Tens of Russian soldiers have died close to the front lines in eastern Ukraine after Kyiv attacked a training ground with U.S.-supplied HIMARS, according to a Ukrainian official and media reports.

Around 65 Russian soldiers were killed at the training ground near the village of Trudivske, Bratchuk said in a post on the Telegram messaging app. The Ukrainian military used two missiles in the strike, the BBC's Russian service reported on Tuesday, citing several anonymous sources.
Units of Russia's 39th Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade were stationed near Trudivske, Bratchuk said.

Bratchuk posted two videos he said showed the "consequences" of the HIMARS attack, showing what look to be dozens of bodies strewn across a field. Images appearing to show the same site have circulated widely across social media.

Several prominent Russian military bloggers referenced the alleged strike, with Rybar, an account with more than one million subscribers and links to Russia's Defense Ministry, describing the reported attack near Trudivske as a "tragic event."
"The issue of formations of personnel in zones where the enemy is conducting active reconnaissance and where crowded people can become targets for high-precision munitions remains relevant," another Russian military blogger with a significant following wrote on Tuesday. "I hope conclusions will be drawn."

A waste of a very expensive and acurate precision munition that America is paying for.
Why is this war forced to churn indecisively and indefinitely, like a meat grinder, with no end in sight?
Who can deny: "War is the health of the state."?
Are the eggs ok?
Tell Russia to leave Ukraine.
65 dead Ruzzians who won’t be used to threaten anyone else. Good riddance.
“The essential act of war is destruction, not necessarily of human lives, but of the products of human labour. War is a way of shattering to pieces, or pouring into the stratosphere, or sinking in the depths of the sea, materials which might otherwise be used to make the masses too comfortable, and hence, in the long run, too intelligent.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“Oceania had always been at war with Eastasia.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“...the object of waging a war is always to be in a better position in which to wage another war.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“The war, therefore if we judge it by the standards of previous wars, is merely an imposture. It is like the battles between certain ruminant animals whose horns are incapable of hurting one another. But though it is unreal it is not meaningless. It eats up the surplus of consumable goods, and it helps to preserve the special mental atmosphere that the hierarchical society needs. War, it will be seen, is now a purely internal affair. In the past, the ruling groups of all countries, although they might recognize their common interest and therefore limit the destructiveness of war, did fight against one another, and the victor always plundered the vanquished. In our own day they are not fighting against one another at all. The war is waged by each ruling group against its own subjects, and the object of the war is not to make or prevent conquests of territory, but to keep the structure of society intact. The very word “war,” therefore, has become misleading. It would probably be accurate to say that by becoming continuous war has ceased to exist. The peculiar pressure that is exerted on human beings between the Neolithic Age and the early twentieth century has disappeared and has been replaced by something quite different. The effect would be much the same if the three superstates, instead of fighting one another, should agree to live in perpetual peace, each inviolate within its own boundaries. For in that case each would still be a self-contained universe, freed forever from the sobering influence of external danger. A peace that was truly permanent would be the same as a permanent war. This—although the vast majority of Party members understand it only in a shallower sense—is the inner meaning of the Party slogan: WAR IS PEACE.”
― George Orwell, 1984

Tell Russia to leave Ukraine.
GOOD
.
Absolutely. Better dead over there than here...
Things seem to be looking as though Russia is telling Ukraine to get out of what is now Russia.
Amen to that!
Russia’s Federal Security Service has arrested a U.S.-Russian woman suspected of collecting money for the Ukrainian military, the law enforcement agency's press service announced Tuesday.

Have your handlers tell Russia what to do - what lame bullshit you have.
You FR-trolling paid deep state intelligence operators are in a much better position to have Brandon tell Russia what to do.
