Roblo posted:you've potentially opened up a much larger area upstream to easier attacks. I am not an expert, but Dnieper is still a very wide river and there will be huge amounts of muddy sediment that accumulated at the bottom of the reservoir over decades, I doubt larger vehicles will be able to cross that area

I mean, I'm not going to be too shocked if Russia takes out some Leopards. They're good tanks, not invulnerable. The counterattack will not be painless.

fatherboxx posted:Claiming that they have already killed 200000+ russian soldiers (and thus around 500-600k wounded) is on the level with Russian MoD fantasies. They aren't claiming 200k killed. It's 200k casualties total. That means wounded, killed, captured, and missing. If it was 200k killed you'd be looking at minimum 650k casualties, which is beyond absurd. 200k total casualties is entirely in line with needing two rounds of mobilization E: interestingly one of the things that the Zinky Boys book about the Soviet-Afghan War goes into very often in accounts with soldiers and civilians is how far the USSR went to hide the casualties from Afghanistan. They'd bury them at night, or in unmarked graves, causes of death and any information about the combatant's condition was classified as a state secret and people were thrown in prison for it, a lot more besides that. All the stuff with the mobile crematoriums we saw earlier in the war existed in their Afghan war too and they used them there to keep casualty knowledge suppressed as much as possible in order to maintain internal social stability.

Wow. Poland is talking about sending troops to Ukraine. In other news the enemy is continuously shelled to hell combined with drone based counter battery fire. They have to keep moving the artillery back for fear of losing it. HIMARS is doing work on local concentrations of CNC elements so there's no one to answer the distress calls and reallocate reserves. Belgorod is still under siege with the 73rd mechanized getting their poo poo rocked by RDK/RVP forces. The guys have been pumping shells into belgorod for a loving week now. And Ukrianians that have been trapped in Nazi occupied territory are boating over to the ukrainians side of the Dniper. And there's boat ventures back and forth rescuing people from Russian Nazism so that's good news. Oh and Ukraine is developing scooter drones with rocket pods that can traverse at a speed of 80MPH. Yes Mph Not KPh I had to do the conversion. Also, the flooding of the river is actually very beneficial to Ukraine as oleshky was expected to be a tough nut to crack due to the overall defensive belt covering the Dniper. Nazis are dying, pundits are lying, and Putin? Skidding.

Liquidated translates to me more as a figure of speech for "generally out of action and unlikely to return" but I'll take your word for it as the native speaker

"Liquidated" was used internally by Soviet security services for targeted killings. Way later Russia started using it in media during Chechen campaigns because "liquidated militants" sounded tacticool and clean, in line with western war coverage newspeak ("insurgents", "surgical strikes", "collateral damage").

We are only going to see footage from the Russian POV for some time. I get the impulse to know what is going on, alas, it may be a while before we get a full picture of how the counter offensive is going. If Ukrainians are deploying Leopards, they are inevitably going to lose some. Edit: Case in point https://twitter.com/UAWeapons/status/1666830782533435394?s=20

I don't think that Shoigu has the power to arrest him at the moment. I think they'd have to trick him to go somewhere without his guards.
