Russia has started using civilian vehicles to transport fuel to its military units in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.A video published by the Exilenova+ Telegram channel captures Russians describing […]
This is a big reason why military vehicles are usually made to look aesthetically different than civilian vehicles.
Even a classic “technical” built from a pickup truck or a flatbed truck (for a larger antiaircraft gun) still clearly has a massive gun on it despite the rest of it looking civilian… this is just throwing your entire civilian population to the dogs by using them to hide your military logistics.
It is dangerous as hell for everyone to start down this path.
It would help them convince muskovites to continue supporting the war when Ukraine “ramps up their war of terror” on Russia…
I can see the cold logic to it… More supplies reach the front lines, and more civilian bodies allow the war to continue. Maybe it could even convince some to go to the front willingly? Especially with drone wave attacks reaching so deep into their homeland.
The Ukrainians are really in a rough spot. They need to avoid galvanizing the political core of Russia too much in Moscow and St. Petersburg while still inflicting meaningful damage to the enemy.
I’m just glad it looks like Russia is out of gas soon (ha! In more ways than one!) and Ukraine might force concessions and reclaim their occupied territory back.

So all civilian type cars are legitimate targets now.
That’s not good for the remaining residents.

The Russian military leadership doesn’t give a shit about the safety of their own troops, why would they care about risks to civilians?
