Sternenko does not even roughly understand what modern war is. This is evidenced by this post of his

about our 425th Separate Assault Regiment, where he, in his best traditions, keeps cursing out and slagging off combat generals,

telling everyone that this is not how wars are fought. I will reveal a big secret to Sternenko and to all his adepts,

that unfortunately for you, guys, war is the blood and sweat of the infantry. Unfortunately for you, it is not drones that counterattack,

living people counterattack. Unfortunately for you, mechanized assaults, mechanized columns, they continue to be effective.

And the fact that the Russians do not have them is not thanks to drones. It is, first and foremost, thanks to the first guys who went to war

in 2022, who with anti-tank weapons, including regular RPGs, destroyed most of the Russian tanks.

And the capacity of the Russian tank-building industry is 200 tanks a year. So they just, fuck, literally have nothing to send to our positions.

If they had the necessary number of tanks, they would be advancing, as their regulations say, with a tank battalion advancing one kilometer of the front, two kilometers of the front, and one kilometer deep.

That is, twenty-nine to thirty tanks. For four kilometers, a group of sixty tanks, and so on. That is only in the first wave, and then there must be many more tanks.

We have never seen such columns in our lives. And that is not because drones changed something there. It is because Russia simply does not have these tanks.

And stopping the advance of the Russians, when people mobilized by the military recruitment offices just leave their positions, because they cannot fight.

Because they were illegally mobilized by you and by people like Sternenko. They are demotivated. Because you show them that war is not blood and sweat, but a very “ha-ha,” fun sort of game where you launch drones.

And that is why our guys are forced to go into these counteroffensive actions and stop the occupier. While at the same time winning time in this way for our military and political leadership,

which our military and political leadership uses in order to go on ruling and robbing the state, instead of finding a way out of the war and signing the peace agreement that is so necessary for us.

So if there is no understanding, I will explain once again. Ukraine stands as long as our infantry stands. No drones will stop the operation of the Russian forces.

A territory is considered occupied only when there is an infantryman physically present there. And the Ukrainian flag is flying in Kyiv only because our infantry is shedding blood.

And when will you, fuck, the advisers of our great minister of defense, finally take it off the handbrake, fuck, and understand this? I get it, you have a fucking amazing strategy.

To sell people indulgences by showing them they do not need to join the army. I, Strinyanka, am showing this by my own example. I am not going, I take this armband, rub myself with it, and throw it the fuck away.

I am doing a very important job here, I am fucking raising money for drones. Although in reality drones will not stop the Russian offensive. The Russian offensive will be stopped only by brave Ukrainian infantry.

Which you, fuck, never even mention, and for whom you never collect anything, and for whom you cannot build a proper line of fortifications

and provide them with normal service conditions, and you turn their feat into calling it a meat assault.

I think you have no moral right to do that, and before you judge what kind of assault this is, read the combat employment regulations. You are still the minister’s adviser.
