  1.  @morganchatsworthiii9178  no Russian markings - they would be needed so no friendly fire thus Ukrainian.

  2.  @prind142  I doubt there is any tank. I saw only 2 possible return fire impacts in the whole video. I am suspicious of any "infantry" plus they are firing in multiple directions.

  3.  @Ghost0r0r  Yes, I saw that but it could be from one of their own --- better is 1:44 tree impact.

  4.  @prodvoid8023  This is meaningless as one way to stop exercises was to shoot some live rounds over troops. Impacts only.

  5.  @ingvarvolkov5309  They are clearly Donbass militia. Half of pp here claim that they are Ukrainians just misunderstood, half they are Russians, and then there is Kiev shelling them & Russia supporting them.

  6.  @ingvarvolkov5309  Well, then let them live on their own land and not occupy it. Either that or you should have fulfilled Minsk agreements.

  7.  @ingvarvolkov5309  LOL you followed Minsk? Wait, do you have two official languages in Ukraine now & equal treatment? Did you grant autonomy to two republics? LOL!

  8.  @ingvarvolkov5309  and hence if you don't follow agreements you get a war. You signed stuff. You should respect that. Change your constitution to match what you signed. Look at Canada. We resolved our issue with Quebec. They blown up 600 bombs. We granted them autonomy, modified constitution, given full language rights. No more bombs. Peace.

  9.  @ingvarvolkov5309  And this is why Russians are knocking your teeth out. Should have implemented Minsk. Now enjoy freedom bombs.

  10. Supposedly.

  11. There were no Russians there - just some DPR screen forces. IF indeed they went in 50km and if Russia wants to keep the region they just need to cut them off.

  12. Its not like they have camera at the ready all the time.

  13. These tanks were before claimed to be Russian.

  14.  @jazack7441  How do you know they did not do that??? I have no idea who spreads the BS of heavy Russian losses - you can go to BBC and they run mediazona and count every bloody grave in Russia. This was very popular in the beginning but now its not as there are so few graves while Ukrainian cemeteries are so full. So BBC quietly stopped reporting on their own project after 3 months or so.... BUT it is still run - so you can see Russian Federation losses delayed by about 2 weeks and super accurate. As for UA losses they are massive - you can also google that - simply look for "Russian artillery advantage" as most losses are caused by artillery. Right now Ukraine is badly loosing the war - if they try some counter offensive it will speed up the end so I hope they go for it - the bigger the better.

  15. Maybe, lots of these fell in the hands of Ukrainians (Donbass).
    1
  16. Why? We do not see BMP - 1/2/3 doing much better or worse - lots and lots have been taken out by a mine. Heck wheeled BTR as well.

  17.  @trentbyington5957  Most modern tanks if not hit in a weak zone from the front will easily survive this. I.e. T-72BM3 or especially something like T-90M. Heck T-90M has a chance from the side as well, maybe even T-72BM3. T-90M has read ammo storage - so I would not be shocked if rear of the turret shot was also a fail. Essentially for T-90M you have very little options with direct mode. I.e. its a cheap guided RPG now, nothing more. In fact I would rather have some older AT weapons in direct mode then Javelin. A lot of older weapons, even from 70s perform better in direct mode. Javelin in direct mode would maybe penetrate T-72A from the front into say turret cheek. Maybe.

  18. Its Azov aka Nazi - they will not surrender. Its going to be very bloody.

  19.  @QRWASUPER  Yes, freedom for Donbass!
    1
  20.  Helen R  Well, great, you can see the freedom in action - the Azov Nazi are being removed from the city by its population. Are you happy? Why do you support Azov? Do you even know local politics? Why you do not respect will of the people? Or is it ... some people, but not others? Is it skin color based? Or language based? Or maybe how they eyes are? Shouldn't all people be free?

  21. @MarmitePopsicle But that is the thinking in Kiev, is it not? They are no longer Ukrainians - they are Russians - is it not the way of Kiev?
    1
  22.  @Grek1574  Yes, they just took Krasna Hora yesterday after encircling Ukies there.
    1
  23.  @PSL416  Well, Ukraine claims are Vladivostok so I think Russian claims are far and wide more reliable.
    1
  24.  @HyzersGR  Mobiks are on Ukies side - 5 brigades of mobiks. Getting creamed now as they replaced more elite troops. Soon they get encircled or Ukies will rotate again as these 5 brigades loose 100s of men per day. So yeah, Ukies have been throwing 1000s of poorly equipped and poorly trained mobiks just so with rivers of blood they can hold to the city. For what exactly? Pathetic.

  25. Yes, they once again prevented UA from capture of Kleshivka. Chechens are the sword of Russia. They been used like this for over 200 years.

  26. Look ma, Ukrainians run out of APCs and IFV and now use old trucks ;)

  27. Ukraine fights to be member of NATO so US can threaten Russia. Russia fights to stop NATO so no one can be a threat.

  28. I would not say so - roughly the same. No difference. Either one would have a blown track and either would save the crew.

  29.  @bdinaz  This highly depends on which BMP. The original was certainly not great. The BMP 1M is better. I assume BMP 2 is similar to 1M. Not sure about 3, but I would hope even better.
    1
  30. They do not have any.
    1
  31. Nah, probably there was no tank and if there was it would be moved. Heck, there was maybe no Russians there.
    1
  32.  @justjules2029  Maybe, but in this small instance there is glory to the people of the city fighting Kiev sponsored Nazi militia. Maybe 99% of what Putin does is not nice, or evil, but its not the case here - as far as reports go.

  33.  @peterd3419  They killed at least the driver, most likely everyone. 100s of videos and even movies made about it. They did treat Iraqis like dirt or less.
    1
  34.  @mhazg6621  So what, they can be easily spoofed with smoke discharge. If infantry knew I bet the tank knew and immediately released grenades. Russian losses in tanks are much smaller then Ukraine's and literally 100s of thousands of missiles, including 1000s of Javelins did not do much.

  35. This shows how poorly trained Ukrainians are and what insane losses they are taking.
    1
  36. Hats off to Ukrainian propaganda machine for gaining legendary status.
    1
  37. More crazy is that Russia has not crushed them yet. Mostly due to very heavy western support.
    1
  38. So are they long time dead or what?
    1
  39. Russians spotted them over 5km from their forward positions. They immediately engaged. They had one mine clearing vehicle - at least. As they were in the open multiple things started to engage them. As forward elements were on fire the rest started to run. Some were taken out by mines, some by artillery some by missiles.

  40. Russia. They are in full control of the conflict.
    1
  41. Orc run from the house and told that stupid Ukies are out of ammo & easy kill now.
    1
  42. Well, Ukrainians on both sides are poorly armed.
    1
  43. Yeah suspicious. I never seen anything like this on video.
    1
  44. Cope.

  45. Russia is fighting a winning war. They use as said artillery, drones etc. To bleed UA. The main question is when will UA surrender. I believe by Spring 2024 war will be done. So far it looks that way.

  46. I saw a video of Russians attacking ONE Ukrainian in a trench with IFV and a squad. ONE. Similar tactics but they used 30mm to suppress the guy.

  47.  @xzenderx  good thing you do not and your side does not have any. But the other side is well. Supplied and ready to finish off all Nazi. Every. One. Of. Them.

  48. Wagner boss is on quick link to a suicide. I doubt he is strong enough to topple the government. This could however, be used by Ukraine to make some advances that will be costly for Russia.

  49. This would be "fun" at night.
    1
  50. Give it few more days and city will be in non Kiev Ukrainian hands. Then new units can be raised from among its citizens to fight for Donbass. I am shocked that so few pp know that both sides fight for freedom... from each other. On video we can see Ukrainian (Kiev) checkpoint under very heavy fire from Ukrainian (Donbass) forces.
