  1. In terms of have any future options, they are a spent force. All they have is untrained meat with rusted WWII carbines. The Winter is NOT going to favor these conscripts as they shiver, rot and die of exposure and pneumonia. With the winter wear and boots they have, frost bite and gang green is not going to produce an effective reactive defense. No matter the political officer with the bullet in the back, these recruits are largely pulled off the street and prisons. HIMARS rockets eat static defenses for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

  7. The Ukrainian Army are following the wrong strategy and should change it immediately. Firstly, they need to ask from western arms providers for long range highly powerful sniper rifles and the instructors to teach their soldiers field craft and sniping techniques. Secondly, they should let the Russians take their towns and cities which are already in ruin. Once in there, the Ukrainians should cut off all of their supply lines until they have run out of food and ammunition. At that point the untrained Russian conscripts (who don't want to be there fighting anyway) will surrender in their thousands. (Another massive blow against Putin) Thirdly, The Ukrainian Army should send out two-man hunter killer sniper teams to kill off as many Russian soldiers as possible and focusing on the Officer and NCO classes where possible. Each battalion could have a weekly or monthly competition to see whose got the most kills with a week's rest and recuperate for the winners. Fourthly. The Ukrainian Army must learn from the Taliban in their Afghan war with the Russians. They did not fight head-to-head ion trench warfare tactics which is standard training for Russian troops. NO, the Taliban beat them by using highly coordinated guerrilla ambush tactics where they would identify the Russian weaknesses and then hit them really hard, killing as many Russians as they can and then running away before they had a chance to retaliate. So, what is the new Ukrainian Army objectives in this war? That is an easy question to answer. MAKE EVERY BULLET COUNT WITH ONE SHOT ONE KILL EVERY TIME AND SEND HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF RUSSIAN BODY BAGS BACK TO THE KREMLIN AND THE MOTHEFRS AND FATHER OF THE UNTRAINED CONSCRIPTS. REMEM BER – THIS IS NOTHING MORE THAN A NUMBERS GAME—- WHO CAN KILL THE MOST OF THE ENEMY WINS — ITS THAT SIMPLE.

  18. Where is this amazing information coming from? Ukraine ?? Well unfortunately they are not proven to be totally reliable. The main problem of the west is saying the russian army is useless. What a big big mistake we are making. Properganda like this is ultimately going to make the west loose this war. Unless we stop the bullshit it's over. The Russians are certainly not useless and they have a arsenal that makes nato look like a water pistol. Stop the crap. Start with reality and maybe we might stand a chance

  21. Hit their power stations so Russian can see how it feels to live in the darkness cold. This is war they do not play by rules. U need to drive Putin out of Kremlin because Russians don’t seem to know what to do with him.
