If I didn't know any better, I'd think it was tornado season in Ukraine.

Russian bombardment on March 3 effectively wiped out part of the small village of Yakovlivka in the Kharkiv Oblast, completely destroying 21 houses, and severely damaging 24.

Putin believes in God? Dang I'm learning all kinds of new stuff today. Somebody should refer him to the thread on Hell on this board.

Symbolic at this point, still it may point to Putins desperation. In any case to get back to Rummy, he will be reaching out to the people he’s personally enriched over the last 25 years to pour money into this thing. People ask why not send in the best military equipment now? Simple answer according to my people is he’s weak as shite at home and he’s worried about the Ceausescu treatment.

The story told is that he survived but his co-pilot died after being shot down. He was captured.

SIAP - US Senior Defense Official Holds a Background Briefing, Mar 4, 2022

I -- I've asked Senior Defense Official 2 to come talk to you about one thing and one thing only, and that is the security force assistance process, the way that we go from a presidential drawdown, the decision, to actually getting things into the hands of the Ukrainians.

That's what she's going to talk about, and questions directed to her need to be about that topic. I will stay on after (inaudible) leaves to do our normal daily update on things going on. But -- but I thought that, given the increasing interest that all of you had in security assistance, that it would be useful to have her walk you through a little bit of the process.

Senior Defense Official 2 is not going to confirm particular inventory items, either in scope, scale or -- or type, just so you -- you're aware of that. And we are also -- she is not going to give too much detail on the modalities of how, physically, geographically, where things are -- are getting into Ukraine. I think you all can understand that we want to be able to preserve these venues as much as possible. So we don't want that information out there.

This whole Russian supply issue is just odd. Here is a pretty significant looking supply convoy that looks as though the entirety just up and left, abandoning everything.

#Ukraine: In the vicinity of Stary Saltov, #Kharkiv, a large Russian convoy was abandoned, including 6+ supply/fuel trucks and 4+ Rosgvardia Avtozak trucks.

We believe this is previously unseen. LINK

The difference between Syria and Ukraine is that Ukrainians are growing to love Z whereas Assad was pretty much hated by everyone except the shitheels he enriched. Oh and Stingers and Javelins that’s a big difference lol

It seems like this guy and the dead one both have the same injury. Any insights as to what injury and what caused it? Head almost ripping off from ejecting at speed?

One thing I've learned from all of this is that Google Translate struggles with informal Russian to the point that it is just humorous.

And for the people who asked about Ukranian equipment losses and such not being covered, @UAWeapons is also posting captured/destroyed Ukranian weaponry.

Maybe they interpreted that Russian ceasefire VERY broadly?

It is curious how Israel has handled this so far. I don't know enough about their positions to form much of an opinion on it, though.

As hard as this is to believe, they and India are considered “Honest Brokers” by Russia. Russia views them along the same lines as the devil you know…

I’d rather them both handle it over Kamala Harris who is only capable of making the situation worse.
