This is so painful to watch! Big Boys don’t cry they say, f*ck that!
Grown men do cry and this made me shed tears like a child.😭😢

Edit: Time to tag those opposing support for Ukraine on Twitter and other social platforms. We elected them to govern this country in the best interests for us the citizens.
Not expecting any of them to actually care but this begs the question; do Ukrainian children don’t have the rights to enjoy the same childhood as our own?!
Post Scriptum! Please, spare me any responses about World hunger, escalation, poverty, famine, and suffering elsewhere. The actions of voting against proposed support for Ukraine is a direct responsibility for this type of reality in Ukraine.

Missed the best parts of all, here it is.
Edit: Bonus - this guy is true legend!
 

Some constructive contribution now
Speaking of Wagner showing up
Drones on Moscow
And last but not least, more armor on its way.

I don't understand this line of thinking .  Who ever claimed   Western  Armor is invincible ? - We have Seen Leopards , MI1A1's , Bradley's  blown up before in multiple theaters over the last few decades ( Saudi Arabia , Iraq , Turkey , Syria  etc )  - it is no surprise they are doing so  and will continue to do so in this theatre of action .  This is  the same set of delusions now being packaged around  F-16's  as some sort of wonder weapon  . You analyze the success rate of a class of vehicles - success in terms of completing its designated mission goals  over several months if not years of use . Whether a single  tank is destroyed or captured in a particular  tactical encounter  is utterly irrelevant .

Well said and needs reminding! About the same time last year there was frustration growing over the lack of progress. Not much territorial progress until September and October, and the rest is history. We can argue back and forth about elements of surprise, conditions and defensive lines etc.
If it’s one thing we know for sure is that Russians are not very happy right now. Read any of the military bloggers or Telegrams right now, Murz yesterday being perfect example. The northern offensive is nothing more than attempt to draw attention away from what is unfolding in the south. Please do keep in mind that we are all useful idiots when we start to echo Russian propaganda.
100,000 troops up north! The Russians are coming! What is the General Staff of Ukraine waiting for?!
Seriously, are we that naive? Russians keep 100,000 men in reserve up north but don’t rotate them across the front (as per Murz et al. yesterday). Hmm, interesting! Either the Russians have fooled us all to underestimate their assets, or they are lying. You be the judges of each probability.
The Russians are importing shells from North Korea but have 100,000 troops armed to their teeth up north. Oh, really?! Soon we’ll be hearing about them having deployed the indestructible almighty T-14 Armata with those troops also. No wait! They also have the impossible to stop Kinzal missiles with them! Everyone take cover, we are in real trouble now!
In reality, this is nothing more than Russians doing their “little masquerade” aka maskirovka. They do not have the manpower nor resources to take back what they lost this year, less last year. I apologize for the rant but people, please start reading what the other side is saying. They are talking about the development as watching train crash unfold in slow motion. Anecdotal evidence of the opposite doesn’t change the reality of unfolding events. Either they are doing their best to fool us all into thinking they are losing, ”haha, we fooled them all and now for the element of surprise!”. Or they are really just frustrated and angry at their own inability to stop what is unfolding.
The credit goes to the Ukrainians in this situation, they are as good as the Russians at this Sovjet bull****. They’ve done remarkable job from day one by countering any propaganda with sarcasm and humor. Which has worked remarkably well btw.
If this offense is going according to plan or better, would the Ukrainians tell the World that? Aw Lawd! What if the Russians hear about it?!
As discussed yesterday - Tokmak, Polohy, or Zachativka. Not all of them but the Ukrainians need to take one of them and we got ourselves Russians in sh*t and not arms to their teeth.
One last thing, let me whisper this so they don’t hear - “the Russians know this”! Oh they know! They know but are deploying 100,000 strong up north to prevent such crippling blows in the south.
Edit: PS! If anybody is of the opinion that I am full of sh*t - please PM me. I have a bridge to sell you!

Putin says Russia withdrew army from Kyiv because it was "asked" (yahoo.com)
🤣🤣🤣

From the horses mouth, summary from foreign instructor of situational update as of yesterday; 
The liberation of Staromaiorske was carried out by the 35th infantry brigade together with the "Arej" battalion of the 129th national guard brigade. This is interesting because the media is now spreading the information that it was a massive heavy attack from our side. We used several tanks and about 12 MRAP-type infantry vehicles, as well as a lot of mortar and artillery fire. The Russians enjoyed them for about a week and a half and when we destroyed enough of their armor that they retreated yesterday.
They left a lot of material, including tanks, which we will use now. So, the forces liberating the settlement were a combination of the elite force and the national guard, and according to reports from first-hand, the cooperation worked flawlessly. This shows the quality of our national guard forces, especially considering WHERE and HOW we started training those national guard soldiers in February 2022. We didn't even have uniforms for them and training took place indoors in basements and unfinished skyscrapers. We were able to move outdoors only in April 2022 and under very primitive conditions. It was impossible to train for attacks and entering the trenches, only theoretical training. Now our NG is as capable as the armies of many countries. Another interesting thing that appeared were videos of one of our vehicles approaching the barriers and dragon's teeth at Verbove.
A lone vehicle (probably unmanned) crosses the open ground, drives into the tank pit. The minefield is clearly missing and no Russians tried to destroy it upon approach. This confirms what I said earlier; the main line of defense is not as strong as the Russians claims. That is why we see so much resistance from Russians between the main line of defense and the front line itself. The quality of Russian' personal equipment is also shown by video footage from Staromaiorske itself; low quality and in many ways self-made. Even many attempts to design personal water purifiers show that they fall short of potable water. We can assume for probable reasons that the Russians holding the main line of defense will be retreating troops who are now fighting on the front line, troops that have not been allowed to rest for months.
Contrast this with the media's hysterical bluster that Russians have mobilize as many people as possible. If this is the case; why do you use the same forces and material delivery routes all the time. The Russian army is closer to collapse than one might think. We will see more liberated areas during the day, that's for sure.

This war is far from over. I think Ukraine has a hard task ahead of them. But, I also believe they will regain all their lost territory.

what?  this level of pessimism isn't warranted yet. in fact most signs are pointing to this war becoming more and more a problem for the russian state.  Patience.

It’s tough to stomach this type of events, even from the sidelines. Nothing compared to your own Ukrainian perspective, and I feel your pain and frustration. Don’t know if you unfortunately lost family, friends or colleagues in this war, if so you got our condolences. These heroic men and women are fighting for a just and righteous cause.
Few would be ready to volunteer in the same situation that you find yourself in. Even fewer would take a stand with gun in hand. Russians reveling in these Ukrainian losses makes it even worse to watch. But this would have happened even if we didn’t get it on video to see the graphic nature of war in this way.
This is the price that has to be paid, for you and all those that come after you to live in liberty of choice as Ukrainians. Trust me when I say that this is not sentimental nonsense from behind the keyboard. I’ve been in your seat right there, seen this first hand. Just like you we had no choice but to push back in our own existential fight. The difference being, and no bitterness, just matter of fact - nobody gave us support and a fighting chance against an overwhelming enemy. I was lucky to have been given a second chance, not everyone did. But that’s thing of the past, your pain is here and now, our focus should be on that only.
There will be losses also in the future, but those are inevitable in war. And I trust when peace finally comes that will be without any occupied Ukrainian land. Again, being in the midst of it one is prepared to give ones life for that of ones children and families. Even under the worse of conditions morale is not broken. As the saying was “we will not surrender, our families are behind our backs and we cannot turn those towards the enemy”. 
Keep your spirit up brother, I know it’s tough but you are heroes to all of us and those that come after us.
Make all those that fought and lost their lives for our freedom matter. Give the Russians hell!

They left a lot of material, including tanks, which we will use now. So, the forces liberating the settlement were a combination of the elite force and the national guard, and according to reports from first-hand, the cooperation worked flawlessly. This shows the quality of our national guard forces, especially considering WHERE and HOW we started training those national guard soldiers in February 2022. We didn't even have uniforms for them and training took place indoors in basements and unfinished skyscrapers. We were able to move outdoors only in April 2022 and under very primitive conditions. It was impossible to train for attacks and entering the trenches, only theoretical training. Now our NG is as capable as the armies of many countries. Another interesting thing that appeared were videos of one of our vehicles approaching the barriers and dragon's teeth at Verbove.
A lone vehicle (probably unmanned) crosses the open ground, drives into the tank pit. The minefield is clearly missing and no Russians tried to destroy it upon approach. This confirms what I said earlier; the main line of defense is not as strong as the Russians claims. That is why we see so much resistance from Russians between the main line of defense and the front line itself. The quality of Russian' personal equipment is also shown by video footage from Staromaiorske itself; low quality and in many ways self-made. Even many attempts to design personal water purifiers show that they fall short of potable water. We can assume for probable reasons that the Russians holding the main line of defense will be retreating troops who are now fighting on the front line, troops that have not been allowed to rest for months.
Contrast this with the media's hysterical bluster that Russians have mobilize as many people as possible. If this is the case; why do you use the same forces and material delivery routes all the time. The Russian army is closer to collapse than one might think. We will see more liberated areas during the day, that's for sure.
