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.

Calling someone a RuZZian on FR is considered an insult.
Calling someone a Comrade on FR is considered an insult.
Summarizing this war:
A tragedy for Ukraine.
A disaster for RuZZia.
A strategic win for the USA. The biggest winner of the war.
“More than three decades after Reagan left office, most Republicans still believe that America is a force for good.”
“Saturday morning brings news of another Ukrainian naval drone attack. This time on Russian tanker SIG, which is under US sanctions for aiding Syria, in Kerch Strait. Comes a day after an attack on Novorossiysk port and a Russian landing ship. If anyone thought that was a fluke…”

“Ukraine’s maritime authority issues a notice to mariners that all Russian Black Sea ports and approaches to them will be considered a “war risk area” as of [TODAY]. Gives more than two weeks for all commercial vessels trading with Russia to leave the Black Sea. “

“#Zaporizhzhia counter-offensive equipment loss numbers as of 04 August 2023. In summary: 311 UA losses vs. 299 RU losses “

“Destroyed RU Т-80BV somewhere in Donetsk region(supposedly)”

“Destroyed RU BMP in the settlement of Staromaiorske, Donetsk region.”

80k KIA + 3 times WIA = 320k. Nice if true.
“And real numbers are likely a lot higher - based on earlier statements by various NATO officials 80-90K Russian KIA would not surprise me.”
“Nearly 30k Russian KIA in Ukraine identified by @mediazzzona so far is already:
2x KIA in Soviet invasion of Afghanistan (1979-1989)
2x KIA in two Chechen wars (military + police + loyalist fighters)
4x of US KIA in both Afghanistan and Iraq war
Close to US KIA in Korean war”

“Bit of a long thread here. The Russian tanker hit overnight by a Ukrainian USV, Sig, was a prolific sanctions violator and a major lifeline for the Russian war effort in Syria.”

August 24th is Ukraine’s independence day.
We’re losing.
The real question-Who is China rooting for?
But that is not how Fred sees things in his rich fantasy world. He insists that the Russian army is weak and running out of ammunition and manpower reserves. Of course, he has no evidence to support this. He is like Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz clicking his ruby slippers together and repeating the mantra, “there is not a Russian army.” But no amount of wishful thinking can change the fact that Russia’s defense industry is churning out tanks, planes, artillery, ammunition and drones at an increasing level.
What astonishes me is Kagan’s complete disregard for the losses the Ukrainians are suffering. Even if the United States and NATO can continue to send tanks, artillery and ammunition to its beleaguered ally in Kiev, the number of trained Ukrainian personnel capable of operating these weapon systems effectively is diminishing rapidly, not increasing. Even if Ukraine manages to squeeze out one tactical victory, it does not have the resources in manpower and equipment to sustain that success. Ukraine’s army is in an irretrievable death spiral. Its fate is determined. It is just a matter of time.
“Visual evidence that Ukraine has expanded their bridgehead over the Konka river. AFU units managed to increase their presence eastwards towards Oleshky. Russian forces were seen targeting the Ukrainian controlled dacha’s.”
“Another doompost from Romanov, confirming the increased Ukrainian presence on the left bank. While also talking about Kozachi Laheri, which is way more east of Oleshky.
‘The situation is becoming very serious’.”

Kazan is the name of a city in RuZZia,
Is that where you live?
Ukraine is NEXT on the chi-com Belt and Road. Runs right through N. Ukraine. They have Afghanistan on the Euro outlet to ruzzia. The Han want russia and take Ukraine with it. Close partners and deadly enemies ever since vietnam’s Proxy war which our mil-industrial clowns managed for the oil interests that now have rights off the coast and inland, paying the Viet commie machine for them.
So it goes.
Nice video. Just warms the heart.
“Soldiers from the air reconnaissance unit of the 237th battalion (part of the 129th Kryvyi Rih Defense Brigade) found and destroyed a group of Russians that tried to get close to their positions near Avdiivka.”
https://twitter.com/NOELreports/status/1687821590388781056
“The guys fighting near Kupyansk experience difficult situations. Russia is attacking 24/7 with quite a significant force. Despite that, their equipment is being burned one by one. Just like in the footage they sent me of this Russian T-72 tank that went up in flames”
https://twitter.com/NOELreports/status/1687769299790835712
“The 3rd separate tank brigade released footage of artillery work in the Kupyansk direction near Lyman Pershyi. The fighting in this area has increased a lot lately.”

China is aligned with Russia and is using the American response to the war to create a new financial system outside of American control. They are the biggest winners.
“an irretrievable death spiral. Its fate is determined. It is just a matter of time.”
Sounds like the Russian economy, and the quality of life for the Russian people who can’t escape Putin’s oppression and disastrous mismanagement.
Doomed.
