It may come down to how much the Russian troops can take before they become even more worthless. As they die in large numbers almost daily. Or before someone takes out Putin ? Ukraine will not allow the Russians to remain in their territory and Putin does not want to leave any Ukrainian lands. The war will continue … The West, etc. must keep supporting the Ukraine and punish Putin and the Russians. We can't let these attacks go on in 21st Century Europe. Sadly, I think Putin and many Russians will not be punished for war crimes. |

Mobile phone use may be used for some targeting information, but, human intelligence is more of a source than is admitted as crediting human intelligence can endanger those humans, so other means are credited. The Russian command would prefer to blame their soldiers for using mobile phones rather than accept the blame for concentrating them in buildings rather than dispersing them or providing bunkers.

If the role of mobile phone use in that particular strike is correct (and not a mask for other forms of intel as previously noted) this is not a new problem. It was widely reported IIRC during the partial mobilisation that there were supposed to be tight restrictions on mobiles as a result of previous issues during the early part of the invasion…. |

Putin is just buying time … he does not have the assets or ability to go on the offensive. Most have already been destroyed, killed, etc. He is hoping for a brokered peace settlement and he gets to keep the Ukraine territory he holds. Then claim victory. We can't let this happen. However, since Day 1 our gov't has been pushing for a peace treaty. Regardless of the territory the Russians want to claim their own. Or the war crimes Putin et al have committed. |

Will Russian President Putin Retire In 2023?
"A former ally of the Russian President talked about the possibility that Putin might retire soon, rather then potentially getting killed in a coup.
A source who was close to Putin once claimed that "the president will nominate his chosen heir already this year, instead of risking his downfall," the British Daily Mail reported on Friday. This comes after the Russian president's popularity is reportedly in a freefall because of repeated military failures in the war in Ukraine…"

A former Wagner mercenary defected to Norway After all this time I believe the Wagners have proven to be not that good. But marginally better than the Russian Army Infantry. But as I and others have said, modern weapons being so deadly, even 2d rate "soldiers" can cause losses. |
