The one on the left is just odd looking to me. It looks like a fuel tank but isn’t.

Vladimir Putin held a meeting with senior economic officers today, at one end of his 10-metre long table, where he referred to the West as an 'empire of lies'  



Vladimir Putin smirked when he spoke on Russian TV today and wrote off the sanctions being imposed by the West






Vast queues have been seen outside Russian ATMs despite the country's central bank hiking interest rates in a bid to stop a run on the rouble




Pictures show people in Saint Petersburg queuing around the corner to use nearby cash machines, as fears rise of an economic collapse due to biting Western sanctions imposed following Russia's floundering invasion of Ukraine

This is probably only the tip of the iceberg, and I suspect military only turns on ADBS in few exceptions.  LAGR tankers seem to always on. Rest seem to go on/off.

Go back and look at my post again as I added more.  The skies over Poland seem to be are loaded with NATO aircraft.

That actually is bullshit. With free speech, if someone makes an outlandish claim, you should reply with the facts that rebut that claim.

You don't just censor speech because it says something that you don't like.

I have to believe the reason for the long table with Putin on one end and everyone else on the other is he's afraid of an assassination attempt.  I sure there are armed Putin guards near him, and off camera. Apparently, there is not much trust within the Russian government.

I posted the article maybe 30 pages back last night but Wagner left DPRC back at the end of Jan to prepare for the Ukraine conflict.

This was going to happen

The same reason we have the same tweets and videos being posted repeatedly, sometimes over several days. Threads like this are as much of a shit show as the Russian military.

This has been spun as "failed to capture the city" but it's unclear the Russians actually tried to, and instead they seem to have engaged enough to take and inflict losses on armored units, but not get into street to street combat.

Clearly they have lost a lot of armor that they probably didn't expect, owing to that javelins and resiliency of Ukrainian air power (was it flying out of Poland?)

But that's just more friction than expected. They have a lot more where that came from and they are continuing to execute on their plan, and while slowed, they have not been stopped from achieving their goals.

Well, if that ain't a load Russian bullshit.  I guess you missed the bombing and killing of non-combatants. The scared, coward Russians have tried taking cities. They died glorious deaths doing it too.
You mentioned this plan again comrade, care give us the details and where you gained this information. Because the Russian Cowards on the ground don't seem to have much knowledge of a plan.

Hell, I'd be willing to bet that, maybe once in your life, people have mistaken a phrase from you to have a different meaning.  Just once, I'm sure.

No politician on the planet is unfamiliar with the phrase and meaning of The New World Order. In one way or another either for or against it.

Russian soldiers can walk away from this alittle richer


Why are you reposting your own garbage?

So we are going to pay our boys $3000 /month
and
Russians $45000 to surrender......uh huh. Russian propaganda.

These mother fuckers don't even have a will to fight or even bare essentials such as food and petrol. 45000 get out of here with that shit.


Sorry to bust your bubble but that is fact.  


Show me these "facts" yahoo news isn't facts...show me government of Ukraine links.

Why Wagner Group and not Tchaikovsky Group.  No national pride?
