A bit of mistranslation here. The actual quote is "We have defeated the professional Russian army, it is time to end the amateur one."

[@flackstar007]

@@danny_the_soulkatcher But luckily the end result of the comment is the same that Ukraine will not go easy just because Russia is now sending out it's green recruits. I do see some hardships for Ukraine as a surge in amateur soldiers comes with a risk of a sudden increase in war crimes against the Ukrainian population under Russian control. Russian professional soldiers may not be much better but training comes with a degree of discipline (even as low as they are for Russian soldiers) that the new recruits won't have, and added to this the new recruits will likely be eager to take out their frustrations/fear on anyone who is at their mercy. May Ukraine turn the tables and crush Russia's invasion decisively.

I dont know. Russia is sending civilians to the fight. Guys which have no business to be on a front. They will die like in a meatgrinder. Its madness

Ukrainian officials have been absolutely savage through the whole thing. In the first days of the invasion one of them got a call from the Russians to negotiate a capitulation and responded with "sure, I'm willing to negotiate Russia's capitulation".

Regarding translation. In Russian and Ukrainian "non-professional" and "amateur" are two very different words, and Zalyzhny used "non-professional"/"unprofessional".

The Ukrainians dragged the reserves of the Russian Federation with information and offensive actions to the south, simulating a large-scale offensive there, but in fact they prepared and delivered the main blow in a completely different direction.

It's called a faint attack. Already in them. The real shocker in this war is the man power and equipment the red army is using considering the rhetoric. Makes you wonder how soft the underbelly of Korea is...

[@harvain731]

Well tbh it was more using Social Media and that Western Media was so focused on the Southern Front around Kherson. It looked like on paper that Ukraine and the West had errored in talking so much about this and that while Ukraine was making gains on the Kherson Front, they were also slowing down in spots, encountering resistance and so on. Russia is just so ineffective that unless they are using Mass Numbers for Troops, Tanks, Artillery and so on they are struggling when encountering any form of organized Ukrainian Units. Ukraine showed how Modern Day Intelligence, use of Propaganda and Social Media can effect the Battlefield as much or even more than the Troops, Guns, Tanks, Artillery and so on being used on the ground especially when fighting against an Enemy who might not have the best Military Structure (for Command, Supply and so on) during prolonged conflicts.

[@LuciusSeptamus]

They are also using Thunder runs. Where one bypasses the main objective and tares into the rear lines. It's classic American tactic. They used it in Afghanistan and Iraq as well. It's great for taking land sucks to secure it long term.

Russians have been making very slow but steady progress near Bakhmut. Ukraine seems to de-prioritize the area, possibly because if Bakhmut falls, it' would create a bulge easy to surround. And the advance is costly to Russians, plus it ties its Wagner troops there

[@taakotuesday]

True or not, the rumor that Putin is in direct control of the military is bad news for them. Obviously if it's true, we can expect his pride to influence the commands to the troops in the future. But even if it's not true, it suggests that Putin himself is being blamed for the military's mistakes, rather than a scapegoat, which might suggest that his support is dwindling.

[@nathjus]

If Putin is in charge of the armed forces they all you have to is look back in history and dictators controlling there army's usually ends in disaster, Hitler and Sadaam just to name a few, history has a way of repeating itself.

[@nicolaszan1845]

To be fair, I think it depends a bit more on what the specific order was. If Putin gave a general "do not retreat, fight!" order it is a lot more excusable, since in Kharkiv a big reason why Russia suffered such a major defeat is that no soldiers even bothered to hold the lines, and just ran away when a breakthrough happened without attempting to contest it. But, if Putin's order was directed specifically at the troops in Lyman. Then yeah, no excuse, it was just a horrible tactical and strategic decision

Clicked so fast that Rusia still thinks it's winning the war. Great video as always, keep it up amazing as always.

[@dillonschroeder985]

Another great video, I'm so glad I found I this channel a while back, its the best coverage of the days of this invasion.

[@petermarsh4993]

Dear Presenter, it was so refreshing to come across your video. Well presented in clear English, excellent graphics and a factual based presentation that reeks of journalistic honesty & integrity. The use of military symbols and reference to real units makes trying to piece this war together much easier. I look forward to future instalments, especially the one where Putin has to admit total failure. Thanks.

[@doubledouble4g379]

Redistributing Russian billions would be HILARIOUS for historic reasons. I can't see the use of nuclear weapons - there are no reasonable targets: -The whole reason for the war is to control Ukraine, it's land and it's resources. Why would they de-value their assumed prize? Not to mention as Ukraine is a BIG grain supplier, partial or total irradiation of the country would affect the availability of food in Russia just as much as everywhere else. -Europe is out as well - those are potential customers for Russian oil and gas. -America? Yeah, no. Nothing to gain and EVERYTHING to lose there. Not to mention given what we've seen of the general state of the Russian military, how many nuclear weapons are REALLY in operable condition?

You all must work so hard to develop your videos not only on a consistent basis but of consistent quality. how big is the team actually? I hope y’all are able to keep up with your schedules without being too demanding of a workload on the members.

Thanks! The team is quite big, so we are doing well

11:00 'The rumours are also swirling that Putin now has direct command of the front, which is historically a very good idea if you want to lose the war...' Spot-on!

[@robandcheryls]

Fantastic update

[@sammatysen]

I started following this channel for your excellent series on Mongol history, never thought then you would provide the best coverage I find on a conflict in my neighbouring country. I can't imagine the amount of work and research that goes into these videos, thank you Kings and Generals team!

[@naitnait00]

Having the unit names visually near/on the NATO counter would be a really cool touch. Makes them far less a mere symbol on the map and more of an actual unit.

[@niross819]

Thank you for uploading every part of the Russo-Ukrainian war! Love your channel and love that series!

[@dylanvogler2165]

After the war, if Ukraine wins, I think it will be know as the (2nd) Ukrainian War of independence (first one failed, maybe it will be renamed.).

[@Myriip]

@@dylanvogler2165 No need for "if", they will win. It also not a war of independence, because they were already indepentent. It will be known as the war that finally got rid of these disgusting terrorists called "russians".

[@dylanvogler2165]

@@Myriip fair enough but it will finally mean that Russia will stop claiming the Ukrainians are Russians and that Ukraine is Russia. Finally left alone by the Moscovites.

Great, high quality video, very effective in explaining what's happening on the terrain. I already have different sources of information about Ukrainian war, but not going to lose any of your future videos!

[@FreeFallingAir]

Great update. Kings and Generals and their sister channels are absolute gold. The mapping was fantastic and I love the battle breakdowns with the names of the battalions and units in action. The amount of work and research that y'all put into each video is greatly appreciated! So glad seeing some of those AZOV and foreign Legion soldiers made it back. SLAVA UKRAINE ✊🇺🇦🇺🇲🇺🇳 EDIT: Also, I too appreciate being able to read the transcript while watching! Worked at a gunshop so my hearing isn't like it used to be. 🤠👂

The Ukrainian generals have clearly studied the generals of old, Patton, Von Manstein, Rokossovsky and Chuikov. The Russians seem to have studied Paulus.

[@Markfr0mCanada]

In a situation which changes as quickly as this, some pauses for post production comments would be appropriate. An example would be when discussing how a Zaporizhzhian counter offensive would place more pressure on the Kerch bridge, a brief pause to explain that the script was written before damage to the Kerch bridge occurred would be acceptable.

[@alucard347]

I'm not sure if they included it here, but I remember some videos in this series where they mentioned when exactly they stopped the writing of the script, so it seems like they sometimes include it. But yes, it did raise a chuckle for me when they mentioned it

[@greghuey6639]

You should include Cruisers and Bridges in the equipment losses tally.

[@Cobalt9685]

[@ElBandito]

We Mongolians welcome young rich Russians fleeing to our country, and their money + know-hows. Our government has already granted them long period of stay.
