Again I suggest to investigate claims about massive Russian losses:

Do a date search and count how many tanks or IFVs destroyed compared to the same period last year.

And what you will see is that Russian vehicle losses are substantially less than last year, even though we are told of massive defeats and casualties in the current offensive.

270,000 Russians have volunteered since the start of this. Putin mobilized 300,000 reserves with a maximum age of 27. Putin also had the regular army. Yeah, those conscripts in Uke uniforms had to Putin’s. Those guys were all under 27. Due to DC’s corrupt, incompetent globohomoing, a whole Uke generation of men are gone. Now the DC warmongers and their stooge, Z, are working to eliminate additional generations, both old and young, of Uke cannon fodder. In six months Z will be spending his graft in Miami or on the Riviera, in his palace paid for by the American taxpayer and hundreds of thousands of dead young Ukrainians and many of their grandfathers.

You zeepers are the most humorless and thickest posters on FR.
Instead of defending a tagline that makes FR look as creepy as he is - how about you tell me what a "Zeeper" is, Putin Stooge?

The local pictures it seems were from Telegram, from local Russian posters.

You still don’t understand the satire behind E. Pluribus Unum’s tagline. You’re the thickest of the thick.

Because I speak against this proxy war, I’m a “Putin Stooge”?

At least Putin doesn’t have his hand in my pocket unlike your globohomo hero Zelensky.

It”s a creepy tagline that complains against censorship on FR. How about we make a stupid joke here against you?

Speaking of you... why do you hate America so much that you easily side with the KGB Agent?

And what exactly is a “Zeeper”?
Or are you too thick to answer a simple question?

“I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the six-hundred-seventieth day of the war.

Day 670: Dec 25

Today, the biggest news comes from the Adviivka direction. Here, after almost 2 weeks of regrouping, Russian forces launched a new wave of attacks, and, according to Russian sources, Russian forces breached the Ukrainian defense in Stepove, established complete control over the village, and pushed Ukrainians all the way back to Berdychi.

Ukrainian sources denied these claims and stated that half of the village is under Ukrainian control while the other half is in the grey zone. This grey zone is frequently entered by Russian assault units; however, no positions have been successfully established. Ukrainian fighters from the 47th Brigade recently posted a video showing how they spotted one such assault unit that tried to hide in the basement.

Ukrainians sent a Bradley to the region and simply demolished the entrance to the basement, burying all Russians under the rubble. Bradley vehicles have proved to be well-suited and effective on this front line. Despite the challenging weather conditions, the abundant combat videos featuring it in offensive as well as defensive operations suggest that it has no problem getting to the contact line.

A Ukrainian drone filmed Stepove from above, showing the scale of destruction. As you can see, virtually every square meter has a shell crater, and the buildings are either severely damaged or completely leveled with the ground. This makes it very difficult to understand how any party can claim control over the village or maintain a permanent presence inside. Closer footage showed that there are a lot of dugouts, holes, and trenches in the tree lines and in the village itself. Usually, there is one big trench with at least one shelter, which is surrounded by a lot of dugouts, which allows to disperse when facing an attack, giving Russians less tactical freedom.

These trenches in the grey zone are precisely where Russians are trying to establish their positions by sneaking in at night. As I showed you last time, Ukrainians are detecting them with thermal cameras and destroying them with mines. That is why many of these holes are full of corpses, reducing the number of vacant holes and not allowing the new batches of Russians to find somewhere to hide. Moreover, Ukrainian fighters from the 47th Brigade reported that they recently received a new delivery of drones, so the Stepove area became even deadlier.

Nonetheless, Russians recently conducted a series of mechanized assaults. Judging by the fresh footage of burning equipment, Russian forces engaged at least 4 tanks and armored fighting vehicles in their attacks, so it seems like Russians continue using small columns to prevent early detection and massive losses. And this tactic proved to be more successful because, this time, even though some vehicles were destroyed in route, some of them even managed to reach the outskirts of the village.

The outskirts were completely leveled with the ground, however, so the infantry had nowhere to hide and immediately ran toward the holes and trenches in the tree line. Combat footage shows how Ukrainians are trying to meet and finish the remnants of the Russian assault units from Bradley machine guns. Ukrainian fighters in Avdiivka seem to be competing by showing the highest number of inflicted losses per 100 meters of the tree line in the aftermath of repelled attacks. The freshest updates suggest that one of the most recent Russian attacks resulted in 34 killed and 2 taken captive.

In order to support their offensive efforts, Russian forces had been conducting regular airstrikes on the Ukrainian positions, especially on the northern flank of Avdiivka. The Ukrainian General Stuff reported that today, Ukrainians managed to shoot down 2 Russian fighter-bombers in the Donetsk region – one of them was dropping bombs on Avdiivka.

So, over the last 3 days, Russians lost 5 aircraft. Ukrainian analysts are expecting that the number of airstrikes in Avdiivka will decrease, just like we saw in the Kherson region. It seems like Ukrainians finally learned how to counter Russian glided bombs, which are dropped around 50 km away from the front line. This is a tremendous achievement that has already forced Russians to cancel almost all of their planned strikes. Hopefully, this trend continues.”

A massive explosion destroyed a Russian ship in Feodosia sending shrapnel flying for miles around. Ukrainian forces have continued to hold Avdiivka, with Russian assaults failing in massive numbers. Russian forces near Kherson are being hit badly and are showing heavy strain.

To bring victory closer, Ukrainians are paying significant attention to defense technology. In just six months, over 700 projects have passed through the specialized Brave1 cluster, with more than 70 of them receiving funding. Invisibility cloaks, ground combat robots, and systems that literally hear the approach of the enemy—all of these are already a reality. The reality of the most technologically advanced warfare in history

I like your new tagline.

:-)

I switched it back because the propaganda pollution seems to have ramped up over the past couple of days.

Passengers of Kherson train, who came under fire of Russian army, got to Mykolaiv by bus
News Censor.NET War in Ukraine

https://censor.net/en/n3463956

On the evening of December 26, the Russian military struck again in Kherson, attacking the railway station. A police officer was killed and four people were injured.

This is reported by Censor.NET with reference to the telegram of Ukrzaliznytsia.

“The passengers of the Kherson train safely reached Mykolaiv by bus. The train will depart for Kyiv according to the dispatch schedule,” the agency said.

They also added that flights from Kramatorsk, Lviv and Kyiv to Kherson will be tentatively sent to Mykolaiv tomorrow.

“We are currently assessing the damage to the station and railcars and monitoring the condition of our injured employees. Please follow the official information on Ukrzaliznytsia’s channels,” the statement said.

Well if he does he will have lots of Russian oligarchs and their families as neighbors.
Your one sided picture of this war would be comical if it were not so tragic.

The narrative that the deaths and injury of so many Ukrainians is the result of the west convincing them that they should not have subjected themselves freely to Russian occupation and the joys that “reunification” would have resulted in.

Putin is responsible, and the numbers you quote, if true, mean that another generation or two of Russians will have disappeared as well, but for what reason?
One group is fighting for the right of their language, culture, and nation to exist, the other for the greed and desires of a dictator and despot.
Well done Putin

So what was the truth, are you still standing by “tis just a scratch “?

Glorious victory fireworks display?

Reminds me of kazan going on for days how the ukranians could not destroy the kirtch bridge, another tis but a scratch narrative, yet the bridge was closed for months to repair “the scratch”

Your “truth” is often refuted quite quickly, not sure why you feel the need to knee jerk to uke propaganda, but then I see your mentors claiming patriot, nasam, 4 uke fighters and 6 f-16s shot down, more “truth”

I think one of my favorite “truths” was the ship was an old decommissioned ship, no big deal… like saying that is not easily disproved.

Saying something is so, does not make it so. But if it makes you feel better so be it.

Reverend Wright: "We will see how much humour Zeepers can find when the “Houthis” retaliate.
I’m glad I’m not on a US or UK in the Middle East."

I see... is it "humour" where you live, FRiend?
Would you like to share the name of that country with us?

And do you want to explain how suddenly this thread is transported from Crimea to Bab el-Mandeb?
Are you telling us the Houthis pose a threat to allied navies there?

Reverend Wright: Again I suggest to investigate claims about massive Russian losses:

Thanks, I did check it out, it's an interesting site.
And your basic point is correct, that what the military calls "op-temp", short for "operations tempo", is not today what it was back in the spring or fall of 2022.

Ukraine's 2023 summer offensive was quickly truncated when they learned what everyone in the world, except Russians, already knew -- that you can't do serious offensive operations without at least air dominance, and in Ukraine you will also need very serious mine breaching equipment & explosives.
Otherwise, offensive operations are reduced to "Meat Wave" assaults, which Ukrainians can in no way afford to do.

Reverend Wright: "...we are told of massive defeats and casualties in the current offensive."

The current offensive is by Russians against cities like Avdiivka and Krynke, where they've used "Meat Wave" assaults to gain a mile of territory at the cost of hundreds of Russian dead each day, some days over 1,000.

Ukrainian losses in Russia's "Meat Wave" assaults are said to run in the range of one Ukrainian for up to eight Russians.

Nobody here knows the actual numbers.

Because this is a proxy war , where advanced weapons are being passed by both sides to their proxies to attack surface ships.

Allied ships are under threat from the Houthis right now. But I suspect the mass drone attacks are probing attacks to run down defense missile stores and observe defense strategies.

Zeepers think it is funny when US proxies use advanced US weapons to destroy Russian ships. But I think we will see an “atomic bomb”sized tantrum from Zeepers if Russian proxies using advanced Russian weapons destroy US surface ships.
