I believe no Ukrainian casualties a lot easier than I do some Russian tackled one in his drawers on the beach. Maybe it’s just me though.

The claim was that a Russian was in his underwear when he engaged the Ukrainians.

The truth is that both Russia and Ukraine are lying about it. There were probably some casualties for the Ukrainians and I doubt the guy in underwear killed everyone.

Don’t disagree which is why I posted original update with “hope we get more in this”.

Posting a rebuttal that includes Russian claims a dude in his drawers took them on on the beach and “pinned” down 15-20 equipped soldiers is just a ridiculous way to make the point.

Lots of Russian channels are concerned about an impending big Ukrainian strike: LINK. There are reports of Ukraine amassing 50 armored vehicles for a big push to break the Russian 2nd defensive line near Verbove.



There was reportedly video two days ago that showed Ukrainian vehicles within 250 meters of this line, so it would make sense that Ukraine would try to break it.

If successful, Ukraine would only have face one more of these big defensive lines.

Tomorrow could be an interesting day.

If Ukraine has armored vehicles within 250 meters of the Russian defensive line and they’re not being actively engaged by Russian tanks, anti-tank, or artillery, then that’s not much of a defensive line. 250 meters for a tank is virtually point blank range.

They attacked a signal unit, and on top of that, a signal unit that thought it was far from any action. As someone who has provided OPFOR for for several support units, I can easily believe they escaped without any KIA. Half those guys don't keep their weapons clean enough to fire and the other half are fricking off or wacking it in the latrine. And that's OUR support guys. God only knows with the Russians.

The background mystery with Prigozhin's death is the dog that didn't bark. Where were all of his friends in the FSB and GRU? Not a single phone call warning him to stay off that plane.

The repairs/stewardess narrative on next page was as good as it was going to get. I also heard there was a wet squad on standby if he decided on leaving airport btw. Also GRU weren’t the agency that did this, this was all FSB who feel this was a mulligan for some stuff that has landed at their feet over the last year and a half.

I read it originally as a group of guys who were ready to pee on him, in a sexual manner.
