Russian troops are retreating and deserting and have been repelled from strategic Kyiv suburb which could stop Putin's forces from surrounding the capital... Oh, thank God! People have been screaming at me for weeks, that Putin was going to conquer Europe just like Hitler, only faster, and we needed to send US troops to stop him, ASAP!
But look now! Turns out, Putin's just a puffer, and the Russian military looks like a "clown car" going in circles with the driver passed out! In fact, it sounds like the Russian army will need international assistance just to fight its way back to Russia, to save Putin's sorry @ss from assassination!
Thank God, it was just a false alarm (freaking media getting everybody stirred up over a 3rd rate 'invasion' by 4th rate 'troops')! Only danger to Poland or the rest of Europe is a bunch of deserting Ruskie troops wanting political asylum &/or prosthetic gonads!

In dealing with such a situation a certain good amount of skepticism is prudent, but after weeks you would think the Russians would be in a mop up phase by now.

—”I am not the one constantly posting Ukrainian propaganda on FR “
Your posting history shows otherwise and you failed to answer the question.
Seeing as the ruble has turned to rubble, I too would be embarrassed about by such meager pay.
It is a wonder how a man of the people, President Putin can afford a $14,000 designer jacket? Yes, it is Italian.
Kind of sad he has to purchase foreign-made clothes from a country with a greater GDP? Does not help Mother Russia one bit.

Something's definitely happening outside Kyiv:
#Ukraine: We managed to identify this bizarre "container", captured today by the UA forces near #Kyiv.
It is likely to be the command post of one of the most potent Russian EW system - 1RL257 Krasukha-4, used to suppress AWACS radars & radar reconnaissance satellites.

It represents billions of dollars in top secret r&d, and if NATO engineers get their hands on it, they can probably patch/upgrade their systems to be immune/resilient to it's effects. So yes. Major intelligence failure by Russia.

That’s true. The Brit press is better at reporting US RAT scandals. But now all they apparently do is print whatever the Ukrainian Ministry of Propaganda tells them to.

NATO needs to send Ukrainians 10,000 Javelins and 10,000 Stingers plus 2 million combat rifles and 1 billion rounds of ammo. The Ukrainians would run the Ruskies out of their country. Apparently it would be a lot quicker & cheaper to just send the Ukrainians a bunch of nukes...

Oh, thank God! People have been screaming at me for weeks, that Putin was going to conquer Europe just like Hitlerpooter is Schroedinger’s Hitler. He’s simultaneously On his last ropes and being killed by “Ghost Pilot” while taking over the world and your kids will be sparking commie Russian.

No political officers stationed in the rear to shoot any soldier who retreats?

Getting paid a lot for flooding FR with Ukrainian propaganda through the Daily Mail? The article is simply reporting what Ukraine is claiming.
That's certainly newsworthy, whether one believes it or not.
I think many folks around here are grown up enough to want to see confirmation on all reports from all sides before they believe something.
To: SmokingJoe
You’re the troll. You don’t contribute anything but throw ice water on the brave Ukrainian soldiers who are actually fighting. Ukrainian bravery cannot be denied.

This system consists of two trucks, one with the antenna assembly and the other with the command post
Looks like the Russians left in such a hurry they weren't able to reload the command post on its truck and had to abandon it

I am throwing ‘ice water” on “brave Ukrainian soldiers”?
I never came across one before let alone throw ice water on them.
And how do you know they are brave?

How far is he willing to go to win Ukraine? I’m not sure anyone knows that answer.

Read his war speech. He states exactly what he is going to accomplish. Much like Trump, a strong leader and does what he says he will do.

Must be why the Russians left the internet working. People can no longer control their use of the social media and reveal all kinds of things.
