Courtesy of the Russian Army: German war materiel for Ukraine lost after only three days - mercenaries flee in scissors
Western arms deliveries to the Ukrainian army are increasingly becoming a fiasco. Not only are many poorly trained soldiers and partly civilians unable to operate the heavy, technically sophisticated war materiel, it is also falling into the hands of the Russian army in large quantities because it is captured in battle or simply abandoned. The Russian army as well as pro-Russian militias have now officially thanked themselves for the "weapons donations".
German rocket launchers and missiles captured after three days
Almost two weeks ago, the German government in Berlin authorized the delivery of heavy war materiel to Ukraine. It was 500 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles 1000 rocket launchers to Ukrainian troops, many of them "unsound" for use, as later reports from Ukraine reported. After three days, the weapons arrived at least in the Kiev district, where, however, they were quickly captured by the Russian army - at least in part.
As videos show and the Russian army confirmed, at least a dozen German rocket launchers and other anti-aircraft missiles were captured. A short time later, Russian troops and Donbass militias had captured some Western Javelin and NLAW armor-defense systems and promised to use them AGAINST the Ukrainian army. The same fate is now likely to befall the German rocket launchers. Here's the video:
Foreign mercenaries report "from hell"
A similar fiasco is currently taking place in the Ukraine with thousands of foreign mercenaries who traveled to the war zone "for an adventure. More and more videos show desperate soldiers from Britain, Canada or the USA, who have never been confronted with such warfare in their military lives and are now scarred by sheer dismay. The literal tip of the iceberg was the Russian airstrike on a supposed NATO training support base in western Ukraine, which contained dozens of western mercenaries.
In wars such as Iraq, people were used to getting air support and fighting against technologically weak armies, but in Ukraine it is different. Russian air strikes and artillery shelling bombard the mercenaries. Many leave again, to the extent that they still can. For the Ukrainian government forces foreign soldiers into strangling contracts of at least three years (!) of combat commitment. Moreover, fleeing mercenaries have their passports taken away and are sent back to the front. According to insider reports, the Ukrainian army uses the foreign mercenaries to fight hopeless battles, i.e. as cannon fodder.
