Most Russian troops taking part in this 'military exercise' are barely trained conscripts with very low morale...

OSINT folks are trying to get their arms around this actually, but it is something like 80/20, with 80% of their forces comprised of poorly trained consripts like these and 20% being more of their 'pro' soldiers such as airborne, SSO, Spetsnaz, etc.

So anything coming down the pipe now.... take it with 2 pounds of salt. Big ass war on the interwebs right now. It's everything to your basement civilian to Russian goverments ninja hackers duking it out. I that guy russian or or a Ukranian seperatist. Looks really shabby.... I've seen some pic's of Russians hunkering down in a huddle, looking shabby AF. No idea if it was russians or seperatist, assuming it's the former. Then again,, no f.. idea. 

 

Ozzy man was taken down ffs!

 

Saw a small contingency of armourd veicles suposedly rolling into kiev ... no idea where it was as everything looks the same outside the center of the city. 

 

Hate this bullshit, he has Crimea and that one i totally get.... but this bullshit?
