russia is a country who don’t care about collateral damage… I guess the next time an armed robbers operates around your vicinity the army can move and shell the whole area and if they hit your loved ones in the process.. I hope you’d hail them.

Russia has been fighting Ukraine for more than a year. The civilian casualties (death) is less than 50k. Russia only started attacking Ukrainian infrastructure, when the Ukrainians attack the Crimea bridge.

The US on the other side killed 300k civilians in Iraq in less than 2 months. They started attacking civilian infrastructure from day one of the war.

So statistically, the Russia care about civilians more than the US. The difference is that the West are using the media against Russia.

...at least you could have added it took Ukraine + the WEST 8-years to prepare a CONFLICT which the Russians unpreparedly walked into. it just would have been very understandable had the Russians gotten overwhelmed and withdrew BUT for them to still stand victoriously speaks volume. And this their tactics of reducing it's human causalities is kinda amazing.

As for convincing anyOne, not worth it most times because most only sees what they want irrespective of it's truth or not

Thanks @bassdow

Most people don't know how it work. They don't know what fortification is, on the battlefield. I believe after the war, the truth about Russian capability will come out.

Wagner Crosses Bakhmutovka River on Saturday. Now they are threatening Bakhmut Center and AZOM plant. The result of the offensive in Bakhmut will determine whether Russia can seize the whole of Donetsk or not. If they take Bakhmut, be rest assured, be rest assured that Severkst, Kramatorsk and Slovyansk will fall eventually.

Never knew that Russia relies on little Iran for help .
Is their arm depot running low or what ?

Bullets, rockets and mortar shells are ammunitions for Russian Weapons. So the question is how can Iran supply Russia with ammunitions for weapons that they don't produce. For example, Iran does not produce AK-series gun. How will Iran supply Russia with bullets for their AK guns.

Russia uses Soviet/Russia weapons. The country that can supply the above ammunitions to Russia must have Soviet weapon in it inventory. In Fact it is only North Korea that is capable of doing that. NK has huge stock pile of Soviet weapons and munitions.

So since the Ukrainians kicked em outta Kiev Kharkov and other occupied towns they want on holiday?
Ogbeni can you for once imagine that long convoy of soldiers and weapons the dumb ass Russians marched towards Kiev that they try such nonsense with any any western nations do you know how many would have died like chickens?

You see that mistake shows how dumb they are, they are lucky Ukraine lacks airpower by now this war would be long over

So tell me how Iran has threaten Israel sovereignty just once when Israel has done it countless time against them?

Do you know the details of the 35km long convoy?

Hotice085:
Dying like chickens at the hands of Ukrainians, that useless Chechnya hooligans do you hear him running his lose mouth again?

If POOtin can change his General like housefly since the invasion begin what does your deep thinking tells you is going on at the battlefield?

Russian regular troops are almost not active at this time. They are resting. The Ukrainians are not launching any offensive any where, in Lugansk/Kharkiv direction, Kherson direction, Zaprophyzia direction. The main Russian troops are resting. They are waiting for a breakthrough in Bakhmut.

None of the information I posted above came from Russia. I used Kyiv Independent, ISW, Aljazeera e.t.c.

Criminals have been used in war and they will continue to be used. You can't tell me that there are able-bodied men in Ukraine prison just sleeping and eating. They are all at the frontline. This is not the first time. There is no war, that prisoners are not involved.

Nobody is using human wave tactics. The Ukrainians are not doing it. Likewise the Russians. It is unsustainable. The entire Wagner fighters are not more than 50k. In this modern day and age where military possess weapon of mass destruction. If you use human wave tactics, you can loose the entire 50k in days. It is just common sense. This is not WWW II where millions of soldiers are involve.

Bakhmut is a fortress. Taking it will involve huge casualties likewise defending it. Russia didn't attack the city head on. Attacking the city head on will likely produce unsustainable losses. So the Russians decide to go around the city from the north and the south. The troops at the city gate use enormous artilery shells to force the defenders to abandon their fortification gradually by killing them in the trenches and destroying the fortification. Each settlement the defenders evacuate, the attackers occupy it. This is why seizing the city is taking time. The Russians are not just throwing fighters to frontline to die. Because if they do that, they will loose them quickly and will be forced to use your main troops.

No Russian official has come to give anybody time table or talk about their intention. Sorovikin never talked about defeating Ukraine. He talked about stopping Ukraine from advancing, which he was able to do successfully. Analyst come on air to talk about what they feel Russia is planning or their next line of action. The Russians themselves only release daily report of the war and nothing more.

Rossified slowpoke so when the Russians soldiers were stealing washing machines, cutleries even pots of soups from Ukrainians after their towns were liberated na propaganda
You are a monkey 🐵🐒 that has been Rossified

Lol!

So what are they eating now that there is nothing to steal?

BidenDConquerer:
No..it's only mad people that say that.
Their minds have been corrupted by Western propaganda.
And when you look at the propaganda..the West isn't even putting in enough effort to make it believable yet a few people swallow it hook, line and sinker.

Lol

BidenDConquerer:
This one corruption (corrupted by propaganda) is beyond redemption
I'm referring to the moniker you mentioned.

Do you also believe that the Russians are not well equipped and not well trained? Do you believe that the Russians are armed with shovel too?

BidenDConquerer:
Not everyone is capable of doing that. Certainly not the moniker you mentioned.

Lol

BidenDConquerer:
It's not 1:1

I don't disagree with you. That is my assessment.

Hotice085:
So you support how the Russians are throwing ill-equiped, under trained men into war zones to go and get killed
Do you know mothers and wives are protesting how their sons and husband are giving just 4days training and then thrown into war fronts to go die like chicken

In Bakhmut while Ukrainian are wasting ammunitions, Russian are wasting human beings while they keep their elite force well equipped and battle free

How can a country Armed force be segregating her citizens, can you try such rubbish in any western Nations?

You are sending men to war with shovels, no shoes, bullets are you a normal being?

If the Wagner fighters are ill-equipped or untrained, it should show on the battlefield. Have ever asked yourself why the ill-equipped and untrained are taking settlements after settlements from the well trained and well equipped Ukrainian troops?

The reports are filled with lies. These same people told you that the Russians are not well equipped for winter. They talked about how thousands of Russian troops will die from cold. They also told you that the war will take a pause during this period. But what happened in the end. Russia intensify it attack and started gaining ground in Donetsk. These are the people that they said were not well equipped for the winter.

It is just common sense. We need to start thinking independently. It is not everything they throw at you that you accept. It is not a rocket science. 70% of the mobilized men have not even join the war. More than 200k of the 300k have been trained and trained. They are in reserve.

Regex:
UK will be the first sellout in the EU to restart their relationship with Russia.

I doubt, UK has invested too much in this war. Russia will never forget.

Iran is not threatening to strike Israel. It is Israel that is threatening to destroy Iran nuclear sites which Iran has made it clear that it will respond.

Israel has nuclear weapon and they don't want Iran to have.

TonySpike:
Dead orcs litter the fields of Bakhmut. Attrition rate is currently 5 dead Russians to 1 dead Ukrainian.

Your is a bit lower. Ukraine officials said it is 7:1. The war will be over one day and the truth will come out.

As long as the main Russian troops on the front line are intact and there are more than 200k troops in reserve (some are in Belarus, Kharkiv border e.t.c). Russia won't be affected compare to Ukraine. The Wagner may be paying a heavy price, but trust me, they are killing the Ukrainians too. My own assessment is that it is 1:1 because Russia has artillery & air support advantage.

The Chenchens and the main Russian troops are always ready to strike. The moment Bakhmut falls. They will swing into action and seize the two main cities (Kramatorsk and Slovyansk).

All the sabotage, espionage and killings Israel have carried out on Iran is enough for all out war between both, but why is Iran so Chicken 🐔🍗
Let Iran try such on Israel make we see, even China de run whenever dem hear USA na chicken Iran wan cough

DerrickzB and Kalistus01 where are you 4k boys?

Countries carry out espionage on each other. Sabotage and cyber attack has become norm. You don't just send more of your soldiers to death and waste tax payer because one person was killed by saboteurs or because your infrastructure was destroyed. The best thing you can do is to respond in kind, IF YOU CAN..

The US invaded Afghanistan because Osama Bin Laden blew up the world trade center. It turns out to be a disaster. It took them years before they could kill the man. In the process they wasted tax payers money and the soldiers that die, probably died for nothing. The lives of the soldiers would have been preserved, if they just send the CIA after the guy. The CIA can work with Pakistan and some anti-Taliban groups in Afganistan to track him down.

War guaranties more death and more money to be wasted. If it doesn't worth it, countries don't go for it.

No

It is not enough.

leofab:
mentioning talibans show how shallow your mentality is? How can u compare both conventional and guerrilla warfare ?

Well, the Taliban took their country back conventionally. They started by seizing territories outside the capital till they get to the capital. They actually engaged the US & Afghan forces. They were not hiding in the mountain and coming out to attack and go back into hidding-Guerila warfare. They regrouped, came out in large numbers and started seizing cities.

When they got to the capital, they successfully push the US and Afghan troops to the Afghan airport.

Russian style in Syria is destroy the enemy totally. If not for US and Turkish military bases. Russia and Syrian forces would have retaken the entire Syrian territory. The tactic was attack a major city. Surround the city and destroy the enemy totally.

The US was just forcing Taliban to leave cities when they invaded Afghanistan. They were using their heavy equipments (air and ground) to push the Taliban out of cities and not destroy them. They were wary of having heavy casualties. You don't push die hard militant group out of a city and you expect them not to come back. They were supposed to destroy them. Chasing the enemy out of cities will give you a quick victory. But it will become a problem in the future. Because they will always come back. Destroying them takes time, but it will permanently solve them problem. People hail the US troops when they quickly seize territories. But it has alway been the worst tactics ever. So the US failed woefully. There is not excuse.

Former France presidential candidate-La Pen once said he would work with Russia to end terrorism in France when she ran for the presidency the first time. Russia learnt a lot during the 1st & 2nd Chenchen war.

Slow and steady, Russia is getting the job done. 50% of Bakhmut has been captured already.

Masterviolence:
90% of the time reality is not acceptable to the wishful mind

Very true

WAGNER PMC FIGHTERS ARE 1.2km AWAY FROM THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING OF BAKHMUT


The chief of Russian mercenary group Wagner has said that his forces are close to the centre of the front-line city of Bakhmut.

In a video posted on messaging app Telegram on Saturday, Yevgeny Prigozhin is seen standing on the rooftop of a high-rise building in what he claims is Bakhmut.

“This is the building of the town administration, this is the centre of the town,” Prigozhin said in the video, pointing towards a building in the distance.

“It is one kilometre and 200 metres away,” said Prigozhin, who was clad in full military gear.

Al Jazeera was unable to verify the location where the footage was taken.

Speaking as artillery boomed in the background, Prigozhin said that the most important thing now was to receive more ammunition from the army and “move forward”. He said his forces needed 10,000 tonnes of ammunition each month for the battle.

Wagner has been spearheading offensives against cities in eastern Ukraine including Bakhmut, in what has become the longest and bloodiest fight of Russia’s year-long assault. Both sides have suffered heavy losses around Bakhmut.

This is Iran.

Hotice085:
Israel alone has been slicing Iran like bread and butter, and your dare to mention USA
You are a baby 🐥

Israel has been carrying out sabotage on Iran for years. But she is scared of starting a major war with the Islamic State.

Israel has been talking about attacking Iran's nuclear sites for years with it air force. Currently she uses it air power to attack Syria, Palestine and Lebanon at will, without any warning or threat. But this is not the case with Iran. Israel has been doing a lot of talking about striking Iran nuclear sites but no action.

The reason for this, is because Iran will retaliate. When that happen, people will realise Israel defense Systems are not invincible. No defense system is invincible.

Israel defense systems have not been tested. The Iron Dome has been shooting down cheap rocket made from recycled materials. The Hamas make their rocket from recycled materials. You can confirm this.

Kingsnairaland:
A year after the special Russian operation against NATO in Ukraine; Officially, the Russian army controls 84,630 square kilometers of the territory of Ukraine, equal to 14.02% of Ukraine. -

📌: The Ukrainian territory taken over by the Russian army in one year is equal to the territory of 4 European countries together: Belgium, Albania, Luxembourg and Montenegro.

The UAV is probably Lancet 3.

Bakhmut is just like Poposna. It is a fortress. Poposna was a fortress for the entire Lugansk. The same way Bakhmut is a fortress for the entire Donetsk. Have you ever wonder why the Ukrainians don't want to let go of the city? Zelensky said the week that if Russia take Bakhmut, it will be easy for them to seize other cities in Donetsk.

The Chenchens did a very good job in Poposna. After the fall of the city. The regular Russian forces took Severadonestsk and Lisichank within few weeks.

The same is about to play out here. Seizing a fortress is always a nightmare for any military. So to reduce the casualty on the side of Russia. They decided to use PMC Wagner fighters. Russian regular troops are almost not active in Ukraine right now. The moment Wagner seize Bakhmut, you will see them in action. It will be a free way to Kramatorsk and Slovyansk.

Russia is not in a hurry. It aim is to win the war and wreck Ukraine at the same. So the longer the war the better.

Whether it is the Russians that are being grinded in Bakhmut or the Ukrainians. It is not a problem for Russia, because it main forces are still intact.

The financial experts in IMF only make predictions. The prediction may happen and it may not. Never bank on it. It is just like a whether report.

Please look at my quote, did I mention Russia
Of course after the USA china, the next other country that is powerful in terms of military is Russia,
You made reference to Iran, been powerful the the USA is scared of confrontation with it, thence prompt my reply.

Your assumptions that the USA is shying away from confrontation with Russia is a big fat lie from the pit of hell,
The USA president Biden has always said that the USA will protect every itch of NATO territory, Russia hasn't attacked a Nato member country, if you want to see the USA in action ask your lord Putin to make the mistake and attack a Nato country

Also I am ashamed that you stated that the USA is leaving her country unprotected because ofvweapoms it giving to Ukraine, I will ask you to first research the amount the USA spends on it defense budget and also check the amount of military aid the USA gives countries yearly
So your childish assumptions of the USA been short of weapons is baseless, the USA still remains the biggest producers of weapons globally also she is the largest exporter of military arms defense companies like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, etc are the biggest private military defence contractors.

It not rocket science, that the Russian military is struggling to win the war in Ukraine, the signs are there to see, it's clear for the blind to see,
Since last year June last year Russia has taken only one town, the Ukrainian has taken kherson, layman kharviv from the Russians,
When last the Russian took a major town??
From buying cheap drones from Iran, to using the services of private military group aka Wagner the Russian military is facing at uphill task


I no you are not aware that the IMF said that the Russian economy contracted to a new record of 2.2% the highest of any country in the world..


NB, I am just check mating the ....... You wrote.
The original post I commented on you were comparing Iran to the USA, and also saying the USA Was losing relevance in the Middle East..
After I counter you, you brough Russia into the equation 😀😁😁

Kindly point out where I said the US running out of weapon. I said the West. It is not only the US that the supporting Ukraine. NATO countries and UK are also taking part.

I guess you put China ahead of Russia. May be in the future the Chinese will take the 2nd position. But currently Russia still occupy the 2nd position. The Chinese are yet to perfect making home made engine for fighter jet. They still rely on the weak Russia for jet engines. It was who help China to build it early warning system. The best defense systems in China today is S-400. Most of Chinese J-20 still run on Russia engines.Best helicopter gunship in China today is Ka-52. China is catching up fast and it will get there. But it is not there yet.

Military strength is judge not by war you fought. But based on your capability. The US failed to destroy Taliban in Afghanistan. But that doesn't mean the US is not great militarily.

UK Defense Ministry: Wagner mercenary group takes control of ‘most of eastern part’ of Bakhmut, Ukraine holds western part.

Kremlin-backed mercenary group Wagner forces have taken control of most of the eastern part of Bakhmut, according to the U.K. Defense Ministry’s daily intelligence update published on March 11, but they face a new challenge with the Bakhmutka River.

Keep deceiving yourself.
A general of the Islamic revolutionary amry was killed like a chicken, all the Iranian did were to shoot a couple of rockets at an airbase.
The same Iran that the Israeli intelligence mossad has be killing there scientists for years and carry out covert ops deep inside Iranian territory.

You are comparing the USA with Iran, you must be high on cheap drugs, when Iran is not even the biggest power in the Middle East

Be guided, don't mention Iran with the USA in the same sentence

It is a fact that the US has shown that it is not interested in any war at this time.

The Almighty US said she want to use this opportunity to weaken Russia military strength. Why do you need to weaken Russia if her military is not very strong as you claim? I guess your colonial masters know better than you.

Your colonial master are leaving their own country unprotected by shipping weapons in their stock that are not even enough for them to protect their own territories to Ukraine. At the same time, they have spent billions of dollar to make sure Russia is weakened and at the same time get it troops thrown out of Ukraine. So all this effort is against an ordinary gas station-Russia, as claimed by the West. Or a country that has a very weak military as claimed by you. It is common sense.
