Ukraine claimed today that its forces had shot dead the deputy commander of Russia's Black Sea Fleet in another significant blow to Vladimir Putin's forces.

First rank captain Andrey Paliy, 51, is the only senior naval officer allegedly killed in the war in Ukraine, although Kyiv claims to have slain five army generals.

Col Sergei Sukharev, of the 331st Guards Parachute Assault Regiment from Kostroma, was killed on March 18 and Andrei Sukhovetsky, 47, was killed during a special operation by a sniper on March 3.

In addition, Major-General Oleg Mityaev, 47, commander of the army's 150th motorised rifle division, died fighting around the besieged city of Mariupol, Major General Vitaly Gerasimov, 45, was killed on March 7 outside the eastern city of Kharkiv, and Colonel Andrey Kolesnikov, Commander of the Guards Tank Kantemirovskaya Division, was killed in fighting on March 11.

‘’Amazing how they have all this information. Are the Russians providing this info to the Daily Mail?’’

———

We lost all guardrails long ago, but Covid proved the narrative will be driven to the point of absurdity, even if people die.

“Apparently only the Ukrainians have guns.”

Correct. And you’ve heard of the “Magic Bullet”?

The Uke military is armed exclusively with a unique brand of them; no matter which direction a Uke soldier shoots, the round will seek out & kill only Russians - who are of Colonel rank or higher.

It feeks like these guys are being given up by their side, saner Russians troops who dont want to die or gets maimed for Putin’s meglomaniac fantasy, that does not benefit Russia but us destroying it.

Putin is defending his border.

Biden is not.

Putin supports family values.

Biden supports pervert values.

Putin wants to improve the living standards of his population.

Biden wants to lower the living standards of the US people.

Those are simple facts.

If this is true, it looks like the Ukraine has good intel and an effective guerilla campaign.

I don't know what to believe, other than keep America out of it, even if means breaking the NATO treaty. Let Europe fight this out. They have plenty of conventional warfare resources to keep Putin from expending his Soviet dreams to other nations.

NO MORE OF OUR KIDS' LIVES, LIMBS, AND BLOOD! And please don't give me the line about Russia having 3 times our nuke warheads. The USA, Britain, and France have enough to kill Russia and the world. Putin can bluster all he wants, but I'd bet that being KGB during the Cold War, he still understands MAD.

"Family values" including killing his political opponents, imprisoning ordinary Russians who disagree with his regime, and making babies with an attractive gymnast while married to someone else. A real choirboy, that Vladimir.

If you want to see our freedoms at work just try posting something against the official agenda on any topic on Big Tech social media—and watch what happens next.

Our virtue is gone....nothing to signal any more.

And it’s pretty much the truth which I noted you didn’t dispute.

“Major General Andrei Kolesnikov: Commander of the 29th Combined Army Army”

I just noticed that although he was a one star, he was serving in the position of a two star (equivalent of an American Division Commanding General).

The other Combined Arms Army Commanding General who was killed, Lieutenant General Andrey Mordvichev, CG of the 8th CAA, I did not see on your list. I believe that he is the highest ranking Russian Casualty so far (equivalent to an American 2 star).
