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.

Clinton’s loss was due to Electoral College wins. Probably a failure to properly evaluate that factor and campaign where it would give her the best EC results. I doubt that Stein’s candidacy had anything to do with the EC results.
The scatter off the metal of the bridge must be overwhelming.
Looking it the 8/28 Russian losses, I thought I noticed a slightly different pattern. I went back over the previous 100 comments to check loss charts listed recently. It seems there is a reduction in both human losses and land crafts lost, however, an increase in drones used. It will be interesting to see if this becomes a new pattern which could indicate withdrawal of some Russian resources to move to Kursk.
A statistic I saw posted a while ago indicated that over 80 or 90% of residents in Kursk, Bryansk, and Belgorod would prefer to be part of Ukraine. If Russian troops continue to trash main streets of their villages to steal everything, and loot private homes (Chechin troops accused of this), it will not help Putin’s popularity. It will be interesting to see what further steps Ukraine may take with regard to all 3 oblasts. No doubt Putin is also unhappy thinking about such possibilities.
Drones ranged further into Russia last night.
“Ukrainian drones operated by military intelligence (HUR) attacked the Zenit oil depot in Russia’s Kirov Oblast on Aug. 28, a HUR source confirmed for the Kyiv Independent.
The attack caused a fire at two oil tanks, the source said, confirming that this is the first drone attack on a Russian facility in Kirov Oblast.
According to Kirov Oblast Governor Alexander Sokolov, Russian air defenses shot down two drones while three others “fell” and started a fire near the Zenit oil facility in the town of Kotelnich. No casualties or damages were reported.
“The target is located more than 1,200 kilometers (745 miles) away from Ukraine’s border. The Zenit oil depot is a facility of the enemy military-industrial complex and provides fuel to the Russian occupation forces,” the source said.”
(From the Kyiv Independent)
Sabotage activities like this, plus the very large complete losses of fuel could also explain the reduction in use of land fighting equipment I have noticed. Then again, with these losses, fuel will be even more important for moving troops from the Ukraine fighting area to the Kursk area.
Russia’s Kazan airport suspends flights due to drone threat, media reports (Kyiv Independent)
“Russia’s Kazan International Airport has suspended flights due to the threat of drones, Russian media reported on Aug. 28.
The Kremlin’s Federal Air Transport Agency said restrictions were introduced at 7 a.m. Moscow time “to ensure flight safety,” with planes being redirected to an airfield in Samara…
…Kazan – lying over 900 kilometers (560 miles) east of the Ukrainian border – is located in the Russian republic of Tatarstan.”
…”attacks on oil depots affect fuel supplies to troops. However, they noticed that not only fuel is burned out, but infrastructure is also destroyed.
And its restoration will require not only funds, but also time. Which can create problems in the conditions of the Northern Military District.”
It certainly appears that fuel supply infrastructure to the Russian Military forces operating in the Ukrainian theater (Land and Air), is being systematically targeted.
That is something that is normally part of an Operation Plan, to set conditions ahead of the phase of decisive combat operations.
These strikes on the fuel infrastructure supporting Russia’s forces in the field are likely designed to build to achieve some effect, rather than just random targets of opportunity. Ukraine has to budget its assets and pick its shots.
“a new railway line… connects Rostov-on-Don with Mariupol.”
That needs killing.

Is this the start of another 10 day fire?
Also, Pantsir-S1 is a short range, point defense system.
A perfect target for F-16s carrying HARMs.
I wonder how much damage is done to the operational capability of the facility, when a petroleum storage tank burns for a few days like that.
Does a sustained fire destroy critical shared infrastructure, or is each tank significantly independent of the others?
Clearly operations must be curtailed or suspended while the fires are burning, but how much is capacity degraded, after 10% of the tanks are completely burned? (Russian facilities are probably somewhat different from American)

In the Belgorod region, 12 conscripts died in one day. Who is framing Putin and why?
Dmitry Peskov’s attempt to refute the data about sending conscripts to the Kursk region [ https://t.me/bbbreaking/188939 ], led us to several thoughts that we want to share.
Firstly, conscripts continue to be sent to regions bordering Ukraine. And not only in the Kursk region, but also in Belgorod and Bryansk.
“This is objective, the enemy is opening new directions of the front, and there are not enough people everywhere. Well, no one is hiding sending conscripts to participate in hostilities anymore; Apti Alaudinov himself spoke directly about this,” explained our source in the Ministry of Defense [ https://t.me/AptiAlaudinovAKHMAT/5337 ].
Secondly, conscripts, unfortunately, die at the front. Thus, according to updated data, during a clash with the enemy on the border in the Belgorod region on Tuesday [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/4574 ], August 27, 12 conscripts were killed. This is a war, and, unfortunately, it is not only the Ukrainian Armed Forces that are suffering losses.
Thirdly, we do not understand the meaning of Peskov’s statement. If this is an attempt to help Vladimir Putin, then it turned out badly. The President was only further framed by such an outright lie. But things could be much worse.
“Peskov has been saying a lot of strange things lately. As if his task is to harm Vladimir Vladimirovich, to make him look incompetent, to show that Vladimir Vladimirovich has allegedly lost control of the situation. In the Kursk region and not only. I have suspicions that Russia’s enemies are influencing Dmitry Sergeevich,” a source close to Putin told us.
According to him, the situation is complicated by the fact that the President trusts Peskov and blocks any attempts to investigate the activities of his press secretary.
By the way, Peskov himself, when asked to comment on the situation, replied: “There are almost no conscripts in the Kursk region anymore. Stop provocations!”
Genocide is an ugly business. Yet still Ukraine is Ukraine after over two years of genocidal invasion by mass murdering Russian Nazis. No amount of gaslighting will ever change that simple truth.

The “Marinovka” airbase has recently received a visit from effective Ukrainian drones. The location of the airbase is near the settlement of Oktyabrsky in the Volgograd region. The footage was captured from the coordinates 48.657625, 43.818165, offering a clear view of the area and the impact of the strike.
Recent satellite images of the aftermath of yesterday’s strike on the “Marinivka” airfield speak for themselves. The images clearly show several completely destroyed hangars, with at least one Su-34 aircraft destroyed and another severely damaged.
Additionally, there is visible evidence of extensive scorched grass surrounding the area. Preliminary reports indicate that an aviation ammunition storage facility, containing bombs, missiles, and other ordnance, was also destroyed. The exact location of the strike is pinpointed at coordinates 48.642115, 43.797024.
Also, the aftermath of the strike on an ammunition depot located in a forested area 6 kilometers from the city of Ostrogozhsk in the Voronezh region reveals significant destruction. The explosion caused by the strike resulted in the complete devastation of the storage facility, with debris scattered across the surrounding area. The force of the blast also damaged nearby vegetation, leaving a noticeable impact on the forested landscape.
Photographs from the ground have surfaced, showing the interior of each hangar containing Russian Su-34 fighter jets. The enemy has revealed the aftermath of the strike, highlighting the use of tungsten pellets. The images clearly display how the hangars were penetrated, causing significant damage to the aircraft inside. The precision and impact of the strike are evident in the visible destruction within the facility.
It is almost impossible to guess the damage to the underground pipes (shared infrastructure).
However, I believe the sustained fires are caused by the drones hitting the tanks near the bottom and not the top.
The fuel burns between the tanks and the heat then causes nearby tanks to burst & catch fire.
All the above is guesswork.
Respectfully disagree, like all elections over the past at least 4 presidential elections, the EC was determined not by who won the popular vote, hitlary won that, but the votes in the aptly named swing states.
Without checking I would guess that all elections were won not by millions, but by thousand votes in these states.
Out of 10s of millions votes it comes down to thousands in each state. I believe Georgia by 12, Penn by 80k, Arizona by 10
When you are dealing with fraud a little goes a long way when portioned properly
I;m not sure with what you disagree. I stated she lost because of the Electoral College vote. You mention she lost by relatively few votes in several states. If her team had evaluated potential results better, they could have spent some more time and money in those states, which could have changed the final EC vote.
