Any news of Russian incursions in Lviv and surrounding cities in Western Ukraine?
Levi Howard
Come and get me, faggot
Ian Diaz
How is the Russian economy looking? should I tell Chaim to pull out or buy now?
Owen Stewart
unconfirmed jewposting, they're all active only on the eastern fronts
Elijah Lewis
So we can say that Russia/Putin are the baddies here now, right? Putin lied and said he only wanted control of the protest areas in the east, and now he's invading the whole country. He's also sent extremely hostile threats to the west including US and UK. We will give him a piece of our minds? At He end of the day, he started it. And if something doesn't happen soon, he will invade the rest of europe and we'll all be speaking russian and living under a non democratic dictatorship guided by moscow
Charles Foster
An advisor to the Ukrainian interior ministry told NBC that Russian forces entered Chernobyl. Fighting has erupted there..during the fighting, a nuclear waste storage facility was destroyed.
Azovbros how could this be.... i thought russian shills were lying
Joseph Walker
What? I didn't hear about any forces fighting there.
Michael Hernandez
>Russians crossing the Dnieper. >Completely unopposed, of course. Dnieper is probably the only real physical obstacle for Russia. If Ukraine wants to prevent a Russian advance, then Dnieper is really the only natural hurdle.
Regardless, the hardened positions around Luhansk/Donbass seem to be avoided for the time being by Russia. Guess that is where they expected resistance.
>THERE IS NO WAY THIS ISNT A FALSE FLAG Probably not false flag, but I bet 100$ that it was Ukrainians who made the damage and not Russia.
Carter Richardson
THEY GONA BURN THE RED FOREST AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SEND NATO
Why? There are nukes everywhere, they are long range.
Here is an american nuclear b52 that was loitering over the border this morning.
What everyone should be concerned about is the Zapohrizia nuclear power plant. It is one of the largest in Europe and located at a strategic crossing over the dnieper.
Matthew Evans
That actually looks like he fired two anti-air missiles, but since he is too low one of them accidentally hit the ground because it takes time to fire the engine. Happens all time in DCS. Otherwise I have no idea what the fuck he is doing so low with air-to-ground missiles.
Leo Collins
what a satisfying sound, it sounds just like a zipper
There is no way that this was an actual ground strike. For starters, it's a fighter. Looks to be a Mig 29 or Su 27 maybe. And you would never, ever, do a ground strike from such a low distance above ground. This looks to be a fighter trying to offload some extra weight because he was getting danger low.
Adrian Gray
Ukraine is so poor it can't provide its soldiers with patches
Owen Sullivan
>pretty sure that classifies as false flag Potato potata then. IMO false flag requires intention. Bad aiming does not qualify (unless the incident is used for spin/propaganda). >It's just an ominous sign for how the war will develop in the coming days, if the Ukies abandon places like that. So what do they have left? From what I see the positions near the Luhansk/Donetsk border are still holding up somewhat, including Mauriopol.
But Ukraine is quickly running out of connecting roads between their point defences.
Evan Russell
the kid's fine, just scared of loud noise. impact mustve been pretty good distance away or the video wouldnt have made it to twitter
James Sullivan
This is the big question. Certainly looks like we are at least overhyping this "invasion". Starting to look like only real fighting is relief of sieges laid on Luhansk and Donetsk which would mean Putin was telling truth. Rest of it looks like Russia degrading Ukraine military capability. Like we would do in places like Syria. So is Russia taking over Ukraine or punishing Ukraine for attempted genocide ? Also can't forget that US, Canada, Germany, etc. have pledged $$$$ to Ukraine for military shopping spree, so defense contractors and Congress are getting paid.
Brayden Stewart
Seems like Russian advance is going very slowly actually. They barely touched the country.
Easton Jenkins
>In Odessa, the object of the National Guard of Ukraine is on fire. Firefighters are on site
They haven't been bombed like we have so no point in telling them
Brandon Miller
yeah, they have surrounded Kharkov and Kiev and have rolled straight through Kherson.
Jordan Martinez
BTW OP, in next bread add /GPG/ to the title, after /UG/ Helps people not mix it with uhg peasants
Nicholas Rodriguez
it's a punitivie expedition like Putin said. He is not staying in Ukraine. If he does it will go bad for Russia.
Luis Moore
>Russia/Putin are the baddies here now they were always the baddies. they are going to force the hand of the west and cause themselves total annihilation.
What is it, its age restricted and I'm not making a fucking twitter account to view it
Brody Garcia
UPDATE ON CHERNOBYL
After investigating, the Advisor to the Minister of Internal Affairs did say that fighting is ongoing in Chernobyl, but "if a shell were to go astray it could destroy the nuclear waste facility or disturb nuclear waste." NBC made a translation error.
Vatniks aiming down a bridge, apparently. Surely the Ukrainians aren't trying to cross and attack, right?
Ian Jackson
that's common fucking sense and i'm 100% sure they were issued some form of PSA of leaflets since 2014
Parker Miller
shouldn't be promoting this vatnik/bolshevik/fascist authoritarian side of the world. isn't the west the much lesser of evils here?
Liam Sullivan
If the map being from the infamous Jihadi Julian wasn't enough of a clue, this map is incredibly inaccurate. There are confirmed reports (as in, confirmed by Western media) that Russian troops are already on the outskirts of Kyiv, have crossed the Dniepr at Kherson, and have surrounded Kharkiv.
Benjamin Howard
famous punitive expeditions >Pancho Villa Expedition 1916-18 USA loses >Sino Vietnam War 1979 China loses >Russia Ukraine War 2022 ?
Colton Moore
How many hohol troops near Donetsk? Maybe they want to encircle them?
Adam Gomez
Hundreds of Rifles and rocket launchers captured in what seems to be an azov battalion base since there are patches with azov insignia
Camden Kelly
retarded fear mongering, if power stations weren't targeted, why would a useless empty massive radioactive hazard be targeted when there's absolutely no target anywhere near it
Gavin Morgan
>They're not that retarded oh sea monkey bro, if only you knew...
Russia has unit-level artillery. IE, they use alot of it and there is no chain of command for approving missions. Some shells will miss.
Christopher Wright
No fucking way this is real, not with the invasion only a few hours in and paratroopers probably still in combat. Must be training.
Zachary Collins
this
Ian Foster
>Starting to look like only real fighting is relief of sieges laid on Luhansk and Donetsk Airborne troops were delivered to antonovka airport and they are holding it so far. CNN reporter even spoke to their commander. Here is mp4: www.2ch DOT hk/po/src/46450176/16457132678941.mp4
Levi Butler
they are probably territorial guards. pretty sad.
Ian Walker
More like destroying Ukrainian civil infrastructure
Jace Foster
Did they ever take the airport then? Kind of just stopped hearing about it.
>at the end of the day, he started it >meanwhile OTAN keeps expanding until asphyxiate Russia in her own borders Fuck off, Putin has offered the demilitarization of Ukraine as a solution and all the answers I hear from the West are pro-war and anti-Russia. This shit didn't start yesterday.
Gavin Rogers
A bunch, around 60k according to Vatnik info. That is in fact the largest concentration of Ukie troops, so it will be left for last.
Nathan Harris
this is going to get very, very gory for russia
Isaac Taylor
yeah, both the chinese and american armies are jokes
Lincoln Anderson
>none in pryp'yat.
Ryder Cruz
Any thing on amphibious operations by the Russians?
my point is punitive expeditions usually don't go so well for the invader for whatever reason.
Alexander Johnson
You made her cry, Russia
Blake Clark
Jihadi Julian ist nicht die hellste Kerze auf der Torte.
Colton King
i still feel bad for the kid
Cameron Morales
they are going faster in the west, where ukranians didnt expected an attack and didnt defend, its likely that before tonight russia will take a big city
there was an small island near romania that they just took, but odessa is well defended, so its unlikely that they will try a naval invasion
Jace Lewis
He's having cocktails on a beach in Tel Aviv already.
Grayson Jones
two days old news
Thomas Gray
No, it's not real.
The point of paratroopers versus helicopter insertion is that you can drop paras at a battalion or brigade level all at once. There are only a few parachutes in this video. It's training.
Jayden Ward
Old news by now, and judging by the complete lack of response it fell flat.
