This is one badass grandma.

"Three years had passed since his mother bled out in his arms after a Russian shelling, since a neighbor chipped her grave in the frozen winter of their yard, since soldiers found him alone and took him deeper into the occupied Donetsk territory, where he was put up for adoption."

"Illia’s return in 2022 after weeks in a hospital in occupied Ukraine showed the difficulty of just getting back one child — let alone the tens of thousands of Ukrainian children now at the center of Kyiv’s demands for peace."


"It was March 2022, and for weeks, he and his mother, Nataliia, had cowered in a basement in Mariupol, melting snow to drink and cooking over an open fire when their gas ran out. They ventured outside to look for food — and were badly injured by the Russian shelling of a nearby building. Illia’s legs were bloody and shattered, the back of his left thigh a gaping wound. Nataliia sustained a serious head injury. She dragged her son into a nearby apartment building. They fell asleep inside, arms knotted around each other.

The next morning, Illia awoke to stillness.

A neighbor took Nataliia’s body away. Then, men in Russian uniforms arrived and drove Illia to a hospital in the city of Donetsk, 75 miles from the siege. Orphans from Mariupol filled the third floor. Illia listened to doctors debate whether to amputate his left leg before opting against it. He had surgery without anesthesia, he said, and was later interviewed on camera about his mother’s death by a stranger."



Saw her grandson in a 26sec propaganda flick and said Let's Roll. Crossed 4 borders and into Russia to find him and then bring him home to Ukraine. Absolutely badass.

Trump: Oh, it's just children fighting. Let them go at it for a while. It's a bloodbath over there. I'm not friends with anybody. I stopped Nord Stream 2. I prevented a nuclear war between India and Pakistan. I saved us from radioactive dust blowing over the ocean. No one ever gives me any credit.

Somebody give this guy the Nobel peace prize already!

I hereby award Trump the Nodel Piece Prize for his quest to piece the globe.

(it's close enough he might fall for it)

I think the true takeaway with this is that he told this to Putin during a 2 hour 15 minute phone call with him the other day... He also seemed sort of proud of the duration. Its basically a green light to Putin: Hey if you have to fight you have to fight. And then closes up with the possibility that IF he inserts himself into the conflict (sanctions etc) it could as well be on Ukraine.

Disgusting

Stats on drone warfare on the frontline.

Quote:
I spent over 100 hours compiling and analyzing over 5,000 videos of soldiers trying to escape UAV drones — pulling material from Telegram, Reddit, and other sources. Here is what i found out.
  • A/ 67% survival rate in obstructed environments (buildings, dense forests).
  • B/ 92% death rate in open fields.

Here's something that's affecting that percentage in one way or another: VBAT Drones the AFU have been deploying. A much higher iteration of the WW1 Observation Sausage Balloons.

How pathetic do you have to be to refuse to retrieve your own dead soldiers just so you don't have to pay thier families? They abandon their own fighters but expect the west to not abandon them. Despicable:


*yawn*

So weak. So unoriginal.

No, you just have to be Russian; see their treatment of Russian KIA for the last 3+ years. Hell, they will execute their own returned POWs with a sledgehammer on camera, remember?

All the Russians do is lie and project, and you mimic them like a monkey. Are you ever going to develop some self respect? No money in it right?

It must piss you off to see Ukrainians all take a knee as a KIA is driven to the cemetery. That respect doesn't have an analog in Russia, where people are more concerned about why Yuri's death didn't get them a Lada. You and the psycho slavs are good matches for eachother, I can see why a morally bankrupt pathetic bitch like yourself sides with them.

And now we have the first batch of names being released for the deceased.

An authoritarian regime who snatches people off the streets, sends them to the meatgrinder, and when the other side gives bodies on the deceased back, the authoritarian regime refuses to collect the bodies, for the sole reason of not having to pay the families of the deceased....

This is who you are supporting BTW. A man who refuses to hold elections, kidnaps people who want nothing to do with his war and send them to the front, has had the infrastructure of his country destroyed, losing more and more territory day by day, and continues to beg for weapons and cash for 3 years now...

Yeah, MUCH higher.

VBATS are attaining Holy Weapon status in the AFU, like Baba Yaga, HIMARS, Javelin and MRAPS. They love them. The new versions have so much capability they compete with class 4 stuff, it's nuts. Outstanding endurance and surveillance/detection abilities. Put some Hatchets on it and now you're really talking (air burst, and they can hit moving targets).

Just as important as the weapon system itself, the company that makes it, AI Shield, is really on the fucking ball when it comes to ensuring combat effectiveness. They set up shop in Ukraine last summer, work directly with the AFU face to face. They hire AFU vets regulary, bring many of them to the US for stints of extra technical training. Pretty sure they observe at an operational level when Russians are being surveilled and attacked. Just one of the reasons Ukraine will win.

Someone's still in denial about Ukraine's constitutional ban on elections during war. He's blotted out the Ukrainian parliament's total and unequivocal support of Zelenskyy. Haha I love it. So much impotent rage built on nothing.

Cyka loves his copium, no doubt about it. Zelenskyy just keeps emasculating Putin, and by proxy, his ass sucking e-cheerleaders. Your butthurt tears sustain us cyka, just a reminder.

Idiot thinks that Ukranians are managing to resist based simply on forced recruits, against a numerically superior enemy? Missing cells in vital parts of whatever is supposed to be the brain in his skull. This clueless lying bitch is the best Russia's got defending Putin on these forums? Wow. Tells you all you need to know about the legitimacy of Russia's offensive.

Attack on 30+ communication towers in Sweden.
Looking at you Russia.

https://x.com/front_ukrainian/status/1931369660965921063
Sweden, unknown persons damaged more than 30 communication towers
In all cases, the attackers cut the cables and damaged important elements, without stealing any equipment.

-Starting to wonder if Russia has a masochism kink.

They can't even take on one non-nato country what happens when they finally piss NATO off?
