@Princip666 look up New Year assault on Grozny. The russians definitely did "fight" in winter, if you can call losing half of their entire army in a day "fighting..."

That's why right and left bank are proper terms since they always conform to specific sides of land, while river turns and twists so same side can be sometimes East, other times West, one turn North and the other South... HOWEVER, with Ukraine, it was always divided by left and right bank. Kinda like there's Upper and Lower Egypt, there's Eastern and Western Ukraine, with division on Dnipro banks. So by definition, anything on RIGHT bank will be considered in West of Ukraine and LEFT bank will be East. That's just how things are called here.

Luhansk push into Svatove/Kreminna roads was ongoing for some time, and push south into Zapo region is what russians expect, however we might see something unexpected this time. Time will tell.

It was suggested by a politicians who knows nothing in an offhand comment, there's no way you can lose 3.5 times more tech and less people than is needed to drive it.

Nobody in Ukraine believes russian agreements, if we didn't shell them that means we missed the time frame to move guns into range that's it. All analysis be damned, 95% of "why Ukraine isn't doing that" is either "they tried" or "didn't have the means". Like attacking russians ships in Crimea. We try all time, not all missiles hit and drones seem to be the best bet.

@davidpnewton not all people are big on river navigation. And left and right confuse many because of the way out maps generally look. Both are irrelevant since there's no more russians on right bank forever.

Deep State map has a good radius for various missiles and munitions, for HIMARS & M270 to hit Crimea from Kherson or free parts of Zapo oblast' (think Huliaipole), we NEED to have ATACMS, but Biden's admin, despite all their helpfulness, has a weird arbitrary ban on missiles that can reach long enough. The ban makes NO sense as the argument "so they won't hit russian territory" doesn't hold under any critique since Ukraine borders russia and can hit into its territory with a literal thrown rock.

@futte8024 everything I read suggests there was never any deal, russians withdrew final units in the night, we will see how many were hit, but there were numerous reports of russian soldiers bitching that there wasn't a deal as Ukraine kept shooting them in the back.

Their "annexation" included Zaporizhzhia, a city they NEVER even approached, imagine staging a referendum to annex New York from Siberia, same vibes. Anyway, leaving Kherson for them politicially is the same as... well... not capturing Zapo city, which they, again, couldn't even approach. For us, however, since Kherson, Zapo, Donetsk, Luhansk and Simferopol have the same status in russian eyes, it eases the arguments to push onwards to Crimea, as some ultra-corrupt western journalists and politicians attempted to frame Crimea as special case for Kremlin's money. It is not. Ukraine reclaiming Sevastopol, Simferopol, Yalta, Mariupol, Donetsk, Melitopol and Luhansk is the same as holding to Zaporizhzhia and Kherson. The ruskies were calling even Odesa a "russian city", the only russians almost reaching it are now at the bottom of the sea, so? They will never take it. And their escape from Ukrainian Crimean AR should be as rapid as from Kherson, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy and Mykolaiv.

4:07 as much as casualty list and russian strategic "genius" are rightfully mocked, nothing is AS embarassing as the fact they are still trying to capture OUTSKIRTS OF DONETSK FOR 9 YEARS NON-STOP! Like generations of russians are buried in Donetsk suburbs. When the sun will explode and we fly in another galaxy, russians will still find some suckers to throw at assaulting laser drone turrets in Bakhmut, eastern border of Space Europia.

"We don't want Prigozhin to replace Putin" why not? Firstly, most people in the field don't believe it's a possibility as Prigozhin was only promoted BECAUSE he was putin's cook. His ENTIRE power is being putin's man. Same with Shoihu & traitor Kadyrov. But hypothetically? If ANY of these clowns replaces the khuilo itself, we gonna get much tougher sanctions on russia as they don't have connections with, well, former Austrian chancellor who danced with pu on her wedding... or Berlusconi, or most of French politicians, the SPD party in Germany. Changing the bald dward to someone even less competent AND less connected will not help russia. It will weaken it further.

Warheads aren't tactical or strategic, it's the launchers that are. Tactical simply means launched at smaller range, often from conventional weapon launchers, i.e. Iskander missile launchers or Pion barrelled artillery (yes, it has a nuclear shell variant). Why are people keep pushing the TACTICAL word every time nukes are mentioned? It makes no sense. Using tactical Iskander or strategic missile like Satan won't make a difference, that's a first. When giving weapons it also breaks the same treaties, that's a second. It's almost as if media wants to normalize using nukes by singling out "tactical" term as toy nuclear weapons or something? That's like killing someone with "non-lethal rubber" tires on a cop car... Doesn't help at all. /rant over Answer to your question: russia BOUGHT weapons from Iran. With money. Ka-ching. Love. Gold. Dead white men. Green paper. As long as European Union keeps buying russian oil, they will keep getting a BILLION dollars per DAY to buy endless drones, missiles and ammo. The russia has infinite money cheat by corrupt EU politicians.

He was always known to be assigned as fall guy for Kherson. Had to be dumb enough to accept.

Most oil russia sells goes directly into Europe, it's EU who sends russians billions every week, not China or India. If you want a list of people with most trade with russia, it will probably start with likes of Switzerland, who QUADRUPLED imports from russia this year, Italy is also very close... plus the typical list of ultra-corrupt countries: Germany, Austria, France. They are the biggest providers of weapons and tech for russia: French optics, German engines, Austrian and Italian gears that make russian vehicles roll. Second biggest must be USA, since we find Texas Electronics chips in their drones. Third is Iran, followed by Israel (most "russian"-made drones are Israeli design just assembled in russia) and North Korea. Ofc Chinese are also somewhere there but their biggest trade partner is USA, while EU really likes oil from russia... their pilots fly on fuel from Total and BP.
