rudi49jr Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 The Russian 1st Guard Tank Army (1GTA) had to retreat from Charkiv Oblast over the last week. 1GTA was intended to lead counter-attacks in the case of a war with NATO. It will likely take years for Russia to rebuild this capability. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just causes a lot of misery and a stronger resolve to fight even harder, as is demonstrated in Zelensky's remarks. I guess Zelensky most be providing some inspiration in a lot of other places. Russia had the second largest military force, including Air Force superiority in the world after US. What happened, was it just propaganda? I am sure now with Putin's current pending nemesis and Russia's obvious impotence, Spring Revolution must in the air even though it's Autumn for a lot the countries he controls. Payback also would possibility be relevant now be in a lot of countries with grudges and stolen territory beside Ukraine. Poland, China, Japan, Finland to name a few, come to mind.

Your supply route across the Dnipro River has been cut off by rocket attacks. Your ammunition dumps keep getting blown up. And you’ve watched thousands of your colleagues flee the battleground after a stunning Ukrainian offensive in the northeast of the country. A Ukrainian Armed Forces spokeswoman, Natalia Humeniuk, reported Monday that a number of “separate” Russian units around the southern city of Kherson had begun suing for peace and were “trying to negotiate with the Ukrainians on surrender and transfer under the auspices of international law.” https://news.yahoo.com/surrender-fever-sweeps-putin-troops-144056989.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general I agree whole heartedly .... however, it would be hard to refrain from being a nice guy if your brother or auntie or gf got shot in the back by these soldiers, or if your sister was raped then shot ?? I couldn't refrain in that situation i'm afraid and I don't think most honest folks would. Just saying ..... but it's a true circumstance.

You should have looked at the link he provided: "The military is hesitating as to whether this is a trap by the Russian army. However, after consulting and carefully inspecting the enemy positions, they agree: the Russian soldier is indeed waving a "white flag", signalling that he wants to surrender. At first, the video was published with the remark that it was taken in Donetsk region. However, OSINT researchers carried out geolocation and learned that the event took place in Kherson region near the village of Pravdino." 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A white flag can very well mean a "surrender" When it is used for a truce, a white flag does not always mean just a truce in and of itself. Please try not to lessen or confuse Ukraine's obvious success. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
