Russian Defense lines collapsing in Donetsk Oblast.

Now, if I can express my personal opinion in a clear way ...
Russian Army sucks!

Come on! Are Russians serious?
Oh my! My good Vladimir Vladimirovich should consider the option of a dignified way out.

 

That "referendum" makes me think to when in XIX century the Piedmont Kingdom organized a referendum about the annexation of Tuscany.
Believe or not, but in some colleges they recorded more than the 100% of votes in favor of the annexation ... we are still wondering how this was possible!

 

The reflection of Putin was the same with 114% of the population voting for Putin. Supposedly.

 

"Democracy!!!"

 

Searching on "Spook's Telegram" will get you to a page with _very_ graphic images of the war. I won't link to it, because nobody should accidentally click their way to that.

Oddly, it was the pigs eating the body that bothered me, even though that one isn't very graphic.

 

It is odd to think of a human as another animal and food for something else, isn't it? We're used to thinking of ourselves as something separate and special, and of course mentally we kind of are that, but physically and physiologically it's quite another story.

 

You have proof of the fakery?

 

Your proof?

 

Your proof?

 

You aren't kidding about it being graphic.

 

A dignified way out would be suicide and thus avoid potential war crime trials. That could be his own private Nuremberg.

 

Nothing done by Putin and his gang of Russians is Democratic.

 

Correct Russian run referendums or elections are never democratic. If the Pillow Man wants to find fraud he needs to go and audit the Russian staged election.

 

Putin had the results of the sham referendum p4inted up a week before the voting.

 

Drive on.

Ukrainian forces have broken through the front lines in Kherson, one of the four regions Russia’s president Vladimir Putin annexed last week, in the latest blow to Moscow’s military campaign. Russia’s defence ministry on Monday said Ukraine’s forces had “pierced into our defences” thanks to “superior tank divisions” near the town of Zolota Balka, marking Ukraine’s biggest advance in the south since Moscow invaded the country in February. The Russian military is simultaneously losing ground in the east of the country, after a separate Ukrainian counteroffensive took back the major transport hub of Lyman in the Donetsk region from fleeing Russian soldiers at the weekend.

Russian Offensive Campaign ...

Key Takeaways

• 
  
  • Ukrainian forces have made substantial gains around Lyman and in northern Kherson Oblast over the last 24 hours. The Russian units defeated on these fronts were previously considered to be among Russia’s premier conventional fighting forces.
  • Russian President Vladimir Putin may use the appointment of Lieutenant-General Roman Berdnikov to the command of the Western Military District to redirect blame for recent or future Russian military failures in Kharkiv Oblast.
  • Russian officials released the director of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, whom they had illegally detained, and are likely continuing to undermine Ukrainian control of the plant.
  • Ukrainian forces made advances on the Oskil River-Kreminna line towards the Luhansk oblast border.
  • Ukrainian forces advanced in northern Kherson Oblast.
  • Russian President Vladimir Putin is introducing punitive measures to target the Russian bureaucratic institutions responsible for the execution of partial mobilization.
  • Russian officials acknowledged that the Kremlin intends to invade, occupy, and illegally annex additional Ukrainian territory in the south and east and may alter the claimed borders of its occupied territories.
  • The Russian State Duma approved the Kremlin’s illegal accession treaties on October 3 and laid out the administrative timeline for integrating illegally annexed Ukrainian territory into the Russian Federation. . . .

Ukrainian forces continued to make gains in eastern Kharkiv Oblast in the direction of the Luhansk Oblast border on October 2 and 3. The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) inadvertently confirmed that Ukrainian troops advanced east of Kupyansk on October 2 and claimed that Russian forces struck Ukrainian positions in Petropavlivka (8km east of Kupyansk) and Synkivka (10km northeast of Kupyansk).[11] A Russian milblogger reported on October 2 that Ukrainian forces are preparing for further eastward advances from the Kupyansk-Petropavlivka area and claimed on October 3 that Ukrainian troops conducted reconnaissance-in-force near Zahorukivka, 16km east of Kupyansk.[12]

Ukrainian forces additionally made gains near the Kharkiv-Luhansk Oblast border west of Svatove on October 3. Geolocated footage shows Ukrainian troops in Borova and Shyikivka, both within 35km west of Svatove, which was later confirmed by the Borova City Council and various Russian milbloggers.[13] Ukrainian sources additionally reported that Ukrainian troops retook Izyumske and Druzhelyubivka, about 25km southwest of Svatove.[14]

Ukrainian troops continued to consolidate gains around Lyman on October 2 and 3 and likely made gains in the direction of the Luhansk Oblast border. The Russian MoD stated that Russian troops struck Ukrainian positions in Yampolivka on October 2, confirming that Ukrainian troops control territory about 15km northeast of Lyman and within 10km west of the Luhansk Oblast border.[15] Russian sources also stated that Ukrainian troops took control of Terny and Torske, 15km northeast and 13km east of Lyman, respectively.[16] Ukrainian troops reportedly advanced to a segment of highway near Chervonopopivka and Pishchane, both of which lie along the Svatove-Kreminna road within 5km north of Kreminna.[17] Russian sources discussed these Ukrainian advances east of Lyman with great concern and suggested that Ukrainian troops will likely move towards the Luhansk Oblast border and attack Kreminna, 30km east of Lyman.[18] Russian troops, including elements of the BARS-13 detachment and the 20th Combined Arms Army withdrew from the Lyman area before October 2 and re-established themselves in Kreminna, where Russian sources claim the new frontline lies.[19] . . .

Ukrainian forces continued to advance in northeastern Kherson Oblast between October 2 and 3. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukrainian forces liberated Myrolyubivka (19km southeast of Vysokopillya) and Arkhanhelske on the Inhulets River south of the Kherson-Dnipropetrovsk Oblast border.[22] The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) acknowledged that Ukrainian forces have penetrated Russian defenses in the direction of Zolota Balka (approximately 82km northeast of Nova Kakhovka), and Russian troops withdrew to prepared defensive positions.[23] Social media footage published on October 1 also showed Ukrainian forces operating in the northern part of the T0403 highway.[24] Russian milbloggers claimed that the Russians first retreated to defensive positions in Mykhailivka (about 8km south of Zolota Balka) on October 1 but likely fell further back to Dudchany (about 24km south of Zolota Balka) on October 2.[25] Ukrainian forces continued to advance south in the direction of Nova Kakhovka, and geolocated footage showed that they liberated Mykhailivka, Havrylivka, and Novooleksandrivka along the T0403.[26] Social media footage and Russian milblogger discourse also indicated that Ukrainian forces made advances west of the T0403 highway, liberating Khreschenivka on October 1.[27] Russian sources also reported that Ukrainian forces liberated settlements on the Lyubomyrivka-Bilaivka-Novoolesandrivka line.[28] . . .
