Lol what is the point ? They will control a few border villages for a few days and get pushed out like last time
Future headline
Russia increased mobilization invades Sumy and Kharkiv areas to create a wide buffer zone to prevent attacks on its soil
lol it has been more than a few days, and they still have not been “pushed” out.
At the very least “the point” is that Russia is having to send troops and equipment to this area of the front which weakens other areas, at the most it shows to the Russian people that Putin can’t even defend actual Russian territory.
While ordering the taking of the rest of the illegally annexed Ukrainian territories, which they haven’t at great cost, parts of Russia are being lost
If the irony of that is not apparent well….
Nothing I've seen suggests that the Free Russian forces are anything more than a distraction or diversion to draw more Russian troops off the front lines in Ukraine.
They are not expected to stay long and are expected to eventually withdraw -- there are too few of them to do anything else.
But in the meantime, Free Russians could weaken the Russian defenses in Ukraine, and every little bit helps.

As this guy stated elsewhere on 30 April 2022: "We have a merch shop! Make sure to get some if you want to support the channel and get something cool out of it. 10% of the profits will be donated to a charity working in Ukraine. Thank you for all of your support!" That is, 90 percent goes to The Enforcer. As he says "long live the Leaf Spring Army, The Leaf Spring Army never dies."
