That guy was an idiot. The objective in that operation was to destroy the enemy forces. This is why we have public affairs people who can actually think about what they say.
South Vietnam and Ukraine are very similar, and if we don't get our shit together in the West, they'll wind up the same way.
Because north vietnam killed or imprisoned anyone in military/authority in south vietnam. Or they went into hiding.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnamese\_boat\_people
It took them about for months and gigantic losses to take one small town that's close to their logistics line. That's not much of a victory in the long run.
Calling early victories, yet fighting continues for months is typical russian way
[Kyiv in 3-4 days](https://twitter.com/nexta_tv/status/1498185064617762816?lang=en), Kherson will be Russian forever, right Putin? Right?
Didn’t this happen at bakhmut aswell? Videos of Russians waving flags inside the city only to be killed or pushed back multiple times the following days for months on end?
Edit: and who could forget Azovstal.
Coke plant is lost too, there is a video of them hosting a Russian flag on the coke plant as well
Looks like the Ukrainians either ran like Usain Bolt or got killed/captured
Bro this is literally every war. Think of the battle to take the grain elevator in the middle of Stalingrad or the defense of Pavlov’s house there just random ass places where thousands fell.
Verdun was not an obscure place. German High Command explicitly chose Verdun for the battle because it was one of the biggest and most prestigious forts in France and knew, that the french army would do everything to hold it.
Militaries have finite resources and so Ukraine is defending areas away from major cities for obvious reasons, which means Russia has to attack those areas. But now that this battle is lost, there maybe significantly less resistance after it. Either way, Russia has to capture every square inch one way or another to "win". It really doesn't matter where they win if Ukraine has to put enormous resources towards it also.
The result of tens of thousands of lives and hundreds of armored vehicles. Yeah and they finally took the city of 32 000 people (pre-invasion). And it's all while AFU has a very bad shortage of artillery shells due to the EU not fulfilling it's promises to provide 1M artillery shells till winter, due to France and Greece blocking procurement of shells by the EU from other countries and Ukrainian aid is stuck in the US Congress. So it took so much for russians to take this city, so many lives have fallen it's fucking insane how much they will sacrifice for nothing. They are psychos.
That's within a span of 2 years. The battle has been going on since like the start of the invasion. It's similar to how Wagner lost 20,000 troops within a span of 9 months during the battle of Bakhmut.
There were definitely some ukrainian casualties, but no estimate has been made so far. However, according to Wikipedia, some 800 to 1000 Ukrainian soldiers have been captured by the Russians during their withdrawal from the city.
You do realize Russia can expend its soldiers because it has a larger population of conscripts it can mobilize. People think Ukraine is struggling because of ammo. Ukraine is struggling to get conscripts to the front lines. It’s a war of attrition. It’s like every NATO retard can’t figure this simple concept out.
"Every NATO retard", іди ти нахуй з такими заявами, друже. Conscription is a very big problem too, but don't underestimate ammo shortage. I know people that are fighting on the frontlines also near Avdiika and they say not me that 155, 152 artillery shells is the main problem cause they can't do effective counter battery fire and can't fire at russian attacks as much as they need to stop them. Сам сидиш в своїй західній багатій країні і применшуєш нашу потребу в зброї.
Yea you show them! Bet putins crying his eyes out rn! Buddy unfortunately this is just what humans have been doing since the beginning of time. And people will keep wasting and taking life for concrete and city blocks well into the foreseeable future
It is cringe celebrating the fact the Russian military has no combat ability that is not sending bullet sponges towards Ukrainians. Requires that the other side does not receive aid. Very suspicious
Yeah… Russians are true winners. Invading a smaller country to feel powerful. Real winner energy. Russia is a loser nation and the whole world knows it. If you don’t dig it up from the dirt or steal it you can’t produce nothing of value. Morally bankrupt nation with slave mentality. Why dont you fix your shit hole country first?
Slave Rossiya! Now we will spend 30,000 men trying to capture another Ukrainian town because we have advanced so far in warfare we've went ourselves back into 1916
The full might military of Russia, Iran and North Korea has finally taken the front line town of Avdiivka with a pre-war population of 30,000 after 2 years of constant fighting. (10 years if you include the 8 before the full scale invasion)
Y’all act like Russia cares about its people. For the west this would be a defeat. But for them, the town is captured. Mission accomplished. They aren’t thinking about what it takes to get there. Idk if they really can keep up the man power but they don’t seem to be afraid of losing numbers in vast as of yet. No large uprisings at home or within units yet either. No huge surrendering still small groups or individuals. I can’t imagine they can ever take a major city tho the way they struggle taking small towns
Chief of ukranian army announced the retreat a day ago and since then, multiple western sources have confirmed avdiivka is fallen. It's literally all over the news and reddit right now, you don't need to go very far to confirm it's true.
Hamas attacked Israel almost every single day with rockets,
then they did 7 Oct.
And the arabs countries started every war against Israel since 1948.
Hamas is clearly the aggressor.
Tens of thousands of Dead Russians just to take a Small Town. 🤷🤦♂️
Ukrainian Defense is just gonna Reposition and then Russia will to the Meat Assaults all over again. 😂
They lost hundreds of armored vehicles and thousands of soldiers.. wasted to capture this town.
Same waste-ful zombie-"tactic / strategy" as in the other cities.
The russians just don't care about their own loses.. - Insane and primitive.
Ukraine did the same to hold the city as long as possible instead of pulling out, even though it was destined to fall in Russian hands. Both sides are wasting their manpower and vehicles. Russia can afford to out resource Ukraine, as Russia does in every war.
(Full Ukraine supporter btw 🇺🇦)
It’s so stupid, seeing all of you braindead sheep, believing in this nonscence about russia’s higher casualty rates, when in fact, there was only one mobilization wave, yet ukros are on their 14th round
Russia has mobilised tons of times, and Ukraine is not on any 14th round.
Russian nazis calling Ukrainains "ukros / ukrops" shows how nazi they are.
Ukraine does not have 143 million citizens like Russia does, so needing to recruit poor people from poorest countries & mercenaries and war tourists from all over the 3rd world is quite pathetic when fighting a smaller country.
U are so braindead ffs.
Stop listening to cnn and pravda.ua
And also, i didn’t see any waves of mobilization in russia, except for one and only, so do some research before commenting bullshit
So what, Lukashenko said many things. As all leaders across the world tend to.
You are not tired of repeating the same sentence?
Show me where nafo crushes anything? Ukros losing every checkpoint while crying about how bad the situation is. As it was with Bakhmut and now happened to Avdiivka
I mean, when the alternative to fighting is all your women and children being raped by filthy little shit eating russians, who genocide everything you stand for, kill your parents and castrate your sons. Obliterate your cities and villages, cause ecocide by blowing up dams. honestly, the real point is that Ukraine losses are basically pointless to discuss. They are tragic, yes, but the alternative is so horrifying that defending is the only option. There is no surrender or defeat on the cards. There is no limit to what ukraine casualties will take on the shoulders.
Because they will not give up or surrender, russians torture and mutil1ate prisoners, Ukraine doesn't, because they want to get their prisoners back from sadistic russians.
It's like vietnam, russias vietnam. But instead of rice farmers with aks vs. a world superpower, it's a determined modern fighting force made of heroes by circumstance, vs russian rat eating cowards and promise breakers.
You seem pro russian, so fuck you, and good day.
14th round... Someone consumes only ruzzian MoD info. You must be proud to take a small town of 32,000 while losing more to get it. This war only cost ruzzia its future.
And you must be one of those guys, who believes in ukr re-counts of destroyed military personel and armor.
This war will delete ukraine as a country, and damage to russia will be “meh”
Ukraine had lots of losses to hold that "pointless" city as many like to call it in the comments. Ukraine literally poured in hundreds of men with no more then 3 days of training into the meat grinder. Not to mention all lost equipment there.
(Ukraine supporter btw 🇺🇦)
Its like one of those world war I memes. The capture of the city (With a not so important strategic importance btw) came at the cost of tens of thousands of death. Bet russia TV would call this flawless victory
They sound super lame though at the end lol. I just google mapped this place and realized they are still fighting over border towns... That's pathetic.
It’s so strange to see the Shaka hand sign being co opted by the Russians and other militaries.
It has it start in Hawaiian culture and surfing it is mostly used as a friendly gesture to hang loose.
I have seen some moral patches of it with a skeletonized hand in the US during GWOT. But don’t know how it got popular in Russia.
It's gonna get real tough for the nazi Ruzzians now that there will be unconditional military support to Ukraine.
The billionaire Putin could had made life easy for him, but he chose to follow Hitler's path. Egocentric megalomaniac idiot.
\*standing in-front of a ginormous pile of corpses, destroyed tanks and cars\* "We did it, Boris! We saved Avdiivka from the jewish nazis!"
'We had to destroy the village in order to save it' Reminds me of a comment by an unnamed US army major during the Vietnam War.
That guy was an idiot. The objective in that operation was to destroy the enemy forces. This is why we have public affairs people who can actually think about what they say. South Vietnam and Ukraine are very similar, and if we don't get our shit together in the West, they'll wind up the same way.
South Vietnam and Ukraine are Not the same none of the people of Vietnam supported south Vietnam😂💀
You spoke like you were there
I know Vietnamese people and i know what america did there so its pretty obvious If you know anything about history 😉
Because north vietnam killed or imprisoned anyone in military/authority in south vietnam. Or they went into hiding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnamese\_boat\_people
As it should be south vietnam was nothing more than a American vasal state
Disgusting human you are.
Because I support vietnamese fight against imperialism alright buddy 🤣
Again, you spoke like you know anything at all
Again you Just say stuff without really saying anything🤡
Go lick diems boots oh wait hes dead💀
[удалено]
Wrong there is a minority but there are people
Continuing coping as they take the next city 😂
Yeah… with this pace they take kyiv in like 100 years…
It took them about for months and gigantic losses to take one small town that's close to their logistics line. That's not much of a victory in the long run.
It's literally next to Donetsk city
Yes? What's your point?
Russia lost 15% of their available armor attacking this one small city. Very small city. Phyrus said something about 'victories' like this.
I wish kiev is in ruins
Because your life and your country are so shitty that you wish the same upon others out of jealousy?
Well it's not.
Calling early victories, yet fighting continues for months is typical russian way [Kyiv in 3-4 days](https://twitter.com/nexta_tv/status/1498185064617762816?lang=en), Kherson will be Russian forever, right Putin? Right?
Nope, it's abandoned
Didn’t this happen at bakhmut aswell? Videos of Russians waving flags inside the city only to be killed or pushed back multiple times the following days for months on end? Edit: and who could forget Azovstal.
Yes. A lot of Russian "victories" have been from them securing outskirts and such, then spending several months slogging to the centre.
Yeah just like avdivka
“Mission accomplished”
Where's the source that the Avdiivka coke plant is still being contested?
Coke plant is lost too, there is a video of them hosting a Russian flag on the coke plant as well Looks like the Ukrainians either ran like Usain Bolt or got killed/captured
Not sure you can say they ran like Usain bolt when it took Russia how long and Russia lost how many assets?
What is the yellow and blue flag please?
Flag of the Republic of Tuva, one of the republics that are part of the Russian Federation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuva?wprov=sfti1#
Thank you 👍
Wasting huge amount of manpower to capture a small district.
Bro this is literally every war. Think of the battle to take the grain elevator in the middle of Stalingrad or the defense of Pavlov’s house there just random ass places where thousands fell.
Important battles often happen in obscure places, think Verdun for example
Verdun was not an obscure place. German High Command explicitly chose Verdun for the battle because it was one of the biggest and most prestigious forts in France and knew, that the french army would do everything to hold it.
Adivkaa is a fort as well.. one of the most fortified areas on the front. and now its Russian.
Agincourt
Or Gettysburg
Midway Atoll
It's a pretty big loss for Ukraine tbf
Why?
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-68322527

It really doesn't matter where they win if Ukraine has to put enormous resources towards it also.
At the same time this was a concerningly competent attack.
Oh you mean the Ukraine 2023 conter offensive? Lol
Ukropcope
It only took 8 years
Realistically 2*
The result of tens of thousands of lives and hundreds of armored vehicles. Yeah and they finally took the city of 32 000 people (pre-invasion). And it's all while AFU has a very bad shortage of artillery shells due to the EU not fulfilling it's promises to provide 1M artillery shells till winter, due to France and Greece blocking procurement of shells by the EU from other countries and Ukrainian aid is stuck in the US Congress.

No it's within a span of 4.5 months. They started a new attack last autumn
Oh, right. Sorry. I still think that 30,000 soldiers killed in a such short timespan might be an overestimate though.
Don't think so based on the things that I've been told by my brother from air reconnaissance
Sorry for my ignorance, but was were the Ukrainian troops lost during that time?
There were definitely some ukrainian casualties, but no estimate has been made so far. However, according to Wikipedia, some 800 to 1000 Ukrainian soldiers have been captured by the Russians during their withdrawal from the city.

Looser nation Russia. Go and create something. Standing in ruin of a small city is an achievement? How? Losers
Story of every human and country duh
No Adviika?
Yea you show them! Bet putins crying his eyes out rn! Buddy unfortunately this is just what humans have been doing since the beginning of time. And people will keep wasting and taking life for concrete and city blocks well into the foreseeable future
Oh no, Russia is now destroyed by your comments
Still true… at least i can say it. Not like in your slave paradise Russia. Fix your shit stained country first orc
Go look at mariople how it is now after 1 year of projects 😂
I think calling it a town fits better. It's pretty small and had a small population.
Russia after reading this: 😭
A gift from American Republicans for the Russian army. Mike Johnson is a traitor, this is good fault!!!
It is cringe celebrating the fact the Russian military has no combat ability that is not sending bullet sponges towards Ukrainians. Requires that the other side does not receive aid. Very suspicious
Keep believing that 😂
Russians are losers dude…
Yeah the winners abandoned cities
Yeah… Russians are true winners. Invading a smaller country to feel powerful. Real winner energy. Russia is a loser nation and the whole world knows it. If you don’t dig it up from the dirt or steal it you can’t produce nothing of value. Morally bankrupt nation with slave mentality. Why dont you fix your shit hole country first?
Hasn’t literally every powerful country taken over a smaller one?
Sounds like USA you just described
Didn't read too long
I had the feeling complex thoughts are lost on you…
Adviivka was liberated and is now safe.
Braindead orc logic sure…
Pro Ukraine thrive off censorship to push their lies.
Sure Orc… whatever floats your boat
Punch of clowns 🤡🤡🤡
Cry louder
Sad, but expected.
Slave Rossiya! Now we will spend 30,000 men trying to capture another Ukrainian town because we have advanced so far in warfare we've went ourselves back into 1916
The only problem is they have any number of people needed. Back in WWII, they lost 20 millions.
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
"If I achieve such a victory again, I shall return to Epirus without any soldier"
Wow
At their current pace Russia will be able to take the parts of Ukraine they declared were Russia a year ago in as little as 3 to 4 decades.
The full might military of Russia, Iran and North Korea has finally taken the front line town of Avdiivka with a pre-war population of 30,000 after 2 years of constant fighting. (10 years if you include the 8 before the full scale invasion)
These are the people who came to collect bodies of people who temporarily took Avdiivka.
Terrorists
What happened with calling them orcs?
Its not really a victory considering their losses lol. Just wish more of them met their maker. Slava Ukraini!
Lmao nice cope. Ukraine lost, got their asses kicked. A city they fortified for a decade lost in a matter of months.
Would u consider the battle of Berlin a loss for the Soviets cause they lost thousands there too?
“Someday this war is gonna end”
Y’all act like Russia cares about its people. For the west this would be a defeat. But for them, the town is captured. Mission accomplished. They aren’t thinking about what it takes to get there. Idk if they really can keep up the man power but they don’t seem to be afraid of losing numbers in vast as of yet. No large uprisings at home or within units yet either. No huge surrendering still small groups or individuals. I can’t imagine they can ever take a major city tho the way they struggle taking small towns
Bruh, the copium is insane in this sub
Does anyone know the estimated KIAs of Russian troops?
Another smoldering heap of rubble. Sure are proud of themselves. I'm sure all the loss of lives were worth it.
Thats how urban battle works
Don't worry, the Ukrainians just launched a counter-counter-offensyiv
SLAVA RUSI!
It only cost them 400K cowards but they did it!
my man where's the proof of that place being Avdiivka you can like stand in front of a government building there like town hall at least
Chief of ukranian army announced the retreat a day ago and since then, multiple western sources have confirmed avdiivka is fallen. It's literally all over the news and reddit right now, you don't need to go very far to confirm it's true.
2nd guy from the left looks so badass for no fucking reason
Btw I don’t take sides
You should… not taking the side of the victim is siding with the aggressor.
Try telling that to Amy Israeli supporter
Hamas attacked Israel almost every single day with rockets, then they did 7 Oct. And the arabs countries started every war against Israel since 1948. Hamas is clearly the aggressor.
I thought fighting back against nations who annex your territory is good? Or do you expect people to just give up their land?
You clearly don't know any history. Stay ignorant then
Tens of thousands of Dead Russians just to take a Small Town. 🤷🤦♂️ Ukrainian Defense is just gonna Reposition and then Russia will to the Meat Assaults all over again. 😂
Avdiivka is extremely important lol
They lost hundreds of armored vehicles and thousands of soldiers.. wasted to capture this town. Same waste-ful zombie-"tactic / strategy" as in the other cities. The russians just don't care about their own loses.. - Insane and primitive.
Ukraine did the same to hold the city as long as possible instead of pulling out, even though it was destined to fall in Russian hands. Both sides are wasting their manpower and vehicles. Russia can afford to out resource Ukraine, as Russia does in every war. (Full Ukraine supporter btw 🇺🇦)
The war is lost
Because Ukraine is getting wrecked
It’s so stupid, seeing all of you braindead sheep, believing in this nonscence about russia’s higher casualty rates, when in fact, there was only one mobilization wave, yet ukros are on their 14th round
Yeah drawing a bunch of buryats and poor minorities and mercenaries from africa, china, cuba, syria and nepal is a clear sign of strength, lmao
It’s not like there are bunch of mercs and war tourists fighting willingly for ukros
Russia has mobilised tons of times, and Ukraine is not on any 14th round. Russian nazis calling Ukrainains "ukros / ukrops" shows how nazi they are. Ukraine does not have 143 million citizens like Russia does, so needing to recruit poor people from poorest countries & mercenaries and war tourists from all over the 3rd world is quite pathetic when fighting a smaller country.

Braindead orc identified
Sheep nafoid coping
You swampratz can't even win in Ukraine, NATO crushing, you cope. 3-4 days. to Kyiv as Lukashenko said xD
So what, Lukashenko said many things. As all leaders across the world tend to. You are not tired of repeating the same sentence? Show me where nafo crushes anything? Ukros losing every checkpoint while crying about how bad the situation is. As it was with Bakhmut and now happened to Avdiivka
Cope. This is not how "World's second most powerful military" should have performed.
I mean, when the alternative to fighting is all your women and children being raped by filthy little shit eating russians, who genocide everything you stand for, kill your parents and castrate your sons. Obliterate your cities and villages, cause ecocide by blowing up dams. honestly, the real point is that Ukraine losses are basically pointless to discuss.

Wet Nazi dreams
Coping at its finest.
Don't you have Navalny's death to celebrate?
*nonsense
Once Trump is out of the way for another 4 years, Ukraine will be fine.
There is a time and a place, this is not it.
What ever floats your boat. Imagine being so fucking brainswashed you think ukraine is qorth fighting for.
Sorry, but W Russia for the victory against the West.
And they paid an enormous price for it too, while the Ukrainians withdraw and live to fight another day
U mean die tomorrow?
Ukraine had lots of losses to hold that "pointless" city as many like to call it in the comments. Ukraine literally poured in hundreds of men with no more then 3 days of training into the meat grinder. Not to mention all lost equipment there. (Ukraine supporter btw 🇺🇦)
Yeah, and Ukraine paid nothing. Nice logic
Красавы!
the cope is real
Its like one of those world war I memes. The capture of the city (With a not so important strategic importance btw) came at the cost of tens of thousands of death. Bet russia TV would call this flawless victory
well congratulation you barbaric invaders
The ruins of Avdiivka after wrecking a big chunk of the army deployed there yeah…. Good show 😝
They sound super lame though at the end lol. I just google mapped this place and realized they are still fighting over border towns... That's pathetic.
To be fair Avdiivka was occupied by the Ukrainians since their civil war and was turned into a fortress
Fucking bad.....
Tuvan slaves
*Insert Jamerson luaghing meme here*
fuck rusdia
Tuvan flag is sweet
It took them until such time that tge Republicans created an artificial shell hunger in Ukrainian ranks to take the city.
With every small step we inch closer to victory! Keep going my russian brothers. Ukraine will fall
How does it feel to be a Nazi pig?
How does it u/Spiritual_Case_2010 you Bandarite loving whore
If someone has views opposite of yours, just call em nazis. It’s in liberal playbook
Is it surfing shaka sign?
It’s so strange to see the Shaka hand sign being co opted by the Russians and other militaries. It has it start in Hawaiian culture and surfing it is mostly used as a friendly gesture to hang loose. I have seen some moral patches of it with a skeletonized hand in the US during GWOT. But don’t know how it got popular in Russia.
The bravery demonstrated by Ukrainian forces ain't Avdiivka in the face of overwhelming odds is astounding.
Excuse my ignorance. But what does that flag on the right mean?
Ww3 is coming
It's gonna get real tough for the nazi Ruzzians now that there will be unconditional military support to Ukraine. The billionaire Putin could had made life easy for him, but he chose to follow Hitler's path. Egocentric megalomaniac idiot.
Should’ve launch himars and artillery the moment Russia captured Avdiivka
Still won't show their faces🤣
Victory, gravel pit 😆
The shaka signs are incredibly cringe.
Cartel ahh video lol
Мужчины!
If Ukrainians spent less time filming and making badass videos and taking dumb pictures!
Land can be retaken, lives cannot.
Bro really thinks there FOG 💀💀💀
What does this mean for the state of the war?
Hs a whole nothing but symbolic and strategically they took a fortress
Translation?
