 drone operators have now begun to drop TM-62 anti tank mines on Russian positions they definitely pack more punch than a grenade.

 >using AT mines as bombs
niggas
those are mines with mine utility and generally working in one direction for antiarmor purposes. they will not drop in a fashion that aids this
they are looking for bombs. we invented these already. we've had them for a while 
 Nah this is uh…..”ingenuity”, just like how it’s a smart move (totally not indicative of dwindling supplies) to use 55 yo guys as draftees 
 Yeah yeah they are Still beating back the big bad nuclear faggot Russia. 
 They haven’t moved though, why can’t you guys JUST cut it out with the cheerleading bullshit? The russkies are hanging out and smoking in the same shit-filled trenches they were a year ago. We aren’t women on twitter, just be realistic, it dishonors their sacrifice to keep up the rah-rah bullshit. 

It’s always rosy nonsense like “Beating them back!” and “slaughtering hundreds of ZIGGERS in (village that’s more like an intersection)”, instead of being honest about those boys’ suffering and sacrifice. Among men it’s not demoralizing, it’s respectful. Women need the lies as if every day is a fresh victory - we do not.

There’s no shame in not making huge progress against an entrenched enemy when you’re bereft of everything you’d need to blow their lines wide open. Your team is showing a tremendous, dogged amount of grit, and no matter what my misgivings are about its place in history, it’s still impressive to see them keep on pressing. 

Honor isn’t found only in victory. 
 They have always had "dwindling supplies" that is why they asked for weapons because ya know Russia is the biggest country on earth with biggest army 
 Mine kills people. They figured out how to kill people differently. Everyone critical of it just hates everything Ukranians ever do because America supports them and that must mean Ukraine=bad. But same person will be amazed at some crusty Afghan who fits a fire extinguisher to an Rpg7.
