  1. I read a comment from a senior Ukrainian official who said the issues highlighted by the battle was artillery ammunition and the need for modern air defence systems to protect the forward troops. He commented that the Russian glide bombs had a big effect

  2. Great work Ukraine 👍

  3. Hopefully Ukraine will use their underwater attack drone to destroy the bridge linking Crimea to Russia
    34
  4. I read an article where a Ukrainian officer in the 110th brigade said his self propelled artillery piece had two shells with no explosive charges. It's impossible to defend Avdiivka under those conditions

  5. Western tech is delivering the goods makes me laugh when all the Russian fanboys said the Storm Shadows were getting shot down and weren't effective anymore

  6. Go Ukraine 👍

  7. Great work Ukraine 👍

  8. ​ @filodipicori the reality is it's a hard fight for both sides but the invader who wanted to over throw the Ukrainian government failed.

  9. The Russian economy is in trouble they have extremely high interest rates to counter inflation
    16
  10. The Ukrainian are getting very efficient in their work fingers crossed they can get to Tokmac before the rains come. That wil set things up really well for future operations
    15
  11. More switch blade 600 are heading Ukraine which means more destruction of Russian artillery and armoured vehicles It has a one way range of 80 km with the warhead same as the javelin
    15
  12. Their fighting for their freedom they can use what they want
    14
  13. No they haven't lost more than they gained this year and they're not desperate they said they going to continue operations through the winter
    14
  14. ​ @eddgar-ce3md yep the GLSDB go 150 km. You could fire 6 of them from a HIMARS landing along a trenchline 25 metres apart that's 150 metres of destroyed trenches you could then follow up with infantry. The GLSDB can also penetrate more than three feet of steal reinforced concrete so will be great for pinpoint strikes on Russian fortifications
    13
  15. It would be great if Ukraine could get the laser guided small diameter bomb to launch from the HIMARS. It's a 250 pound bomb and with laser guidence can't be jammed. It will be great for defense and offense you can hit static targets and moving targets
    13
  16. It's a good opportunity to use the cluster munitions the Russia infantry will be above ground advancing
    12
  17. You stand with a war criminal.
    10
  18. They can take ground but can they break the will of the Ukrainian people to resist.?
    10
  19. Time for Russia to get out of Ukraine
    9
  20. Great work Ukraine 👍 I rean an article and it said Ukraine has asked the U.S for cluster bombs and they're seriously considering sending them
    9
  21. Looks like bakmut will fall within a week it's a real shame. Makes you wonder does Ukraine not have the resources to counter attack north of bakmut or do they not think it's worth it and are saving their resources for something else
    9
  22. The problem is getting the F16 close enough without getting shot down they're not a stealth fighter.
    9
  23. Avdiivka looks doomed it will probably be lost in 6-8 weeks. It all depends on what reinforcements Ukraine can send but these attritional battles always favour Russia

  24. Keep Coping Ivan😂
    9
  25. Great news it will be a relief when the south is back in Ukranian hands
    9
  26. The russian assault failed stop coping.

  27. Ukraine needs some laser guided 2000 pound JDAM the US has them they have GPS and laser guidence. They have a range of 80km they will smash Russian trenches.
    8
  28. Great work Ukraine 😂👍
    8
  29. Plenty of anti tank missile teams to stop the armour then hit the infantry with cluster munitions who will be completely exposed moving forward.

  30.  @micha-elhorus5799  the Russians have been recruiting 30,000 men a month their losses have been heavy and you only have to watch videos of interviews with russian soldiers stating their companies have taken losses from 70-90%.
    7
  31. The reality of fighting through well established defences with no air support
    7
  32. ​ @mattsmith-ri3lp 🤡 you keep going around saying the same sh.t the cluster munitions are in the field be used
    7
  33. I hope Ukraine can F16 because they will be able to use the bigger 1000 and 2000 pound JDAM
    7
  34. ​ @nzer57 they got stuck advancing on a narrow front in a mine field. Crossing a river if they are given craft to transport their armoured vehicles will be done on a broader front with no mines to hit
    7
  35. Like it or not the special military operation is a debacle
    6
  36. Great work from Ukraine hopefully they can get to Tokmak before the rains come.

  37. I read an article and it said the russians going flat out will be able to produce about 2 million artillery shells a year. In the first year they fired an estimated 10-11 million shells which is around 30,000 shells a day they wont be able to go back to that rate of fire and sustain it which is great for Ukraine

  38. Yeah that's why he follows it up with an explanation of what happened 🤦

  39. I supprt Ukraine but theyre losing ground in Kursk

  40. ​​ @HUEHUEUHEPony yet Putin is threatening everyone with nukes because he can't end the war he started.
    5
  41. Who else have you reported tough guy?.
    5
  42.  @ahndeux  The Russians haven't been able to make any gains past bakmut and a lot of ground south of bakmut has been recaptured. The Russians have been left badly compromised in Crimea there Navy and Airforce assets are struggling to operate. The ground offensive has been slow and grinding in the south the mine fields have proven a tough nut to crack but the Ukranian aren't stopping they intending to fight through the winter. The wars going to last till at least Feb 2024 which is the three year mark. Next year will see offensives from both sides and at the end of that will probably both be reaching a point of exhaustion and ready for talks to find a way out with neither side getting everything they want
    5
  43. ​ @mattsmith-ri3lp they should be able to stop the advance with a combination of anti tank missiles and cluster munitions to hit the infantry who will be advancing out in the open. Fingers crossed it happens

  44. I think this war wil be at least 3 years so its at the half way point. Does Ukraine have the manpower to sustain a conventional fight for another 18 months with the current severity if fighting and casualties?

  45. You stand with Putin illegally invading another country seriously you should be opposing him he's a criminal.

  46. Putler is a war criminal how can you stand with him.

  47. Freat work Ukraine keep fighting them hard

  48.  @gomazinho90  avdiivka isn't falling anytime soon
    4
  49.  @admiralbeez8143  it doesn't mean they're all prepared to fight and die especially when they're invading someone elses country

  50. Putin's got a troll of the week award for you.👍
