I have been going through all the Russian armies and special divisions. Why are their leadership so overweight? Yes, I know it is common sight, even the US military leadership seems to be spending too much time at the banquet, but I would have thought that some basics would have broadly applied.

I am bringing this up, since Russia is sending high-command deep into hostile territory, though it is their doctrine to involve leadership in direct troop command. They lost three high ranking commanders in Syria, and they have already lost three in Ukraine, though I believe only two casualties has been acknowledged by the Russians. The US believes that there may be 20, well now 17, high ranking commanders inside Ukraine. As previously said, the Russians still have nine rather large armies which hasn't, yet, invaded Ukraine, ignoring their Black Sea Fleet.

There are other observations I have made, how Russia is deploying armies within their respective military districts, but that requires its own thread. What I can say is that I believe that my previous conscription remarks may be true, but I won’t know until we know what Russia is really doing in Ukraine. For now, as much as it seems that they are in a stalemate, they are making advancements in Southern and Eastern Ukraine, and it is now believed that Kherson is completely captured, and they may take Mykolaiv in the coming days which will open their march to Odessa Oblast. I don’t know whether they will make a move on Kyiv prior to occupying Odesa. They would want to hold the most captured chess pieces when they announce their ultimatum to the capitol.

Pressure back home, in Russia, may bring an end to all this, but I have no idea about the current Russian sentiment, all I know is that many Russians are leaving Russia at this time or are at least attempting to do so.

I wonder at what date specifically this aversion to bombing civilian areas believed to pose a risk materialized that had never existed before......

TBH this more and more seems to have been a last ditch gamble by a desperate man feeling the walls close in around him..... much more so fear than ambition.

Poland is seeing a huge influx of Russians, they have laid on extra trains to accommodate.

We still only have the media and social media to gauge by. It is incredibly hard to determine anything at this time. For all we know, the current situation Russia is in, could have all been anticipated by them.

Bin getting odd youtube reccommendations about random old prophesies of Russia wiping out all of Europe with "secret armies" if it does not repent and pray..... probably just old demoralization propaganda re-surfacing.

Finland too. Russians afraid of their own government, because they have their own opinions, are getting the heck out of dodge.

Talk about worth it. I highly recommend it.

A bit confused with that bold part, if I understand that part, you're referring to troops which are currently outside of Ukraine and will at some point move into Ukraine?
