Putin two days ago addressed the nation and gave a 45 minute history lesson. Called Ukraine Russian land and said he will show them real "decommunisation". Confirmed hit list - says he knows their names, will hunt them down. Also claimed Ukraine plans to make nukes. He ended the speech by recognizing the DPR and LPR Speech: youtu.be/W57I2mzAr9c Previous:

Nooooooo what the hell are you doing goyim you're supposed to be killing each other!
Serious question: Why doesn't Ukraine just surrender? Are they hoping the rest of the world will join in? Do they hope the sanctions (lol) will make Russia give up? Are they unironically hoping for a miracle??

Fog of war is making news difficult to reach us, take everything you see with a grain of salt.
Igor Strelkov's summary of the first day of operations, published a few hours ago
The offensive was completely unexpected and the missile strikes established immediate Russian air and naval dominance.
There are four main theaters of ground operations.
1. Southern Front: Russians launched an offensive north out of Crimea. There was a naval landing at Genichensk, and helicopter landings at Kherson and Novaya Kakhovka. The Ukrainian front collapsed immediately, and now the enemy's army is not present in this area at all. Bridgeheads have been created across the Dnieper for further advances. Attempts by the Ukrainians to form a front are discouraged by airstrikes. Russians reached Melitopol during the night.
The main strike groups will continue their offensive along the Dnieper, to the cities of Zaporozhye and Dnepropetrovsk, towards Nikolaev, and in the rear of the army group in Donbass.
2. Donbass Front: The DPR is conducting a limited offensive towards Volnovakha, in order to threaten Mariupol and link up with the Southern Front. This has tied up thousands of Ukrainian troops.
The LPR offensives across the river have no real strategic objective besides tying up the Ukrainian forces to prevent them from being sent to Kharkov, and to keep them pinned down and encircled. They will continue heavy combat tomorrow to prevent the enemy from withdrawing.

3. The "Russian Front:" Sumy, Konotop, and almost the entire Sumy province were captured; the enemy either did not intend to resist, or had insufficient numbers. Progress is being made towarde Chernigov and Russian units continue to advance deeper and outflank the Ukrainians resisting at Kharkov. Russians cannot allow Kharkov to remain under enemy control, and battles will continue to capture it tomorrow.
4. The Kiev Front: The airborne operation to capture the Gostomel airbase was a complete surprise to Ukrainian command. Now, these forces must link up with those crossing the border at Chernobyl, in order to prevent Ukrainian counterattacks. If the connection is made soon, the fate of Kiev is clear.
In general: Simultaneous attacks in many directions have made the Ukrainian forces the weaker sider on every front. Thousands of them are sitting in Odessa, far away from any battlefield. Thousands more are deployed on the Belarusian border and not seeing any combat.

I don't get how can anyone surrender to Russians, Ukrainians don't have internet or something? I imagine that shit that happens to regular prisoners will be ten times worse for pows
crossboarder here how do you people keep up with this shit, i read everything in 252 and now 253 is close to archiving and that's only this general, can't imagine also reading the sticky
Christopher Hall
I think they believe that if they put up a fight and do so bravely than the rest of the world will be guilted into helping them somehow
Putin wants to be able to bang all the hot ukranian girls he can, and for free

>Statement says "the enemy" has low morale I can honestly believe this. Don't get me wrong, Ukraine will obviously get BTFO sooner than later, but if there is one thing that they have genuine advantage in it's the morale and motivation. Of course, the Russian superiority in everything from technology to numbers will offset that easily.

This is most clean war in history on Russia. No Grad MLRS madness upon civilians for sake of nuking civilians. Accurate cruise missiles strikes with some missfires/jammen/intercepted shit hitting something random and killing little kids (typical for every engagement). I'm proud.

All the Normies are parroting their support for Ukraine now. It’s all so tiring bros. Sure Putin said the Nazi thing but perhaps he’s just fighting on their ground, it’s an incendiary word. Everything else read straight out the NatSoc playbook.
You have no credibility, die already so we can stop talking about your nonexistent country.

Military situation:
Kiev direction: the forces of the Russian SSR landed at the Gostomel airfield, which hold the airfield until the main forces approach. According to the Ukrainian media, a massive landing of Russian troops is planned. Apparently, Ukrainians are being lured into a fire bag in order to deliver a massive blow and crack Kiev's defenses on the eastern flank. The approach of another group of troops is expected from Zhytomyr.
Sumy direction: fierce fighting broke out in the city by midnight. Part of the Sum is on fire. Reinforcements are being partially transferred from Kiev. Konotop has been taken under control.
Kharkiv direction: despite the advance of Russian troops on the northeastern outskirts of the city, the AFU still holds Kharkiv, transferring reinforcements to the area of the Circuses. The forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine undermined the dam at the Pechenezh reservoir.
Kherson direction: several regional districts have been taken under control. The city itself is under the control of the administration. At midnight, aircraft overflights and gaps are marked. The Crimean Canal has been unblocked, the water has gone to the Crimea.
Zaporozhye direction: Melitopol is blocked, Russian troops control the situation in the city. A shock fist is going to advance to Zaporozhye.
The Donbass-Lugansk direction: in some areas, LDPR units have advanced to a depth of up to 7 km and are successfully developing an offensive. Near Kramatorsk, shooting began closer to midnight. The Azov battalions and other Nazi units were destroyed. A massive offensive on Mariupol is expected. In general, the forces of the LDPR tied up a huge grouping of troops in the zone of the "Ukrainian operation".

For the same reason Finland didn't surrender to Soviets in 1939, and why Poland did not surrender to Soviets in 1920.

>What now? They're still pushing down from Pripyat. It'll slow the advance but not by much.
Ryan Carter
Odessa direction: in the morning, the Ukrainian Navy base in Ochakov was destroyed. In the evening, the Snake Island in the north-west of the Black Sea was taken. A naval amphibious operation is expected in Odessa itself.
Mykolaiv direction: according to unconfirmed reports, Russian armored vehicles are on the approaches to the capital of the city.
The Chernobyl nuclear power plant was taken under control in order to avoid provocations from Ukraine.
The command and control system of the troops has been disrupted, almost all the forces of the Air Force and air Defense of Ukraine have been destroyed, the centers of information and psychological operations have been disabled.
Political situation:
Anti-Russian rallies were held in major cities of Russia and the world. They attracted an audience of popular beauty bloggers, ticktockers and opinion leaders who had nothing to do with politics until now. The West presents this as a violation of freedom of speech. In Ukraine, Russians are openly encouraged to participate in mass rallies.
In the UK, they promised to destroy the Russian economy. The rest of the G7 countries got off with routine sanctions against VTB, Russian banks and state corporations tied to the defense industry. No one will disable SWIFT.
In Ukraine, weapons are distributed to everyone in a simplified manner. The departure of men aged 18 to 60 years outside the country is prohibited. The entrance to Kiev is closed. Some railways and highways are not working.
I don't get it, what side is defecting in this video?

Kill yourself retard. You don't deserve your cititzenship.
Sebastian Watson
Did you take a look at the map? Russian troops are already beyond Melitopol, which means they advanced something like 300 kilometers in 16 hours in the South.
Oliver Cooper
Come on, hohols would never lie to boost morale of their collapsing country. I mean what the hell, they are so good that they've beaten VDV at the same airport 5 times already. Not sure how Russians keep reviving them, tho.
>Sumy province were captured I've literally seen footage of fighting there during the night.

Airspace is closed and we can't risk sending in one of our GOOD stealth fighters, nor are the shitty cheaper kind operational enough to go in there.

So Kiev falling is only a matter of time at this point, right? Even if they don't hold the airport, the troops seem to be closing in from the north.
lets say i get a hold of ak47 but i never fired a gun in real life, but played a lot of first person shooters, would i be able to shoot it good enough to kill someone?
He's on the senate intelligence committee so he's getting some US military intel. It's not all accurate though; last night he said that the Russians would attack an airport to the east of Kiev, and as it turns out they attacked Hostomel which is to the west (makes more sense too because it kettles Kiev into the east of the country).
Landon Gomez
The sooner Ukraine is over, the better for everyone.

Tyler Parker
thats rich. you know russia keeps it's casualties a state secret and literally incinerates bodies of their own troops rather than repatriate them?
Levi Carter
That's a ukranian.
Xavier Green
That's exactly what's going to happen, only the Russians will also sweep north from the west bank of the Dnieper to deny its use as a defensive line. They already crossed the river and took Kherson. Ukrainians won't be stupid enough to let themselves be encircled and will retreat from the east, but the very second they do abandon their entrenched positions, the Donbass forces, which remained static all day today, will rush forward and fuck their asses raw.
Elijah Phillips
yes they overwhelmed elite paratroopers with garrison units whilst not having air superiority within range of enemy artillery, makes perfect sense. I have a feeling the ukies got ripped the fuck up in reality
Noah Ross
Fuck the mutt
Ryder Gray
Poor inbred drunk retard, he’ll have to watch his women get raped before he gets brained.
Jace Parker
Ukraine's leadership is going to get their men massacred because they're too prideful about holding the line in Donbas. They're going to get encircled once the Crimean front links up with the North.
They need to retreat behind the Dnieper if they even want a chance of holding Kiev
So it seems, but I hope ukranians can hold out in urban warfare
Eli Carter
Depends on the range.
