Suspending the treaty was a dumb move on Putin's part.  The current treaty negotiated under Obama allowed Russia to increase their nuclear arsenal while the US was forced to cut back on theirs, thus giving Russia an advantage on total warheads.

Hero Ukrainian soldier keeps battling Russian tank despite constant barrage of shells and machinegun fire

The brave soldier fought against a savage onslaught of Russian fire near Marinka
He ducked, dodged and weaved through trenches as shells exploded around him
But he was later worn down and made the ultimate sacrifice on the battlefield

By DAVID AVERRE
2 March 2023

Brutal footage has emerged of the moment one brave Ukrainian soldier waged a bitter fight against an entire platoon of Russian troops and their armoured personnel carrier (APC) before making the ultimate sacrifice for his country.

The unnamed soldier was dug into a trench just south of Marinka, a town close to the city of Donetsk in Ukraine's eastern Donbas region where fierce fighting has raged for months.

Drone cameras captured the harrowing footage which saw the soldier fighting desperately against a horde of Russian troops storming his position.

Here is what Putin the "liberator" and "protector" (according to one poster here) has done to Marinka:

Ukraine Steps Up Drone Strikes

Lawrence Person's BattleSwarm Blog

Ukraine has stepped up its drone attacks against a wide spectrum of Russian military infrastructure targets.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fk3qAvhcWU

•  “Ukrainians are reportedly attacking objects from St. Petersburg to Krasnodar, which is a 2,000-kilometer front line in the air.”

•  “Ukrainians have also reportedly accompanied the drone attack with a cyberattack on the Russian regional missile detection system.”

•  They also hit an oil depot in Tuapse, for which Suchomimus has a video:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyo0aqEq8EE

•  That’s way beyond the Kerch Strait Bridge. Back to the first video.

•  “The Russians have also closed the sky near St. Petersburg. After Russian detection systems were set off, Russians reportedly used interceptor jets to eliminate the threat.” That’s more than 1,000km from Kiev, which must have Russian air defense planners freaking out. (Or drinking even more heavily than usual.)

•  The hit a number of targets in Crimea, though many of the drones launched there were shot down, and some were hijacked by Russian electronic warfare countermeasures. (Cue a Cory Doctorow-esque rant about the need for strong encryption.)

•  “Some analysts are saying that Ukrainians are just testing Russian air and electronic defense systems, and are creating an elaborate map for building more sophisticated trajectories. After they finish, these analysts are predicting a much larger scale attack, which would cause a lot of destruction of the airfields, as well as oil refineries and factories producing military equipment.”

•  “The second camp of analysts is saying that the goal of these attacks is to disperse Russian air defense that has been greatly concentrated on the fronts.”
Reporting from Ukraine is usually pretty solid and seems to have sources inside Ukraine’s defense ministry.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

West fails to deliver tanks to Ukraine due to resurgent reluctance and logistics

Ben Aris    |  3 MAR 2023  |  7:36 pm


European countries are struggling to fulfil their promises to send hundreds of tanks to Ukraine quickly. So far only two have arrived and the total number pledged is shrinking slowly.

European leaders say they are facing unexpected resistance from coalition partners or their defence ministries. The call for tanks has also highlighted in what bad shape the equipment of many European conventional forces is in after years of neglect and under-investment, as bne IntelliNews lately highlighted in a feature “running out of ammunition”.  .  .

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/west-fails-to-deliver-tanks-to-ukraine-due-to-resurgent-reluctance-and-logistics/ar-AA18ciFl



Did I call it, or what?  Sending tanks to Ukraine is not the same thing as announcing you are sending tanks to Ukraine.  Same goes for every other piece of equipment they have announced will be sent.

Ukrainian commander says there are more Russians attacking the city of Bakhmut than there is ammo to kill them

Chris Panella  |  Mar 3, 2023  |  12:58 PM


A Ukrainian commander said the situation in Bakhmut, a city in eastern Ukraine, is "critical" and that there are more Russian troops surrounding the city than there is ammunition to kill them all.

Volodymyr Nazarenko, a deputy commander in the National Guard of Ukraine, told Ukrainian NV Radio that the fighting is currently going on "round the clock" as Russians relentlessly push to capture the city, according to a translation from Reuters.

"They take no account of their losses in trying to take the city by assault," Nazarenko said, adding that Ukrainian troops are trying to "inflict as many losses on the enemy as possible."

But it may not be enough.  .  .

Russian State Duma Defense Committee Head Andrey Kartapalov stated that Russian companies should purchase their own air defense systems to defend against drones.

A Russian state-owned news source reported that Kartapalov claimed on March 1 that Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) resources are focused on protecting critical state and military facilities. He argued that every “self-respecting corporation” should be able to purchase and install such systems for themselves.  This bizarre proposal would likely create further security issues for Russia, not resolve them, as the prospect of numerous companies fielding and presumably using their own air defense systems independent of the Russian military should alarm any sane Russian official. Kartapalov’s statements are almost certainly an extension of the domestic panic inflamed by reports of the March 2 incursion into Bryansk Oblast and accusations of recent Ukrainian drones in Russian airspace. Kartapalov may have additionally hoped to place the onus of defense on individual enterprises to frame Ukrainian activity as a direct threat to domestic Russian affairs.

Chechen warlord, Putin ally Ramzan Kadyrov seriously ill — feared poisoned

By Jacob Geanous
March 4, 2023

The warlord leader of Chechnya, one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s main cronies, is reportedly gravely ill with kidney problems, sparking fears that he was poisoned.

Ramzan Kadyrov brought the United Arab Emirate’s chief nephrologist, or kidney specialist, to Grozny, Chechnya’s capital, for treatment, Kazakh journalist Azamat Maytanov reported.

Kadyrov, the leader of the Chechen Republic since 2007, opted for a doctor from outside of the region over concerns that he was poisoned and therefore does not trust Moscow doctors.

“Kadrov is allegedly very bad and has serious kidney problems,” Maytanov wrote.

“Kadyrov is ill and has already become a drug addict,” he continued, citing Akhmed Zakayev, the now-exiled former prime minister of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria . “He claims that some kind of energy pills previously supported the overactivity of the head of Chechnya.”

Russian troops are forced to use SHOVELS during hand-to-hand combat in Ukraine due to a shortage of ammunition as Putin continues to lose his grip on the war

By MIRIAM KUEPPER
5 March 2023

Russian troops have been forced to use shovels during hand-to-hand combat in Ukraine due to a shortage of ammunition as Vladimir Putin continues to lose his grip on the war. 

In the latest update from Britain's Ministry of Defence on the situation in Ukraine, it revealed that Russian mobilised reservists have said they were ordered to assault a Ukrainian concrete strong point armed with only 'firearms and shovels'.

The MoD said the shovels like the MPL 50 were likely also the tools used for hand-to-hand combat.

A standard-issue MPL 50 shovel has the mythologised reputation in Russia of being particularly lethal.

The shovel design hasn't changed much since its first introduction back in 1869. It is small and just 50cm (20in) in length.

Wagner mercenary chief warns the entire Russian frontline is at risk of COLLAPSING if his troops fail to take Bakhmut and are forced to retreat

By DAVID AVERRE
6 March 2023

The founder of Russia's Wagner group of mercenaries has warned the entire frontline will collapse if his troops in the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut do not receive more ammunition.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, whose organisation has played a significant part in Russian military successes in recent months, said his ammo-starved forces were the 'cement' holding the frontline together and the last line of defence to win the war.

'Today, Wagner is the cement that, as I've said previously, is holding the Ukrainian army in place – grinding it down, destroying it and preventing it from deploying to other regions and occupying other fronts.

'We're also moving forward and the [Russian] army is forced to follow behind us to save face and prop up their reputation... If the Wagner group pulls back, then the following situation will unfold.

'It is clear that the front will crumble, the front will crumble for the Russian borders, perhaps it crumbles even further.'

The Ukrainian generals aren't stupid.  If the casualty ratio in Bakhmut was not favorable, they'd have withdrawn already.  They must be stacking up Russians like cordwood.

Ukraine war live updates: Ukraine likely staging ‘tactical withdrawal’ in Bakhmut; Russian mercenary chief’s rift with officials deepens

Holly Ellyatt
March 6, 2023

The status of the besieged city of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine is unclear after conflicting reports at the weekend over how much of the city was controlled by Russian forces, and whether Ukrainian forces were starting to withdraw from parts of the city.

A Ukrainian commander of troops in Bakhmut said on Telegram Sunday that there were “no decisions or orders regarding retreat” and that “the defense is holding” in the city but also characterized the situation in Bakhmut and its outskirts as “very much like hell.”

Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War think tank said Sunday that Ukrainian forces appear to be conducting a “limited tactical withdrawal” in Bakhmut, however, although they noted that “it is still too early to assess Ukrainian intentions concerning a complete withdrawal from the city.”

The ISW noted that “Ukrainian forces are unlikely to withdraw from Bakhmut all at once and may pursue a gradual fighting withdrawal to exhaust Russian forces through continued urban warfare.”

Elite Russian tank brigade suffers 'catastrophic' losses and is refusing to carry out orders after they were repeatedly told to drive to their deaths through infamous Ukrainian mine-filled crossroads

By JAMES REYNOLDS FOR MAILONLINE
6 March 2023

Russia's elite 155th Brigade is reportedly refusing to advance on the Ukrainian town of Vuhledar after suffering 'catastrophic losses' at the settlement's mine-laden crossing point. The armored division appears to have mutinied following orders to drive straight into a heavily fortified minefield dubbed the 'corridor of death' for advancing tanks. Vuhledar has resisted Putin's tactics for months and nearly wiped out the brigade towards the end of January, now reinforced with American anti-vehicle mines.

Putin's elite marine infantry tank brigade - which served in Syria and has been in Ukraine since the start of the war - is a shell of its former self having lost 130 tanks in three weeks of repeated advances around the town, and is today made up mostly of inexperienced recruits. A spokesperson for the Ukrainian military told the Kyiv Post: 'The leaders of the brigade and senior officers are refusing to proceed with a new senseless attack as demanded by their unskilled commanders - to storm well-defended Ukrainian positions with little protection or preparation.' Ukrainian forces around the town of Vuhledar have been locked in 'fierce' battles with Russia in the east for months.

The battered mining town is a hellscape of burned out buildings and artillery bombardment. But Ukraine's use of mines has exacerbated the Russian difficulty through the winter making a sustained advance. Video footage at the end of February showed the moment a Russian BMP infantry fighting vehicle of the 144 Brigade was destroyed after hitting two mines and being hit by an anti-tank weapon.

Horrific video shows Ukrainian POW taking one last drag from a cigarette and saying 'glory to Ukraine' before being 'executed by Russian troops' as Kyiv slams 'heinous war crime'

By MIRIAM KUEPPER
6 March 2023

A horrific video showed a Ukrainian prisoner of war taking one last drag from a cigarette and saying 'glory to Ukraine' before being 'executed by Russian troops' as Kyiv slammed the 'heinous war crime'.

Ukraine's foreign minister urged the International Criminal Court on Monday to probe footage circulating on social media that he said showed Russian forces killing a Ukrainian prisoner of war.

'Horrific video of an unarmed Ukrainian POW executed by Russian forces merely for saying 'Glory to Ukraine'. Another (piece of) proof this war is genocidal,' Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba wrote on social media.
