Lol!...Ukraine should now annex it!
What Belgorod borders doink?
Provide a non-Moscow source or link for your assertion, please.
The name is Artyomovsk. Say the name!
It’s a tactical, limited only.
Hit quickly and scoot. With no intent to occupy or claim land. Just draw well-thinned out Russian troops over there, soften up in advance of UKR counteroffensive, sow civilian panic in Belgorod (they are fleeing in vehicles jamming the routes out of the city as of two hours ago) and piss off Shoogu, Gerasimov and Putin and make him respond. That border station was just a sitting duck. Very unprotected. One guard plugged the rest fled for their lives.
All equipment we've seen being used by the Russian separatists in Belgorod are available for purchase from military stores or were acquired from defecting Russian soldiers or from captured supply depots.
We look forward to the eventual referendum in Belgorod, whose votes will be counted by the man who looks like Zelenskyy wearing a fake Rasputin beard.
The Belgorod freedom fighters just shot down one of Putin’s Mi-8 helicopters. All according to plan?
Makes sense. Make Russia play whackamole.
“Damn that Jimmy Doolittle for going up and bombing Tokyo… Now he’s really gonna piss off the Japanese and they will double up efforts to kick our ass in the Pacific theatre. We better not do that again. “
I bet the vote will be 99.9% for joining Ukraine! Huzzah!
Depends on the Russian’s reaction: it’s a profound embarrassment if Russia loses even a small town to Ukraine. If this causes the Russians to move troops away from Donetsk to counter any Ukrainian move into Russia the payoff for the Ukrainians may be large.
If thats the FRL, doesnt say much for the Ruskie defenders. But no matter, the liberation of Belogrod starts! ;)
Do you want death? 100,000 dead Russians in UKR show that it’s Russia that’s dying… You travel to Russia outside of some of elite areas of Moscow? It’s a backward smelly run down shit house clear out of the 19th century… This is not “the future”… These people are miserable and suffer and do not have freedom.
>> The name is Artyomovsk. Say the name!
Its been Bakhmut since the 16 century, only renamed in 1924.
You insist to refer to it by its Soviet name because:
1) You are a relic Commie/Soviet sympathizer
2) You are a Russian troll with a mission on FR from your government
3) You are mindlessly parroting Russian propaganda narratives
Based on your posting history I personnally vote for 2)
It’s a backward smelly run down shit house clear out of the 19th century
But hey. No gobohomo! So there is that!
What country are you from?
What was your screen name in December?
