Russians Warned.
Don't come, you will be killed. But noo! They thought that Iraq and Afghanistan was the shit. Same as Wehrmacht thought that France and Low Countries will be repeated in USSR. They just don't learn, do they?
Translation: MOSCOW, May 19 — RIA Novosti. Russian military captured a group of mercenaries from the Mozart PMC in the village of Novoandreyevka in the Zaporizhia region, the coordinator of the Nikolaev underground, Sergei Lebedev, told RIA Novosti. "Novoandreyevka. <...> Destruction of a company of the Mozart PMC (foreign mercenaries). <...> Enemy losses: 23 killed, seven captured (citizens of Great Britain and Canada)," the agency's source said.
Well, that's not a company, that's platoon, but still--boys didn't understand what they were getting themselves into. Meanwhile, Russians are losing so badly now that another batch of Leopards and Bradleys has been disposed of today.
Remember Sebastian Gorka?
And his opinion about the meeting of Trump and Putin being "imminent"? Well ...
Пресс-секретарь российского президента Дмитрий Песков заявил, что переговоры о встрече лидеров России и США сейчас не ведутся. Встреча между президентом России Владимиром Путиным и президентом США Дональдом Трампом на данный момент не готовится, передает ТАСС. Пресс-секретарь Кремля Дмитрий Песков ответил журналистам на вопрос о возможности организации переговоров между двумя лидерами. «Нет, сейчас не готовится», – сообщил Песков, комментируя потенциальную встречу Путина и Трампа.
Translation: Russian presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov said that negotiations on a meeting between the leaders of Russia and the United States are not currently underway. A meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump is not currently being prepared, TASS reports. Kremlin press secretary Dmitry Peskov answered journalists' question about the possibility of organizing talks between the two leaders. "No, they are not currently being prepared," Peskov said, commenting on a potential meeting between Putin and Trump.
Meanwhile, here is Vladimir Putin's explanation (in Russian) the essence of phone call with Donnie--remove root causes, will talk seriously. If not, well, SMO continues.
Meanwhile, Russia is losing. Didn't you know? Hey, British say so.
Putin's generals are 'lying to him' as in reality 'Russia is losing to Ukraine'. Vladimir Putin has no idea Russia is losing in Ukraine because his generals are lying to him, western intelligence sources believe.
So, you see, Putin is completely oblivious, but amateurs from what passes in UK for military and intel (and the excrement collector aka British media) know it better)) Poor, poor dears--I know, transitioning to the third world shithole hurts.

Yes, We Know ...
... it takes "5 hours for Russian tanks to be in Kiev", per Mr.Trump. Obviously, Donnie has a very peculiar relations with geography and with the movement of armor columns on march, but here is what's wrong with his "beautiful" assessment. For starters--here is a theoretical and shortest distance from Sumy to Kiev at which Russians theoretically can "march".
As you can see from the map "as crow flies" distance is around 300 kilometers, if to imagine that Russians attended DJT school of advanced military studies and want to cover this distance on tracks (and wheels) alone--doable, but kills motor resource of the hardware--the speed of the armor column of such nature could be, and that is a good result, on average about 25-30 kilometers per hour. So, if we take 300 kilometers and divide it by 30, we get around 10 hours. But that is theory.
If DJT wants to have an idea (of course he doesn't, he knows it all) what does it mean to move motor rifle battalion on march, here is a good primer from ... Soviet Defense Ministry on how to plan (battalion is the first tactical unit which actually has own staff) and move in column. It is in Russian, but a lot of it is understood in terms of CO Decision, planning and shit like that. Simple stuff, no math is needed for DJT.
This is BEFORE the battalion does anything with piu piu and other exciting shit. A model of moving a whole damn tank army when need be--is a 320 kilometer march (in one day this formation of 951 tanks and self-propelled guns managed to cover more than 100 km) of Pavel Rotmistrov's 5th Tank Army which engaged Hausser's panzer Corps literally on the go. Rotmistrov's army lost almost a third of its tanks during this march. Pay attention to this chapter of Hausser's life--a reason why the US Army has no idea about the war on the Eastern Front and strongly believes that it won WW II.
Following the war, Hausser participated in the work of the U.S. Army Historical Division, where under the guidance of Franz Halder, German generals wrote World War II operational studies for the U.S. Army, first as POWs and then as employees.
But I digress. So, you get the idea about what it would be to move an army size formation to Kiev. Granted Russians want to take the city of almost 3 million, which they don't--only American generals who listened to Wehrmacht and SS generals fairy tales would believe that Russians want Kiev. But I am on record--operational planning? Nah, they don't know what this is.
Meanwhile, the warm up at the front is ongoing today--Konstantinovka-Pokrovsk axes.
More from today;
You see, Russians made a slight and very pleasant mistake, they slightly OVERestimated the staying power of the VSU and broke through faster than anticipated. Hey, not bad. What you see on the maps is called putting the enemy on the split and this exhausting pattern will continue until the order is given. What this order will be, we just have to wait and see. Tomorrow Donnie will be trying to "scare" Putin, LOL)) Donnie, get real military professionals into your Cabinet, albeit it is too late now.
They Do Squeal ...
... like pigs when facing the best army in the world. They didn't squeal when they raped, pillaged, and executed Russians. They'll live, these ones.
This shell-shocked one should consider himself lucky. He is coming to Russian rear facilities and will be treated properly.
And maybe he will learn the lesson.
Just Made My Day.
And proves my point)) Kudos to the guy!
This applies broadly to the West's (US included) military-political top, which brought to us the death of expertise.
Why Disclaimer.
Because one has to maintain at least the pretense of objectivity even with a disclaimer. Cultural shock in military-political circles in the US deepens. So is coping. They grudgingly begin to admit that the US IS NOT a military power it viewed itself as for the last 80 years. Especially in ground forces.
