During the course of a day here on FR, we can get an article that Russia is using “outdated” weapons and is getting wiped out, then in the same day we will get an article that Ukraine is getting hammered and their casualties can’t be sustained.

I have no idea which side is winning, one day, hopefully soon this war will be over and then we will know if Russia is getting their ass kicked or we are getting lied to about Russia winning.

Ukrainians are being led to slaughter for Biden’s proxy war just so he can blame all his bad policy outcomes on Putin. This is really shameful. If the United Nations cannot intercede and find a resolution, clearly we don’t need to continue that organization.

From what I have seen, the only thing the Ukrainians have wiped out are civilian areas that have zero Russian military assets or personnel. For the life of me, I can not figure out why Ukrainians keep shelling un-militarized civilian area in their own country. But then I never understood how Ukraine could use it’s own women and children as human shields like they have. These are some truly evil and very bad people.

Whatever Russia is losing, Ukraine is losing 2-3 times as much. Their casualties are estimated to be 60k to 80k already. And those were its best trained and equipped fighters. After Russia consolidates its occupied territory, it’s on to Odessa. Without NATO intervention they’re doomed to be cannon fodder.

George Soros is willing to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian life to preserve his Ukrainian criminal enterprises.

I think Ukraine’s problem is that the Russians have plenty of outdated weapons to use.

It’s now a contest between who has the most stomach for a war of attrition.

Hi MucusMaximum this propaganda is always good for a laugh!
.
bad news for Z on the battlefield.
yesterday Russians captured Toshkovka.
As of June 21, Russian units liberated the towns of Ustinovka, Mirnaya Dolina and the village of Podlesnoe (near Mirnaya Dolina).
.
the Russian military reached the town of Rai-Aleksandrovka and established a tight fire control over the only road that leads from the areas of Zolotoe and Gorskoe. According to reports, over 2,000 troops of the Ukrainian Armed Forces appeared to be encircled there. If Russians don’t divert to go for the L-chansk oil refinery , these Ukes are toast.

Russia is using the “staying power” that saved them in WW2. That is, just keep pouring in men and equipment until the other side runs out of bullets.

RE: 55 percent of Russian-backed forces have been wiped out in the Donbas region.

And how many percent of Ukrainian forces have been wiped out? You can’t just report one side’s casualties without telling us the casualties from the other side.

The article omits salient points:
These LNR/DNR troops are forced conscripts dragged off the streets of their villages and towns - even handicapped were conscripted. Now there are few men left to conscript. The people who once supported the Russians, now hate them.

The 1AK & 2AK are commanded by Russian officers down to the company level.

Both AKs were given weapons from WWI or old WWII Soviet gear; recently they were given T-62 tanks (the generation after the famous T-34 and not all that much better). The troops were expected to die.

Both AKs were ordered to do frontal attacks on ZSU strongholds and fortifications. Basically, the suicidal attacks were to keep ZSU troops from moving to more urgent areas.

The RGF considers the two AKs completely expendable and, for that reason, does not track their losses.
