passed then continue their shelling. I won't lie, these war should be a lesson to many leaders across the world |
