The Ukraine war thread

@bachophile interesting indeed. One common theme throughout this entire war has been the utter incompetence of the Russian military. Everything from strategy, tactics to supplies has been a boondoggle.
Is the Russian army really that incompetent?
Reading these threads makes it sound like the Ukrainians are master strategists, but I wonder if these recent successes are simply because the Russians are so bad.
If they are so bad, how did that happen?

Well...Iran will not recognize annexation.
The Spokesperson of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Nasser Kanaani, in response to journalists’ question regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran’s position on holding a referandum in Luhansk, Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions in Ukraine and the annexation of the regions to Russia, emphasized, “The Islamic Republic of Iran, as always and based on its principled positions, emphasizes the necessity of fully observing the principle of territorial integrity of countries as a fundamental rule of international law and respecting the principles and goals of the United Nations Charter.”

Posted the other day about an autonomous robotic armored vehicle the U.S. Army is currently testing. It's a tracked vehicle designed to keep up with and protect armored columns from drones.
Measure/Counter-measure.

I get it that Putin is giving Kadyrov a chance to put up or shut up. Still it shows the Russian public that Putin is scraping the barrel:

On the other hand maybe he’ll be deployed to the front where he will ingloriously die by way of a targeted Ukrainian drone or artillery ordinance. Either way I hope he dies “not well”.
