quote:

Russian occupation "authorities" have initiated the evacuation from Ukraine’s Crimean peninsula, which Russia occupied in 2014, Andriy Yusov, a spokesman for Ukraine's military intelligence directorate, said on the Ukrainian state TV channel Freedom on March 24.

The day before, local residents heard warnings on FM stations that they should be ready to leave, he said, adding that this warning refers to those who have collaborated with the enemy.

"In order for peace and order to be restored there, the peninsula should be deoccupied so the legal Ukrainian authorities can return there,” the official website of Ukrainian intelligence quoted Yusov as saying.

“Actually, Crimea (should be returned) to its home Ukrainian harbor, which is bound to happen in the near future. Therefore, all those who work for Russia should really leave the territory of Ukrainian Crimea in the near future," he said.

Russian commanders and the occupiers' administration are very active in selling real estate and taking their families out of Crimea, the intelligence representative said.

"But they told the rest, like ordinary soldiers, not to worry, that everything is calm, and everything under their control... But, it has really become a meme that the so-called ‘special operation’ (Kremlin propaganda terminology for its war on Ukraine) is going according to plan... Families associated with Russians are being taken out, and quite promptly. And it is a sign for all those who tied their destiny with the criminal Kremlin regime."

Yusov said that it would be better for Russians to leave Crimea now while they still have the chance.

Earlier, the Deputy Chief of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine Vadym Skybytskyi said that the Russian invaders were preparing to defend the occupied Crimea.

A defense group has been building fortifications in the peninsula, he said.

Somehow not inclined to believe this. Russia might be getting their rear end handed to them, but Ukraine isn't really going to be in a position to launch an offensive into Crimea anytime soon.

This has to be bullshit, how would he know this?

It's just preparation for when dozens of T55s get annihilated by the 5 leopards they actually have lol.

"It's actually very impressive how our reservists in older tanks were able to stop the advance of 200 brand new NATO tanks!"

Again a reminder thst at this point equipment parity is similar to gulf war 1, where tank losses were in a 1 to 60 ratio. T-55s are junk and leopard 1s are going to annihilate them before they can even see them.

"They become impudent"
Hey Khodakovsky, remember when you clownishly claimed that Vuhledar getting captured by you and your bunch of bozos was all but guaranteed? Where are you now, and who has Vuhledar? If you wanted to fire back, maybe you shouldn't have wasted so much ammo firing blindly with no reconnaissance and shelling poor civilians as a terror tactic. You'll be down to 5,000 shells or less being fired daily across the front soon enough.

The privatization of Russia's forces remains one of the interesting develoments of the last few years. It reminds me of when governments privative public services to make them more "efficient", but in the end those privatized services tend to poo poo the bed almost instantly. Its seems all the graft and corruption were just part of the package.

They're private only on paper. They receive everything from Russian MoD.

From the linked Facebook post:

A group of Japanese upper house deputies from the Renaissance opposition party have set up a 1.2 million fund by deductions from their salary. Dollars on which purchased 20 tracks Toyota Helix and two containers of useful products for our zsu.

------------

So yeah, 1.2 million (Euro's? Dollars? Can't be Yen because that would only be about 9200 USD) taken out of their own salaries to buy these trucks.
