I know there were civilians in the background, but the guy was…carrying an AK of some sort on his back. He also…wasn't moving very tactically on a battlefield.


Looks like police by the way he's dressed. And by everyone's reaction they don't seem to necessarily anticipate being on a battlefield as opposed to perhaps being in the general area, but somewhat removed.

After action pic reportedly from a drone spotted artillery strike against another supply convoy near Kiev.



I actually think I can make out at least two fuel trucks which would help explain the absolute inferno that appears to have taken place.

We have already seen the Ukes use drones to spot for arty and once again, just shows unprepared the Russians are in this area. Also explains the great pains our own military is taking in anti-drone tech and operations. I can't find it now, but way early in the invasion, the Ukrainian government officially put out a call for anyone with a drone. Didn't matter what kind, if it flew, it was needed. Was actually the first "call to arms" I remember seeing from the Uke MOD. They know what was important.....or we hinted it to them.

So that 40 mile long line of vehicles. Just about every picture I have seen the picture doesn't seem to have any people around. It almost appears the vehicles are abandoned.

I know that is not possible…..but dang those pictures
Its also 30 to 40 degrees. Alot of those guys were probably inside those trucks... running out of fuel.

Just a reality check on how woefully unprepared NATO is in terms of ground troops and ground equipment everything but air essentially months away if they started today. Russian mobilization has been ongoing for a year

Just saw another video of at least 8 D30 122mm artillery guns arrayed in firing position captured by the Ukes. Looks like at least two were destroyed though. Guessing drones. Reportedly near Mykolaiv.

These things are old, but they still don't grow on trees. A whole artillery battery out of action. I saw it on Telegram which is wonky if you don't have that app. I'll link the video but it's choppy on my machine. Just an FYI.

Was actually wondering deep down if our staging of the 82nd in Poland is getting "extra supplies" shipped over. Drop in the bucket but sure as **** wouldn't hurt either. Every planeload matters.

I actually hope we will never know but if I were in charge......

Are all these Russian convoy ambushes happening cause Ukrainians are well trained and armed, or are the Russians just really bad at security?

I wouldn't be so sure that many of those vehicles haven't been deserted. Put yourself in the place of the poorly led crews.

Situation:
1. You've been stuck for 4-6 days.
2. It's freezing and dark.
3. You haven't seen a officer above the rank of Lieutenant since you crossed the border.
4. Out of fuel.
5. Dead battery and no tactical radio.
6. Last call home before cell phone died was confusing because the folks back in Russia have no idea what's going on here.
7. Dry rations are gone.

COAs
1. Remain with the truck while freezing and starving and wonder when the Ukrainians attack.
2. Desert and try to make it back to the border following the road north n foot (and perhaps be shot for desertion)
3. Desert through the flooded wodds and try to surrender to Ukrainians before dying of hypothermia with waterlogged boots and trenchant causing flesh to tear off with every step.
4. Eat a bullet.

They are in a very desperate situation. The corruption of the officer corps mand they are not part of a cohesive unit but inan every man for himself life or death struggle.

Poland just requested 40,000 more troops. Poland is likely source of planes still operating in Ukrainian AF. Lotta alphabets involved in Russian logistical problems imho SOF acting at night and utilizing convenient Turkish drones currently 16,000 foreign troops in Ukrainian foreign legion you all connect the dots. Excellent thread keep it up ignore the slow day on Generai board posts

You're going to see the Russian borders close too many people trying to escape. Probably too late to stop the assassins unleashed Vlad sleep with one eye open. You are going to see boosted air from NATO to stop heavy bombers no no fly but it won't stop AA and polish migs

And there it is. Moscow is effectively, if not in name, under martial law. A sign that Putin is increasingly afraid of his own people.
