Although propaganda is part of warfare.. Ive seen tons of verified videos of destroyed russian tanks, dead russians, and engineering columns destroyed.

Putins attack forces went in and the Ukrainians waited for them to go in, and then they attacked their supply columns.. tons of tanks ran out of gas and soldiers had no food.

I"m surprised at the lack of coverage inside the war zones compared to with Iraq. I guess there are not many Western reporters imbedded with the Ukrainian military like during the Iraq war, neither Fox or CNN is showing such footage of the Ukrainian military actually engaging the Russians.

What if the Russians were to counterattack or launch missiles into Russia and target the staging areas of the troops still on the border?

There are no pictures of dead or gorey photos. Just passports, and photos/videos of captured soldiers.

And sometimes it DOES involve pictures of course.

Like for example the deputy minister of the internal affairs of Ukraine, A. Gerashenko made a post today, that he sent a picture of a dead body to some Russian girl, with inscription "You don't have your dad any longer."

First of all, the most important thing is that when they are called up to the Russian army, their passports are withdrawn from the soldiers and a military ID is issued instead. For the entire duration of the service, this is the document replacing the passport. Secondly, photocopies are especially touching. Usually such photocopies are made in banks when issuing loans. Most likely, they just pulled passport photos from the Internet.
Maybe yes , maybe so.. Im no expert. However, my wife speaks russian and is Lithuanian and we have translated enough of these to know that the initial wave of Russians have taken serious losses and KIA. Many of the attacking force all seem to be freshly trained conscripts to soften up the defenders.

Poor little ukrkoz really, really doesn't want any information about Russian casualties and deaths to get out... except the "information" he makes up himself, of course.

Of course . However , I know the causalities are in the thousands so far .The supply lines were cut off from the initial invasion force . The entire first wave of Russian troops got destroyed . Do you know that defenders in urban warfare usually have odds up to a 6 to 1 advantage over the attackers ? T-72 tanks from 1969 really stand no chance against modern day anti tank weapons .
