Well, it turns out that most (or all) of the 38 “dead from symptoms including fever and loss of appetite” cats at the Korean shelter, were cremated, no samples available. The shelter boss sent the last two dead cats for testing, when he (she?) fiiiinally got his head out of his butt. The cadavers came up hot. The assumption is, all 38 died from the H5N1 bird flu. Why did it take 36 cats dead from flu-like symptoms, before they finally sent two for testing? Because it’s Korea. I was there in 1998-1999 with the Army of the Anus (before it was the Army of the Anus.) Clearly, nothing has changed. If you know, you know.
5 days in Zaporozhie

Again, all this “installment” material came online SINCE June 16th.
Remember, as I told you, The Big Counteroffensive started on the morning of June 4th (the MSM didn’t even begin to catch on for three days), and I already posted at least 135 videos and photos from the period June 4th to June 16th, here, here, here, and here. (Check it out, if you haven’t already. You might have to scroll down to find the relevant content.)
I dedicate all this work to The Candyman, a.k.a. Mr. Dipshit:
And so, here goes:
Below, July 27th, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie. A Boschian inferno, scored with a techno remix of the 28 Days Later theme (thanks to whoever tuned me in to that.) In the first couple of seconds, the Ukrainian armored vehicle towards the upper right, takes damage (begins to smoke) from a close shave with a Russian shell. Then, at 0:05-0:06, its “neighbor”, evidently bearing a full load of munitions, is murdered by an RPG, sending up a 100-plus meter pillar of fire and black smoke, WOWZA!!! Then, at the end, a group of chumps standing outside their BMP fighting vehicle, are struck and DISMEMBERED by a Lancet kamikaze drone. “How many ways can I kill thee? Let me count the ways…..”
Below, likely the same scene, from a different perspective. At around 1:37-1:39, the lead vehicle in the assault column, takes some kind of blast (a mine?) and then goes up in flames after being hit by an RPG from the left—it’s a well-planned ambush! Another RPG comes in from the right. The drivers to the rear, confused, slow down as they come to the destroyed lead vehicle, bunching themselves, classic. Then, another RPG, and that “WOWZA” blast. After that, keep watching, the entire column is DESTROYED.
Below, the same scene, from yet another perspective (includes footage from the first video, above.) At the beginning, the lead vehicle, briefly stopped between two previously de-turreted / destroyed vehicles, takes some kind of blast (again, could be a mine), and, as the surviving dragoons jump off, the RPG strike kills or disables most of them, WOW!!! Make sure to watch this on a big screen, not on your phone. Gonna go make some more popcorn!!! Enough for me and Lindsey Graham!!! (Hunter will come by later with the coke.)
Below, July 27th, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, at least five fighting vehicles burn after a failed assault on darkest Mordor. Could be from above, I don’t know. The only vehicle here that’s NOT burning, appears to be a U.S. M2 Bradley, although this one is likely abandoned.
Below, somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 28th. A U.S. M2 Bradley drops off a team (looks to be at least five men) to occupy a certain position. The entire team is promptly MURDERED by a precisely aimed 152mm love package from Russia, LOL, nuts. Hey, someone’s got to keep the U.S. military-industrial complex in the bonbons, and it might as well be these dummies!
Below, July 26th, likely near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, a Ukrainian tank, hit with an antitank missile, goes up in a 100-PLUS METER MUSHROOM CLOUD (keep watching, the camera pans away but comes back, you will see the cloud’s full height.) It’s very unlikely that any occupants survived.
Below, Russians survey dead Ukrainian personnel (five visible in the trenches, with three more said to be on the surface, further away) who were unable to capture and hold this heavily booby-trapped Russian position. July 28th, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie.
Below, five Ukrainian prisoners in rough shape, at a first aid point, somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 27th. FWIW, the mostly naked, chubby guy, is said to have been a company commander. Makes me think of that wonderful line in the film Gettysburg, “General Lee, I have no division.” Also note the shellshocked, seated guy. Someone made a call that he’s no threat or flight risk, and didn’t restrain him in any way.
Below, July 27th, five Ukrainian prisoners taken near Rabotino, Zaporozhie.
Below, among other savagery (at around 0:06)… At around 0:27, what seems to be a U.S. MaxxPro MRAP, takes a SUPERB, direct hit, I assume from a cannon shell, not to its side, but right on top, obviously blowing off the roof (and then some) and DISCORPORATING all the dumb chumps inside. Somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 26th.
Below, a failed assault near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, on July 26th, with at least two tanks and at least one other vehicle on fire. At least one tank (at 0:18, upper right) is a German Leopard. Later, you see a crew escaping down their own track rut, to avoid mines.
Below, four dead Ukro-chumps near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, July 27th. Get up, guys! Uncle Sam’s not done with you! Crimean babes are waiting for you!
Below, July 27th, very likely near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, a U.S. M113 is reimagined into another state of being by a PRECISE hit from a Russian cannon shell.
Below, counting the barely-noticeable guy at right in the first shoot, a total of eight Ukrainian prisoners, including four wounded ones, at the end. All taken on the southern front, likely all in Zaporozhie. July 27th.
Below, July 26th, likely near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, a Ukrainian BMP fighting vehicle is struck and completely burnt out by a Lancet kamikaze drone. At the end of the video, the BMP is rammed out of the way, to make room for others to pass.
Below, July 27th, in Zaporozhie, four Ukrainian prisoners, two of them quite wounded.
Below, July 27th, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, Russian personnel survey an abandoned Ukrainian BMP fighting vehicle, a damaged and immobilized tank, a de-turreted / destroyed tank or BMP, and a tank with a severely damaged turret.
Below, Russians surveying three disabled or otherwise abandoned U.S. M2 Bradleys, one BMP, and two tanks (one is in the distance, at the end), near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, July 28th.
Below, July 28th, somewhere in Zaporozhie, a captured French AMX-10 wheeled tank, about to be transported to the Russian rear.
Below, an unidentified Ukrainian armored vehicle, destroyed near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, July 28th.
Below, a Ukrainian (Soviet-era) Strela-10 short-range air defense vehicle, destroyed by a direct hit from an Msta-B howitzer, somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 28th.
Below, Ukrainian personnel collecting their dead and salvaging what they can, somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 28th. You can see a destroyed T-64BV tank and two wrecked U.S. MaxxPro MRAPs, also two other MRAPs in perhaps a usable state.
Below, July 28th, somewhere in Zaporozhie, what seems to be a U.S. M2 Bradley (judging by the closer view in the last few seconds) is destroyed, keep watching.
Below, July 27th, somewhere in Zaporozhie, a Lancet kamikaze drone strikes and sets alight an abandoned German Leopard tank. (To the right of the tank is some blasted hulk, unrecognizable.)
Below, a Ukrainian “cameraman” advances to, then retreats from, Rabotino, Zaporozhie, July 26th or 27th, on the way back passing a disabled German Leopard tank and a de-turreted / destroyed Ukrainian Soviet-model tank.
Below, said to be some type of Ukrainian self-propelled howitzer, destroyed somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 27th.
Below, July 26th, likely near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, an antitank missile hits a U.S. M113, which was only designed to withstand mid-caliber machinegun fire and light shrapnel. TOAST!!!
Below, July 26th, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, after around 0:22, two good strikes by Lancet kamikaze drones against Ukrainian tanks. The turret machine-gunner “should” not have been able to crawl and fall away, however, the Lancet’s shaped charge dug into the tank, almost entirely avoiding him.
Below, from the Ukrainian side, a view of at least four damaged and abandoned vehicles, to include two German Leopard tanks and at least one U.S. M2 Bradley. July 25th, very likely in Zaporozhie.
Below, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, July 24th, a U.S. armored Humvee is struck dead-on broadside by a Lancet kamikaze drone. As the Humvee totally burns out, a passing Ukrainian tank is struck by another Lancet, results unclear.
Below, keep watching, a FULL-ON MUSHROOM CLOUD rises from a wrecked U.S. M777 towed howitzer position, somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 25th.
Below, a U.S. M2 Bradley burns out for minutes (at least), near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, July 24th. Poooooossibly the hull is salvageable… if they can get it out.
Below, a Lancet kamikaze drone strikes an abandoned U.S. M2 Bradley, just to be sure that no one sneaks in and un-abandons it. On the southern front, likely in Zaporozhie. July 24th.
Below, a German Leopard tank either runs over a mine, or takes a direct hit from a high-caliber shell, very nice! On the southern front, likely in Zaporozhie. July 24th.
Below, a helicopter-launched missile strikes a Ukrainian armored car or personnel carrier, somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 25th.
Below, July 27th, somewhere in Zaporozhie, a disabled and abandoned German Leopard tank.
Below, a U.S. M2 Bradley is struck and set alight by a Lancet kamikaze drone, VERY PRETTY!!! Somewhere in Zaporozhie, July 25th.
Below, at around 1:02, a U.S. M2 Bradley gets hit by something or other. After the smoke clears somewhat, the turret, which continues to put out smoke, appears strangely low, possibly collapsed inwards, and with some bulge (perhaps a blown-out body panel) leaning against its rear. Moreover, it seems that a good part of the vehicle’s front is missing. Near Rabotino, Zaporozhie. July 24th.
Below, an abandoned Ukrainian T-72M1 tank, near Rabotino, Zaporozhie. July 27th.
Below, from the Ukrainian side, some chumps pass by two U.S. M2 Bradleys, one of them abandoned and one (blink and you’ll miss it) destroyed, seemingly with the turret having collapsed inward, a result of the aluminum hull partially liquefying or burning off. Southern front, likely Zaporozhie. July 26th or 27th.
Below, July 26th, likely near Rabotino, Zaporozhie, two at-least-slightly damaged (the one in front looks like it has issues) and abandoned U.S. M2 Bradleys, and, an abandoned T-72B3 tank, previously (judging by the model) taken as a war trophy from Russia, now dumped again by the trophy-takers.
Below, an abandoned and already-damaged (see the blown-off panels or other junk, behind it) German Leopard tank is further offended by a Lancet kamikaze drone, sent to ensure that no one gets ideas about recovering it from no-man’s-land. Southern front, likely in Zaporozhie. July 27th.

If you’re not on that list, neither I nor Manny will ever see your comment; it will be automatically deleted. The purpose of this, is to keep freeloading riffraff from wasting my time, in terms of having to review their comments, which are, not always but too often, disorganized, rambling, too long, or just too many. (One freeloader posted 10 comments in a day, LOL. Another one admitted to commenting-while-stoned, when he inquired why I didn’t publish his page-long garbage rambling.)

Comments Policy
I really appreciate good comments. Many people come back here, in-between posts, just to read the comments. If you help me entertain them, you’re my hero. A few rules: This is not a chat board. Your comment must primarily, largely involve and directly touch upon something that, or someone whom, I wrote about in the post you’re commenting on. Life reminiscences (if relevant), relating your relevant personal experiences, your job, your commie college girlfriend, your idiot family members, your Ukrainian coworker, etc., if relevant, are all HIGHLY encouraged. The most interesting content here… is YOU. The only exceptions to the on-topic requirement, are if you’re calling attention to a technical problem with the site, or briefly stating how much you love the content or this Comments Policy. Don’t try to “legitimize” an off-topic comment by throwing in some little pre-thought or afterthought about what I wrote. NO DISCUSSIONS THAT STRAY FROM MY TOPICS. My topics are the only common denominator here, and while it may amuse you, most readers have no interest in your thoughts on the Punic wars, or on some guy named Serge, or on how much you generally / generically don’t like the Ukraine and Zelensky; it’s your way to kill your own time, but it adds no value for others. Which means, if you’re responding to someone else’s comment, your response must still relate directly to one of my topics. Doesn’t matter how much you generously donated, these rules apply equally to everyone. 350 word limit, no exceptions, 351 words won’t be published, sorry. No rambling. If you’re not sure what “rambling” is, ask yourself, “Are others likely to understand and appreciate or enjoy my comment, or am I merely jerking off, or spewing toxic diarrhea that no one else wants to smell“? Nazis, commies, worshipful groupies of Mercouris/Johnson/etc., Jew baiters/haters, FBI agents-provocateurs, guys who forgot to take their Ritalin, passive-aggressive needling of the sysop or of other commenters (to include, by dipshits who think their attitude will fly if they mention possibly maybe potentially giving me money at some point—yes, “you people” are all the same), random questions that have no bearing on what I wrote (to include requests for my view on some commentator I’ve never heard of), no-punctuation writing by the smartphone generation, silly “Nadsat” lingo picked up from “The Saker” website, use of the BS term “SMO“, ALL CAPS writing (a sure sign of untreated autism), obsessives who just can’t leave a topic alone after they’ve already said everything (and just want to repeat themselves), and autistic bitching about the satanic USA and its evil pedo pervert elites and how they must be killed (or other bile in that vein), will not be tolerated. If you’ve got issues, this is not your “let it go” zone. Don’t write anything here, that your therapist wouldn’t approve of.
Anyone notice Wagner’s presence at the “African Nations Summit”?……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Sorry Dennis. Totally off-topic.
(Reply to dreizinreport.)
I’m mischaracterized, like Trump, but I’m just not quite as “loathsome and evil” as he is, so I think it would be hyperbolic for anyone to claim that I’m “literally Hitler”. Such claims should be stepped down a notch.
(As for military experience, Trump went to a military academy for high school, so I guess that gives him more military knowledge than me. I just did a year and a half of ROTC in college. No doubt both of us can benefit from your insights, but I doubt he’s among your subscribers.)
Looks like Captain Пикет over there ATE his company. Those other dudes are lucky indeed!
Makes you wonder how many other ‘voluntolds’ are not fit for service
LOL
And a quick post to again thank Jacob for taking the time to assemble and annotate these videos.
Anything that helps pierce through the fog of this awful war is much appreciated.
(In reply to Stephen’s post.)
If the Russian’s want to ever put an end to this current attack from the US (through Ukrainian proxies) on them, they will themselves have to pass across those flat plains and subdue the entirety of the Ukraine. It would be interesting to see how they handle this task.
Maybe they’ll have some advantages in such an offensive that the Ukrainians don’t have in theirs. Maybe a manpower advantage, better weapons, more air support. Maybe they’d have better generaling and better troop training. I don’t know.
Even playing defense against this underwhelming Ukrainian offensive is no picnic for the Russians. I watch these videos Jacob provides and wonder how they would handle an offense.
Random observations from the perspective of someone with no military training or education:
1. A fair number of the captured Ukrainian soldiers in the videos seemed to be in the prime of their lives–meaning they are potential “bad asses” (to use a description Jacob used in a previous video dump). Far from all of these Ukrainians out there are young kids or tired middle-agers.
2. The Russians tromping around these scenes with fallen Ukrainians don’t seem particularly scared of stepping on landmines or tripping boobytraps.
I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be pedantic, but if you were “literally” Mussolini (not like Trump is “literally Hitler”, but “literally literally”), you’d have some military experience. The only conclusion to be drawn here, is that you are an imposter, not Mussolini at all.
Jacob, Are all the captured Ukrainians speaking Russian? I know it’s the native tongue of most of the former Ukraine, but are any of them speaking Ukrainian? Do you have a guess of what percentage of them are ethnic Russians from places like Odessa who would have preferred a Russian victory?
Seems as though the Ukrainians have been pushed to carry out the much vaunted “combined arms” offensive that the west seems to love.
I am not a military person but I struggle with the utility of riding around in tanks and armoured vehicles across flat plains that the Russians are clearly observing and able to fire into.
Would be interesting if some highly decorated NATO general could explain why this makes sense. The men doing it are clearly very brave. I would not do that, for sure. But it feels like the type of bravery of the New Army volunteers on the Somme in 1916, not the bravery of experienced professionals, which I guess they are or (sadly) were not.
There’s an epic four-minute video posted on Levan Gudadze’s Telegram channel showing a single Russian tank engaging with a number of Ukrainian armoured vehicles. All of the latter get roasted. Awesome.
Hey, Dreizin actually was with the 8th Eighth U[seless] Army of the Anus. Interesting.
Who knew that war music videos could be so entertaining. I want my…I want my WTV!
