How can Russia be claiming they're "the good guys" when they aren't even telling the relatives of the soldiers that they died? Absolutely disgusting behavior, and now they will have to learn about what happened to their relative or friend through the bitterness of foreign media

As a former paratrooper, I can say we trained hard. However, as fun as it was to parachute, it’s nerve racking to jump into combat. I came close to having to do that during the near Haiti invasion of 1994. Once on the ground, we are light infantry and just as susceptible to being killed as any other combat soldier. It does not surprise me these guys from the 331st got slaughtered in a mechanized war. Since this is a BBC production, the 1st British Airborne Division during WWII at Arnhem suffered a similar fate when forced into something they were not capable of sustaining. Bullets, rockets and bombs don’t care if you wear a special color beret on your head.

Once you hit the DZ, you are Infantry...I spent some time working with former Israeli tank commanders and SF commando's, and was dragged into a discussion on into the preference of being with light troops verses Armor. All of the current anti-tank weapons made armored vehicles a big easy target, was the view of the those in favor of Light Infantry, while tanks were reasonably protected from air bursts and heavy to light weapons. As a old paratrooper, C4/23Abn, 172nd LIB, I still side with Light infantry, one hit on a tank can take out several troops and has a signature hard to hide, while a well dispersed dug in force is harder to dislodge. This can go deeper but the basic are unchanged.

Russia launched 23 airborn operations, 22 were failed. Most known is Hostomel landing. 30 helicopters. 3 shot down. Rest was supposed to provide an air cover to 200 landed, but they were scared by Ukrainian resistance. 200 troops on the ground got such a hard time that Russians canceled next operations. Estimated 60% loss of all special and airborn forces led russia to stop using them

Ilya Ponamarev, a former Russian MP and opposition figure who now lives in Kyiv, says people there see the regiment's fate "as a perfect example of karma".

Yesterday, when two Russian X-22 missiles hit a shopping center in Kremenchug, Russian propagandists immediately began to spread a fake that this was a staging of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which themselves fired on the shopping center, and brought corpses from morgues there in advance ... Orcs admitted today that it was their crime, but with a cheap caveat... Allegedly, the orcs destroyed a warehouse with ammunition nearby, the detonation of which led to the fire of the shopping center. And now, attention! There are now dozens, just dozens of videos from the scene of the tragedy in open sources. Do you hear the sounds of detonation of ammunition on them?

That your efforts were not in vain, but for the betterment of society, even if it was for only Russia's benefit. Unfortunately, everything Russian military is fighting for and dying for is based on lies and for one man's greed and insecurities. It's been a total waste for everyone. Worst part for the Russian military, it was a ginormous war against peace and it was a war crime against humanity to say the least.

For many Russians, one of the most profound unspoken tenets that formed the Soviet system was that human life has no value - except for the lives of the rulers and authorities. "I am nothing" forms a grim legacy inherited from the Soviet Union where multitudes often were repressed, oppressed and sacrificed in whatever manner the leaders deemed appropriate in order to accomplish their goals. It derives not only from that oppressive system, but also from centuries of being subject to autocratic rulers who regularly regarded citizens as property to be used as needed.

Before his assassination after the end of WW2 Gen Patton said during the process of returning displaced Jews, to Germany He noted that after close, peacetime contact with Jews, Russians, and Germany…that we made an error He claimed that we may have defeated the wrong enemy And noted how the soviets were the most disciplined soldiers he had ever seen, attributing it most likely to cruel practices. Something along the lines of Mongolians who had only recently become civilized. If given a choice between living w nazi Germany or the communist soviets, the Germans were far more civilized. He also stated some disturbing observations of the holocaust victims. Implying they were agents of KGB sent to divide German politics and put stress on cultural norms. After blowing the whistle and advocating to finish the war back then, when it was easily winnable, and that waiting made Us weaker and soviets stronger After being called crazy, he wrote to his wife that he wouldnt push the issue any further seeing the semetic influence in our media even back then, he said he would silently bide his time until he could destroy them entirely. He died from a mysterious car wreck shortly after. Despite outrage and cries to investigate the crash, from the , US and western governments refused to look into it. And still refuses to this day

I'm guessing many of those marines had previous combat experience in the heavy battles and skirmishes in the Donbass during the previous 8 years.Also, units in long campaigns typically have high attrition casualty rates - equal to or several times more than the regular number of soldiers designated for the units; meaning regiments and battalions in long brutal campaigns will have many replacements - same as in most wars. Few soldiers on a losing side will not avoid being a casualty over time.

During the fifth month of a full-scale war in Ukraine, a huge amount of evidence has accumulated that Russia does not just intend to occupy our country, it is deliberately perpetrating the genocide of Ukrainians. In my opinion, international partners should open their eyes as wide as possible and understand that they are supporting Ukraine not in the war for its independence and freedom, but for survival. And survival depends on the effectiveness of the use of weapons against Russia on its own territory. After all, the shopping center in Kremenchug was destroyed by an X-22 missile fired by a strategic missile-carrying bomber from Russian airspace. The destruction of infrastructure facilities of the Russian army on the territory of Russia should become a priority, and Ukraine's international partners should recognize this. Warehouses, military units, airfields, repair plants, etc. An ATACMS tactical missile strike at the airfield in Shaikovka would have avoided the tragedy in Kremenchug. But our partners have so far denied us both the provision of tactical missiles for the M270 / M142, and do not welcome strikes on the territory of the Russian Federation. In fact, thus becoming silent accomplices of genocide. Observers of the deaths of Ukrainians... every day. Attacks on military targets of the Russian army on the territory of Russia and Belarus (if necessary) must be supported not only at the geopolitical level, but also technically - by providing the necessary weapons.☂️☂️☔️☔️

"Generals are like Surgeons. They bury their mistakes." They also bury their war crimes. Those surviving troops that committed mass executions of civilians around Kiev were pulled back, rearmed and sent back in. If fortune smiles on the Generals, those boys will die so that none can reveal their orders to kill civilians. If they survive to win then their war crimes will be seen as necessary to assure victory. The Generals win either way. The soldiers lose, the civilians lose.

It's such an old report and it's already been confirmed that those civilians dead in bucha were Ukrainians that supported Russia murdered by their own people and when the Russians came in they were already dead laying on the streets. They were the civilians that refused to flee and were awaiting the Russians but Ukraine used it as A PR start to get more money from the West which zelinski Launders to himself. Look at the Panama papers released on zalenski billion dollar net worth. People kill for $500 on the street but what would someone do for billions? They will allow their whole nation to be dead.

And it is surprising that the work of propagandists even of Russian television in some states continues. This is not about freedom of speech, this is a specific preparation for a war against you, and within your states.

In a way, it’s much like how we remember past wars and the sadness of it all, and this is the tone they have achieved here again.

As a former paratrooper, I can say we trained hard. However, as fun as it was to parachute, it’s nerve racking to jump into combat. I came close to having to do that during the near Haiti invasion of 1994. Once on the ground, we are light infantry and just as susceptible to being killed as any other combat soldier. It does not surprise me these guys from the 331st got slaughtered in a mechanized war. Since this is a BBC production, the 1st British Airborne Division during WWII at Arnhem suffered a similar fate when forced into something they were not capable of sustaining. Bullets, rockets and bombs don’t care if you wear a special color beret on your head.

Once you hit the DZ, you are Infantry...I spent some time working with former Israeli tank commanders and SF commando's, and was dragged into a discussion on into the preference of being with light troops verses Armor. All of the current anti-tank weapons made armored vehicles a big easy target, was the view of the those in favor of Light Infantry, while tanks were reasonably protected from air bursts and heavy to light weapons. As a old paratrooper, C4/23Abn, 172nd LIB, I still side with Light infantry, one hit on a tank can take out several troops and has a signature hard to hide, while a well dispersed dug in force is harder to dislodge. This can go deeper but the basic are unchanged.

For many Russians, one of the most profound unspoken tenets that formed the Soviet system was that human life has no value - except for the lives of the rulers and authorities. "I am nothing" forms a grim legacy inherited from the Soviet Union where multitudes often were repressed, oppressed and sacrificed in whatever manner the leaders deemed appropriate in order to accomplish their goals. It derives not only from that oppressive system, but also from centuries of being subject to autocratic rulers who regularly regarded citizens as property to be used as needed.

Something along the lines of Mongolians who had only recently become civilized. If given a choice between living w nazi Germany or the communist soviets, the Germans were far more civilized. He also stated some disturbing observations of the holocaust victims. Implying they were agents of KGB sent to divide German politics and put stress on cultural norms. After blowing the whistle and advocating to finish the war back then, when it was easily winnable, and that waiting made Us weaker and soviets stronger After being called crazy, he wrote to his wife that he wouldnt push the issue any further seeing the semetic influence in our media even back then, he said he would silently bide his time until he could destroy them entirely.

Few soldiers on a losing side will not avoid being a casualty over time.

During the fifth month of a full-scale war in Ukraine, a huge amount of evidence has accumulated that Russia does not just intend to occupy our country, it is deliberately perpetrating the genocide of Ukrainians. In my opinion, international partners should open their eyes as wide as possible and understand that they are supporting Ukraine not in the war for its independence and freedom, but for survival. And survival depends on the effectiveness of the use of weapons against Russia on its own territory. After all, the shopping center in Kremenchug was destroyed by an X-22 missile fired by a strategic missile-carrying bomber from Russian airspace. The destruction of infrastructure facilities of the Russian army on the territory of Russia should become a priority, and Ukraine's international partners should recognize this. Warehouses, military units, airfields, repair plants, etc. An ATACMS tactical missile strike at the airfield in Shaikovka would have avoided the tragedy in Kremenchug. But our partners have so far denied us both the provision of tactical missiles for the M270 / M142, and do not welcome strikes on the territory of the Russian Federation. In fact, thus becoming silent accomplices of genocide. Observers of the deaths of Ukrainians... every day. Attacks on military targets of the Russian army on the territory of Russia and Belarus (if necessary) must be supported not only at the geopolitical level, but also technically - by providing the necessary weapons.☂️☂️☔️☔️

Those surviving troops that committed mass executions of civilians around Kiev were pulled back, rearmed and sent back in. If fortune smiles on the Generals, those boys will die so that none can reveal their orders to kill civilians. If they survive to win then their war crimes will be seen as necessary to assure victory. The Generals win either way. The soldiers lose, the civilians lose.

It is an interesting perspective knowing full well the human tragedy underway in Ukraine and the losses on both sides. The story of the 331st is echoed and horribly amplified in every town in Ukraine and mirrored with every unit on both sides.

In a way, it’s much like how we remember past wars and the sadness of it all, and this is the tone they have achieved here again.

Is nothing credible except for Russian state media? Regardless of how much evidence is thrown in your face?

Correct. I found the report good also. There are poor boys dying on both sides. For what? Destruction? Terrified people? Think of their poor mothers and their children of these Russian and Ukrainian dead soldiers. Sensible people should do all they can to stop this. A Peace Agreement is best. It is the only sensible way forward.
None of these men would have experienced hardship had they just stayed home.

Eh? Refusing to serve would likely land them with a similar fate.

They're contracted soldiers, not conscripts. They can't refuse the deployment by claiming that legally it's not a war. Even then the Russian government would pressure you or make the society ostracize you if you did that.
I love this.
right after the minute mark why did that guy go down ? did he get shot ?

Excellent reporting, again, from Mark Urban and the Newsnight team.
Not included as casualties are those melted everytime a tank turret loaded with ammo is hit by javelin.
this is where journalism begins ... congratulation.
My heart goes out to the families on both sides of the conflict. I've served in Afghanistan and Iraq, it's something only veterans and their families understand.

A big reason why the Russian Airborne Forces or VDV have gotten chewed up in Ukraine is because they have often been misused as mechanized infantry, a task in which the VDV's thin-armored BMDs and under-sized infantry units are poorly suited for.

Alas, The Russians would hardly be the first to misuse airborne troops as straight infantry (Montgomery may have been the "innovator" here, but Ike allowed it). But it's understandable, if not ideal. If you have all these (presumably well trained and motivated) guys hanging around that can carry a rifle like anyone and no suitable airborne op on the table, they are going to get used...

@@thegobbledygooker731 The real blame for the Arnhem Debacle lies with the Para Corps GOC LT/Gen R Browning he knew very well that Airborne Light Infantry must be supported by heavy infantry and tanks within 48hrs pref 24hrs and he knew that two SS Armoured Regiments were located in the Area,also against all orders a Gliderborne Bn Major took his complete set of plans which were found on his body so within 3hrs of landing German HQ were in the know.Allied Tanks were not upto the job and were easy prey for the ambush tactic's and finally Cornelius Ryan was correct IT WAS A BRIDGE TOO FAR in effect it was an over ambitious plan.
More names to add to the list; 200 additional Russian paratroopers were killed in a HIMARS strike 4 days ago. Like fish in a barrel.
There's a mistake in the reporting. First tank 3:339 ; then the tank on the train is 3:331 ; that is a different tank, not?
