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.

More knowing and willing lies, straight out of Russia. (Note the “.ru “ domain) Not just Russia, but that noxious subset of Russia within their Intelligence Services, dedicated to undermining the societies of the Free World.
Reposting the lies of the servants of evil.
Yet another confirmation of your total corruption, into a willing accomplice to the war crimes of the Putin regime.

Nuke everything. Start over.
Russian war blogger rumors saying Putin will declare war on Ukraine at midnight Moscow time. One hour from now.
Other Russian bloggers having a s***fit saying Putin will accept the 30 day ceasefire deal in his midnight press conference.
“Keir Starmer has issued an ultimatum to Russia, saying that Europe and the U.S. will jointly increase military aid to Ukraine unless Putin agrees to Trump’s 30-day-ceasefire.”
Also, the new sanctions are in play - Trump-style.
Europe, in coordination with the USA, are now “demanding” a Russian ceasefire. Sounds like Russia is set up to get hit with the Trump sanctions punch soon, if they refuse a ceasefire.
I don’t think that this war has much longer to run.
Kyiv Independent reports:
“Ukraine and its European allies are demanding that Russia agree to an unconditional 30-day ceasefire starting on May 12, President Volodymyr Zelensky said on May 10 during a press conference in Kyiv…
…”We (France, the U.K., Germany and Poland) agreed that a full and unconditional ceasefire must begin on Monday, May 12, for at least 30 days. We jointly demand this from Russia, and we know we are supported in this by the United States,” Zelensky said, as reported by a correspondent from European Pravda.
“The ceasefire must be comprehensive — in the air, at sea, and on land. Monitoring the ceasefire is entirely feasible in coordination with the United States. This is a realistic goal.”
Starmer also confirmed that Ukraine’s European allies would not ease any sanctions against Russia until a result had been achieved.
Ahead of the press conference, the five leaders held a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump. Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said the call was “productive,” adding that all allies are ready for a complete unconditional ceasefire on land, in the air, and at sea for at least 30 days, starting as early as Monday…
…Zelensky and European leaders said during the press conference that the threat of tougher sanctions could help not only to pressure Russia into agreeing to an unconditional ceasefire, but also serve as a deterrent against any potential ceasefire violations.
“If Russia refuses an unconditional and complete ceasefire, sanctions must be applied — strengthened sanctions against its energy sector and banking system,” Zelensky said.
Tusk confirmed that if Russia “takes the proposal lightly,” then it would be met with “a new wave of sanctions,” stressing that coordination with the U.S. was key to achieving an effective approach to peace talks.
Amid reported growing frustration with a lack of a peace deal, Trump called for an “unconditional” 30-day ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine on May 8, adding that “if the ceasefire is not respected, the U.S. and its partners will impose further sanctions (against Russia).””
Other Russia war bloggers saying Putin will reject the 30 Day Ceasefire but not declare war in his midnight press conference. Putin rumored to have had a tirade in a security council meeting after the Kyiv meeting ultimatum.
Security council meeting conflict:
Putin, Patrushev: no ceasefire, no fear of sanctions, mass bombing attack on Ukraine
Naryshkin, Belousov: accept ceasefire, use time to prepare for offensive

China is unhappy with rumors of Xi Jinping’s serious illness
After the parade and celebrations to mark the 80th anniversary of Victory, claims appeared on Telegram channels and then in the federal press that Chinese leader Xi Jinping was allegedly seriously ill. This caused a sharp reaction from Beijing.
The authors of the channel “Chinese Threat” noted that from time to time the leader of China involuntarily bows his head, which may indicate that he has suffered a stroke.
“The Chinese are monitoring the information field very carefully. We have already received a lot of questions and demands through diplomatic channels to remove materials about Xi Jinping’s illness,” a source in the Kremlin told us.
It should be noted that the health of world leaders is a very sensitive topic, often played on by conspiracy theorists. Enemies, for example, often spread rumors about Vladimir Putin’s illnesses, although the President himself rarely gets sick.

Regarding the negotiations
Friends, there are many different rumors about the negotiation process. All this is reinforced by statements from both sides. We have something to say about this, but not much - we were asked to do so by very high-ranking people in the Kremlin.
First, Trump’s people have indeed started the conversation in a tougher format. There are no details here, but it is expected that Witkoff will soon bring a US-approved negotiating sequence of steps to achieve peace.
Secondly, China’s role in the negotiation process has not yet been fully determined; Beijing is only just beginning to get involved. This will take some time.
Thirdly, direct negotiations between Kiev and Moscow are probably unavoidable (if we move towards peace). But there is another scenario - one of the parties withdraws from the negotiations. And here, by the way, even in the Kremlin there are individual hawks who advocate a tougher position and further offensive.
Fourthly, the army is preparing for the summer offensive campaign. In this regard, the Ministry of Defense has been tasked with not reducing the rate of recruitment of contract soldiers into the army.
That’s all we can say for now. We’ll be revealing more details when we can.
“Security council meeting conflict:”
Do it the easy way, or do it the hard way - but ultimately, the will have to do it.
Putin press conference delayed. Security council still split.
Putin will not take questions from reporters.
Foundation to battle “injustice” is a Russian organization, so to quote the usual PROPAGANDA lol
This from the country that has “liberated” 10s of thousands of Ukranian children
Glad I have a very busy life beyond helicoptering a thread just to annoy. Living rent free in his head gives me great joy 😂
