    The article seems a bit sensational but who knows. Also they can’t just roll in with 500 tanks at the same time, they don’t fly, so they’ll have to go down the road of death and get steadily blown up, so I hope!

        Better than those drafted young men killing people defending their homes, raping women and stealing children for “re-education “.

    Didn’t we see this episode at the beginning of the invasion? And that was with soldiers with years of training, an unprepared Ukrainian defense, and without the drone technology and the UA defenders skilled at using it.

    Im no military expert but if they know exactly where they are and really stationary, why doesn’t Ukraine preemptively bomb them?

    It would be a lot easier to defend if the US resumed shipments of artillery shells to Ukraine.

    The UAF is rationing shell usage to 2000 per day, compared to Russia firing 10,000 or more, thanks to supplies from ~~China ~~ North Korea.

    FPV Drones help, but the huge disparity in artillery makes even defending simply not sustainable.

    Please call or write your congressperson to pass Ukraine aid, particularly if you live in a Republican district.
