The shackles should've been released ages ago. US to Discuss Permitting Ukraine ATACMS Strikes on Russia. The U.S. will this week discuss the possibility of Ukraine using its long-range weaponry to strike targets deep inside Russia, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Tuesday. |

PooTin racks up yet another war crime. Russia Strikes Red Cross Convoy in Donetsk. Three Red Cross staff members were killed by artillery strikes in the eastern Ukraine region of Donetsk on Thursday, the organization said.PooTin and Adolf Benji are just 2 peas from the same pod. |

I wonder if PooTin privately regrets the war that he started now. Ukraine Captures Multiple Villages As Kursk Incursion Advances. As more support flows into the Ukraine. Ukraine Receives Major Bohdana Howitzer Boost With NATO Support. Ukraine's armed forces have received 18 domestically made Bohdana self-propelled, mounted howitzer units, funded by Denmark, marking a new chapter in NATO-aligned defense cooperation amid the ongoing war with Russia.Now if only they could get approval to strike targets where they really need to. |

It looks like the Ukrainians have PooTin's Black Sea fleet is on the run yet again. Russian Black Sea Fleet Flees Reserve Base Amid ATACMS Threat. While Ukrainian forces continue to make gains that could cut off more of PooTin's war criminals. Russia War Map Shows Ukraine Carve Out New Incursion into Kursk. Meanwhile PooTin makes new long term plan to get more troops. I hope that he's patient with this 1. Russians Told To Make Babies During Work Breaks to Help Birth Rate. And I'm surprised that PooTin isn't blaming the Ukraine for part of Russia burning yet. Over 140 Fires Engulf Russian Region Bordering Ukraine. But I guess that he'll get around to doing that. Then there's the unrest amongst serfs. Russian soldiers record eerie video predicting their deaths, accuse commander of corruption. |

That's another hit for PooTin, but I have to ask why these agents of his keep getting picked up in Florida? Russian Man Arrested in Florida Over Smuggling US Parts for PooTin's Drones. No mention of whether he was in a Trump owned residential unit block like the others caught doing the same thing so far. As more bad news flows in for him. Explosions Rock Russian Air Base Hosting Putin's Nuclear Bombers. Russia Suffers 'Massive Casualties' After HIMARS Strike on Donbas Base. Ukraine's F-16 Fleet Gets a Boost as NATO Ally Prepares New Batch of Jets. NATO Ally Uses Seized Russian Assets To Fund Artillery for Ukraine. And he maybe about to lose more of his war criminals. Kursk Map Shows 'Gray Zone' of Surrounded Russian Troops. So much for his 5 day war, some think that he has a deadline now. PooTin Aiming for Victory in Ukraine by 2026: Defense Experts. |

Why do Russians place such facilities only 1.5 ... 2 kilometers outside the city limits of a historic town with 13K inhabitants, unbelievable... |

More of PooTin's ammo dumps are getting blown away. Satellite Images Show Destruction of Russian Ammunition Depot in Air Strike. Fire Engulfs Russian Mercenary Base After Night of Air Strikes. He's lost quite a lot of those of late and it's not the only thing that he's losing. Half of Russians Want PooTin To Withdraw Troops From Ukraine. And all he does in reply is to attack Ukrainian citizens. Russia Targets Kharkiv Apartments in Glide Bomb Attack. |

While PooTin constantly complains about western support for Ukraine he conveniently forgets about those supporting his war. Russia Secretly Building War Drones in China. Russia is building military drones in China, according to an exclusive released by Reuters on Wednesday.To which China throws up a different story. China Accuses U.S. of Supplying Russia With Weapon Components. While [url=https://www.newsweek.com/ukraine-starlink-russia-shahed-135-drone-elon-musk-spacex-1959563]Ukraine Discovers Starlink on Downed Russian Shahed Drone. Are these being supplied by China or through Kyrgyzstan. Europe's Skyrocketing Trade With Russian Neighbor Raises Questions. The Central Asian country of Kyrgyzstan has been inundated with imported goods, including many from Europe, since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, prompting experts to question the international community's commitment to its sanctions regimes.Meanwhile PooTin keeps on changing his his so called "red lines" PooTin Has Redrawn His Nuclear Red Line (yet again). |

It seems that PooTin doesn't want to hear the bad news of his "meat grinder" actions and he certainly doesn't want his pawns to know either. Russia Scraps Population Census As War Casualties Mount. But are they just "mercenaries"? 'Chinese Mercenaries' Fighting for Russia Killed in Ukraine. |

It seems that PooTin doesn't want to hear the bad news of his "meat grinder" actions and he certainly doesn't want his pawns to know either.He knows and don't cares. He thinks that's what soldiers in Russian Federation (RF) forces are for... to die in heroic battles defending Russia. Heroic is what propaganda paints to be 'heroic'. But what he definitely wants to hide from the RF citizens is the extremely unequal distribution of war casualties among the various peoples of RF. Asian Buryats and Tuvinians are a hundred times more frequent among war dead than ethnic Russians (in proportion to their population share). Still fewer Russians from Moscow and St. Petersburg died in Ukraine. Population census of the RF always have been detailed, broken down into its different federal subjects (autonomous republics, resp. Russian oblasts), dozens of different nationalities, urban or rural population, male or female, everything logged in great detail. The changes to these demographic data are now probably a state secret. The results from previous population census 2020 (the latest, I know of) are still accessible: https://rosstat.gov.ru/vpn/2020/Tom5_Nacionalnyj_sostav_i_vladenie_yazykami Itogi VPN-2020.

Some stats are out for what kills most of PooTin's war criminals. Russian Troops' Most Common Cause of Death Revealed in Report. Nearly three-quarters of Russian soldiers die due to one cause, a survey conducted by military doctors has found.And is seems that some of his imported war criminals don't want to take any part in those stats either. Russia’s plan with Kim Jong Un has been heralded as “the first step to a world war”, but it appears their partnership is off to a rocky start. Russia’s military is juggling multiple headaches in its gruelling war in Ukraine, with reports now emerging of a wild man hunt for deserted soldiers on the frontlines. |

The desertion has ignited a frantic search by Kremlin forces to locate them..........Poor mooks. Even in peace times here in former East Germany, there frequently were Soviet soldiers of occupation forces serving as conscripts who fled their ranks. They were normally confined to enclosed Soviet military areas, never allowed to leave their barracks during free time. Only officers who lived with their families outside of barracks in German towns were allowed to move freely during off-service hours. Officer's children attended special Soviet schools (in German garrison towns) and had access to special shops (better food supply, chocolade, alcohol, ... than East German shops). Conscripts had many reasons for desertion: e.g. Dedovshchina (violence, abuse of juniors by the more senior conscripts), psychological problems... Deserters were hunted without mercy like stray dogs by Soviet military police. Even German population noticed such manhunts. Rumours said they often were shot on the spot and if catched alive were locked up for years in punishment units somewhere in Siberia. Seems in Ukraine now, they instantly become storm troopers (suicide missions). The moment they flee their ranks, they become traitors; state enemies. I also don't want to imagine how Russian POWs are treated who were returned from Ukrainian custody (who obviously haven't fought as ordered). |

Russian Troops' Most Common Cause of Death Revealed in Report. Been that way since WW1 at least, Artillery incl mortars cause ~75% of deaths, followed by machine guns. |

In second place at 14.7 percent were fatalities due to gunshot injuries from small arms, with the vast majority of incidents (83.7 percent) from single wounds......Single wounds either indicate well trained Ukrainian soldiers or snipers... The alternative explanation is many gunshots were not actually fatal, but subsequent infections were. The rapid evacuation of frontline casualties does not seem to exist in the Russian Army. The military medical analyst supposedly doesn't dare to criticise noxexistant MEDEVAC or mobile field hospitals... |

It looks like Russians will be in for a sobering time. Russia's Alcohol Empire Suffers Devastating Quadruple Blow. While this news won't make PooTin any happier. PooTin Lacks Support As Only 14 Percent of Russians Back His Foreign Policy. As his orcs wonder where their pay is. Russian Pilots Leave Ominous Warning to PooTin on Bomb Bound for Kursk. |
