Bit harsh as many Russians were arrested for protesting. Granted, a few months ago.

Bit harsh as many Russians were arrested for protesting. Granted, a few months ago.
It is when combined with real time drone recon.Amazing piece of kit.
I hope that's true.An astonishing statistic over the last few months of this war.
The Russians lose on average 10 tanks / armored vehicles a day and the Ukrainians 2.
Of those 10 Russian loses 5 are captured or repaired by Ukraine and redeployed a few weeks later as Ukrainian vehicles.
That means Russia Is actually arming its opponent with 3 tanks for every 10 it loses.
Those loses are unsustainable. Indeed, an army that arms its oponnents is doomed.
Nowhere near encircling.Ukraine rejects Russian claims that eastern city of Bakhmut is surrounded, though intense fighting continues
Intense fighting continues around the city of Bakhmut in the eastern Donetsk region, according to both Russian and Ukrainian accounts.
The city has become an important target for Russian forces, which have had no success in recent months in winning territory in eastern Ukraine and have been forced to withdraw from many areas. Social media video over recent days has illustrated the immense destruction in Bakhmut, where thousands of people still live, without power and piped water.
Denis Pushilin, the Russian-appointed leader of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic, said on Monday that Russian forces were now close to encircling Bakhmut.
“The situation in Bakhmut remains difficult, but our units, in particular the Wagner group unit, are definitely moving forward," Pushilin said on Russian television.
Wagner is a private military contractor whose fighters have played a significant role in the fighting in Donetsk and Luhansk.
"There is also success in the vicinity of Bakhmut. The situation of the operational encirclement is quite close,” Pushilin claimed.
What Ukraine is saying: Ukrainians have acknowledged Russian offensives in the area but deny losing any ground.
The Ukrainian military's General Staff said Monday that "the enemy continues to focus its main efforts on conducting offensive operations," listing about half-a-dozen settlements in the Bakhmut area.
Serhii Cherevatyi, spokesperson for the military in the east, said on Ukrainian television Monday that "Bakhmut remains the epicenter of the main battle for Ukraine. The enemy acts most aggressively in this direction. He conducts attacks and fire strikes. On average, the enemy inflicts about 180-200 artillery strikes per day."
