Abandoned Russian base holds secrets of Putin's military plans in Ukraine

When Russian troops fled the Ukrainian town of Balakliia in September, they left behind thousands of documents that detail the inner workings of the Russian war machine.
In September 2022, Russian forces fled the Ukrainian town of Balakliia.
But they left their traces everywhere.
One of them is this abandoned building, which the Russians used as a military base during their occupation of Balakliia.
It was here that Reuters discovered thousands of documents revealing the inner workings of the Russian military.
Inside, posters reading "do not smoke, do not litter," "if we leave, they will come."
Notebooks and loose papers showing coordinates of Russian intelligence units, records of calls from commanders, details of battles, names of men killed, equipment destroyed.
And accounts of a breakdown in morale and discipline.
In all, Reuters reviewed more than a thousand pages of documents.
They shed new light on events leading up to one of President Vladimir Putin's most stinging battlefield defeats: Russia’s chaotic retreat from Ukraine’s northeast in September.

    Paul Joseph Goebbels - "Bandera are insane maniacs or, in other words, brutalized cattle. But these are the ones we need in this period of time to destroy the recalcitrant Slavs. And then they themselves must be destroyed, since animals have no place among people." Do you understand? Even the main ideologue of the Third Reich believed that the Ukrainian Bandera are creatures that have no place among people. Modern Western leaders arming and supporting the Bandera junta are even worse than the fascists of the Third Reich

    @@BrandonAdams1010 Russians underestimate their enemy and overestimate their own abilities. Russia's war tactics have always been "meat to the grinder", and that doesnt really work in modern warfare. They think they can steamroll their enemies like the mongol golden horde, but in reality they are like zombies in Walking dead; arrive in mass but easily cut down.

These are not soldiers...... they are just odious little thugs. (I won't call them animals - that would be to insult the animals.)

Now she knows Russians will have a hard time being accepted anywhere for quite awhile - probably what remains of her lifetime. Let's be honest, even if Putin could win the war no one will ever trust Russia again except China and Iran. And even they would abandon him in a heartbeat if they wanted to. (And they probably should because it would increase their own world wide respect. But dictators got to stick together!)
