The Ukraine army that is beating back the Russians

are not professional soldiers like the Russian army.

They are IT engineers, graphic artists and lawyers and doctors

Amazing.

Unfortunately we may only be getting the "good news" from the Western perspective.

I think it is hard to fully defeat the Russians who have overwhelming quantity advantages. 

And dangerous also, as it may push the crazies to using tactical nuclear bomb.

For USA, I think they would prefer to keep Ukraine-Russia conflict as a slow burn to suck the life out of the Russia economy - like Afganistan.

Need to follow both western news and PRC CCTV coverage to get a balanced view , and the truth is often somewhere in between

Ukraine war: downed Russian fighter jets found with basic GPS ‘taped to dashboards’, UK defence minister says

• Su-34 pilots are relying on the rudimentary receivers to navigate because their inbuilt systems are so bad, says British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace
• He added there was evidence suggesting Russian military hardware was being pushed to breaking point in the invasion of Ukraine

Take with a pinch of salt because here you have a so-called Defence guy saying aircraft have "dashboard"?? Even in the news article they are careful to put it in quotation marks to highlight that the phrase did not come from their journalists.

Initially when I saw those photos in which the artillery hits on the tanks seems so eerily precise, I thought the Ukraine forces were using GPS-guided shells or those high-precision rounds with some kind of homing sensor.

way too accurate to be just normal rounds. maybe the tb2s are designating targets.

Furious Putin orders 'purge' of Russian commanders after Ukraine invasion failure

According to Ukrainian government sources Putin has purged the head of his army and fired a number of top commanders over failings in the ongoing invasion

Russian president Vladimir Putin is allegedly purging his own commanders due to their ongoing failures in Ukraine.

A top adviser to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Russia ’s top commander General Valery Gerasimov has been suspended and a number of other officers have been sacked.

This comes amid rumours of a purge of Russia’s top brass as the country’s invasion of Ukraine continues well into its third month.

Oleksiy Arestovych, a military intelligence veteran and one of President Zelensky's inner circle, claimed on Wednesday that Gerasimov, the chief of staff of the Russian army, had been suspended.

This came as Putin allegedly was seeking senior commanders to point the finger at over his struggling invasion.

Speaking to dissident Russian lawyer and politician Mark Feygin, on YouTube, Arestovych said Gerasimov had been suspended and that Putin was deciding whether or not to give the 66-year-old general time to right his wrongs.

This comes after Gerasimov wasn’t seen at Russia’s Victory Day parade.

Arestovych added: “The commander of the first tank army of the western military district Lieutenant General Sergei Kisel has also been arrested and fired after the first tank army was defeated near Kharkiv.”

Arestovych admitted this information was “preliminary” but it comes after reports of Putin’s growing anger at members of the Russian military establishment.

According to information released on a Telegram channel run by the Ukrainian interior ministry, two more commanders have been fired due to failures on the battlefield.

They also claimed the commander of the Black Sea fleet has been sacked and arrested with his vice admiral under investigation.

The Find Your Own Telegram feed ran by Kyiv’s interior ministry said: “After the failure in Ukraine - repressions and purges in the Russian army.

“The Commander of the Black Sea Fleet, Admiral Igor Osipov, was removed from his post and arrested. [There are] Investigative actions in relation to... first deputy commander of the fleet, Vice Admiral Sergei Pinchuk.

“Due to the large losses of personnel, weapons and military equipment, [Russia] fired: Commander of the 6th Army, Lieutenant General Vladislav Ershov; commander of the tank army of the western military district, Lieutenant General Sergei Kisel and one of the deputy commanders.

“[Also] Commander of the 22nd Army Corps of the Southern Military District, Major General Arkady Marzoev.”

Despite its size and resources, Russia’s army has been repeatedly humiliated by Ukraine on the battlefield and suffered severe losses so far in the war.

Early reports suggested Moscow aimed for the invasion to be over in a matter of weeks but now find themselves dug in as fighting reaches its 77th day with no sign of stopping.

Only yesterday, it emerged that Russian troops were decimated whilst trying to cross a river in the Donbas, where fighting is now concentrated.

An artillery strike destroyed at least 58 vehicles as they tried to sneak across.

My idle speculation is that maybe Gerasimov came back from front with bad news for Putin that the war cant be won and got fired... lool

Not able to win this ukriane war is bad, but what i find worst for Putin, is this badly executed 'special military operation' has exposed Russia's military weakness and whether they are truly a super power.  More countries are not afraid of angering Russia by making provocative moves like joining nato and blaming Putin for doing so.

Problem is so long they got nukes they still scary AF

Only hope is all the bootlickers that only give Putin good news like the 150 FSB officers have been arrested so that people with actual brains are left in charge. Those are less likely to go ahead with any order to press the button
