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

I don't get this update-did the equipment just disappear or are they not wanting to say where it was moved to for some reason.

The below link says they emptied out a base in the north. Seems like they are expecting to be bombed there soon. I imagine they moved their equipment further south.

Thinking this may be another angle of the construction fire seen earlier today.

Hope this is recent as I can recall footage like this from early in the war. IIRC that footage was near a river or lake.

I have posted this before, if I were a Russian conscript with options in life, and some awareness I'd desert at the first opportunity. I'd frag a sergeant or officer if I had to. They are grinding through the boys from the steppes, and the convicts, but anyone with a brain and access to real media should desert.

And, yet, dipshits like Northern, Biggrey, MTG, Tucker... Don't understand what's really at stake in Ukraine.

Some say these are decoys or even a fake story.
"It is being claimed that these Russian made air defense systems that are allegedly being transported in the US have been modified and upgraded. No further details as to what that entailed. "

Going to need to fill up and stop tapping the oil reserves. Also need to rapidly increase oil production here in the U.S with Biden’s failed leadership Saudi Arabia, Iran and Russian oil is all heading to China.

…and then China pulls their strings. Or, not.

Russia is facing a massive labor shortage, and this is before another wave of mobilization.

Russia's economy is facing a record worker shortage amid losses in Ukraine and mass exodus

Surveyed employers recorded the lowest level of worker availability since data collection started in 1998.

"RIGHT ON TARGET” — this is what #Russian Ministry of Defense wrote on Telegram after the #Russian missiles killed people in #Ukraine today. The message is accompanied by a hashtag ГероиZ, meaning heroes and the symbol of #Russian aggression, the letter Z."

Still good artillery numbers. I wonder how the old crappy tanks taken out of deep storage are counted if they are buried in place. Artillery or tanks?

I’m guessing if it has a turret and treads it’s classified as a tank, and not artillery. If that’s what the Russians are doing with those old tanks I will also make a guess that they are being placed in a deep defensive line. So, maybe they aren’t likely targets for now?

More war crimes…the Russian MoD said this attack was “Right on target”. Apparently women and children were the target. Multiple people dead including kids.

At some points another drone is seen-wonder if it is the Russian version. Thinking they could have really used a bazooka like weapon here.
