Footage of a Russian Lancet-51 kamikaze drone strike on a Ukrainian Caesar 155mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer. The Caesar is mounted on a Tatra T815 chassis. Denmark ordered these self-propelled howitzers from France in 2017. The Caesars were delayed for a long time while defects were being corrected. Denmark subsequently transferred the Caesars to Ukraine. The Ukrainian Caesar was damaged as a result of the Lancet-51 drone strike. The video was filmed in the Zaporizhzhia region.

Russian War Losses Now Exceed Recruitment, Western Officials Say​


Russia sustained around 9,000 more battlefield losses in Ukraine than it was able to replace last month, according to assessments from Western officials, signaling progress for Ukraine’s ambition to inflict heavier damage on the front line.

Russian forces were unable to achieve significant gains on the ground in January even as they sustained heavy losses, according to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity. The assessment, which couldn’t be independently verified, could bolster Kyiv’s aim to drive up the cost for Moscow.

Looking at the map, I have come to realize this is not a war between Russia and Ukraine. It is a civil war between two factions of Ukraine east of the Dnepr river. It is between the Russian Ukraine east of the Dnepr river and the Ukrainian Ukraine east of the Dnepr river.

The Ukrainian Ukraine east of the Dnepr river is supported by the Ukrainian Ukraine west of the Dnepr river. The Russian Ukraine east of the Dnepr river is supported by Russia.

Think of it like the civil war in Ireland between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

Ukraine east of the Dnepr river will end up divided between the Russian Ukraine east of the Dnepr river and the Ukrainian Ukraine east of the Dnepr river, just like Ireland was divided between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

Russians are angry because starlink stops working. Why angry on a western platform?
Chinese can do the same. China can stop all electric cars sold to the Russians. Well, at least on paper. but the Chinese will probably not do that. Bad for business.

Russia has essentially topped out on manpower as their army is no longer growing as it was in the 2022-2025 period.

The Russians are destroying themselves and there’s no end in sight. Putin has sunk so much money, manpower, and equipment into Ukraine he can’t afford to end the war because he has so little to show for it.
laughable lol as ukrainian have to kidnap people to get manpower
Ukraine is holding out well but its well known they have manpower crisis

Russia is China's client state. Why would China stop selling to Russia? As a Chinese myself, Russia is China's best neighbor. We Chinese people do not have Russia phobia like you Europeans have. We Chinese love Russia.

In fact, because of Chinese consumer products sold to Russia, Russia has higher standard of living compared to the West despite Western sanctions. Russia has the best PCs, the best TVs, the best fridges, the best cars, the best phones, the best everything related to consumer products.

The age of Western consumer products domination is over. Today China makes the best consumer products at the lowest prices.

Ukraine is not holding out well. Poland took Moscow. Napoleon took Moscow. Hitler almost took Moscow. Ukraine has not been able to invade Russian soil other than a failed small incursion in Kursk.

If you can't even invade Russian soil, then you are not a military powerhouse. Ukraine claims to be a military superpower. The reality on the ground speaks otherwise.

They are friends today, enemy tomorrow.
