Here are the losses I could identify today.



There is another video of like 10 more russian losses but I am not confident they aren't duplicates and I need to precisely geolocate them before I say anything more about them. losses.ukrdailyupdate.com

Dear Russians, please stop. Just go home. You're getting massacred. Every single day. Just go home. Sitting here watching a platoon of infantry get hit by like 9 dpicm in a row and I think like 1 guy survived. Imagine if those 30 guys stayed home instead.
This russian guy is sitting here holding his severed leg. Imagine if he stayed home.
Russian guy had a burning ural run over his leg, and had it spray molten plastic and shit into his face until he suffocated and died. He could have stayed home, too.
Yesterday I saw a russian embrace a fpv flying at him. he accepted death, and let it hit him exactly. the problem is he didnt die. all four limbs were amputated and he lay there still living, struggling to sit up. but he couldnt sit up. he just drowned on his blood.
the amount of fucked up shit we see every single day. every day, just so many russians die. horribly. there is no honor or glory in anything.
Every time we see a russian die, we just write it down. Weapon: FPV Drone. Target: Infantry. And then move on to the next one. And that is probably more recognition than the soldier gets from most. That’s your reward for fighting for a dictator who is destroying your own country.

I was only just now able to finish updating my map for yesterday. But here are some news stories I want to highlight.

People trying to downplay Russias improved ISR capabilities are missing the boat. Just because something existed for a long time doesn’t mean it isn’t improved. Fucks sake.
Especially an issue where improvement is fixing communication friction. Do people really think thats something that cannot be addressed? Cutting down time from observation to engagement is, like, normal.
Really, the problem here, is that Ukraine had all of this time to develop systems to deal with the drones while they were hindered by systemic communication problems, but since that was never done we are seeing the impact of those systemic problems being alleviated.

Here are losses I could identify today.

That one video was pretty bad for the Russians.

I generally suspect Russia's offensive was planned to last around 7 months, based strictly on their past behavior and nothing more. Which means I expect these levels of losses to go on for another 6 weeks or so, followed by going back to a more normal like handful per day.

For people who don’t know, this is a classic example of propaganda. This is how they attack things that damage them. They use troll farms and bots to post comments like this, trying to show a “grassroots” disagreement. Humans have a natural instinct to overweight disagreement. Image
In other words, when people see a negative comment, they vastly overweight that comment and it changes their opinion of the whole. Even if that negative opinion is nonsense and holds no weight. That’s what these troll farms try to accomplish.
Our schooling system is failing to teach this to people. To watch out and identify this behavior. When you know what they are trying to do, it becomes so obvious and easy to avoid. Plus, you get to mock them.

The goals of the Ukrainian offensive were obvious, and by now I think everyone knows them. To capture Robotyne in the first day, to push to Tokmak, and then to Melitopol. There was arrogance and naivety to it, and it failed. In September people were writing about its failure.
The goals of the Russian offensive were also obvious. To capture Berdychi and Sjeverne in the first day. Then to capture Avdiivka and push to Kurakhove. It was also arrogant and naïve, and it failed. But, I do not see people writing about this failure.
People write about Russia's losses, yes. But not the complete failure of their offensive and their inability to break through defenses and minefields. This was every headline for Ukraine, but for Russia, it is not. Why?

Jesus christ. A Russian T-90M couldnt even hold its own in 1 on 1 combat witha. bradley when it had the first shot and knew the bradley was there. This tank got fucking ganked. Russian tech and training such a shit show they can’t even win a tank versus ifv 1 v 1 w/first shot adv Image
This crew is swiss cheese. the tank is a wreck. ass kicking of the century right here.
I’ve never seen the Russians get this dunked on.
