    I'm not sure why drug traffickers would be prohibited from the prisoner recruitment scheme, they would probably be good at logistics.
  • @dragonrykr
    I swear every comment section related to Ukraine anywhere on this damn site is just a wasteland
  • @Wilinater
    I was skeptical about the prison law but knowing now that it's non-violent criminals put that at ease.
  • This is just my take on the offensive but I don't honestly think the Russians initially even going to have a full offensive when they did. There were far too little men there and the ones that were there were relatively inexperienced. imo the light infantry probably moved in to trouble Ukraine and drag away manpower from the east but noticing the shocking lack of defence the commanders were like "what the heck" and just continued. it would account for the lack of mechanized assaults
  • @smith3696
    They really said that the northern offensive "might have been" less effective than expected because it didn't capture Kharkiv when there were only a few thousand men with no armour...
  • @alamedaslim9438
    No information about the african mercenaries russia is employing?
  • @FireCrack83

    FYI, the ASC-890 is a Saab 340 turbo prop commuter aircraft, fitted with a large radar antenna on top.
  • With the numbers they had it looked more diversionary than anything
  • Imagine rooting for Ukraine, but also rooting for Israel 💀
  • @yotaiji012
    Crazy. This is basically covered almost real time. How do you even collect so much data in such little time?
  • @deruiz1478
    In 1942, Soviets accidentally attacked the build up for Case Blue here and got absolutely wrecked, 2nd Battle of Kharkov.
  • @arystanbeck914
    You are kidding if you call BTR-60/70/80 new. BTR-60 and BTR-70 were already old and going out of service in 1980s when I served. Yes, BTR-80 were new back then, but it was 40 years ago. Same goes for T-62, T-72 and T-82 tanks.

    It’s a dangerous world, now more than ever in recent memory 😬
  • @dragonrykr
    8:57 They have not captured Bilohorivka, only Russian MoD reported on that, but ground assessments confirmed that that was a feint, and Bilohorivka is still under Ukrainian control
  • @bikkiikun
    Shoigu is certainly not a scapegoat... he actually IS one of those who is most responsible for the failures of the Russian military, as a result of corruption.
  • Video idea : the Corinthian war and the theban Spartan, and how those 2 wars put an end to Spartan dominance in ancient Greece and allowing Philip the 2nd to expand Macedonia as the main power in ancient Greece
  • Oh wait no I'm an idiot. The reason we don't see the mechanized advance. Is because they're using the Armata's cloaking feature. Obviously.
