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. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers 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 the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it is 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.

“Russian forces are still failing to fully capture Bakhmut, even after announcing its immediate fall 3 weeks ago.
It seems to them celebrating hundreds of losses per day and tens of thousands over months is a victory.
To them soldiers are an expendable resource.”
And Ukraine again cuts the water supply to Crimea - they will have to leave.
“There is a fire at an electrical substation in Belgorod. Preliminary reports suggest it was a UAV attack. “

“It seems Biden and his handlers don’t want the Kerch Bridge dropped.”
That is a big card to play, which could be a big help if they time it right (to support a major Operation).
If it is destroyed too soon, Russia will have time to restore supply by sea.
Insane woman. Her podcast partner, AZgeopolictics, and many of her regular guests like Jason Hinkle and Scott Ritter, are frequent "sources". Another favorite source, "Moon over Alabama" admits Donbas Devushka is one of HIS sources! What a tangled web of insanity.
Europe is wise to top up their storage for winter while prices are low. Storage is already well above historical average.

Of course they just doubled down on their anti-nuclear power policies. One step forward two steps back...
Douglas MacKinnon has been writing about the collapse of the USA for decades. If he lives long enough, he will be right.
Russia conquering Ukraine and expanding into Europe will bring that collapse sooner.
Your “source” for this provides zero evidence it was a Russian missile that hit that church.
-btw your “source” also posted multiple photos of Ukie POWs exchanged in time to celebrate Orthodox Easter.
Meanwhile, they’re burning Orthodox churches in Western Ukraine and arresting their priests...I wonder if the released POWs know the true nature of the regime they’re fighting for.
It’s been over a year, Russia has lost thousands of pieces of equipment 2000 tanks at the very least, pulling t-54s ww2 artillery and anti-tank guns out of storage, on their third mobilization lost half of what they initially took and after 10 months they still haven’t took bakmut. Yup ukrain is about to fall
Not sure if you are being serious or sarcastic but if you are serious then you are making the case for US involvement
Donbass Devushka is a problem for Tucker Carlson. Timing couldn’t be better.

The Russian city of Kursk seems to be under Ukrainian drone attack.
Striking critical infrastructure near the border will make life more difficult for the Russian Army.
Should have been “would”. Clearly Russia is not taking anything close to all of Ukraine, let alone expanding further into Europe. Was just pointing out that those pulling for Russia are pushing for our collapse.
“ 1/ Russia has lost over $1 billion worth of electronic warfare equipment in the war in Ukraine, according to the Molfar open source analysis group. The rate of destruction increased greatly in March 2023, possibly indicating an imminent offensive.”

“ According to available data, a massive counteroffensive by the Ukrainian Armed Forces is expected to begin in April, most likely at the end of the second part of the month”

Return of a senior (pro-Wagner) Russian General, who had been purged back in January. Another Russian Operational failure (the failed Winter Offensive), and another shuffling of the Commanders.

“ISW: Responsibility for Russian offensives likely shifting to Russian Airborne Forces.
The Institute for the Study of War said renewed involvement of Colonel General (3 Star) Mikhail Teplinsky, the commander of Russia’s Airborne Forces, may mean a reshuffling of its senior commanders.”
ISW’s RUSSIAN OFFENSIVE CAMPAIGN ASSESSMENT, APRIL 16, 2023:
“Key Takeaways
The Russian military command appears to be increasingly shifting responsibility for offensive operations in Ukraine to the Russian Airborne (VDV) troops.
News of Teplinsky’s reappointment suggests that the Russian MoD is seeking to work more closely with the Wagner Group in order to complete the capture of Bakhmut, despite obvious tensions between Prigozhin and the traditional MoD establishment.
Russian milbloggers seized on an opportunity to denigrate St. Petersburg Mayor Alexander Beglov in a manner that indicates that Wagner Group financier Yevgeny Prigozhin’s anti-Beglov campaign has permeated the Russian ultra-nationalist information space.
The Wagner Group returned 130 Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs) on April 16, suggesting that Wagner may have engaged in the exchange independent of the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD).
The Wagner Group may be attempting to force mobilized Russian personnel to sign contracts with Wagner, possibly in an effort to offset Wagner’s losses in Ukraine.
Russian forces conducted limited ground attacks south of Kreminna.
Russian forces continued ground attacks in and around Bakhmut and along the Avdiivka-Donetsk City line.
Russian forces reportedly intensified the rate of artillery strikes in southern Ukraine.
Russian mobilized personnel continue to publish public complaints against Russian commanders alleging mistreatment.
A Russian source stated that the Wagner Group is involved in the removal of Ukrainian children from Bakhmut.”
From your (Speedy's) link:
"When analyzing the information, we noticed an important trend: the largest number of EWS and radar systems were destroyed on the eve of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' counteroffensive operations in the Kyiv, Kharkiv and Kherson directions."
"March 2023: 34 (!) electronic warfare and radar systems of the Russian army were destroyed, which may indicate the preparation of the largest counter-offensive operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the full-scale invasion of terrorist Russia into Ukraine."
..."According to available data and forecasts, a massive counteroffensive by the Ukrainian Armed Forces is expected to begin in late April 2023. The data indicate that Ukraine is ready for the largest counteroffensive operation since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine." (Still time to stock up on popcorn) Prayers for all the Heroes participating. May God kindly protect them and guide their hands.
Today is the first I’ve heard of her, have people been depending on her as a source?
She was a source for Moon of Alabama, Scott Ritter and a bunch of others.
Interesting, I look forward to seeing the threads about her.
Forgot to ping you on #76 - indicators of Preparatory fires for the Counteroffensive:
“March 2023: 34 (!) electronic warfare and radar systems of the Russian army were destroyed, which may indicate the preparation of the largest counter-offensive operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the full-scale invasion of terrorist Russia into Ukraine.”
