How does it feel being on the frontlines as an LPR soldier storming #Rubizhne?

Making rounds in the 🇷🇺 internet today is a volunteer's account sharing the nightmares of the Battle for Donbas in March and April, with infantry assaulting fortified 🇺🇦positions.

Ukrainian military expert Oleg Zhdanov brings an update to the frontline situation in Ukraine on 25 July 2022.

Text version: wartranslated.com/ukraine-war-fr…
Northern direction - Volyn-Polesye

No changes except that the Belarusian forces yesterday conducted exercises at the command and communications points. This allows to them to test communication and commanding points aimed for combat activities.
Generally speaking this may indicate preparation for hostilities so the situation occasionally shakes up. However, no forming of the strike groups is observed. The situation generally remains calm.

Summary of the daily livestream with Aleksey Arestovych for Day 150, 23 July. Kindly brought to you by Atis: twitter.com/savaadaak.

Text version: wartranslated.com/day-150-july-2…

Duration of the war:
The duration of the war depends on depth of theater, strength of sides, and objectives. 🇷🇺 objectives are way out of their strength. They have lost war at Strategic level by end of March, when they could not capture Kyiv.
Soon they will loose at Operational level, when they won't be able to attack, then at Tactical level, which might not be soon however, as 🇷🇺 has shown incredible stubbornness.

I want to tell you a story about one Bashkir man whose name was Rif (pron. R-e-e-f).

Bashkirs are native people of Bashkortostan region in Russia, which lies on the border between Europe and Asia. Get a glimpse of what the norm is for a large proportion of the Russian citizens.
When I last saw him in 2010, Rif was around 55. All his life he lived in a village Uzungulovo, about 30km from Beloretsk town in Ural mountains of Russia. This region is known for vast forests, fertile plains, wide rivers, tall mountains, and lakes full of fish. Image
I knew Rif as a next door neighbour of my mother’s childhood friend Elena who bought a plot in Uzungulovo village a few years prior. She lived in a large city of Magnitogorsk and stayed in the village during weekends.
