It's Known in case you dont, US will decimate Russia in conventional war, There is No two ways about.

US that couldn't fight Iraq alone during the 1991 gulf war

US that couldn't even fight same Iraq alone during 2003 invasion.

US that ordinary ill equipped rice farmers routed out of Indochina region of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.

US should prove its overrated worth and start fighting alone. Russia is doing it alone in Ukraine and it is decimating the well eqipped Ukrainian military hard. When will U.S do it alone too?

Go and sleep and continue dreaming jare.

We can't and it's a fact. I never knew how important Russia is until this war. Drivers protested in the UK yesterday about the rising inflation and increase in fuel price.

Opolopoopolonio:
Pro-Putin luuunatics never fail to amaze me.

Russia's victories are pyrrhic.

Nevertheless, we know Ukraine have so far fought the Russians with inferior weapons in this Donbas battle. The West have been reluctant to arm Ukraine with similar weapons the Russians are using.
By the time Ukraine get long-range artillery et al, Russia will be chased out of the conquered territories.

Russia have suffered huge casualties all the same but have enough men and ammunition to replenish. Ukraine don't have such luxury.

The war is far from over. Only some battles have been lost.

Abeg. Go and sit down with this your usual rant.

Ukrainians have so far fought Russia with inferior weapons?

If Zelensky your fellow clown hear this sef e fit spit on your head

He has been asking for more powerful weapons and they keep sending him now it is long range weapons again.lols. Once they send him the long range artillery and Russia still crushes his forces then NATO will be tired of him and the war. Well, the clown can still request nuclear weapons sef. Someone that was begging NATO to enforce a No-fly zone over Ukraine.

I just pray they send him his long range artillery that is when the clown and NATO would know that Russia is not a country you can trifle with. Long range artillery won't save Zelensky. He better start preparing his escape route into poland.

Drenimarcus:
About the Patriot defense system, i watched in a week as the Houthis bombed Saudi Aramco 3 times. I dont know about the THAAD but Patriot is useless.

Even the THAAD. Cause saudi Arabia operated THAAD as at the time of the Aramco attack. So we have to question the effectiveness of these defence systems.

Simeonjoe1:
Man while it's understandable that civilian casualiities always occurs in confrontation. But you can't measure Russian level of devastation to that of the US. Do you see the effects of Russia war in Chenchen and that of Georgia. Russia largely really on unguided munitions and rocket barrage. In times of guided/smart munitions US has far more than Russia and they readily employ it in engagements despite its more expensive. But the way its employed its now the source of arguments, they can waste a single million dollars bomb just on few terrorists on a building or level an entire city block. Look at their actions against ISIS in Syria/Iraq during the height of the caliphate, can Russian sustain that amount of shorties even so with the different smart bombs US are using. It's recently Russian has started employing guided bombs in large part of its operation even so its still limited as the bulk of their munitions are unguided. Concerning Ukraine, they are many international watchers and you will even agree that Russia is restricting its self for a full blown devastating attack. If not you'll be seeing level of destruction as in Chechnya.

Patriot missiles has proven their effectiveness in recent times, no account did Isreal or even Saudi officials mention the patriot to be ineffective even as of late last year, Saudi officials are even pleading with the US and other regional power to help replenish their low missile number to show its been effective. An independent assessment even show that since 2015 patriot systems in the middle east has intercepted more than 150 different projectiles with an effectiveness greater than 90%. The report of the patriot being ineffective is usually the old ones that happens during the gulf War, mind you patriot is just new into service and its not better optimized for engaging cruise/ballistic missile but airbreathing target like aircraft. And in factoring out their effectiveness, experts greatly look at it abilities in destroying the missile warheads and not just in disrupting the missile flight. This assessment greatly diminished the effectiveness as some missiles engaged still have active warheads which can still be potentially dangerous. This is due to the engaging mechanism of the patriot missiles with uses proximity fuses instead of hit to kill technology then. Over the past years US have carried out various upgrades on the missile system, their radars, software upgaredes you have PAC 2GM, PAC 3 MAC, and latest PAAC4 that will rival s400 in terms of range. It's also good to note tagt that after the gulf War, the other subsequent conflict has seen the patriot performs exceedingly well in operation Iraqi free, even Isreal still uses the patriot for air defense and they've employ it in successive engagement during Gaza conflict, Saudi and other Arab countries also have successfully engagement.

In terms of usage, successful engagement and battlefield experience the patriot is far ahead of the s400 as we are yet to witness the s400 in action and even more so against ballistic/cruise missiles. But on paper the s400 is ticking all the boxes.

Patriot anti missile system that the Houthis compromised several times. Were there no Patriot system in Saudi arabia when the houthis flew their drones over saudi aramco facilities to bomb oil facilities in 2019. Even it shocked the world how it happened in spite of the air defence systems in Saudi.

Houthis have launched ballistic and cruise missiles that reached their tartgets like airports. Government buildings, residential buildings in Saudi. May be you weren't listening to news when those events happened.

"Ecclestone also repeated his criticisms of Mr Zelenskyy, claiming the Ukrainian president was after "publicity".

He added: "He's looking for a bit of publicity, nobody had ever heard of him before.

"Now he's talking to the press and the United States and everybody else."

Very apt. Honestly Zelensky has prioritised publicity over the lives of his people. What has he gained so far? Weapons is all he keeps asking for till now. SHM.

For those who care to know.- The development of the first Nuclear "atomic" bomb, that the US brags about, can be wholly attributed to "Nazi scientist" (who were granted amnesty) and USSR scientists that defected to the US.

The UK is hoping for same.

In addition, the Nazis built the first ballistic missile in history known as the V-2 by a scientist called Wehner Von Braun. America smuggled this scientist to help them built their first satellite and intermediate range ballistic missile.

When a black woman is richer and more popular than her husband, it always end in tears.


As a black man, pray for God's mercy and grace so that you will always be financially in charge of your marriage if not, you are on a very long thing


Stephanie Okereke's marriage has been largely successful because her husband is financially in charge. Same with Mercy Johnson.

Black women don't joke with money. Financial success is the number one quality black women look for in a man, when this quality is lacking, an average black woman will never appreciate any other good qualities of the man, she will then focus on the man's negative qualities to hold on to as a reason to seek out.

Omotola Jalade's marriage is working cos her husband is in good financial state.


So before you marry as a black man, make sure you have put your financial life in shape and have a sustainable means of legitimate income.


Money is the number one reason marriages crash. Followed by infidelity and lack of sexual compatibility

AldrichAmes:
Russia, China and North Korea have successfully tested hypersonic missiles. And Russia has used them in Ukraine.

However, the US & its trillion dollar military budget can’t get it right, even with all the scientists they stole from other countries, lol.

One thing about Russians is they know how to produce cost-effective weapons while U.S expensive weapons would dissapoint most times.

You people can now see why Boris Johnson wants Russian scientists badly.

He knows U.S does not have what it takes to help them with such technology.

leofab:
safe face? It took Russia almost three weeks to take that town; compared to how it took them only hours to close in on kiev few few months ago.. if you can’t see the progress then shame on you… by the end of the end of the year when all equipment must have arrived with proper training it might take and cost the Russians months to take a street…

What do you mean by all equipment. Lols.
Forget it dear Ukraine has gotten decent equipment from the west and the Russians keep destroying and capturing them and I don't think they are going to get the top equipments in U.S arsenal. Ukraine is gone. Zelensky will chose to be wise if he is opportuned to live again.

BritishNaija:
Leave them, They are currently living in their denial phases, Russia can not seize a city without blowing it up to be useles.

That kind of War strategy is only employed when you are frustrated and don't know how to go about attacking your enemies.

Your master Uncle sam bombed Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos back to the stone age during the vietnam war yet they didn't make any significant gain until the ill equipped rice peasants routed them out of Indochina region.

They bombed Koreans mercilessly during the Korean war. Bombed Baghdad. Ukraine is gone just accept the truth and move on with life. More missiles will still rain like brimstone.

Thieves want Russians to help them with missile/Rocket technology

As if Russian scientists came to his back yard to beg for UK visa. Weyrey PM

Appleyard:
No. He is winning in real life, so says the crazy Lamestream media covens and their brainwashed sheepies on Nairaland.

The comedian has started begging for advanced air defence systems now. Indirectly telling uncle SAM to ship THAAD and Patriot Missile defence systems to Ukraine.

Banners with the words ‘No to NATO, No to War, For Peace’ were held as thousands of people marched through the Spanish city.

Thousands of anti-NATO demonstrators rallied in Madrid on Sunday before a summit of the Western military alliance in the Spanish capital this week.

Demonstrators called for US-led NATO to be dissolved and for military bases maintained by the United States in Spain to be closed. Banners with the words “No to NATO, No to War, For Peace” were held as they marched through the city.

The Spanish government banned another rally planned for Wednesday, the first day of the NATO summit, on security grounds.

“Tanks yes, but of beer with tapas,” sang demonstrators, who claimed an increase in defence spending in Europe urged by NATO was a threat to peace.

“I am fed up [with] this business of arms and killing people. The solution they propose is more arms and wars and we always pay for it. So no NATO, no [army] bases, let the Americans go and leave us alone without wars and weapons,” said Concha Hoyos, a retired Madrid resident.

Organisers claimed 5,000 people joined the march, but authorities in Madrid put the number at 2,200.

A virtual fortress

NATO is expected to consider the bid, opposed by alliance member Turkey, for Finland and Sweden to join. The Nordic nations applied in the wake of the Russian assault on Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, who calls the war a special military operation, says it in part responds to the accession to NATO of other countries near post-Soviet Russia’s borders since the 1990s.

Madrid is set to be turned into a virtual fortress during the two-day summit. More than 10,000 police and other security forces will provide protection to the representatives of some 40 countries attending. An interior ministry spokesman said to date no specific threat has been identified.

The summit is being held in the shadow of the war in Ukraine and is expected to take decisions on strengthening NATO’s military and deterrence capacities.

Fall of city after weeks of street fighting transforms the battlefield in the east of Ukraine to Moscow’s advantage.


Russian forces have fully occupied Severodonetsk, the mayor of the eastern Ukrainian city said, confirming Ukraine’s biggest battlefield setback for more than a month after weeks of fighting to hold the strategic town and latest symbol of Ukrainian resistance.

Russian missiles also rained down on western, northern and southern parts of the country on Saturday as Europe’s biggest land conflict since World War II enters its fifth month.

The fall of Severodonetsk – once home to more than 100,000 people, and now reduced to a wasteland of rubble by Russian artillery – is Moscow’s biggest victory since capturing the port of Mariupol last month.

The fall of the city transforms the battlefield in the east of Ukraine where Moscow’s huge advantage in firepower had until now yielded only slow gains.

“The city is now under the full occupation of Russia,” the city’s Mayor Oleksandr Stryuk said on national television. He said anyone left behind could no longer reach Ukrainian-held territory, as the city was effectively cut off.

Russian Defence Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said Ukrainian attempt to turn the city’s Azot chemical plant into another centre of resistance had been thwarted.

“As a result of successful offensive operations, units of the people’s militia of the LPR [Luhansk People’s Republic], with the support of Russian troops … completely liberated the cities of Severodonetsk and Borivske,” he said.

‘Tactical regrouping’

The head of Ukraine’s military intelligence agency described the fall of the city as a means for Ukrainian forces to regroup from Severodonetsk to higher ground in neighbouring Lysychansk.

“The activities happening in the area of Severodonetsk are a tactical regrouping of our troops. This is a withdrawal to advantageous positions to obtain a tactical advantage,” said Kyrylo Budanov, head of Defence Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine.

“Russia is using the tactic … it used in Mariupol: wiping the city from the face of the earth,” he said.

“Given the conditions, holding the defence in the ruins and open fields is no longer possible. So the Ukrainian forces are leaving for higher ground to continue the defence operations.”

“Given the conditions, holding the defence in the ruins and open fields is no longer possible. So the Ukrainian forces are leaving for higher ground to continue the defence operations.”

Russia will now be hoping to press on and seize more ground on the opposite bank of the Siverskyi Donets river where Severodonetsk’s twin city Lysychansk is located.

Ukraine will also hope that the price Moscow paid to capture the ruins of Severodonetsk will leave Russia’s forces vulnerable to a counterattack in coming weeks.

Lysychansk and Severodonetsk have been the focal point of Russian offensives aimed at capturing all of eastern Ukraine’s Donbas region and destroying the Ukrainian military defending it – the most capable and battle-hardened segment of the country’s armed forces.

The two cities and surrounding areas are the last major pockets of Ukrainian resistance in Luhansk province, 95 percent of which is under Russian and local separatist control. Russians and separatist forces also control about half of Donetsk, the second province in the Donbas.

The capture of Severodonetsk is likely to be seen by Russia as vindication for its switch from its early, failed attempt at “lightning warfare” to a relentless, grinding offensive using massive artillery in the east.

The retreat from Severodonetsk also brings Moscow close to full control of Luhansk.

Al Jazeera’s Charles Stratford reporting from the capital Kyiv said the withdrawal from Severodonetsk leaves Ukrainian forces in control of just one remaining city in Luhansk.

“The big question now though is whether the Ukrainians can hold on to Luhansk. Having seemingly lost control of Severodonetsk, there is only one more city in the Luhansk region that the Ukrainian forces still control,” Stratford said.

“This is being described fundamentally as the, potentially, biggest defeat for Ukrainian forces since Mariupol last month,” he said.

Ukrainian officials said that they were pulling troops back from Severodonetsk to avoid being surrounded by the Russians, who had crossed the river in force in recent days and were advancing on Lysychansk on the opposite bank. Serhiy Haidai, governor of Luhansk, said Russian forces had attempted to enter and blockade Lysychansk.

Moscow says Luhansk and Donetsk, where it has backed uprisings since 2014, are independent countries, and has demanded Ukraine cede the entire territory of the two provinces to separatist administrations.

Missile strikes

Ukraine’s top general, Valeriy Zaluzhnyi, wrote on the Telegram app on Saturday that newly arrived, US-supplied advanced HIMARS rocket systems were now deployed and hitting targets in Russian-occupied parts of Ukraine.

Elsewhere in Ukraine, governors of western and northern regions reported multiple missile attacks, indicating that Russia was not limiting its assault to eastern territories.

“48 cruise missiles. At night. Throughout whole Ukraine,” Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak said on Twitter. “Russia is still trying to intimidate Ukraine, cause panic and make people be afraid.”

The governor of Lviv region in western Ukraine, Maxim Kozytskyi, said in a video posted online that six missiles were fired from the Black Sea at the Yavoriv base near the border with Poland. Four hit the target but two were destroyed.

In the north, Vitaliy Bunechko, governor of the Zhytomyr region, said strikes on a military target killed at least one soldier, adding that nearly 10 missiles had been intercepted and destroyed.

In the south, Oleksandr Senkevych, mayor of Mykolaiv near the Black Sea, said five cruise missiles hit the city and nearby areas on Saturday.

The number of casualties is being clarified and there was no independent confirmation of the various reports.

‘Belarus as a co-belligerent’

In another potentially significant development, Ukraine said it had come under “massive bombardment” early on Saturday morning from neighbouring Belarus, a Russian ally not officially involved in the conflict.

Twenty rockets “fired from the territory of Belarus and from the air” targeted the village of Desna in the northern Chernigiv region, Ukraine’s northern military command said. It said infrastructure was hit, but no casualties had yet been reported.

“Today’s strike is directly linked to Kremlin efforts to pull Belarus as a co-belligerent into the war in Ukraine,” the Ukrainian intelligence service said.

Ukraine’s air command also said Russian long-range Tu-22 bombers were deployed from Belarus for the first time. Belarus hosts Russian military units and was used as a staging ground before Russia invaded Ukraine in February, but its own troops have not yet crossed the border.

On Saturday afternoon, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Moscow would send Belarus missiles able to carry nuclear warheads within months.

“We will transfer to Belarus Iskander-M tactical missile systems, which can use ballistic or cruise missiles, in their conventional and nuclear versions,” he said, as he met his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko in Saint Petersburg.

Countries with poor human development indices should not have nukes. Nukes get can get to rogue hands.

They will be stationed there but the launch codes will be in the hands of the Russians likewise the nuclear chain of command and control belongs to Russia. That was what happened when the USSR placed nukes in Cuba during the crisis in 60's. Castro was not allowed to have the launch codes.
