Reminds me of the burglars who complain that the residents fought back.
The usuals, who complain about “zeepers” flooding FR with their propaganda and spam, sure seem obsessed with a thread that is not even posted daily.

According to Russian sources, General Anashkin provided false information to higher command, leading to significant losses for the Russian army in futile assaults near the settlement of Siversk. "Just recently, false reports came from Siversk about supposed successful breakthroughs, followed by poorly prepared column attacks on enemy positions, resulting in heavy losses and minimal gains."

Our “Jon” is probably a nice person, but his job is to write unsubstantiated claims. We have to accept that this is the case. We can probably have a few beers with him afterwards and he can tell us a lot of interesting stories.

He tells “interesting stories” now - how can we tell the difference afterward?
If his job pays in Rubles, he may have to look for a new one.

Russia did not technically use an ICBM with conventional warheads to attack Ukraine, but it remains a weapon that could emerge globally.

There have been several blog posts on x.com claiming 500 norks were killed in the Storm Shadow attack.
My guess is this is probably true.
Due to language difficulties and command & control the norks were being housed in large dormitory buildings.
Easy peasy.
Given Putin’s temper tantrum shortly after the strike, I believe it.
ATACMS strike on Russians and NORKs in Kursk just now.
1.) Increase interest rates so much that indebted Russians get into big trouble.
2.) Offer them overdue debt relief and signing bonuses as the only way out (just introduced).

I have seen several reports on the ATACMs launches.
However, due to OPSEC concerns, we probably won’t see any drone video until Monday or Tuesday.
Conventionally armed ICBMs/IRBMs are a very expensive way to deliver a relatively small amount of ordnance. Of course, the US has also developed a couple conventional hypersonic strike weapons, including one launched from submarines and surface ships. These are dangerous weapons to use against a nuclear power, as they can't be sure the attack is conventional.
**I have seen several reports on the ATACMs launches.**
And France just stated Ukraine can still use their SCALP missiles against targets inside Russia. It seems Putin’s bluff has been called.

Some of our subs are going back to some tactical nukes.
US Navy submarines to re-arm with nuclear cruise missiles after 3 decades
The SLCM-N would fulfill a critical role as a sea-based nuclear deterrent below the strategic level on the nuclear escalation ladder.

The missile strike was never about military strategy. It is just more fodder for the Kremlin’s dupes and fellow travelers to peddle to unsophisticated consumers of news. Putin’s Russia is weak and Potemkin. It can’t win on the battlefield and must use all its assets to undermine its opponents in the classical Bolshevik manner.
