Ramzan Kadyrov, the Kremlin-appointed leader of Chechnya, has criticised the Russian army’s leadership after it appeared to be caught off guard by Ukraine’s fightback against the Russian invasion in the north-east.
In a sign that the Kremlin may face serious fallout over the loss of territory that the Russian occupation administrations had repeatedly stated they planned to keep “for ever”, Kadyrov also suggested that Vladimir Putin might not be aware of the real state of affairs.
“They have made mistakes and I think they will draw the necessary conclusions,” Kadyrov said in an audio message posted to his Telegram channel on Sunday.
“If today or tomorrow no changes in strategy are made, I will be forced to speak with the leadership of the defence ministry and the leadership of the country to explain the real situation on the ground to them. It’s a very interesting situation. It’s astounding, I would say,” said Kadyrov, a former rebel turned Kremlin ally who rules Chechnya

Hey this is in the Guardian. Must be a lie. /s
Don-don is feeling frisky I see. Just don’t drink the tea...
It looks like they will have to crank it up a few notches - larger mobilization, hitting supply-lines on NATO borders, targeting Ukraine leadership directly, maybe even battlefield nukes.
Their hearts are not into the Ukraine evasion.
Il Russo:
⚔️⚔️⚔️The enemy infrastructure has been hit - without electricity and water, part of the Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkiv and Sumy regions, Kremenchug, Pavlograd and other cities tonight’s orders come from the SUPREME CHIEF⚔️⚔️⚔️
🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡️In addition to Kharkiv, the Kremenchug thermal power plant is blazing.
A blackout on the scale of Ukraine due to falling out of the ZNPP system and hitting two main thermal power plants of Left-Bank Ukraine at once. Ukrop frantically trying to equalize the load and generation and turned off the Kharkiv and Poltava regions, but this is not enough.
failures in the networks of Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporozhye and Odessa regions.
In addition to the loss of 50,000 men the equivalent of what we lost in all of the Vietnam adventure. A lot of mommies without their babies coming home.
This sums up the Russian “special military operation” so well.

They should just change the Russian anthem to the Benny Hill theme.
Whack Kadyrov
“It looks like they will have to crank it up a few notches - larger mobilization, hitting supply-lines on NATO borders, targeting Ukraine leadership directly, maybe even battlefield nukes.”
Battlefield nukes? That would give you a tingle up your leg, eh? Unfortunately for you, not even your hero Putin is that stupid.
Every day, yet another line item in the list of reparations to be collected from Russia.
The Russians are such incredible idiots. One day this war will be over. But its direct consequences will last decades. Indirect ones, who knows. None of this is going to be good for Russia.
Don’t care. Not my monkeys, not my circus.
Just stop spending my grandkid’s money in shiitehole countries via Forever Wars!!!
Trump would be against this crap.
Larger mobilization isnt likely to help, or not for months. It seems that there just isn’t the equipment available to fit out these people. And it looks like there isnt much cadre for them either.
Apparently about 4-5 Brigade sets of heavy equipment were lost in the last week. And the Donets militias are still complaining about their poor equipment.
As for the rest, all this has been tried, repeatedly.
Trump is the guy who STARTED arming Ukraine.
And Eisenhower provided limited support to South Vietnam - which does NOT suggest he would have committed tens of billions of dollars (borrowed from our grandkids), or risked nuclear war over the place.
“limited support” to South Vietnam was financing their whole military. They were 100% rearmed with US equipment under Eisenhowers watch.
Granted, Trump would not have had to send anything like this much aid if we assume that he would have deterred Putin.
So you expect Russia to just give-up? I hope our fearless woke leaders in Washington have a plan for what comes next.
“So you expect Russia to just give-up?”
Not at all. But I don’t think they’ll go nuclear.
Trump was urged to send some arms to Ukraine. That said, Trump was not and is not a war monger person. He is a peace maker and deal maker.
The neocons tried to run him by getting him to send a cruise missile into Syria. He did it to please them, but he didn’t want to.
