Putin loses 39th colonel in Ukraine War: Vladimir suffers blow on eve of Victory Day military parade as elite soldier dies in gun battle during intelligence mission near Kharkiv

Vladimir Putin suffered another grievous blow ahead of his Victory Day military extravaganza in Moscow tomorrow with the death of his 39th colonel in his bloody war in Ukraine.

Lt-Col Fezul Bichikaev, 36, was a high-flying elite soldier who died on a secret intelligence mission.

The father-of-three is being portrayed as a hero who was killed near Kharkiv 'with a machine gun in his hands covering his subordinates', according to reports in Russia.

A radio signal announced 'the commander is wounded' after a bullet pierced an artery, but he reportedly ordered his men: 'It's a scratch! Keep working! Work!'

'Thanks to the self-sacrifice and heroism of the officer, it was possible to save the lives of servicemen, destroy the enemy's sabotage group, and complete the combat mission,' said military expert Oleg Marzoev on a local news website in Vladikavkaz, North Ossetia.

He was one of Russia's youngest colonels, second in command of his regiment, and his death amounted to 'a heavy, irreparable loss', said the report.

His funeral was being held today.

Bichikaev's death comes a day after the disclosure of the death of Lt-Col Fyodor Solovyov, 44, in the Donbas.

Solovyov was commander of the howitzer self-propelled artillery regiment of the 127 motorised rifle division.

He was buried with full military honours and a triple volley of guns in Chunaki village, Penza region.

Four days earlier Lt-Col Eduard Dmitriev, 44, a tank commander, was reported to have been killed.

It would be interesting to know if there is an OUTCRY in Moscow about this incursion into Ukraine.

It’s obviously past time for Ukraine to apologize for being invaded, give Russia everything east of the Dnieper and promise to disarm so that Russia can save face and end this war. Because letting Russia claim victory is just really important to Czar Vlad.

The idea of a colonel leading his troops into battle, firing a machine gun, is evidence of the fundamental weakness of Russian military strategy.

This being Moscow Parade Day, May 9th in Russia, Potty Toot must be doing his best imitation of late Hitler as a crumbling madman. With some extra good shaking and a jig. At this rate he is gonna burst a vein.

Too late now. If He goes down, they go with him at this point. Unless he dies mysteriously.

All the protesters are in camps, somewhere, probably never to be heard from again.

This is a site for “Conservatives”?

Looks more like a site for sheep to follow their media masters.

I’d want to know if those Russian grunts in Ukraine are inspired by Monday’s parade of spit and polished soldiery. Or might they wonder why aren’t those guys in the same mudholee as they are.

Soviet agitprop has always been clumsy as hell. This reads like a description for one of the shitty movies on Amazon.

Ukrainians kill all the Russian officers. All of a sudden, Russian soldiers do not know what to do in combat. I assume Russian officers are well trained so it’ll be tough to replace them. The typical Russian soldier is cannon fodder.
