Ukraine counteroffensive inches forward; Putin dismisses prospects of peace talks

A delegation of African leaders led by South African President Cyril Ramaphosa met with Putin in St. Petersburg on Saturday to try to spur peace talks between Russia and Ukraine.

Putin replied he was ready to review any peace plan proposal, but he poured cold water on the African initiative by listing numerous reasons why the proposed plan wasn’t meeting Russian demands. These include Russia’s right to recognize the independence of the Russian-occupied Donbas region — a red line for Kyiv.

What is Putin blabbering about ? He annexed the Donbas. Now he wants to declare it independent ?

I watched his round table with bloggers a handful of days ago, he appeared to be blabbering there too, didn't look strong at all. He probably has gone senile already.

 start the week with some very good news, Orcs are canon meat feeders

This is an existential war for the Ukrainian people and nation.

On the other side, this is an existential war for ONE MAN -- genocidal war criminal Putin.

There is no doubt which side is much more motivated.

I hope that's enough to oversome EVIL.

Kremlin officials turn to heavy drinking to cope with war stress:

Putin and his cronies can deny as much as they want as words from their mouths have no credit at all... images/videos speak louder and tell a different narrative then the one the Russians put forward

Kyiv keeps quiet, Russia lying, there is very heavy fighting but what's going on?

 

Jake Breo has an excellent new video putting it into perspective. Apparently not bad. Note Jake's comment about progress after the Allied Forces broke through Normandy lines versus before.

I think the battle is ferocious and there are heavy casualties on both sides.

I wouldn't be surprised if losses were balanced.

The reason for this is that the West didn't give Ukraine F-16 in time, apparently Ruzzian helos are giving them a hard time. Ukrainian losses would be much less if they had air superiority or at least could defend against the RU helos.

 

The important thing for Ukraine is to breakthrough to Mariupol, Berdiansk or Melitopol, even if they lose half their equipment.

The Ukrainians are true heroes of our time, they are fighting for all of us.

Russia can't deny it anymore, they blew up the dam in an act of savagery killing 1,000's of innocent civilians

Evidence suggests the Ukrainian dam collapsed due to a controlled explosion set off inside the structure. An international investigative group says it's 'highly likely' Russian forces were behind the attack.

I don't know why everybody loses so much time with this dam demolition.
It's clear the Ruzzians did it, it made sense from a military point of view, I don't see it as being such a big thing compared to the other horrible acts committed by the Ruzzians.

It's just one more item to add to the list of their war crimes, which is already quite long.

Russia uses “disposable troops”. Journalists at the BBC and Mediazona have recorded the names of more than 25,000 Russian combatants killed in Ukraine. The typical KIA soldier isn’t who he used to be.

Lots of chatter, videos and articles of the latest developments between Wagner and the Russian military on twitter at the moment. Factions of Wagner have entered Rostov-on-Don. Main routes are closed, movement in Moscow with Russian military vehicles in the streets. Oh how I hope a coup would happen, but at the very least this is a significant development.

 

Kremlin accuses mercenary chief of ‘armed mutiny’ after he vows retribution for dead fighters

Russian leaders accused the powerful head of the Wagner mercenary group of an attempted coup on Friday after he vowed to retaliate against the country’s military command for allegedly killing thousands of his fighters.

Officials boosted security in Moscow and launched a criminal investigation into Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the paramilitary group that has seen some of the toughest fighting in Ukraine, “on charges of armed mutiny” after he vowed to stop the “evil” of the military leadership.

“Those who destroyed our lads, who destroyed the lives of many tens of thousands of Russian soldiers, will be punished. I ask that no one offer resistance,” Prigozhin said in a series of audio messages on his official Telegram channel.

Yes a lot going on behind the scenes.

Not looking good for russia at all but great for the the Ukrainian people.

Lots of videos on Youtube about this already.

More to come i am sure.

 

More on coup attempt.

 

Special Operations Forces (SSO) commanded by Major General Valery Flustikov have taken over control of the Ministry of Defence headquarters on Frunzenskaya in Moscow. LINK

 

It is reported that Wagner's column has passed the first checkpoints. They say they are on their way to Novocherkassk, where the army headquarters are. It is also known that a column of 400 vehicles left Millerovo in the direction of Moscow. LINK

 

Russian military convoy heading toward the Ministry of Defence headquarters in Moscow LINK (video!)

 

first  blood

 

Prigozhin: a military helicopter just opened fire on Wagner's convoy and was shot down by Wagner PMC. LINK (note lots of garbage in these links, presumably from Russian cyber ops?)

 

Disloyalty goes deep. Didn't think all those people really support Putin.

 

VCHK-OGPU - from their source: "The attempts to act against Prigozhin come solely from FSB and Russian Guards. The Ministry of Defense has withdrawn itself, lower-rank officers either simply refuse to follow orders, or openly support Wagner.  LINK

 

You can follow Anton Gerashchenko who is tracking events.

 

mind blowing.

 

it's interesting to note that there are at least 3 factions:

- FSB: hates GRU, Ministry of Defense and Wagner. not sure what military support the FSB has
- GRU and Wagner share a base near Moscow, Russian SSO (Flustikov) was transferred from GRU to MoD. I think it's safe to say Flustikov is friendly to Wagner, otherwise what would be the "point" of securing headquarters ?

- Ministry of Defense: supposedly Putin's faction, so it would also include Rosgvardia

 

and we still haven't heard from the Chechens in the last couple of days

From looking at the link and posts inside if the feed it looks like a civil war is about to break out in Russia, either that or a serious coup attempt.  One wonders however, if it is not a false flag operation.

It does. But may be more about different factions making choices after a little shooting. My gut feel is there a whole lot of people in Russia tired of Putin.

 

Reports now that Wagner PMC has taken the downtown of Rostov-on-Dov without any resistance. So Russian military didn't do anything after it had one helicopter shot down. LINK

 

-- There is a Russian police car at the end of Wagner's column, assisting ...

--  Wagner PMC tanks have surrounded the Defence Ministry building in Rostov-on-Don (displacing Russian military who surrounded it not long before.)    LINK

 

Igor Sushko is posting a lot of videos real time.

 

Next hoping Kadyrov has surrendered just in case would be a great end to the night of the long knives now taking place very funny scenes coming out of Rostov live now ????

Hopefully it’s the real deal I’ve also worried the Russians may be trying to get the Ukrainians to commit their big push I’m sure all the western intelligence agencies are watching extremely closely and advising the Ukrainians salva Ukraine ???????? evict the invaders 

is it a "lovers quarrel"  and a nasty divorce on the horizon or is it just propaganda to divert attention from the real problem
