Will Putin Invade Ukraine?

[Cassia]

And just like the American soldiers who came home wounded and disturbed, Russia and Ukraine will have suicidal veterans after the initial nightmare ends. This guy is still wearing his vest. Senseless.

Yeah, I saw one video with a Russian mother overjoyed to have her son back home - and he's missing both arms entirely.  It was as surreal as it was unnecessary - if he had stayed put, he'd be fine.

I hope Ukraine's army blows it to shit, tout-suite!

Largest Russian base in Ukraine goes boom

Also, a building they were going to use for a fake referredumn was demolished.  Allow me to offer my fakest condolences!

Russian forces in Kherson continue to degrade in effectiveness

Ukraine's Southern Operational Command stated that a 10-person Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group attempted assault operations in Kherson Oblast on August 27, suggesting that Russian offensive capabilities in Kherson Oblast have degraded even further.

A 10-person group amounts to a squad, which is too small to act effectively as a maneuver unit. If the Southern Operational Command correctly reported the size and mission of this unit, it would indicate that Russian ground forces in Ukraine have degraded to the point that they are attempting to conduct offensive operations and echelons too low to make meaningful gains.

Also, Russia's gearing up the volunteer 3rd Army Corps to try to regain some lost momentum.  Supposedly, they're getting better gear and "abbreviated" training.  But nice gear (by Russian standards) doesn't mean anything if they lack proper intel, logistics, training, leadership, and discipline.  Orcs with nice guns are simply fertilizer temporarily carrying around nice trophies.  🌻

Russian troops in Kazakhstan refuse to return to Russia out of fear of being used as cannon fodder in Ukraine

1000 troops, too.  Russia certainly needs all the help it can get in their genocidal war of aggression, though they have very little to offer in return.  It makes a lot of moral and practical sense to stay put.

Russia uses an expensive "high-precision" missile to bomb a public toilet in Kherson region

Blew the shit out of Kherson, they get to say.

Has Russia become a laughingstock yet?

I just came across something called "nukemap" that's interesting as hell. It shows the results of the use of a nuclear weapon of various sizes. You can just Google it.
It's at the nuclear secrecy blog.

ruzzist back home poses with Ukrainian skull, claims this is a war on an "idea" (that Ukraine exists) and that in a war of ideas, it sucks and he feels bad but they just have to kill anyone who holds the idea (again, the idea that Ukraine exists).

It's been said before - "If you are wondering what you would do if you lived in WW2 when the Nazi's were around... you're doing it right now.". Unfortunately, if it was up to the people... ruzzia would probably be glass by now, but it's not up to the people.

ruzzist Who Definitely Should Have Come Home In A Body Bag Being a Nazi

The Liberation of Kherson is a go!

Unfortunately, I can't share much details about it due to operational security, but early reports are very hopeful.  It's looking very much like a repeat of operations north of Kyiv.

Slava Ukraine!

Edit - I can share today's casualty figures.  450 invader KIA, 7 tanks, 25 armoured combat vehicles, 19 artillery, 3 MLRS, 2 air defense, 1 helicopter, 29 other vehicles, etc.
