We were only able to be re-supplied by drones as far back as February on some missions. It’s the reality of the battlefield today - you can’t get vehicles near the zero line.

If all Russians could see from our side how their men are sent wave after wave to inevitable death (inevitable because the last 20 waves ended the same way) with no glory and no point, often without making a sound, or firing a single shot before they go, Russia would stop this war.

Rented an apartment 200 meters from here in 2024. Really good folk living around there. Some market stalls every day. Chatting by the bus stop. Breaks my heart they all had to leave.
