Wow.
I was completely correct about the defense of the Ukraine. Absolutely huge amount of resistance has been mounted as well as achieved. The humiliation of Russia is pretty complete with some pretty heavy losses as well as even the common citizens of the Ukraine are doing their own part and the national trend of Molotov cocktails manufacturing has ended up providing a huge defense.
And you tell me what's going on after you watch these soldiers speak...
Absolutely insane and here's a little bit more on the reporting of the Ukrainian resistance. From reports Molotov cocktails even though extremely low technology are extremely effective against all armored vehicles.
Russia puts nuclear forces on alert.
Absolutely amazing how that more information starting to pour in now from the front lines as well as video.
Absolutely horrific violence however in the midst of all this you see people carrying their pet.
That is absolutely beyond powerful to me that even in the middle of a war and such horrific violence the first thing that people grab isn't their personal possessions it is their pets.
Absolutely huge.
Now we're looking at international media
Huge blunders by Putin.
Chechen fighters involved. Now this throws a huge monkey wrench into the works possibly involving the entire Arab world turning Asia into a firestorm of religious crusading....
Russian planes denied European airspace. This is definitely going to be a huge one. I have a feeling that multiple other countries are soon going to follow this example and further isolate Russia with even more sanctions.
The battle of the capital continued.
Hunt for Russian special forces units. Highly effective... I see markings for the identification of friendly units beginning!
And I'm seeing a huge amount of highly effective organized resistance going on and a strategic fallback campaign.
In this vehicle it looks like a Russian tank has been hit and is off-road and then infantry mounted up in armored personnel carriers pushing forward. We will see however it looks to me like the direction of fire on that tank and then the running gun battle on the push back due to no cover and most likely Fall back in placements waiting for that ambush. That modern Russian tank looked like it got hit either by another tank or most likely a anti-tank missile.
Civilian involvement documented here
It is impossible to conquer people that the entire population is resisting actively from their own homes.
Especially with being able to send video as well as real time communications.
All of lessons learned interact Afghanistan and as well 12 years of direct modern combat have shown the lessons learned and directly applied.
Now with the threat of nuclear escalation this is something that has now reverberated across the world in ways that China releasing a biological weapon apparently cannot get the world to unite.
It is looking like the Russians are completely taken unaware from multiple sides and absolutely overwhelmed by prepared defenses improvised explosive devices I'm sure as well as guided anti-tank weapons and surface to air missiles.
The one thing that I can say about this entire conflict is the sheer brutality. Ukrainian forces look like they are finally getting a chance to engage after the frustration of so many years of static trench warfare.
Apparently all of the previous planning as well as situational awareness have built and accumulated into a huge Firestorm that has put Russia back on its heels with coordinated counter attacks.
Like I say it is nearly impossible to defeat a highly entrenched and willing opponent in there prepared defenses.
With the amount of time spent in defense preparation the results of all the training and all the prepared plans have come down to a high amount of success.
The reality of the war is now at Putin's doorstep. I think this would be the biggest blunder that Putin has ever entered into and it's only a matter of time before either this escalates to full nuclear combat or an immediate international resolution.
My prayers are going up for that diplomatic option as world could really use something negotiations right about now.
So what do you think. Is Russia going to continue with the conventional war or are they going to go full nuclear.
