  2. We live in such an insane time… Do people realise what kind of historical time we are living in? This is big ….

  6. This is very smart on Ukraine’s part, because if Russia is to repel this, they are going to need to bomb their own cities and villages for once, instead of Ukraine.

  7. Putin never played Age of Empires and it shows. You don’t commit all of your forces to a single assault that leaves your own defenses exposed while you do it.

  8. Watching this incursion unfold, it’s giving me blitz vibes, except that as far as we know, Ukraine didn’t have some units leave earlier than scheduled due to impatience of their commander (rommel). This type of deep thrusting penetration into the enemies rear areas is satisfying to watch unfold.

  9. I could be wrong, but this feels like the strategy of the Tet offensive in the vietnam war. “You think we are beat? You have been telling your population that we are making big gains in territory and that the unstoppable russian bear is here at last? How can we do this then?”

  11. Gonna be a lot of people falling out of windows this month!

  13. Someone really needs to deepfake Pooties face over Hitler in that nazi video thing from a few years back.

  16. Putin is losing control of the battlefield. Tyranny implodes.

  17. What incursion, it’s a special military operation

  20. What is deep can go deeper even when Ukraine starts to arm russians against Putin regime!

  22. Shows the utter complacency  and incompetency of the mafia state-run gas station 

  23. Title can be shortened to just ‘Russia Struggles’.

  26. My god Russia, you know if someone twenty years ago told me that Russia was this dog shit weak I would of thought that person mad, but now I see they really are dog shit weak. And these people honestly think they can fight NATO or the United States?? Beyond delusional the Russian state has become apparently 

  27. So curious if western leaders were really in the dark about this

  28. Would love to see Ukraine win and then force nuclear disarmament or continued loss of territory until they eventually forfeit and are disarmed anyway🤣🤣🤣

  29. I did NOT have Ukraine invading Russia proper on the 2024 bingo card. Bravo Ukraine!!!!!

  30. Kind of interesting timing in relation to the recent report about Russian rail troubles (https://www.newsweek.com/russian-railway-collapse-sanctions-ukraine-war-1935049).

    If those reports are true, and given Russia’s extremely heavy reliance on rail, such an incursion at this particular point, forcing Russia to move a good chunk of men/equipment by rail, could really push Russia’s rail network over the edge, and quicken the deterioration of their ability to resupply men and equipment in Ukraine.

  31. Had Putin or general in charge of invading Ukraine read Sun Tzu’s Art of War, they could have done a better job of anticipating Ukrainian counter invasion. 😛

  32. And there you have it- Ukraine is more than capable of fucking up Russia, they just need enough equipment/ammo to push through more fortified positions.

    This just shows they’re more than capable of going toe to toe VS Russia- And winning decisively.

    Also- They could pull a similar move further east and *go around* the front line in Ukraine flanking Russia’s prepared defenses and cause all sorts of havoc.

  34. I hope it’s at least scorched earth for anything that Russia might need later. Because they aren’t keeping it.

  35. I’m surprised Ukraine has any able bodied fighting men… methinks it’s a US/NATO backed mercenary force.

  36. Good, stomp a mud hole in their asses and walk that sumbitch dry.

  37. Initially I thought this might just be an exceptionally large raid, but the more I am seeing the more I am becoming convinced that Ukraine is trying to gain a foothold in Russia for long-term occupation. Not because they want the land or have imperial ambitions of annexation, but just because the *optics* of it *within Russia* might have an outsize effect on eroding the will to fight for average Russian citizens.

    Or I could be completely wrong. Those Ukrainians are a wily bunch.

  38. Risky

    This is the one thing that might make Putin reach for the Button…
