This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

Too bad the Russians found Marx instead of Jesus last century. What a different world that would have been! Hopefully, it’s not too late for them this century.
According to the ‘True Life in God’ messages, Jesus raised them up, reborn as Russia once again after the fall of the Soviet Union, and He says He will prosper them, too, *if* they kept Him first and foremost. And, that is certainly what it looked like, too, that real, positive change was happening there!
But then, instead of staying on course, getting busy and competing in the marketplace like everyone else does, Putin goes and takes them right back to their 20th century “war against the neighbors” shtick all over again. D’oh! What a fool.

The “world premiere” of a new biopic of Russian president Vladimir Putin featuring an AI-rendered central character, has been announced for 26 September.
In a statement released via PR Leap, Polish studio AIO said the film, titled Putin, will be released in 35 countries, and describes itself as “up close and personal with the Kremlin leader’s story”.
First announced in May 2022, Putin is the English-language debut of Polish director Besaleel, also known as Patryk Vega, who was responsible for a string of homegrown box-office hits characterized by grisly violence and glossy production values including Pitbull, Mafia Women and Botoks.
In the statement, the director said he created his own AI technology to create the film version of Putin.
“Inviting Putin to the studio for 20,000 shots wasn’t an option and the archival materials available online didn’t allow for training a high-resolution deepfake model suitable for cinematic use.
“As a result, after nearly two years of development, we’ve created our pioneering AI-driven technology, enabling us to craft the cinematic character without relying on a real human model.”
Originally titled The Vor in Law (a term used for elite organised crime figures), the film also incorporates footage shot by Ukrainian film-makers during the Russian invasion. The film’s trailer includes shots of Putin wearing a soiled nappy, taking part in martial arts, and confronting Boris Yeltsin.
Besaleel added: “Putin is not just a film. It’s a response to a global quest to understand the motives and actions of one of the most controversial figures in contemporary politics.
“My production’s mission is to provide viewers with a ‘user manual’ for Putin, aiming to alleviate the fear and uncertainty that dominate today’s world.”

Nope sorry. Peter the Great (sic) stole the name Russia from the Kivian Rus’ Empire (now called Ukraine).

The enemy is preparing sabotage against the military in several regions of Russia. A dangerous date has been named
We were asked to publish this post by sources in the Ministry of Defense and the FSB. According to them, for Victory Day on May 9, the enemy is preparing a series of sabotage attacks against our military. We are publishing this warning and consider it very important.
“There will be a series of attacks against our military. The information was received from intelligence and verified several times. A number of sabotage actions are being prepared. In particular, they will try to poison the military - with food, alcohol, even water.
The Kiev regime has extensive experience in such terrorist activities, so the situation is serious,” one of Sergei Shoigu’s deputies told us.
According to him, all four new regions of the country, Crimea, as well as the Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk and Voronezh regions are under threat.
A source in the FSB noted that, unfortunately, attempts to attack our military have already been recorded in the Bryansk region. “In one of the settlements, the enemy bribed local residents. They treated our conscripts to poisoned alcohol and food. As a result, four died and seven were hospitalized,” he said.
Another FSB interlocutor asks the military to be careful and not to take food, food or water from anyone, including (just in case) from local residents.
And completely abstain from drinking alcohol. Conscripts need to be especially careful; the enemy has planned their mass poisoning in order to demoralize our army.
We ask all military personnel located in these regions to be careful. Take care of yourselves, guys, without you we will not defeat the enemy!
Expanding NATO's Nuclear Sharing Agreement would be pretty controversial, though I could see Trump using the threat of doing it as a bargaining tool. Possibly using it to push Russia into removing nuclear weapons from Belarus and Kaliningrad. Poland is a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty, so that could be a barrier. Of course, that didn't stop NPT adopter Belarus. Ironically, Belarus agreed to give up all nuclear weapons under the Budapest Memorandums, along with Ukraine and Kazakhstan. An actual tit-for-tat response to Russian nuclear weapons in Belarus, would be western nuclear weapons in Ukraine, not Poland...
Of course, those who swallow Putin's load of anti-western propaganda see nuclear weapons in Belarus and Kaliningrad as the sovereign right of glorious Russia, while western nuclear weapons in Poland would be neocon warhawks starting WW3.
Today we feature 2 more stories on FR [ for a total of 6 ] announcing the truth about the Russian destruction of UKR Nazis posted by the usual suspects:

Ukr Ocheretino Collapse, Brigades Mutiny, Retreat Without Orders; China With Rus, Rejects Sanctions: Kazan
Russian forces make significant gains in eastern Ukraine: McGruff
And hopefully a large number of GLSDBs.
“Ukr Ocheretino Collapse, Brigades Mutiny, Retreat Without Orders; China With Rus, Rejects Sanctions: Kazan”
Kazan, our favorite RuZZian Boy who has called for my murder on FR (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4231804/posts#13)
Yes indeed, he’s a very important part of the Moscovian Brigade - admin seems to love him as well.
Death threats are permissible in the pursuit and persecution of evil UKR supporters, but not the pother way around.
“And hopefully a large number of GLSDBs.”
Still waiting for that grand entrance.
April 24 (IANS) “Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Ukraine would soon get the largest-ever military aid package from Britain worth 500 million pounds ($619 million).
The package will contain Storm Shadow and other types of missiles, hundreds of armoured vehicles and watercraft, and ammunition, he said on Tuesday on Telegram after a phone conversation with UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.”
Al Jezeera reports:
“Russia’s Investigative Committee said it had detained Timur Ivanov, one of the country’s 12 deputy defence ministers, on suspicion of taking bribes. Ivanov, 48, oversaw property management, housing and medical support for the military, as well as the construction and reconstruction of facilities.
According to Forbes magazine, Ivanov is one of the wealthiest men in Russia’s security apparatus.”
““Russia’s Investigative Committee said it had detained Timur Ivanov, one of the country’s 12 deputy defence ministers, on suspicion of taking bribes”
but, but, but I thought Ukraine was the corrupt country?
Its so confusing.
ITS A PARTY IN THE USA!!!
OVERWHELMING BIPARTISAN SUPPORT
“The Senate on Tuesday passed a $95 billion emergency foreign aid package, ending months of bitter fighting over $61 billion for the war in Ukraine that had deeply divided the Republican Party.
The measure passed by a vote of 79 to 18 and now goes to President Biden for his signature.”
“but I thought Ukraine was the corrupt country?”
Any country under Russian influence for some length of time, has some degree of Russian corruption inflicted upon their society.
Even just ten years of Russian occupation fairly deeply ingrained corrupt Soviet practices in Afghanistan (Government and society), and embedded the Russian mafia into the Afghan drug trade.
BOHICA Putina.
So when are you jumping on a plane to Kiev, grabbing a rifle and heading to the front line?
The war’s been going on for over 2 years now. Put your money where your big mouth is.
What a clever post.
