What's the significance of this? Packing up to go home or board landing ships for invasion? The guy is inferring the troops were moved to the landing ships. It was rumored the troop ships were mainly empty as it would be a rough ride. I saw a video on that they were in fact heavy and low in the water on there cruise from russia, a guy did measurements of the sides of the numbers from pics when they were empty and at dock and did measurements from the pics of the recent cruise to Crimea and they were noticeably sitting lower in the water. but who knows. That guy's analysis of loading was pretty weak. His "loaded" photo was from a different aspect and the supposed waterline was obviously a swell in the foreground. Besides, ballast is a thing. |

You'll need to change this by typing the frequency you want to monitor in the little rectangular shaped box that has kHz listed beside it. Punch in 8992 and hit enter. Other frequencies that often have this traffic include 11175, 4724 and sometimes 6739. Some frequencies are more active than others. And some may offer better reception depending on the time of day. The person operating this is based in the Netherlands, FWIW. There will be long periods where you hear little or nothing. Other times the messages will come hard and fast. That was the case today during late morning. There was almost a constant stream of EAMs going out on 8992. You really aren't going to know what is happening by listening to these. Only the people who have access to the codes will be able to decipher these messages. But they are still interesting to listen to. Often during periods of crisis, the number and frequency of these messages will dramatically increase. Neat. Thank you for the info. |

It’s just, odd, how they’re reporting this. In this day and age, you’d have live streams and vids of the shelling as it’s happening, pics of the dust before it had settled.

View Quote Damage pattern does look a little odd, like a direct fire weapon that either wasn't explosive or didn't explode. Also a surprising lack of damage outside and to adjacent windows. No apparent frag damage outside either. Maybe something got mixed up in translation or there is just something odd going on. |

Anyone else been watching the "DW", which is the German English speaking news on YouTube?
It's hilarious. The Germans are absolutely hilarious. They refuse to send Ukraine any weapons whatsoever, but they are sending them 5,000 ballistic helmets and some "financial assistance." Isn't that nice of the Germans? They'll work in tandem with a Russian oil and natural gas company to build the Nord Stream 2 that bypasses the Ukraine thereby ensuring that Ukraine economy will collapse then toss them some spare change. Real nice of them. NATO does not work with Germany and France as members. The French have always been in and out of NATO never fully contributing. The Germans have not contributed significantly to NATO since its unification. In fact, both Germany and France are continuously threatening to form an "EU Military" and in that effort provide a security arrangement that would nullify NATO and reduce U.S. influence in Europe. Let's also remember that Trump had attempted to renegotiate deals with Germany and the EU, because the EU is not a fair trading partner to the USA. We allow good made in the EU into the US market with far fewer barriers than they do ours. Either the nations of NATO need to be equally contributing states or they need to be made vassal states of the USA, which means that we force them through economic measures to pay their 2% of GDP defense commitments. It's time for some tough love of NATO. Trump understood that, say what you want about Donald Trump but the man may have been the first U.S. President to understand the necessity for tough love with NATO. The GOP needs to start to form coalitions across the aisle to get the U.S. to pressure NATO to do more by playing hardball with the Europeans economically. We can't afford to let Europe become vassal states of Russia and they refuse to be our equal partners so it's time to put them into submission. |
