Dramatic moment huge Ukrainian tank convoy pours over Russian border as Putin’s troops surrender in their OWN country

THIS is the moment a convoy of Ukrainian tanks rumble into Russia as Vladimir Putin's troops put up the white flag on their own turf.

-snip-

In Novoivanovka, the Ukrainians took prisoners, say reports.

Previous footage showed dozens of soldiers submitting to Ukrainian forces as Russian positions in Nikolayevo-Darino and Oleshnya were raided amid intense cross-border offensive.

Geolocated footage published by Ukraine Map shows dozens of men claimed to be Russians.

Russian prisoners of war are seen in Ukrainian hands in a further humiliation for Putin.

The surrendered soldiers and FSB border guards are shown on video after capture in the Kursk region.

Some reports said Ukraine had detained as many as 300 Russian servicemen in total, and that Kyiv’s forces have penetrated almost 20 miles inside Putin’s country, with fighting around the town of Korenevo.

This contradicts Russian military chief Valery Gerasimov who said that the incursion by 1,000 Ukrainian troops had been halted.

Among those held are Russia’s 225th Assault Brigade, shown in footage with their hands bound, sitting on a road after reportedly giving up their weapons.

Another clip claimed to show captive Russian soldiers walking in a line and escorted by their new Ukrainian guards.

From reports in Kursk, it looks like Ukraine is going to have a lot more funerals.

St Z’s current stunt of sending yet more Ukies into Vlad’s meat grinder will end like all the rest, Marioupol, Bakmut, Avidivka, the failed summer offensive, Kherson debacle, Belgorod, etc….

The definition of stupidity: Doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.

You have to admit it’s pathetic that Russia just gave up so fast.

Reagan wasn’t a zeeper.

He was against the Soviet Union

The UK media are totally biased in their misreporting of the war in Ukraine, refusing to acknowledge that Russia has the upper hand in this war of attrition.

Meanwhile, Ukraine is busy committing military suicide with its PR attack into Russian territory near Kursk. The attacking force lacked air cover and the power to sustain the attack. The Ukrainian troops were savaged by Russian air strikes, artillery and drones. Some have opined that this was a feint or a diversion, i.e., focus Russian attention in the north and then strike at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. Maybe, but Ukraine lost significant resources in terms of men and equipment that cannot be easily replaced.

Let’s assume, for the sake of argument, that Ukraine managed to reach Kursk. Okay. How do they resupply their troops and sustain the momentum of the attack. Russia has a wealth of resources — manpower, combat air, artillery and drones — to bog the Ukrainians down and chew them up. Those who believe that this would force Russia to seek a negotiated end to the war are the same delusional clowns who promised that Ukrainian troops would be sloshing around on the beaches of Crimea last summer.

This attack is likely to have the opposite effect — Russia will accelerate its offensive against Ukraine and will not negotiate until Ukraine begs for mercy.

Please explain how people posting articles about Ukraine prevents anyone from reading other news.

You literally chose to click on this article and post your comment. To the extent that prevented you from reading other news, that is entirely your own fault.

You're a funny guy. You complain that having Ukraine war threads distracts people from other news stories, yet you also advertise your very own ping list for stories about...the Ukraine war.

You're the poster child for cognitive dissonance.
