This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

I think there are 2 possibilities. Ukraine doesn't have the resources or possibly the Russians are taking the cheese so to speak.
Unfortunately I think the former may be more likely but I'm trying to convince myself of the latter. For the latter to work there would have to be a lot of trust in intelligence. The Ukrainians would have had to be disciplined in baiting the Russians and allowing them to think they were lacking resources and this would have assumed risk and losses in order to be convincing. But Russians haven't been willing to commit if you could frustrate the Russians draw them out get them to take the trap then you could land a devastating blow. Might be wishful thinking.
Yea it's too bad they can't even do a guerilla style attack on the convoy or block the road somehow even. They did blow up a couple smaller convoys so hopefully they can get this one. The more they mess with Russia's supply lines, the harder it will be for Russia to take and hold Kiev.
 
Great thread, staggering events. Question for anybody with expertise. What the hell is is a “thermobaric” weapon? Supposedly the Russians are working to get these into Kiev, maybe as early as tonight.
Uses the O2 in the air to create extremely high temps and a massive shock wave. It will suck the air out of the lungs of anyone in range. Very useful against people hiding underground. Like in subway tunnels and such.

If the news about the MiGs is true, the Russians are gonna need to get that stuff moved pretty soon.
 
sadly, this thread seems to have jumped the shark.

separately, have you noticed fewer communications from zelensky?

We should have 10 drones fully loaded flown in and given to Ukraine TONIGHT. Shit we can control them from Des Moines. No joke. We have a NG unit that flies drones over seas. blow up first 3 miles and last 3 miles. I guarantee you will see soldiers leaving their vehicles and retreating. They don't want to be there.

maybe it's been explained already (though i believe i've perused every post in this megathread) but what happened to the warplanes the ukraine airforce already has? i mean why do they already need donated planes on day 4?

Well there go my spring break plans! 😡
I wanted to make sure everyone got the message. Figured the wingnuts around here would trust the Brits on this more than Biden. Sort of a public service announcement. See that Senator Johnson?

Sorry to violate the no politics rule/vibe, but I'm not sure this post counts.

Pew, pew, pew. 3 vehicles gone. Pew, Pew, pew on 3 gas tankers. 20 vehicles gone. Scare the shit out of them. They....don't....want to be there. Let them waive the white flag, take them into custody, treat them well. PR genius. Put it all over TV tomorrow. Let Anonymous put it on Russian State TV. Bingo.

Very small force to start with. I imagine a lot of it was destroyed on the ground.
