The Russians have many enemies, Kazakhstan now has security backing from China and it shows, this along with the Russian defeats and weakness shown in Ukraine has emboldened many, especially those who were under their thumb. Xi gave them security assurances earlier in the war, once they both saw the state of the Russian military, it was the first serious international move made by China in this war. If you look at a map you can understand why, especially considering how much oil and gas they have. They will end up a lot richer and Russia will have another powerful neighbor to their south along with Ukraine. It along with China can connect Siberia and the Asian Russian republics with the world, if they should declare independence. If Russia wants to keep fucking around with imperial games trying to separate the Russian speaking areas in the north, then they will target those republics in Siberia and the east and encourage them to break away from Russia. Better to keep them fighting to keep the empire together than to have them focused on getting them to be part of it again. The Muslim republics populations are growing fast and the Russians are facing a demographic time bomb with population decline and the war in Ukraine made it much worse.

These pack a big punch, move fast, but are not particularly stealthy, though with western electronics upgrades they could do some damage and apparently are. Dunno if they hit those Wagner's and Chechens with it, but it killed a lot of the fuckers in one go and made one Helluva big hole in the middle of the building they were housed in, they expect half the survivors to die from lack of proper medical treatment, half of wounded Russians do. The Russians have been losing over 600 dead a day in infantry attacks on Ukrainian dug in positions in the east and getting slaughtered by artillery and mortars in no man's land with machine guns mowing down the few that get through the hail of artillery steel.
The Russians have been attacking using infantry since armor is confined to roads for the most part, and losing badly, the kill ratio for the Ukrainians has been astronomical, they are losing people, but nothing like what the Russians are experiencing. The Ukrainians are literally killing them by the trainload, they get off the train from Russia and they are often dead inside a week. They need to equip them with body bags for themselves, not guns, who needs winter uniforms, they won't live long enough to break them in.

seems like they're using those old TU's for distance targets, the 2 air bases, and another base that repairs trucks and stuff....basically a crude long range rocket, and what 's freaky......where is all the air defence...there is none......

It appears the drone might be killing more Russians than the guns these guys have, fly over their positions and bomb them in their holes, squad level tactical air support! More surgical in close quarters than having a jet thundering in and dumping a thousand pounds of Napalm on them! I think enough of these type of drones could overwhelm a section of the first and second line of defense and bomb the Russians right up until the Ukrainians are on top of their positions. Soften them up with artillery, then the drones go in for what's left and keep bombing them while the tanks and infantry are practically right on top of them. Before anything happens the counterbattery radars M777s and other long range artillery with long range plane type drones will get rid of the Russian artillery support in the rear.

Putin is running out of troops to launch attacks on Ukraine

“They don’t have enough troops to keep sustaining the fight and to make any offensives.” British intelligence understands that Russia does not have enough troops to launch an offensive on Ukraine. The Times’ George Grylls explains Russia’s position on #TimesRadio.

ok, they've identified all of these companies...time to shut them down, with whatever level of prejudice is required to make sure they won't do it again.

Ya gotta make it hurt, if they broke the law and tighten the screws even more, international cooperation from countries that count is not an issue. They are cracking and doing stupid shit like attacking in mud season when armor or artillery can't move much except by road and using up mobiks by the trainload daily in pointless attacks. They should be licking their wounds and taking advantage of mud season to rebuild, the Ukrainians can't attack either until the ground freezes and that's what they are doing resting and building out their forces. Only a few battalions in defensive positions in the east and some artillery can chew up a Helluva lot of Russian frontal infantry attacks from well dug in positions with artillery doing the vast bulk of the killing.

I'll bet they sent James Bond too! Or several of the real ones from MI6, payback, time to sprinkle a little shit in Vlad's backyard. I'm almost certain Ukrainian Intelligence is acting as a dating service between Vlad's many different enemies fighting in Ukraine and western intelligence services. Anybody who wanted to penetrate Vlad's empire can, because the door has been kicked wide open in Ukraine with the angry on one side of the border and the disaffected on the other.
From Ukraine to Georgia to Kazakhstan, Russia has enemies who were former Soviet republics and don't want to be again! They are surrounded by their former subjects who are now their bitter enemies who seek its dissolution as an Asian empire. China is no friend of Russia and is already taking advantage in central and western Asia where there is oil. They will be looking to pick up the pieces of the shattered Russian empire using soft power with the emerging independent states. If they invest in these places they will use local labor which would be cheaper than Chinese labor, they will own the mines and factories though.
