Civil war in Ukraine: News & discussion

[gau8av]

here we go, new thread since the last one got purged and no one has made a new one yet. Lets continue here with discussion and news from the conflict.

I've been scouring the net for info and it seems that barring some sporadic shelling in Donetsk, the cease fire more or less seems to be holding.

The infamous Azov battalion has apparently destroyed this bridge and have been mining other infrastructure around Mariupol.

It would be nice to know why the old topic has been removed.

I was wondering too, the Syria and ISIS stickies went because I guess there were too many graphic images, Ukraine thread was mostly clean in that respect. Oh well, please continue to update us here about the situation.

I think it was becasue of the graphic content (see the red and blue text at the top of the page).

And in the meantime Azov Battalion makes recruiting videos with Manowar

Manowar > Deep Purple

Heavy Metal > Hard Rock

BTW I am surprised that the old people in Donestk play Deep Purple. They have obviously never heard anything of this (rather famous) Russian band:

Do you recognize them @vostok ??

I'm not a fan of rock music. In the USSR, if you wish, you could get almost any musical recording. In large cities, there were no problems with that.

Original or bootleg?

Bootlegs were quite common in the USSR from what I have heard and also Metallica and Iron Maiden played concerts in the USSR .

Anyway, the band is called Aria. THE best Russian heavy metal band to this day. Excellent music and well known to Western Metal connoisseurs.

I would have bet you would recognize them. Oh well...

Nowadays and in past we do not bother about the "copyright" and other nonsense. We are not thieves - we allow to half of the world to produce Soviet weapons without licenses. We simply have a different attitude to the property, less greedy and more collective than in the West.

@vostok what's the situation at the Donetsk airport, I imagine they are surrounded (cauldron?) and cut off from fresh supplies, how come they still holding on to it, no surrender offers made by the militia or .. ?

Only a few foreign mercs are left in a tiny part of the airport. Nothing lands or takes off from there. They will all die soon.
