“The worst thing is that a few days before the announcement of mobilization, we took out a car loan. They bought an Opel and spent all their savings on the down payment. Therefore, we were penniless.“
“I had to pawn all the gold jewelry that my husband gave me in order to buy him equipment.”

“Now he is in a military unit near the village of Roschinsky in the Samara region. They have started training. I went to his apartment, handed over the food.”
“My husband came out to me for ten minutes, and then went to the shooting range. Then his brother, who is in the same unit, came to me and told me that they would not issue body armor to anyone.”
“It is as if they are told: "Here you kill the enemy, take off his bulletproof vest and it will be yours." “

When you say something that is soul shatteringly true, the propagandists are forced to attack the statement in a transparently desperate attempt to make their "followers" (almost all bots btw) think that attacking the statement is somehow logical. When they do this, you won.
It really is funny how these clowns come out of the woodworks when you dunk on them so hard they cant run away and hide from it.
And the thing here, obviously, and I cannot stress how transparent this is, Russia is trying to hide THEIR ABJECT FAILURES ON THE BATTLEFIELD behind a story that they completely fabricated hoping that gullible people fall for an appeal to emotion so they stop using logic.

Update for October 20th ukrdailyupdate.com/updates/update…
Here is an update for the military situation on October 20th. I will not write about any possible future attacks from the territory of Belarus and will focus on Kharkiv, Luhansk, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts.

If you would like to view the map: map.ukrdailyupdate.com Image
Russia is hitting the border towns of Kharkiv with artillery, rockets, mortars, tanks, and aviation. In addition, they have launched several small attacks on the border town of Ohirtseve (1). ImageImageImageImage

This area confuses me.

At some point I learned the Russians had crossed the railroad tracks near Krasnohorivka (with video showing it was true). On the map I labeled it (1). Image
At some point Russia was attacking Oleksandropil (2), and I have seen many people claim they took control over the town or at least the area around the town. I never saw proof of that.

Then I heard Ukraine pushed Russia out of Novoselivka (3).
Although I don't know which direction they came from. Was it a counter attack from Oleksandropil? Did it come from Yurivka? No idea! But Russia was pushed back to the bridge, where they maintained a small bridgehead but no control over the town. I've heard no update since.

Russians are posting that they captured 2 blocks in Soledar. Which they have done. Like 2 months ago. And the streets they are claiming today are the exact same streets as then. Except this is a victory I guess.
This is their “victory” they are publishing. This map, their own map, shows they don’t even control the Knauf Gips factory anymore.
On closer inspection, I believe this map of theirs also depicts that Russia does not fully control Pokrovske.

People seem curious about his writing so just for today I will repost it here in the form of a tweet thread.

Запоріжжя. У районі Чубарівки мор викосив кубло жмурків.🔥 Причому, як вже стало традицією, мобілізовано-дебілізованих.😂 Йо№нуло так непогано, що вйобували виживши полями.🤷🏻 Декількох піймали навіть у русі в напрямку Бердянську.☺️
Під Токмаком на себе прийняло удар трохи залізяччя, з яким, дуже сподіваємося, були і якісь там півні.☠️

Під Пологами в чергове жмурилися планово, хоча, як і під Гуляйполем (нещодавно один уйобок навіть самці своїй по телефону називав ці місця «полямі русскай слави»😂).

Russia says they are attacking "southeast" of Soledar and "northeast" of Soledar "near Yakovlivka." This is another way of saying they are scared to attack Soledar. Image
The past few days, Russia has attacked all around Avdiivka. Especially Opytne (and the western side of Opytne is referred to as Vodyane). Also the area south of Maryinka (Podjeda). ImageImageImage
Russian artillery say they are aiming "less than 7km" "from the outskirts of Lysychansk" to hit the Ukrainian advance from Bilohorivka. What qualifies as "the outskirts of Lysychansk?" No idea. They've been trying to assault toward Bilohorivka to push Ukraine back. Image
