Excuse Me Reaction GIF by Mashable

Here is a pretty long interview with one Russian soldier from the early days in the Kyiv invasion and stationed around Bucha. Talks about officers lobbing grenades at soldier's feets for refusing orders. That his CO was so paranoid about a mutiny that he was holed up in a separate area, pulling off recon troops from scouting UA area and instead had them posted as guards around his quarters. Anyone that tried to visit him was strip searched for weapons. Lots of fascinating stuff in this one.

Best part though is when this Russian captive gets to talk with his mother. She starts off concerned about his safety and how badly the Ukrainians are treating him but he's adamant that they treat him better than his own army. She then tells him she's worried now that he may like it over there so much that he might not want to return which got a big round of laughter from everyone in the room. Again another one of those cases where the older generation buys into the propaganda but the front line warriors get to see the truth. This is one of the Russians that I'm rooting to return home, resume a normal life, and be honest about the bullshit reasons for Putin's war.

I like how the best video they could get has the grenades missing their targets by 50-100 feet.

A ceasefire in Ukraine without the withdrawal of Russian troops is impossible, adviser to the head of the President's Office Mykhailo Podoliak said.

"We hear [from Western partners]: let's cease fire. Without the withdrawal of Russian troops. And how is that? That is, we will cease fire at the position where the Russian military stands today - that's what they actually wanted. Because then they will control part of the territory of Ukraine. But we don't need it. The Russian world is poorly perceived in Ukraine. Today is not 2014. Our people simply hate the Russians. Especially in the eastern and southern regions. And we cannot give away parts of our territories where thoroughly pro-Ukrainian people live. We have to release them all. And these regions will be liberated without fail," Podoliak said on the air of the telethon on Tuesday

You know how everyone is showing the clip of Mikhail Khodaryonok talking about the current situation for Russia?  He's the pundit who was actually painting a realistic picture rather than spouting the usual propaganda.  Here's what he said in February...

So we give them St. Javelins, and all the sudden Russian tanks start blowing up.  Then we give them artillery and all the sudden Russian fire basess start blowing up.  Now we give them SAM''s and Russian jets start blowing up.  Is there a theme here?  Can we give them F15's next?  Stealth bombers?  What?

How about A-10s or Apaches? We'd get some fun Twitter videos out of that.

As was said earlier, he's tempering expectations to set up for Russia to settle for lesser results from the "special military operation." The propagandists have set insane expectations that aren't going to be met.

I'm noticing the vids of artillery hits by the Ukes are showing bigger and more accurate hits as time goes on. Gotta love seeing those western weapons come into play.

Yup.

I'm guessing we'll see less vids of grenade drops by commercial drones.... mostly because they're not needed.

This.

And, it's not like every unit has access to the top notch stuff.  If platoon 900 wants to rig up a cheap quadcopter to fuck with the Russians who think they're safe while they eat their potatoes, that's a plus.

Re: Azovstal surrenders

Clearly surrendering to Russian captivity is one of the worst fates you could have. My only guess is that those who surrendered were so badly injured that they were almost guaranteed to die if they didn’t. The only thing that have going for them is that the Ukrainian military knows who was there and therefore should be expected to be alive. However, I’m sure the Russians will say that many of them “did not survive their injuries”.

This is based on the idea that the “healthy” defenders are still holed up in the bunkers, which I think is the case.

‼️ Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine: Russia is trying to attract foreign media to create fakes 1/8

2/8 Realizing that the world community no longer believes the false reports of Russian TV channels, the Kremlin propagandists decided to involve European journalists and world media in their activities.

3/8 According to the military intelligence of Ukraine, the Department of Information and Mass Communications of the Ministry of Defense of the occupying country is urgently preparing a press tour of foreign journalists to the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.

4/8 From May 18 to 21, the occupiers plan to show the media destroyed areas of Mariupol. To accuse Ukraine of destroying the city and massacring civilians.

5/8 Russian propagandists have already brought to Mariupol fragments of Ukrainian ammunition collected from all occupied districts of Donetsk region, and are preparing "local eyewitnesses" brought from Donetsk and Horlivka to tell journalists about the "crimes" of Mariupol defenders.

6/8 The so-called “press tour” also envisages the group's departure from Rostov-on-Don and journalists' visits to Kherson, Nova Kakhovka, Skadovsk, Armyansk and Donetsk, where a meeting with Kremlin puppet D. Pushylin is planned.

7/8 The Russian Ministry of Defense is trying to involve representatives of the media from France, the United States, Germany, Japan, Greece, China, Belarus, India, Venezuela, Bulgaria and the UAE to participate in the "press tour".

8/8 We warn foreign journalists about the plans of the aggressor country's propagandists to make them accomplices in the creation of fake materials and remind them of criminal liability for illegal crossing of the state border of Ukraine and entry into the territory of an independent state.

The racists pulled a cannon from the museum and set it up at a checkpoint in Kherson.

The "flying tanks" that the Russian defense industry was so proud of are now fighting the Russian invaders. One such tank is the T-80 BVM, which was trophied by the 93rd Cold Yar Brigade.

The flip side to this is how many hand me down MIGs, and associated weapons, are out there? Yes, sending F platform planes to countries already transitioning to that platform and thus allowing those countries to send the MIGs onto UKR is the quickest way to improve UKR airpower presently but in the long run UKR has to transition to the F platform as they will not be getting any new MIGs from RU. The sooner that process starts the better.
