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.

12 Storm Shadows!
Perhaps 12 missiles were needed to penetrate the underground bunker.
I believe UKF only used 4 or 5 Storm Shadows to take out Sokolov.
I wonder who gets to call tiny kim.
Cruise missile launches by 7 Tu-95’s. Putin mad because of Kursk decapitation strike.

The nork generals were probably under orders to report back to kim on a daily basis.
I would not be surprised if the comm leak was "accomplished" by South Korea who then sent the information to the Pentagon.

[ Brutal Defeat. Russians Arrest All Generals. Siversk Offensive Ended ]
—
Today [ Nov 20 ], there is a lot of news from the Siversk direction.
Here, under mounting pressure to achieve promised results, Russian commanders launched a desperate final wave of armored vehicles to breach the Ukrainian stronghold around Ivano-Darivka. However, this move ended in such a disaster, that the Russian generals were arrested and the whole Russian Siversk offensive was completely canceled.
After initial Russian attempts to storm the Ukrainian defensive positions on the hill ridge above Ivano-Darivka from the south led to heavy losses, Russian forces changed the vector of their attack to the north-east of the village, using the Lysychansk Oil Refinery as an operational base to gather forces, but again with no success.
This renewed failure caused a backlash in Russian media, with prominent military analysts putting local commanders under heavy criticism and requesting their dismissal.
With everything on the line, the responsible Russian command staff in the region launched another wave of assaults in a desperate attempt to achieve some results, save their public image, and rescue their military careers.
The new assault wave consisted of a turtle tank, multiple tanks equipped with smaller cages against FPV drones, and multiple infantry fighting vehicles. These vehicles used again the dirt road from the oil refinery to reach Ukrainian positions quickly, shortening reaction time for the defenders.
Drone operators from the 4th Rapid Reaction Brigade Rubizh of the National Guard of Ukraine have released a video showcasing the strength and preparedness of their regional defenses. The footage emphasizes the critical role of early detection in successfully repelling enemy assaults.
Typically, drone reconnaissance units conduct continuous day and night surveillance across every sector of the frontline. This persistent monitoring prevents surprise attacks and ensures swift, decisive reactions, an essential factor in maintaining effective defense.
Leading the Russian column was a heavily fortified “turtle tank,” outfitted with solid metal plating, additional protective cages, and electronic warfare systems, all designed to ensure its progress to breach Ukrainian defenses.
Images reveal the moment a Ukrainian FPV drone struck the tank; despite being shrouded in smoke from the explosion, it pressed onward. The footage then shifts to the perspective of a kamikaze drone, bypassing the next tank in the column to focus on targeting the third vehicle. This tactic aimed to maximize disruption and chaos within the Russian assault group, effectively hindering their advance.
The turtle tank and the second tank pressed forward alone, leaving the rest of the convoy behind. Ukrainian drone operators quickly deployed additional FPV drones, inflicting further damage on the turtle tank and eventually bringing it to a halt.
This forced the crew of the second tank to change direction, turning it sideways - a risky maneuver that soon proved disastrous as Ukrainian forces enhanced the dense minefields in the area. As a result, the second tank struck a mine and erupted in a spectacular explosion. Moments later, another tank advancing from the rear met a similar fate, exploding after being hit by a drone strike.
The Ukrainians then focused on the rear of the column, launching simultaneous drone strikes that highlighted their operators’ skill and the Russian convoy’s unpreparedness. In the video’s final moments, they showcased the destruction of the remaining enemy vehicles, including the abandoned turtle tank.
Following this 3rd major setback, outcries from Russian military bloggers grew so intense that the Russian Ministry of Defense was compelled to arrest and remove several high-ranking officers within the 3rd Combined Arms Army overseeing this sector of the frontline. Among those dismissed were the army’s commander, the chief of staff, and the commander of the 7th Motorized Rifle Brigade.
They were charged with submitting false reports to their superiors and orchestrating poorly conceived assaults near Siversk. This series of failures resulted in 100s of Russian casualties, with many wounded soldiers dying on the battlefield without evacuation, while Ukrainian strongholds remained intact and their defenders with no losses.
Sources within the Russian military revealed that authorities also removed the commanders of several unnamed battalions and are investigating the 6th and 123rd Motorized Rifle Brigades of the same army group for concealing losses and misrepresenting the situation in this sector. Interestingly, the Russian military command initially ignored the outcry from analysts and bloggers.
Acting on reports from local commanders, they visited a settlement in the region, believing it had already been captured by Russian forces - only to discover this was not the case. To cover up their mistake, the officers on the ground staged interviews with war correspondents to back up their false reports. This only fueled further outrage among high commands once the deception came to light.
Overall, Ukrainian defenders near Siversk have once again demonstrated the strength and effectiveness of their well-structured, multi-layered defense by destroying another Russian assault group. The heavy losses in the region have steadily increased tension within the Russian military command, which had already begun suspecting local officers of falsifying reports.
With the latest wave of assaults, coupled with the arrest and removal of commanders from the 3rd Combined Arms Army, Russian forces and their command structure are now in disarray, and the Siversk offensive suspended. This turmoil offers Ukrainian forces a great opportunity to strengthen their defenses, improving their position for the near future.

With precise planning, they stealthily approached Russian lines, eliminated a Russian unit commander and deputy, and captured three more infantrymen.

Well cared for just a little rust here an there. Today those well cared for Nukes have had even more care so they have accumulated still more rust.
Very reliable system ...
this is a huge reach to employ a nuclear (capable) rocket that russia does not have many of that is hugely expensive.
this is NOT something that a winning country does.

According to the link above, the missile payload is 800kg.
It would probably fall on Belgorod instead of striking Kyiv.
Seen here, newly released drone footage of the raid showing numerous cruise missiles slamming into the Russian complex.

“”””Are there lessons here for America? We have labor problems because we decided everyone should go to college and most schools have dropped vocational education as part of the scholastic offering. When I need construction work done on property I own, it is easiest to find a willing Hispanic worker.””””
Americans didn’t willingly abandon those great construction jobs and you don’t need much vocational training since so much blue collar work is learned as helpers and on the job, the people hiring illegals and the companies that hire them drove them out, which resulted in shoddy work and low prestige and pride in those fields.
Once a company or restaurant, or machine shop or industry started hiring illegals then the Americans would face a hostile work place and a new bottom pay scale.
These are being sent to protect paranoid Putin's Kerch bridge.

Under Putin, the Russian health service is already crumbling, so hundreds of thousands of wounded soldiers will only add fuel to the decay.

Those wounded who have been lucky enough to have been removed from the battlefield. Most are not, and are left to die.
