Russia Loses 1180 Troops, Two Warplanes, 69 Artillery Systems in a Day
Newsweek ^ | August 5, 2024 | Brendan Cole

Posted on 08/05/2024 7:02:26 AM PDT by Alter Kaker

Russia continues to pay a high cost in troops and equipment during its full-scale invasion, according to Kyiv, the recent figures of which outline losses of several dozen artillery systems—as well as two warplanes.

Sunday's update by Ukraine's military noted how two aircraft had been among the equipment losses Russia had suffered over the previous day.

This followed what Ukraine's General Staff said was a drone strike on the Morozovsk airfield, a Russian military base in the Rostov region near the Ukrainian border, which is home to Sukhoi Su-27 and Su-34 glide bombers.

Kyiv said that the strikes hit warehouses filled with ammunition, including those hosting guided aerial bombs which Moscow has used on Ukraine for months. Newsweek has contacted the Russian Defense Ministry for comment.

The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said footage of secondary explosions near the airfield was consistent with strikes against an ammunition depot. Without specifying which ones in its figures, Ukraine said that Russia had lost two planes that day, taking the total aircraft losses for the war to 365.

In July, Ukrainian drones had hit the same military airfield with footage on social media showing smoke rising above the site.

A war of attrition that exists to feed our Military Industrial Complex

Putin started the war. Why does Putin want to feed our military industrial complex?

Like HƐⱢⱢ!   We, the United States, started it and you know it.   For the past twenty five years we have pushed NATO, our martial proxy, right up to the borders of Russia.   We started this belligerent push to destruction.

We have no authority over Russia or Ukraine.   It is not our responsibility whatever happens between those nations.

Get this through your head, Putin is not Hitler just like President Trump isn't Hitler.   Go back to your fainting couch, clutch your pearls and take a nap.

This sounds like some over-online weirdo conspiracy theory. The war started when Russia invaded Ukraine. Nobody invaded Russia.

For the past twenty five years we have pushed NATO, our martial proxy, right up to the borders of Russia.

We have done no such thing. Russia has threatened its neighbors so they have joined an alliance to seek protection from Russia. Nobody has forced anyone to join NATO, Russia's former vassals have come to NATO asking to join. If Russia wants countries to leave NATO, it should stop invading and threatening its neighbors - NATO only exists because Russia makes it exist.

Correct, that's what the photo credit on Twitter said.

>>>>What an idiotic thing to say. What is wrong with you?<<<<

Alter likes to make false accusations against pro-America FReepers.

He falsely accused Kazan of being pro-child abuse.

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4255449/posts?page=6#6

He libels FReepers without any proof whatsoever and makes stuff up to further his warmongering, globalist agenda. And when you ask for proof, all you get is crickets.

Typical zeeper.

Why don’t you ask her?

Since you’re obviously afraid to, or you would have copied her on your response, I’ll ask her for you.

I’m sure she’ll gladly fill you in.

In this war, drones are more lethal than artillery

And, the Russians have more of those, too, Adolf.

With all this ukranian propaganda posted on FR, by my account, Russia has lost more war making materials than has ever been manufactured in the entire history of the Earf.

You act like the most reprehensible person on this forum.   You are on the side of Joe Biden, Klaus Schwab, George Soros, and all of the other Warmongers and Oligarchs.

Merchants of Death: Global Oligarchs and Their War On Humanity Paperback – December 6, 2023

"Professors John Hartnett and Augusto Zimmermann have drawn from their depth of academic experience to produce a well-researched counter-offensive to Klaus Schwab’s Great Reset. The conspiracies of the Elites are no longer secret. In his book, “Covid-19: The Great Reset,” Schwab openly applauded pandemics, calling the Black Death that killed upwards of 200 million people “the unrecognized beginning of modern man.” Schwab longed for another pandemic to usher in “long-lasting and dramatic consequences for our world today” and wrote, “we should take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity to reimagine our world.” Many in the World Economic Forum (WEF) agree with him. For such reasons, the professors have identified Schwab as one of the “Merchants of Death.”

"In this book is the forbidden information you’re not supposed to know. Consume it, and it will lead you away from the corrupt leaders who plan to enslave you and to safety of the only Savior Jesus Christ who wants to set you free." —Steve Cioccolanti, B.A., M.Ed.
