Part 4...Russia Invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES) - No GORY videos..or Politics


Can someone please explain how/why the Kerch bridge hasn't been dropped yet ?
I dont think its being used for any kind of military transport as it would be easily picked off..there are no ferries running either and ukraine now has fire control over the only road into the peninsula and is destroying everything heading to crimea...in summary...its still open because it will be the only route out if for civilians ( which they are now starting to leave) when Ukraine launches an attack to take it back

I have heard some experts saying that the Ukrainians want to give the Russians a way out. There is still a large Russian civilian population there. These are the Russian who were encouraged to move there when Putin took control of the Crimea.

Ukraine would rather they go "voluntarily" than have to deal with a large trapped and resentful population of Ruskies at some later date. It also looks better if they go of their own accord rather than as refugees. Apparently quite large numbers of these people have been returning to Russia since the war started.

I wouldn't be surprised but it also doesn't have much strategic value. The Russians can't use it as they are sitting targets as it is so easy to see anything coming over on it. Can you imagine how long a military convoy would last on it?

Leaving it shows it to be redundant and looking even more ridiculous. Its time will come.

He is great at covering this war. It's good that Ukraine have the upper hand in the drone technology and effective strategies in stopping the Russian advance and now starting to make advances in this terrible war. However, It's also scary outlook on how war is changing to a 'Skynet' type of development and trillions being invested by both good and bad governments around the world in finding better ways to kill each others people.

Unkraine is doing what they have to do out of necessity to keep the Russians back and fortunately it is working quite well now, but the future of war and the new type of arms race, is scary to think about in the wrong players hands.

At least for now though on a positive note, Ukraine is starting to control the skies with their ingenuity and those who control the skies, control the land. They are doing their best to stop the beast on the frontline from being fed.

No need! it's already been put out of action for anything other than a standard family car. Even an average mpv or minivan exceeds the weight restriction put in place due to previous Ukraine strikes
That's why the attacks on the road to Crimea are such a threat to the viability of Crimea.

Also will be tying down some Russian defensive assets, Assets that could be used elsewhere , just sat there defending Putins useless dick extension. So nowt to be gained by bringing it down , yet

It’s been that way since the beginning of humanity TB. I’ve always said that if humans had devoted as much time, brain power, energy and wealth into medicine and agriculture as we do into finding new and horrific ways to destroy each other we would have had a cure for all disease and no one would be hungry.
Unfortunately greed, hatred, intolerance and a lust for control over others hasn’t allowed it to happen.
 
Right before the conference. What a humiliation for Putin. That,s now what all those delegates will talk about when they go home to their countries - not some dumb ass new washing machine churned out in Siberia. (Or some drone repelling weapons lol)

in a PR war, which is vital. much better than dropping bombs on civilian targets.

Smart V Stupid.
