A Guerrilla War is Being Waged by Ukraine. Here is the Latest: The below list of resistance incidents is almost certainly incomplete. The Ukrainian armed forces have been extremely active in September, having launched counteroffensive operations in Kherson and Kharkiv provinces. Multiple explosions have taken place every day; and there is no doubt that partisans are involved in some, or all, of these activities. For the sake of accuracy, however, I’ve only listed those incidents for which partisans were expressly given credit or for which the armed forces were not.
These caveats notwithstanding, it’s important to note that resistance has shifted almost entirely from non-violent actions to violent actions. In September, there were four non-violent resistance incidents, nine attacks on property, and 25 attacks on collaborators or Russians.

“Partisan warfare making life difficult for the Russians in the so-called “annexed” territories.”
Sooner or later, Russia will lose the “occupation.”
No doubt they will. What’s kind of amazing is how the Ukrainians, with some newer weapons and improved training, have proven to be the superior fighting force. They are better soldiers, with better tactics and certainly vastly more motivated than the invaders, some of whom were led to believe they were in an exercise.
That's because their regular army has pretty much been annihilated, isn't it?
As far as losing occupations, that's pretty much what has just happened to the hee-haws and hohos, isn't it?
Absolutely.
“That’s because their regular army has pretty much been annihilated, isn’t it?”
In your dreams, Ivan.

There is no reason to think that the resistance will wane anytime in the near future. Quite the contrary, it is sure to grow and become even more violent—especially if the Ukrainian armed forces continue to press the Russians in the south and keep them from advancing in the east.
There was partisan warfare into the 50’s against the old USSR.
The most damaging thing the partisans do to the Russians is relay geo locations of Russian ammo depots, troop concentrations, barracks, etc to the HIMARS precision rockets which given an precise Geo location can hit with 6 feet of the target.
“The night is dark and full of HIMARS”
““That’s because their regular army has pretty much been annihilated, isn’t it?”
Guess it was the partisans and not the annihilated UKR reg army that drove the Russian army back from the Kharkiv area and now “an estimated from 2 to 5 thousand RU troops, plus their armor, artillery & vehicles, are now encircled at Lyman.”

Russian column fleeing Lyman destroyed by UKR artillery:
” video of a RU column, neutralized by UKR artillery as it attempted to flee the encirclement at Lyman. Scattered about are RU bodies, vehicles & the things they looted from the city. RU’s defeat at Lyman is biblical.”

Here is hope for the Russian shills on FR.
Putins draft is bring elite Russian troops into the war. Video shows them enroute. Unfortunately the bus driver must have been drinking too much vodka and lost control of the bus.

Those are awesome Twitter videos! Keep them coming, Lonny! The Putinistas will be apopletic!!!
Whoops!! 🤣🤣🤣
Remember the old Cold War myth that Russian soldiers are 10 feet tall? Turns out, they’re nothing but a gaggle of drunken midgets.
Those are Ukrainian troops.
No.. they weren’t. The ones in military uniforms have that distinctive striped Russian mariner T-shirt showing.
“Guess it was the partisans and not the annihilated UKR reg army that drove the Russian army back from the Kharkiv area and now “an estimated from 2 to 5 thousand RU troops, plus their armor, artillery & vehicles, are now encircled at Lyman.”
Yeah, ganeemead would have us believe that, with his comment that the Ukrainian army “...has pretty much been annihilated.”
The reality, of course, is different.
Ukrainian troops are wearing the same uniforms.
If fact, a big complication in this conflict is that soldiers aren't always sure who the enemy is. They wear the same clothes, shoot the same guns, drive the same tanks, and speak the same language.
Kinda like a civil war.
