Russian artillery fire is down as much as 75% from the wartime high, according to US and Ukrainian officials. It may be a sign of how the prolonged and brutal battle has had a significant effect on Russia's stockpile and they may be regrouping to try to pinpoint where Ukraine is going to launch its next major offensive. CNN's Oren Liebermann and Jim Sciutto discuss what's happening on both sides of the conflict. #CNN #News

@Sam Hull you might think, and they might think that, but no, these are Christian in name only.
And this type of killing of “Christian on Christian” is almost as old as Chritianity, and not unique to “Christians”
But, truly if this what you believe then it’s clear you do not know the Gospel and is like a preschooler trying to teach Carl Sagan about astronomy.
Nowhere in the Gospel, nor the rest of the Word, is fraterside ever been OK. Spread your lies and hatred somewhere else
@Sam Hull “But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.”
— 2 Timothy 2:23 (KJV)
@Sam Hull There is no proof.

well, russia ordered stockpiles moved out of HIMARS range several months ago; but, that is 100km away from the frontline. So, they have to hand load and unload trucks, and drive them to the frontline. If you separate the guns from the ammunition by 100 km, yep, you are going have a hard time sustaining your rate of fire. oddly, that ammunition behind the frontline blows-up just fine by itself. 😆 🤣 😂
In Velikaya Novoselka, the Russians attacked immediately after destroying the Ukrainian attack. The Ukrainian didn’t even get to see what hit them and the Russians were already in their trenches. On Russian maps, the gray area has grown considerably around this locality. That area will soon be under total Russian control. At least that’s what the reports from the front show. Undoubtedly, the Ukrainians were pushed to the second line of defense. About Bahkmut… A correspondence between several leaders of the Mozart group and a journalist, published in the Daily Telegraph it shows us the complete picture of a Ukrainian disaster. The Americans said that the losses of the Ukrainians exceed 70%, and this is no Russian exaggeration. This is what they saw every day while they stayed in that area. Estimate, in numbers by the Americans, is about 10,000 Ukrainian soldiers lost so far in Bahkmut..In order to keep the tragedy there hidden, the Kiev regime did not officially give any accreditation to any journalist to have war correspondence. But they had no way to force the Americans not to speak. On the other hand, Ukrainian media channels started to show images, posted by those who fight or live in the area, with piles of corpses in buildings turned into morgues. In other videos, dozens of refrigerated trucks are shown transporting the bodies to other localities to be buried or to identify the victims. Unfortunately for them, it is confirmed once again that the Russians do their job professionally…In a short video material with a doctor from a hospital it is very clearly said that 80% of Ukrainian soldiers are victims of artillery and aerial bombs. These small details bring to the fore again, the eternal dilemma of the Russian losses compared to the Ukrainian losses.. The conclusion is one and clear… they cannot be compared, the losses of the Russians are too small to be compared. Somehow logical, if 8000 Ukrainian victims did not even get to see the Russian soldiers and were already dead. But let’s move on to happier things.. Today, TOS – A1 appeared again on the scene, apparently in the front area of Liman.. You can’t imagine the pleasure of some Ukrainian soldiers who tanned with their clothes on…. Other good news will come from the Kupyansk – Liman front .. In the following days a summary of today’s battles will be posted and as the first reports show, the Ukrainians have significant losses there as well… Will be this a small reward for the terror that the Ukrainians inflict every day on the civilians in the cities? We don’t know the clear answer yet, but there are signs this is not what the Russians mean when they say those criminals will not escape unpunished….
@Bengt Björck You’re the type of person who believed in the ghost of kiev
@Riverside Garden Radio We are in month 11 and Russia lost ground from their peak.
It is what it is . If Russia count beat Ukraine they should have done it by now.
Iraq fell in 4 weeks and it was not next door like Mexico.
Bottom line… we’re winning against the Kremlin trash! I’m 9, upside down, inside out, and one minute ahead of time. d 6 IM MI6 + 1 minute… ‘time theory… We’re able to fold space and time back upon itself up to one minute out, and therefore, no Russian nuclear ICBM would land on the U.S., U.K, or Canada…. so these Kremlin scum have exhausted their military resources attempting to take Kiev… taking nothing… being decimated… and retreating… with the worthless FSB stating ‘3 days to Kiev’… Bottom line… We’re winning! We’ll just fight world world 3 over Youtube!
@Riverside Garden Radio zero HIMARS have been destroyed. Sorry loser ruski
20,000 rounds per day is 6,000,000 in 10 months. That’s got to have eaten into the old Soviet-era ammunition stockpile. Not only that, 30-year old fuses have a high failure rate, possibly as high as 70%. All artillery barrels have a limited lifetime and need to be re-lined after firing a certain number of shells, which is a problem for the Russians as (I have been told) the 2014 sanctions included the kind of specialist steel alloys needed to construct artillery barrels and liners. If the barrel isn’t re-lined then accuracy gradually degrades, leading to a vicious circle of needing more shells to hit a given target, which increases barrel wear – rinse and repeat. Plus the likelihood of a catastrophic barrel or breech failure increases, which will likely kill all the gunners. The Ukrainians have not only been HIMARSing Russian ammunition dumps (over 50 last time I checked), they’ve been capturing them when the Russians retreat.
@justme ! no one cares what you think just because you’re Canadian snowflake
@Sam Hull I’m pretty sure NATO won’t indict, condemn, and hang all of Russia for crimes against humanity
Russia’s pit of misery is not a bottomless one..
it’s really a pity, because Russia has given a lot to the world.
@Riverside Garden Radio And not a video or source to show your proof. Just words boy…sit!
@Boris Doris lol, I know..so damn funny😂😂😂😂😂
The alarming part is that these aging munitions being used by both sides are going to ultimately produce duds in towns and fields, left for another generation to find.
Stop to war, to wars in the world.
Ukrainian has said a couple of months ago that the Nato barrels were wearing out. The Russians have just kept on firing, I wonder if at last the Russians are realising their barrels are worn out, especially as there have been many Russian soldier’s complaining about that their own artillery keeps hitting them. I think it is a mixture of bad communication plus worn barrels but hay, I am no expert, I only fired 7.62mm rounds and have no experience of anything bigger, thank goodness.
Yes, Ukraine is rotating barrels and have them relined, I think in Poland mostly. It is not unlikely this becomes achoke point for russia considering how they use their artillery, not for precision strikes on target but to cover areas.
Maybe we will just give this country up to the Chinese while they watch and sit idle buying up our land????
@Bengt Björck I believe you’re right, Poland has been refurbishing and repairing a lot of Ukrainian weapons.
If your guns are accurate at first then slightly less so after a few months you will notice it. If you’re guns are inaccurate at first and marginally more inaccurate after a few months then maybe harder to see the difference. Perhaps that’s the difference between western and “Soviet” artillery?

It was only a matter of time before Russia started running low on ammo
Number of artillery attacks goes down and the number of Russian casualties goes up
We just over a week in to the new year and it has already been a really bad year for Russia
@jensramputh The largest nation on earth with untold resources and major weapons producer, with three shifts working nonstop in countless factories to defend their country. The West should realize and come to terms with that. The West is not the only country dedicated to its cause…
“We just over a week in to the new year and it has already been a really bad year for Russia” i dont know about that. they have actually captured some ground this month surprisingly. soledar fell today.
You are wrong Russia just took Bakhmut and Solidar which was a huge bonanza for the Russians and a tremendous bloodbath for the Ukrainians.Solidar was the main logistical hub for the defense of southern Ukraine.

Honorable Magisterial District Judge David H. Lang,
I plead guilty to driving on roadways laned for traffic and have sent a check in the amount of $155.10 to pay my fine and make restitution.
Driving on roadways laned for traffic definition: A vehicle shall be driven as nearly as practicable entirely within a single lane and shall not be moved from such lane until the driver has first ascertained that such movement can be made with safety.
Please note that it was not my intent to commit this traffic violation, and upon attempting to merge onto 476 south with ample clearance, I was cut off by a van which forced me into the shoulder lane. At this point, I didn’t have many good options, as I noticed in my rear-view mirror, oncoming traffic was up against the van’s rear. In attempting to compensate by accelerating ahead to merge, the driver in the van sped up again to prevent me from merging, which led to me veering too far into the left lane when I was finally able to get into traffic. Subsequently, steering myself back into the right lane I started to tail out into the shoulder, and then accidentally spun out causing a car accident.
My only concern after the accident was the other driver’s safety and well-being. Racing over to Timothy in his jeep, I asked, “Are you okay?” He said, “I think so, but I don’t know.” I told him, “Paramedics would be here shortly.” In speaking with the paramedics, I was glad to see that Timothy was responding okay, was able to get himself up out of his jeep without assistance and walk himself onto the stretcher. I’m praying Timothy is okay and that he makes a full recovery.
I spoke with Bob from New Jersey, who originally contacted 911, and who observed the entire accident. He stated that, “He saw the guy in the van cut me off, forcing me into the shoulder lane,” saying, “I saw what you saw,” which resulted in me eventually tailing out after attempting to merge ahead. I asked Bob if I could have permission to use his name when speaking with police and he granted me permission to do so. In speaking with state police officer Michael Lennox, and describing what had happened, I explained that I spoke with Bob from New Jersey who had originally contacted 911 and requested that officer Michael Lennox contact him to corroborate what had happened.
Respectfully,
Eric Wilson
Dear Carol T.,
We spoke this afternoon today on 12/22/2022. I called to make it clear that I had plead guilty to driving on roadways laned for traffic and to accept my $155.10 as payment for my fine and to make restitution for this traffic violation. You stated that, “You received the guilty plea, but that after reading my note, you believed I had a good case, and were trying to save me money.” While I appreciate your sentiment, and it was not my intent to violate this traffic law, I plead guilty to driving on roadways laned for traffic. As far as the note that you were referencing, while I was guilty of making this mistake, I was explaining the circumstances surrounding the ticket, and that it was not my intent to break this rule. Please accept my guilty plea and my payment of $155.10 and cancel the hearing scheduled for 2/24/2023 scheduled for 8:30am. Thank you for your time.
Respectfully,
Eric Wilson

It’s mating season and this alien God is trying to have a baby… go watch terminator! – and that requires a lifetime of provisions and protection as well as human financial capital resources and helping these organism develop the necessary physical mental social spiritual skills sets as well as necessary knowledge skill execution and habits to flourish… furthermore… there is no substitute for experience… and throughout the maturity continuum they must develop from independent creatures to interdependence…. Be proactive put first things first begin with the end in mind seek win win win/lose no deal seek first to understand then to be understood synergy sharpen the saw… and balance between production and production capabilites… and working within one’s circle of influence….principle centered living…..

An unbiased observation of the Russian Ukraine war, it is a hostile environment for any military vehicle. Thousands of anti tanks litter everywhere coupled with drones such that you can’t even hide men how much more tanks.
if our western governments cave in and abandon Ukraine, that would get me out on the street with deep anger. this is an existential threat to western democracy (not just Ukraine) and to abandon the Ukrainian people who are seeking the same freedoms we take for granted, would be incredibly selfish and to betray everything my father’s generation fought for in WW2.
Oh my God, I don’t know where to start. Your grandfather definitely did not fight to have the streets and main avenues named after Nazi collaborators and sympathizers in the heart of Ukraine.
Wahaa haa haa haa haa 😄😆😂.! Media update: Soledar has just fallen in the past 8 hour🤔to the; Wagner group.. With over 400 ookrainian regime troops encircled 🤔😳 Support for Russia from New Zealand 🇷🇺🇳🇿
@Kenzi Conte or if they don’t try to police the world and push for the war in the first place
Send all the US soldiers to Ukraine with all the Western gear. Again the Weeping Nazi Zelensky and Biden will ask money from the people of the globe to fill their lust to destroy the world and the peace.
Russian immunity is more significant than any western allies as Russia is fighting against all the Western Colonists and the supporters of Nazism along with their technologies and economic powers. This is for Russian existence. If Russia fails, all the developing economies will be colonized by Western allies.
@Illuminato the great So Russia can eat up more lands from free countried? NATO will never cease.
Need GLSDB 150km Atacms 30pkm so can hit even deeper thus smash the logistics even more
The world has seen more of Putin on TV than their fighter jets…
Sadly, the real question is when will they run out of body’s to send to the front lines.
Russians will mobilise then remobilise, just sending men to their deaths with an antique Mosin Nagant. It will only stop after a revolution removes Putin and all his cronies. Get ready for a million Russian deaths.

Or when are going to stop buying western propaganda lol.
@Foo Bar you’re obviously not following the current affairs, look at the footage of the soldiers graves in Ukraine. Russia has a tremendous amount of factories to produce their own arms, as well as energy and raw materials.
@Sergei Z I can’t understand how people still swallowing the western intelligent , Russia has been running low on ammunition for months now
It might have something to do with the loss of that gazprom Pipeline And the loss of income from sanctions.
But Russian businessmen throwing themselves out of windows is way up. That’s a positive for them.
I sincerely hope this is a case of Putin’s forces simply running out of ammo, but it could also be a sign that they’re stockpiling ammo for a summer offensive, perhaps from Belarus. May it be the former, and not the latter. Slava Ukraini!
Retreating from a city that you’ve fortified for years to avoid mass surrender but still claiming the enemy corpses are scattered there, then why are you leaving the city? it seems anytime they see a defeat they have to find a reason why they were defeated so as to keep the morale calm
Yep and many people buy it lol even the narrative ukraine is winning but the desperation for more weapons don’t make sense. Lol
“Ready! Fire! Aim!”
-Russian Military Theory
The airborne TOW achieved a 90 percent reliability rating for the entire period it was deployed in Vietnam. The system’s deadly accuracy proved to be unstoppable even out to its maximum effective range and under degraded visibility conditions. TOW was real powerful hitting because you could tell as soon as it hit, the vehicle was dead. TOW missiles were able to kill targets while the Bradley was on the move.

I pray for the poor souls caught in the middle on both sides of this conflict and pray it ends soon. There’s been enough blood shed in the last decade for 100s more to come. It’s sad to see the world in turmoil when it seemed so peaceful 7 yrs ago 😔
