Because they wouldn't have enough capacities for a third front. If they opened a second front this would be watched with high interest by for example Georgia or Azerbaijan who would love to get regions like South Ossetia or Nagorno-Karabach (back) under their control by force.
The Russian capability to still open a second front is the only reason why we don't have all out war in that region now, nonetheless tensions are rising (especially Azerbaijan slowly tries to move forward in Nagorno-Karabach and there is not really anyone stopping those slow advances now)
That is almost 35,000 feet. Holy shit.
Mind blowing, especially with such an ancient platform.
It’s nonsense unless that front would be made up from conscripts/unmotivated and out of shape reservists only and that would require a general mobilization anyway which the regime can’t afford.
Absolutely. Speaks to the skill of the operator
Recycling the wounded. Smells like desperation to me.That 50 ruble wound don’t hit like it used to
The old and the wounded. What is next? Teenagers and the crippled?
This is just madness.
Call me a cynic but it almost sounds like he thinks a peace treaty with Russia keeping Ukrainian lands and everything else to go back to normal would be a good idea.
Kind of amazing anyone still opens their mouth in Russia to say anything but Putin authorized statements in public.
RIP, brave of them all to take a stand.
Reprimanding a Russian for drinking, when has that ever gone well?
especially standing next to a window
There’s cctv of the accidental fall that’s been released
I walked into that one.
It was in the first days of March when anti-war statements weren’t criminalized yet. It’s still a brave move though.
Had a long Whatsapp talk with 2 friends who have a 'Russia was provoked into the war' stance.
Its so tiresome. Have only myself to blame. But its a stance shared by a lot of people.

Ah, okay I remember that. Interesting Putin waited a while to kill him. Perhaps he made further moves internally that resulted in his murder, and the letter wasn't the cause.
When the real fascists come to your country/city (Severodonetsk):
You got to give it to Russia. Deadly assasinations, poisoning people, using radioactivity to kill people, people falling through a hospital window - normally you would see that in expensive Hollywood movies and think "that's a tad unrealistic"
We even have a term for it in filmmaking here - “suspension of disbelief”.
They even have a startup challenge for inventing novel ways to kill people. no
If they are able to use heavy drones against mortar teams that are usually deployed 1-5km behind the frontlines, they must have taken out most of the Russian air defence radars and EW jammers in the area.
Difficult to see what I’m watching- is that ammunition exploding after it’s been hit?
Looks like it.
Must be absolutely terrifying to be caught in that. My sympathy levels remain zero though
You can see the one guy running towards another guy to try to get them away from the target. They didn’t quite make it.
The US gave Ukraine advice about the offensive.
