Video suggests Russian advance forces at Hostomel were annihilated last night. Half of them don't appear to even have been able to dismount from their vehicles. When entire platoons get wiped out it's going to be hard for Russians to spin to families that the war is going well.

I would expect if this is the case, Russians use of indirect fires will be on the rise.

Looks more like a small armored vehicle group got hit hard.

So, call the phone number on the letter, and ask if it’s real.

You call it and ask whoever answers what he thinks your IQ is.

None of the soldiers (on either side) wear clear cut uniforms to distinguish who is Russian and who is Ukrainian.

These videos may really be showing dead Ukrainians instead of Russians. What to believe.

“What to believe.”

I find it interesting that in the 21st century, a true era of mass communications, we have no idea which report is true.

Eighty years ago, during WW2, we had Edward R. Murrow broadcasting from London with war news.
Well, the war news approved by both the British & American Governments.

Irrelevant.

"Spin" does not play the role in Russia, or a lot of other places, that it does here.

28,000 Russians died taking Kiev in 1943.

That was in 1943. When too many Russians were being sent home dead to Russia from Afghanistan in the 80’s it became hard to hide. The Russians have a population issue and a loss of thousands of Russian males in their primes will have impacts!

Population of Russia in 1940 was 110 million. Population in 1950 was 101 million. Population of USSR was 194 and 178 million.

Current population of Russia is 145 million.

Hard to tell what is true now.

Anyway, have the Russian changed their tactics? Are they not allowing an evacuation route?

This is “fog of war” stuff. Twitter is controlled by allies of the Deep State, as is most of Big Tech, and what is reported will likely favor the side the Deep State chooses.
