Russia spent more than $300 million per day on defense last month as its invasion


That's about $9B in total for that one month.

If I have time later I'll try to total this but here is a list of military and humanitarian aid by country

Roughly $4.8B through March 27th LINK

Start another thread where you guys with a history can go back and forth, and reserve this thread for good, solid war discussion and information. This is getting old.

From my understanding they already have some in place but I could be wrong.

Has there been any kind of night raids by either side? I seem to remember Zelensky asking for night vision goggles.

Wello the PB thread was unstickied too, and has been abandoned. Virtually no traffic over there. Now, assholes come here to louse up this thread. Not bad enough they they developed a thread no one wants to post in, they need to frick this one up too.

All the Ukrainians have to do is get the USA M777 artillery within range of Izium supply lines. Rocket assisted GPS guided artillery shells combined with drone and US satellite real time targeting info is gonna frick some Russian shite up.

I have seen several reports of the Russians making gains in the Lyman area.

#Lyman Update - The situation around #Lyman is rapidly deteriorating for #Ukrainian troops. Today, #Russia captured Novoselivka to the NW and may have captured Yarova. Lyman is now surrounded on three sides with only destroyed bridges over the Donets on the 4th side.

More concerning overall is that they're being targeted from multiple weapons systems (MLRS and loitering munition), with Russian eyes on them the entire time.

Take a lesson from Chromdome above on how to post information without the shitty snark.

This tracks with this update from Neil Hauer:
quote:

Ukraine is having success with its Kharkiv offensive. But the sense in Donbas is that the situation is deteriorating significantly - and that this has accelerated in recent days. Russian troops have advanced on several axes in the past 24 hours and there's an ominous feeling here

Bombing on cities and targets across the region has also stepped up significantly in the past few days and continues to get worse. Distant artillery fire can be heard constantly from Kramatorsk now, and yesterday we heard anti-air systems working regularly - a new development.

Russia's army is significantly degraded, but it still has a lot of firepower - and it's all here

It also sounds like the Russians are attempting to pressure the Ukrainians north of Kharkiv up by Sumy. This is probably an attempt to take pressure off the Ukrainian gains just north of Kharkiv.

quote:

There are Unconfirmed reports tonight that Russian Combined-Arms Forces have begun renewed Offensive Operations involving Artillery Strikes near the Border on the Sumy Region of Northeastern Ukraine, so far this has not been Confirmed by Ukrainian or other Intelligence Officials.

Also reports that Ukraine successfully defended the area and prevented the Russian attack.

Trying to find those again.

Anyone have any clue if they can put up the kind of fight Mariupol did being encircled?
