I know nothing about military tactics but the Ukraine tactics seem very media optics and public relations to their western backers rooted. A big picture would be a counter offensive on or near Crimea seems a Zelensky movie move?
I love how people are quick to label this a US/West proxy war! It was a Ukrainian civil war that was supported, both politically and military, by Russia, back 2014. It wasn't until Putin started his SMO that the West began to arm and train the Ukrainian forces. Putin has been engineering this conflict from the start in his bid to recreate USSR 2.0
Plase do find Paul Craig Robert's latest report. He makes so much sense. WHY has Russia allowed this t go on and on when it could have been over within a week or two? There is something very wrong about it all and one wonders whether Russia and the West are playing us all – as usual!
If NATO is a defensive organisation, why does it defends or involved in a conflict, to the point of weakening itself, in a non-NATO country? One can argue that NATO not the part to this conflict. Oh yes it is! Are they not the NATO's countries who scraping the bottom of the barrel to provide Ukraine with every bit of weapons, instructors, mercenaries, satellite surveillance etc.? Who else if not Stoltenberg is urging these countries to give to Ukraine more sofisticated war equipment? Say your prayers, people. At best NATO will impoverish our country with this unending war, at worst – we will be dragged into a very hot conflict.
Quote: "Preparation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for various actions of defensive and offensive nature is underway. Counteroffensive actions are already taking place in Eastern Ukraine."the Defence Forces are holding back the Russian offensive in intense battles, inflicting significant losses on the enemy."
Regarding guided bombs. Russia had those for a long time. Problem with those designed and built "from scratch" is simple – expensive and low in numbers for the same reason. Current crop of gliding bombs uses "dumb" bombs with attached glide/guidance kit which is relatively inexpensive and it drastically increase the numbers (stocks of "dumb" FAB500 and FAB1500 is huge). So far FAB500 is used. FAB1500 kit is in final stages of testing and is expected on the front line very soon. ODAB1500PMV is one of more "popular" within land forces receiving air support – thermobaric bomb similar in nature to TOS-1/2 projectiles but much larger in its load. It's radius of impact is slightly less than "normal" 1500kg bomb but there are no "gaps" in it at all.
Heavy Russian bombing of the city on enemy lines . Well all those NATO boots on the ground would be getting a taste of their own medicine as any non conforming sovereign state that rejected Us extortion would as a rule get bomb regardless if their were any enemy in the city
A former Wagner mercenary has admitted to killing and torturing dozens of Ukrainian prisoners of war, in one of the most detailed first-person accounts of atrocities committed by Russian forces in Ukraine. Alexey Savichev, 49, a former Russian convict recruited by Wagner last September, told the Guardian in a telephone interview that he participated in summary executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war during his six months of fighting in eastern Ukraine.
Maybe you should mention the interview with Ex Wagner soldier, Alexey Savichev. He's detailed all the war crimes carried out by Wagner in Bakhmut. It just get's worse and worse for Russia.
Thank You Alexander for your updates and analysis. I get much via my other sources But you add much to it and the lighter background helps me to hang in there to hear from you. 😊😉👍❤️
Who cuts heads off and mounts one on a spike or would cut off POW genitals? – Wagner released ex-convicts confessing to deliberately murdering children or rolling hand grenades in on wounded or disobedient troops just following orders? Where have we heard that before?
The Russian occupiers are murdering and raping women and children. As more and more of their atrocities are exposed the world will turn against them and their propagandists.
Meanwhile Mercouris and the entire Duran crew got scammed and fooled by Donbass Devushka, who is in fact an American citizen, she scammed lots of pro russian Western tankies out of a lot of money, and she went on a shopping frenzy with that money. But lets not discuss how all of you deluted clowns got scammed by a lying Westerner and none of you raised any questions about her ''story'' and fake russian accent…….LOL!
China does have a large debt. Central government debt is about 50% of GDP but local government debt is also about 50% of GDP. A public debt of 100% of GDP is high.

No the UK has and used bombs that are rated as 454kg's or 1000 lbs these are also operationally standard. The 20kgs are almost certainly 227Kg as the other standard bombs (500 lbs))

Ireland animal feed prices will sky rocket. Italy pasta prices will sky rocket. Will be affect of grain exports being cut off.

Am I correct in understanding that Lula and the defense minister are visiting at the same time? Are they meeting separately?

Still think that the likely target of the spring offensive is the nuclear power station…. Thd chaos of a nuclear disaster would suit Ukraine

Putin's Icon….does anyone know what Icon Putin delivered to the battle zone troops??? Thanks always Alexander for your insightful commentary.
jesus, stop shuffle your hands! put on gloves if it's cold out there (sanctions working?)

The best Defense is a good Offense…I’d like to see Russia attack in force.

Mercouris taking about new russian guided bombs, tactics, and jamming systems for 22 minutes, this is my guilty pleasure today😁
It is the last proxy war of US/nato forces I believe.

Aspide is an Italian missile starting as an weapon in the slot equivalent to the USA Sparrow missile. A French system using Italian missile?

The offensive will be a feint to draw rus forces while the real offensive rolls from poland with sufficient air defense
