The Tigray region is no longer in a state of war. There was a peace deal brokered by the U.S., AU and South Africa. The current conflict involves the Ethiopian federal government and the Amhara region. In addition to the long standing low scale guerilla war that has been waged by the Oromo ethnic group.

[@TheStaffmaster]

Still the best coverage of this conflict on KZbin, or anywhere really.

@@CanadianWolverine I also watch Denys Davynov and the daily/bi daily nature makes it far to easy to run afoul of the rumor mill, (Denys dose a fairly good job ensuring veracity, though). The larger picture, step backed, style used here, mixed with the channels' primary focus on historical conflict means that they still remain objective. As for being "pro Ukraine" um, bud, THEY WERE ILLEGALLY INVADED, WERE EXPECTED TO FAIL, and yet not only have they clowned on the supposed "Second best military in the world," they have done so with basically a hand tied behind their back, as the West's condition for all this aid is that they keep the conflict confined to their sovereign borders. Ukraine, by the conventions of war, is technically allowed to stage retaliatory attacks against Russia, and not run afoul of the Montrose Convention, or the Geneva Convention. The fact that they are STILL winning this thing is making military strategists lose their minds, and made them an instant underdog.

Looking forward to the next episode covering Wagner's attempted coup.

[@aluminiumknight4038]

It's a rebellion but not an attempted coup, a coup would come from the inside and it's way more dangerous than some unruly mercenaries

[@jigsaw1398]

What is the music you used at the end?

[@chadjenkins4876]

Maybe y'all can clear up something for me. I keep hearing sides of the Dnipro referred to as the left or right side. What makes it so? The flow of the river? Why not North and South etc

[@KingsandGenerals]

Because the river has eastern and western sides, too, in some locations. The side is decided by the flow. Think about driving. No matter if north or south or west or east, your right side is always decided according to the direction you are driving.

Painfull to think about all the lives lost, ukraine and russian lives

[@Masterlewger]

So many dreams lost under the horrors of war, so many lives lost and others forever changed

[@makebradengreatagain2091]

I feel bad for both sides too man, some of these people are dumb and or young kids around my age. Lot of em won't have a future, war as the last thing they knew 🙏

[@BIGBLUESTUROCKS]

As I have heard many times, noone Really wins in a war. War is a whole lot of losses for both sides. The Russians and their P.M.Cs and Convict soldiers are just barbaric. Their will be trials and many will be convicted. Putin being one of them. Bring them to justice might be a problem. But for there to be a final peace agreement Russia must hand over ALL War Criminals! Slava Ukrainii!

[@Kwerd]

Russian troops came to kill at will, really, pity them. It is impossible to force a person to fight, you can always find a way out: suicide, as an extreme option, desertion, refuse and go to prison. However, for the Russians, killing Ukrainians is a priority. For the idea of ​​empire, for the idea of ​​money.

I can recommend the in depth analysis of the Austrian Bundesheer. It has English videos that explain the tactics and strategies on battlefield. Their analysis aren't just a military blog videos like this series, which only cover the evens of the war

Id say they are the 3rd or 4th best army the foreign legion on the side of the ukraine and so on are also better

[@ElvenMetalhead]

Glad that K&G's updates on this war is now only 2 weeks behind! Most comprehensive videos on this topic out there. I even saw some SM users sharing these videos to shut pro-Russian bots up from spreading misinformation. Keep up the excellent work you guys!

[@sarahjackson1860]

The “counter offensive” began 3wks ago. Everyone knows that.

[@enigmagrieshaber5555]

We are living through a history

[@istvansipos9940]

I see sponsors at the very end of some videos. If that's still an option, that could help you a lot. I am sure we all (kinda all) would just mute the video and let several ads happen. Without telling the sponsor, of course.

[@istvansipos9940]

oh. O.K. ads there at the end.

"Nobody likes sponsors cutting into the video" Yeah you're right about thtat. *Watches with adblock, skips sponsors anyways*

Great pick of BGM It just amplify the epicness

[@killrsloth9187]

It's a double edge sword RN if they move to quick the risk heavy casualties that they honestly can't afford. On the other hand move to slowly and risk losing western support due to a slowly growing dissent in the west. Let's hope the can thread the needle

[@joduh4665]

Just my own perspective here from Germany: it feels the ones loosing interest here are the pro russia & anti war protesters. the former probably because there are embarrassingly few of them, the latter because the awful atrocities russia does nonstop (bombing civilians). The support for Ukraine short AND long term i feel is increasing if anything. (again i dont own poling stations, just what i notice here locally:)

@@CharlesYuditskynah US will help to the very end idk about others

[@bluthammer1442]

there are some super graphic videos that show the reason why its going so slow. ALmost every area where the ukranians dismount is mined. The one vid i saw, 22 minutes long, resulted in 6 amputees. This grind is going to take a while and i do not think that a military victory for either side is on the table at all.

[@martinjrgensen8234]

I think it will be a deadlock for many years.

[@chad_8313]

With the counter-offensive being a total failure thus far, do you think Ukraine's best options would be to cede territory for peace? We're several weeks in and Ukraine has barely inched forward on any front, while losing 24+ Bradleys in the opening days. Pretty damn embarassing.

[@Joaquin546]

Oh poor sod they say this exact cope every time Russia is about to lose a ton of ground! 😂

[@soloar2007]

why would strong, powerful, clearly-winning-the-war Russia negotiate for peace? Why not just take Kyiv? Imagine invading a country drastically smaller than you and 16 months later your 10- day operation is still unsuccessful? Hugely damn embarrassing.

That's ruins of Volnovakha - the town's been completely destroyed early in the war.
