129,870 KIA. 389,610 WIA Russian soldiers
Absolutely mind blowing numbers to be able to see the amounts listed however the fact that the human cost of this is exponentially more makes this even more of a sobering thought. 58% of the entire Russian military has been operationally disrupted. And in fact I really don't think that we are going to be able to see a recovery from the Red army after the complete and total destruction of its military forces.
Six armor personnel carriers four tanks.
Five artillery pieces and one plane rounds out Russian losses today.
Russian military forces decided to cover the Russian ministry air defense system that they hoisted on top of the building with a huge camouflage netting tent that's green as if that is going to help it not being seen. And one of the most pressing questions is no Russian forces never did a load-bearing assessment on this building. That would be really handy to know. As well as also having a bunch of other buildings that have been appropriated for a Moscow Air defense system.
Donbas
Russia has now issued orders that Vladimir Putin wishes the entire region to be taken by March. I'm not exactly sure if a bunch of hopeful thinking is going to manage that for them. Especially with the massive amount of Russian losses we have seen.
Krimmena
Ukrainian forces are reporting a lot of Russian Red army reinforcements here in this area. Most likely as a response to the Ukrainian bushes here in the area Russia is finally getting enough forces too actually push back and apply some pressure. However this really is a limited defensive as more capable equipment from Western Nation donations is about ready to start pouring into these areas.
Behind Russia lines luhansk
The yellow ribbon brigade is extremely active posting stickers and graffiti all over proving that Russian forces do not have as much control and support in this area as they thought they didn't.
Some of the greatest propaganda says that there will be Hague trials referencing the war crimes that have been committed in this conflict. Of course the international criminal court will get to decide all of this.
Soledar
Red army and Wagner private military group forces are really trying to consolidate as much of the gains as possible. However Wagner group prep military forces have been reported to being switched out of this area and sent South.
Bakhmut
Human wave attacks are still being reported however these wave attacks are also now not being supported by Russian armored assets. Apparently Rush forces can liquidate massive amounts of human beings in human way of attacks as they're extremely expendable and armored vehicles now are at a super high premium. Basically that means that now advancing infantry lacks any armored vehicle support making these attacks a waste of Russian lives. That is to anyone that really even cares about the lives of the Russian soldiers in this conflict.
Adeevka
Largely unchanged this front is one of the most stable fronts as well as one of the oldest with fighting here center during the 2014 conflict. The fact that Russian forces got brutalized here in 2014 has this area historically known for brutal combat. Russian forces look like they are pinned behind very well defined front line.
Mariupol
More explosions being reported behind enemy lines at this shattered City and military port. Russian forces have supply lines set up in an attempt to directly supply the immediate front lines in this area. However with this being within range absolutely you can see it getting hit just like this report shows how much of a Target this area is as well as Russian bases in this area being brutalized and taking advantage of.
Vuhledar
Reports of infantry assaults failing miserably are coming out and they've been replaced with artillery strikes and retaliation. Russian forces are really upset that they have lost the initiative and are deciding to waste a bunch of ammunition on the valuable artillery systems in a useless attempt to cause some kind of destruction in this area. It's just a matter of time before Russian offensives in this area Begin again.
Kherson
Russian forces in the northern section of this front decided to shell a kindergarten. Kind of random attacks that really don't mean anything.
Crimea
Sevastopol the big huge naval Base takes continued hits from grown attacks. Yep that's right continued drone attacks only escalate the amount of damage to this military facility and those are only going to grow in frequency and destruction as long as Russian forces remain in this peninsula. This entire peninsula absolutely is not protected and extremely vulnerable to Ukrainian attacks proves this. Incredibly Russian hold over Crimea has never been so tenuous and threatened.
Cattle trucks containing Russian prisoners head to the front line
That's really going to suck for those individuals about ready to enter the meat grinder. In fact it's going to be a really bad situation for those Russian soldiers.
Word in the prison systems is now that individual signing up and shipping out with Wagner group PMC forces don't come back. Massive amounts of Russian convicts being eliminated is going to result in recruiting from prisons to be a very short-sighted and finite resource. There's only going to be a matter of time until there are no more Russian prisoners able or willing to go to the front lines.
Order 22
Rushing universities have a new order and it's already been leaked to the entire public. Basically when order 22 is sent out Russian universities are to round up all the students for immediate transportation to the front lines. Which is immediately resulting in Russian students demanding online distance learning classes and an immediate drop in attendance for in-person classes. What isn't reported is if they are going to kidnap the young women or if it is just going to be young men sent to the front lines. You can absolutely tell Russia is getting a lot more desperate as the resourceful methods in which you can kidnap your citizens and send them to the front lines is starting to prove.
93rd mechanized battling in Bakhmut.
Heavy ground operations by one of the most prestigious Ukrainian military units. This unit actually Rose to fame in the initial invasion in 2014 and was successfully able to shut down the entire front line with phenomenal operations.
And now they're neck deep in operations in this front. Combining drones as well as mortars and indirect fire this year it is responsible for a massive amount of the Russian losses here in this section.
Watching volunteers from Belarus dropping grenades and then also operating a mortar with such phenomenal precision that it just really inspires a lot of individuals with the proper way for them to hang rounds in a tube. Watching that stability on the base plate was phenomenal and getting to check out the bomb damage assessment provided by the real-time feedback of a extremely capable drone system is pretty cool.
Ukrainian artillery unit. Between drone flights infantry assaults and counter battery fire I'm sure that life in these units is pretty rough however they are doing a phenomenal job and really saving a massive amount of lives with this new integration that allows precision artillery fire and instantaneous bomb damage or AKA artillery damage assessments to be carried out and directly shown to officers in the rear. One must absolutely respect artillery systems especially ones that are able to deliver a massive amount of precision like these.
The entire world can agreeing especially the Ukrainian soldier quoted as saying everyone can see the kind of meat grinder that is playing out around the city right now.
It's pretty humbling how self propelled artillery specialist s are extremely grateful for the mechanized equipment that they have that keeps them out of the mud and dirt. Hearing the respect the artillery men give Frontline fighters is pretty amazing. The high amount of respect each different branch is showing two each other not only is really phenomenal but it is also extremely inspiring. Usually the different branches of your services are always arguing amongst themselves and competing whereas here we have a deep-seated respect for the different jobs.
Incredibly these units are actually not needing to relocate and actually shoot from the same positions in an attempt to draw Russian counter battery fire. Basically this means that behind them happens to be American made m777 sniper assets just waiting to unload however they are actually layering the different artillery weapon systems and integrate all these different systems into one cohesive defense network. Really smart and incredibly capable of dropping a massive amount of ordinance directly on target.
Basically it was a counter-attack against the enemy's counter attack or counter counter battery fire. Either way you can hear the pride in this individuals voice even though he is the bait. Having such confidence on the battlefield is absolutely incredible.
The enemy shut up! And absolutely these soldiers should feel really good that they have such good layered support and phenomenal weapon systems at their disposal. I can only imagine what these individuals will be able to do with even more capable battlefield equipment.
The massive Russian artillery advantage has disappeared most likely also with the lack of Russian artillery ammunition availability with the Red army expending most of their arsenal uselessly. Pretty amazing that Western precision munitions and weapon systems are able to have this kind of impact on the battlefield.
One of the scariest things they point out happens to be getting spotted by a drone and I can only imagine why with Russian forces having extremely low grade technology and with Ukrainian forces having state-of-the-art equipment now the entire equation has been changed. We watch drones with 200 power zoom, night vision and thermals being able to visually reach for Miles and show what's really going on in the battlefield.
Electronic warfare drone jamming forces make certain sectors extremely difficult to operate in. As this entire war continues we see a huge attrition on drones and other equipment. I've actually seen Ukrainian forces capture radios as well as recapture their own downed drones most likely for parts to repair other combat lost drones.
Watching the evolution of combat in this war is pretty incredible.. Russian forces are doing their best to mitigate and destroy Ukrainian drone forces however they are coming up short and losing this battle.
Denys
First off he goes right into Ukrainian forces are most likely looking at a Russian offensive here pretty shortly. With Russian forces amassing a massive amount of forces along the front line it is only a matter of time before and they start to be deployed.
Looks like Russia is really in trouble as it's nearly lost 150,000 troops and it is working on getting even more troops back to the front lines. Which basically means that Russian forces are only replacing Frontline forces that it has lost and apparently is completely willing to accept the massive amount of casualties with even more Russian soldiers in this operational theater.
Compulsory services being forced with Russia opening up age guidelines as well. So it was 18 to 27 years old that you needed to serve your military service however now Russia is opening it all way up to 36 years old and it seems like this is going to be the new amazing wonder weapon that Russia has been talking about. The idea that sending your youngest individuals directly in the battlefield might not be that smartest. However at this point Russia really has a massive limitation on who they can send as all of the best units have been destroyed. What is left over? Because we absolutely have seen a phenomenal amount of destruction happened to Frontline units so the question around the world really is how much combat capability does Russia retain.
Summit in the Ukrainian Capital as well as European nations are cracking down on Russian sanction violations.
Russian federation member nations are working very hard at busting me sanctions and doing a massive amount of illicit trade however that's going to come to bite them in the ass. A bunch of these different organizations are being sanctioned as well as we are going to continue seeing a hunt go on for any individuals involved in violating sanctions against the Russian nation.
Sanctions are really hitting European nations especially Great Britain. However internationally the pressure to deal with the Russian situation now and not to allow them an opportunity on continuing this conflict.
Poland is pushing for reparations in the entire world war II situation which is angering the German far right. So we might even see a conflict in between Germany and Poland as more of a economical war than an actual military endeavor.
Germany believes that any debate open would be dangerous however after world war II Poland fell under the Soviet block which that action more than anything cause the massive destruction of the Polish economy and it's current troubles. Blaming reparations solely on Germany really isn't an answer. And the entire world knows that however having this argument going on in the midst of the war with Russia going on is a pretty large fracturing of the unity we see between North Atlantic treaty organization countries. However it actually does seem like there is a huge amount of coordination going on behind the scenes and accusations of Russian State security interference in this entire situation is pretty apparent. The only country that would be able to encourage this entire situation would be Rush of course.
Russia and Belarus are facing a bunch of calls to be banned from competing in the Olympics. Which actually is gaining a lot of traction and there's a lot of individuals outcry that Russia and Belarus really need to be band.
The huge amount of people are pushing for Ukraine to become a part of the European union and I think that is actually an excellent plan for Ukrainian sovereignty and for also Ukrainian national pride.
Also brought up is Russian nuclear weapon blackmail against the rest of the world's population. The fact that the entire world has to suffer from nuclear weapons threats and the terrorist idea that Russia is going to destroy the entire planet massive amounts of human beings is just unacceptable.
As well as the skating criticism of Western Nations for not seriously supporting and supplying the Ukrainian war effort to their full capabilities and really dragging this conflict out. Which absolutely is a valid concern.
And I'm gonna do the promotion tag line!
Budo brothers!
I'd definitely like to promote them. They are sending me a pair of these sticks. So in return I'd love to promote them here on the blockchain. Cool gear and martial arts videos that are phenomenal.
