Putin and Russia preparing to throw 300,000 to 500,000 soldiers into massive Spring offensive battle in the coming weeks in Ukraine.
Just this morning, we did an article on Zelensky making a highly-staged ‘surprise’ appearance in the UK preaching a ‘sermon’ in what looked like an old-fashioned church, Westminster Hall in London. There is so much gaslighting and showboating happening on both sides right now that it’s tough to get a handle on what’s really going on. The dinosaur legacy media tells you everything but the truth. But if you had to guess, the New World Order moving the chess pieces around the board in preparation of World War 3 would be a pretty good and mostly accurate one.

It will be most surprising if this ‘conflict’ doesn’t grow into at least a multi-nation European war before too much longer. All the WWII nations seem to be chomping at the bit to get in the action on some level. Political and military figures in Germany have suggested a return of compulsory military service after the new defence minister described the 2011 phase-out of general conscription as a “mistake” that had contributed to alienating the general public from civic institutions. The table is being set, the only question is what meal will be served?
Russia massing 500K soldiers, 1.8K tanks to launch offensive in 10 days
FROM THE NY POST: Russia is preparing to launch a powerful new offensive in 10 days’ time involving up to 500,000 conscripts and thousands of pieces of military equipment with the aim of capturing the entire Donbas region in eastern Ukraine, according to Kyiv’s military officials.
Ukrainian officials and foreign analysts have been predicting for weeks that the Kremlin was gearing up for a decisive push to seize the battlefield initiative from Kyiv’s forces in the hope of scoring a major victory in time for the Feb. 24 first anniversary of the war.
A Ukrainian military official speaking to Foreign Policy magazine on condition of anonymity said, “We expect in the next 10 days a new, huge invasion.”
According to the official, Russia has already amassed an estimated 1,800 tanks, 3,950 armored vehicles, 2,700 artillery systems, 810 Soviet-era multiple rocket launch systems, 400 fighter jets and 300 helicopters. Ukrainian Minister of Defense Oleksii Reznikov said in a recent interview with a French TV network that Russia is preparing to throw 300,000 to 500,000 soldiers into battle in the coming weeks.
Although the new recruits are believed to be poorly trained and equipped, they have a significant superiority in numbers on their side — a crude tactic that has succeeded in stalling Ukraine’s counteroffensive, albeit at a colossal cost in lives.
Close to 200,000 Russian troops have been killed or wounded since the start of the war, the New York Times reported, citing US and other Western officials.
According to the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense’s latest estimates, more than 135,000 enemy combatants have been killed.
“They don’t pay attention to any casualties or losses on the (battlefield),” the unnamed Ukrainian military official said while discussing the coming offensive, which is anticipated to be more devastating than the initial invasion a year ago.
