————
The real question is does the Ukrainian citizenry want street combat in Kiev? Judging by the clogged highways moving out of Ukraine, I think not.

Are there 10,000 Ukrainians willing to die for their country?

If Ukrainians are up to it they could turn this into Afghanistan 2.0 for the Russians in the long run. But do they have the will ?

Report was current this morning - 10,000 guns is a drop in the bucket against 150,000 plus air, artillery etc. Veteran Russian units are likely not even deployed yet.

No they don’t want that. They want to topple the government and install a puppet regime, who can then begin to placate and pacify the populace. Resistance will be strong but more likely out in the countryside rather than in large modern cities like Kiev. Nobody wants another Beirut.

“Report: Ukraine Claims to Have Distributed 10,000 Automatic Rifles Since Russian Invasion”

In New York they’d be taking them away.

Ukrainians will go guerilla on them, with IEDs, ambushes, assassinations, etc. It will be worse than what Russia suffered in Afghanistan. This will take on the elements of a civil war, which is the most brutal, most unforgiving, most cruel type of fight there is.

They will drop a Russian daisy cutter on the city.

And the west will stare with their jaws dropping.

Kiev and the north has always been the diversion to divert resources west.
