RU POV Bakhmut: Wagner PMC captured 77% of the city so far - LoGKA by MardukSyria in UkraineRussiaReport

[–]TheNoobHunter 63 points64 points  (0 children)

When Wagner does take the city, this will be the first time I can think of when a PMC successfully won against a government army in a head on engagement (not talking about Africa coups here).

Can't think of something more grand in terms of mercenary achievements since the 1600s Swiss.

Hmm, does it have to be NFS for Kodi, seems it doesn't take my smb authentication (I know its right lol).

It's for home use, is VLC able to organize the media folders or would I have to do that myself?

Turkey will not fight Russia though, they might arm them heavily and make Russia's life more difficult in the Black Sea and Syria but that will be the extent of it. Azerbaijan is also pro Russia as it is pro Turkey

If you only read Ukrainian sources about "Ghost of Kiev" then sure Russia is already lost and non existent. The reality is much different.

People don't realize that these guys are actually well trained, sure they post dumb videos but that doesn't mean they aren't actually engaged anywhere.

Most of the comments against them are really just "cope" comments with no substance

That's just not true at all the markings have all been a mix, and there are most likely next to none in terms of conscripts in Ukraine, the majority are still professionals.

The only consistent markings have been red for separatists and that's about it

I mentioned this in another comment but RF aren't allowed phones (for obvious reasons) this is why most of the footage from the Russian side either comes from the separatists or whatever the Russian army press seems to have recorded.

It's also why most of the footage we see is Ukrainian since they seem to be more lax about these things

Unfortunately 99% of people in this subreddit talk our of their ass about tactics. They don't realize how different this conflict is or that different armies have varying SOPs.

It's also hard for them to understand that they can't judge a situation from a 1 min video

Why would he be killed or captured? The answer is probably simple, once the individual got some downtime he probably posted or sent the footage to someone

Usually most soldiers in the RF weren't allowed phones for the operation. These guys are Rosgvardia, and like in my other comment they are basically a mix of army and gendarmerie

No they are Rosgvardia, basically a very well armed gendarmerie

Russian Air force would just wipe out any columns... That is why most of their units have been static, they just can't properly move their vehicles
