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.

Disclaimer of Rooskie disinformation: " 'Those Were the Days' is a song composed by Boris Fomin (1900–1948) but credited to Gene Raskin, who put a new English lyric to Fomin's Russian romance song 'Dorogoi dlinnoyu',[a] with words by the poet Konstantin Podrevsky. The song is a reminiscence of youth and romantic idealism. It also deals with tavern activities, which include drinking, singing, and dancing."

“Former CIA officer”?🤔
Too many blintzes reduces the IQ, I guess.
Wishes returned, fourteenth of Gondor. When we were legal residents in Germany, we used to gather various expat "orphans" because Thanksgiving Day was not a holiday there. Giving thanks for so much.

The Church is recalling priests who were previously sent to oil refineries to pray for their protection
According to our source in the Church, priests were sent to a number of oil refineries and other important enterprises to conduct special prayers on site for their protection from enemy attacks. Priests are being recalled from more than a dozen oil refineries.
“It has become dangerous to be at a number of oil refineries. Prayers do not always save when air defense fails. We are forced to recall our priests from 11 enterprises. We hope that the situation will improve and they will return there,” said a source close to Patriarch Kirill. This decision will almost certainly cause discontent in the Kremlin. There, it seems, they will think about how to find leverage and return the clergy to the refineries — “so that their prayers to God can help where no other protection works.” What this leverage will be is still unknown.

“Total mobilization in Russia should start on March 1.”
This prediction was made by philosopher Alexander Dugin in a conversation with us. “President Putin has chosen war, and it will last for about another 20 years. Next year, the war will become total. Everything will be total—mobilization, combat operations. A total struggle for birth rates will also begin, because new soldiers must be conceived and born now in order to be able to take part in this war,” Alexandr Gelevich said.
He predicts that next year the army will be replenished by about 1.5 million people. According to the philosopher, this mobilization will begin on March 1. It should be noted that Dugin had previously predicted the start of total mobilization in Russia on February 1 of next year. When asked why the dates had been changed, he replied, “We need time to prepare.”
The Kremlin declined to comment on these words. The Ministry of Defense noted that they are always ready for mobilization measures, as this is one of their tasks. However, they did not say how “total” such measures might be. Alexandr Gelevich urges people to trust his predictions. He notes that he is one of the few who, “amidst incomprehensible cries and predictions about peace,” predicted that Vladimir Putin would choose to continue the special military operation and wage a “long, heroic, real war.”
The chemical and oil tanker M/T Mersin (IMO 9428683, deadweight 50,000 DWT, built 2009) began sinking today in the North Atlantic approximately 70-100 km from the Senegalese capital Dakar.
The Panamanian-flagged ship, owned by the Turkish company Beşiktaş Shipping, was en route from the Russian port of Taman, where it loaded up to 50,000 tons of petroleum products in August 2025, to Dakar. According to available information, the crew reported water entering the engine room shortly before noon local time, followed by loss of stability and a strong list. The last AIS signal received was from November 24, 2025 from coordinates 14.608° N, 17.279° W, where the ship had been stationary for several days.
Senegalese maritime rescue services were immediately dispatched to the scene. Initial reports indicate that the entire crew was evacuated; no injuries or fatalities have been reported. The cause of the hull breach remains unknown. Authorities and the shipowner have yet to issue an official statement on the possible cause – whether a technical fault, collision or other incident. The M/T Mersin has repeatedly transported oil and oil products from Russian Black Sea ports in the past, making it one of the vessels often described as part of Russia's “shadow fleet” to evade Western sanctions. This has led to speculation that it was a targeted attack, but there is no evidence to support this. The threat of an oil spill has not yet been confirmed, but Senegalese authorities are preparing measures in case of an environmental accident. The situation is being monitored.
