So far they don't really need to. There hasn't been any serious resistance. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
How ya doing there Chief? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Ouch at being impaled in the shoulder. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
The first McDonald’s restaurant in Ukraine was opened on May 24, 1997 in Kyiv. As reported, McDonald’s began to open restaurants in Ukraine in stages on September 20, 2022. Until February 24 of the same year, the chain had 109 restaurants in 24 cities of the country. As of March 2024, 101 outlets are operating. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
If you have an enemy that is content to sit behind its defenses and has no meaningful way of being a threat offensively, you put a small blocking force and move on. Either that enemy will surrender if they are short on food, or they will be happy to just sit there if they have enough food water etc. No one wants to die if they can avoid it. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Well, looks like Ukraine hasn't slowed down. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
You’re not wrong….but taking a page out of Belorus’ book and assembling troops at the borders of these places would definitely help Ukraine by further stretching Russian Forces’ manpower. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

It's crazy how good Russia is at clamping down on social media in these areas. Pretty much nothing from Russian civilians making it to reddit after the first day of the attack. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
What is that second smaller part? Looks like it could be a mistake based on similar town names or something? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
McDonald’s is so much better outside the U.S. Still not amazing, but edible and clean. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
I follow a few tg channels which are quite good (in Ukrainian), but nothing as good and reliable as NOEL.
So I think that would be a good occasion for people here to list alternative high-quality sources, IMO. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Bummer. Looks like he might still do a little bit of updates
He deserves a break and his team (if it’s a team), they’ve been honestly providing quality information for as long as I can remember all day every day | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Let's not deny that some cope in here also discount russian advances in the south by comparing gains vs total landmass.
Of course, the difference is that Russians have been made to believe that they are untouchable and invincible. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Note that those 720 km² aren't controlled by UA. Only a small part is. It's the area where some Ukrainian units seem to have been observed. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

"...and you know what? Russian offensive is even smaller." | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Until now, there's never been Russian non-combatants fleeing to Moscow and sharing the truth. They probably realize that lying in this moment only exposes that they're liars and erodes trust in the propaganda. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
I really appreciate that they post updates to threads and mastodon as well. Can still follow them without needing to have an account on twitter. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
I like the moments when Russians have to cross the line between usual lies and eventually facing hard truths. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

Somewhere on the way to Moscow Russian logistics will be disrupted so much they won't be able to attack in Ukraine and defend in Russia at the same time. That's where the new frontline will occur. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
So has Ukraine gained more territory in a week than Russia has in a year after the Kursk incursion?
Lmao | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Depends. There's no clear frontline yet. Confusion and fog of war. Back and forth on hourly basis. OSINT are scrambling to assess, but it's sort of speculation about the firmly held land. We'll see, but currently it looks like what russia took in the last 6 months. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

He is not invading, he just wants home. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
I think it was NOELReports that reported it, too. I find them trustworthy. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
I'm sure there are people who understand Putin's thought process much more than any of us, but if i had to speculate, i'd say that his paranoia is kinda helping Ukraine here. He's not sure that russia is psychologically ready for total mobilization, that they are prepared to to suffer the deaths of their young and not rebel against the war, as well as against him. Which, i believe, is a mistake. They are ready, propaganda made sure of it. They are as dormant and as submissive as ever. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Same as always, eroding Russia's ability to prosecute the war. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Because they are OUT OF SHIT. AFU in Kursk is not some kind of strategic Russian retreat. The only remaining massive reserves RU has are at the wrong place, at the wrong time, so they, so far, have nothing to respond with. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

To win the war | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
It was stated many times that current covert mobilization rates are already a stretch for russian militaries (30k/month). They simply can not afford more people flow without literally breaking this system, it has not improved much. Add to this problems with training, equipping and the fact lies and suppression will not work anymore on new recruits (in the same way they work on migrants) - and it\`s quite clear that real mobilization will turn into full-blown disaster in several weeks after start )) z-pidorz are literally fucked with all the mess they produced, imho | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Also Russia's north Kharkiv incursion feels so small now | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Ok that is a bit of a broad answer
I’m more wondering do they want to trade land for land/assets/ people
Is it just a longer raid to fuck shit up and they will retreat back to safety later
Maybe it’s a faint so Russia pulls resources there and leaves weaknesses in the line they care about.
It just feels weird to me expanding the playing field when you have the numerical disadvantage
I also don’t know anything so there is that too | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

Aside from strategical implications, moving the front into Russia has also the practical consequence of protecting the Ukrainians living in Sumy Oblast, Russia has constantly shelled the border villages and recently started using glide bombs there too.
The Russians aren't the only ones evacuating:
>As many as 19,800 civilians, including 2000 children, have been evacuated from Sumy Oblast.
> "As of today 19,800 people, including 2000 children, have been evacuated…About 3800 persons, including 175 children, have been evacuated from 23 settlements where the evacuation was announced on 6 August…
>Understanding the importance of protecting the civilians, we announced the evacuation for a five-kilometre area in 115 settlements in Sumy Oblast a year ago. It is ongoing today. Moreover, we announced a mandatory and forcible evacuation in the communities where the situation is the most dangerous.

Reminds me of the few days before the war. Putin had a security meeting where each if his ministers and advisors took to a podium to basically tell him that they should invade and they had no choice. Then you had this one advisor who went out and completely jumped the shark starting to talk about including Donetsk and Luhansk into the Russian Constitution. And you could see Putin basically facepalm so hard because the guy just revealed exactly their plan. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Notice the hand gesture by the Kursk governor when he gets reprimanded. It's like he's going 'dude, it's written here in this paper you guys gave me to read to you'. Maybe wishful thinking, but it clearly is an annoyed gesture at what he was given to read. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

Using a nuke triggers the Team America Experience for Putin and friends. They know this, they know Ukraine isnt going to storm Moscow Either.

A Russian soldier captured by Ukraine recorded himself looting an abandoned house in the Kursk region. The video was reportedly retrieved from his mobile phone. It potentially corroborates reports of widespread looting from their own civilians by the Russian military.

It’s harder to fish with a line than it is with a trawler, but you harm fewer innocent lives.
It’s been eight months into a freshly renewed round of fighting, of a 80 year war, that one side has been trying to stop fighting for 50 non consecutive years. “What’s taking so long” is the most special of takes. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
Yes, the IDF is only partly in Gaza. The IDF is small. It can only operate in very large numbers by calling up hundreds of thousands working-age people (out of like 6 million) for an extended period. This is ruinous to Israel's economy and not sustainable socially. It is what happened in the beginning first few months during the most intense fighting, but after that it was just not sustainable. This is made worse by the fact that Hezbollah is a much greater danger to Israel, leading to many of those soldiers not being in Gaza, but in the North. Lastly, Gaza is a very densely populated area with a lot of deeply-dug infrastructure by Hamas, making progress simply quite slow.
So the situation is that Israel simply does not have the number of soldiers to occupy all parts of Gaza to be able to prevent Hamas from still being present and rebuilding.
As a consequence, the fighting is simply far less intense than before. As an example, at the end of December 30k overall deaths were recorded, and now close to the Middle of August, we are around 40k overall deaths. Far less Israelis are deployed in the Gaza Strip, there are fewer bombings, and the overall war is just much less intense.
It is also why traditionally Israeli doctrine calls for short, extremely intense wars because it knows that as a country it cannot handle mass deployment for a long time period. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

Special? I simply do not know specifics and was asking for them. U.s. invasion of Iraq took a little over a month. I was using a comparison of asymmetrical warfare that I knew, and IDF vs hamas seemed to match up similarly.

That there are going to be another round. And another. And another. (At least, until Israel doesn't show up. Then that round was the "last chance" and it was Israel's fault for not attending.) | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |

While I wish this was true, it isn’t that clean cut as of yet. This is from an Israeli source; one that also sends out warnings to Israeli citizens on texting apps regarding attacks and has frequently sent out info before it hits the news as it has to be quick to send out warning. I’ve taken it directly from that source.
“The Iranians have sent mixed signals regarding an impending attack. However, their true intentions appear to be a massive, coordinated assault on Israel using their terrorist proxies, aiming to cause maximum damage.
While the exact timing of the attack remains uncertain, initial rumors and assessments suggest that it might commence around Tisha B’Av. This period, from Monday evening to Tuesday evening, now seems symbolically and logically significant.” | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-12-08 |
