On February 24th 2022, Russia attempted (and failed) to blitzkrieg the sovereign nation of Ukraine. Almost two years later as of this writing, the resultant war is still ongoing. Slavshit is where content pertaining to that goes.
This category is primarily for videos and pictures of combat and casualties, but discussion amongst those impacted it is also encouraged. This, along with /h/sandshit, for the current incarnation of the conflict between Israel and Hamas, seeks to chronicle the real, raw, unfiltered impact of modern conflicts which are a far cry from the fairly straightforward wars of yesteryear. WatchPeopleDie.tv will serve as an ongoing, citizen-led catalog of what is really happening on the ground and how it impacts those who live there, be they Ukrainian or Russian. Our independent and unsponsored status allows us to serve the sort of content that mainstream media networks, online and televisted, could never get away with broadcasting and wouldn't even if they could as they aim more than anything to push a sanitized, partisan agenda of their own. We are beholden to none, and any legal media is welcome here so long as it is related to the events unfolding. Vitriolic discussion is inevitable as well; the cost of war cannot be counted in bodies alone, and the sectarian, interpersonal conflicts that flare up between countrymen and neighbors is often minimized and overlooked. Let the discourse here immortalize that for all to see.
RULES
Upvotes and downvotes both increase the ranking of posts equally in this category. Downvoting is still discouraged unless something is genuinely low quality, though with emotions running high amongst third worlders, downvotes when one's pet side looks bad or loses in a video seem to be the norm. And so downvotes cannot serve to censor inconvenient reality here.
Calls for genocide are of questionable legality, and WatchPeopleDie.tv does not aim to end up in a landmark court case seeing where the line is exactly. Don't call for the eradication of people, whether they're Ukrainians, Russians, whatever.
This is true site-wide, but bears repeating here: WatchPeopleDie.tv is not Reddit. People are going to be mean to you. They're going to call you names. They're going to insult your beliefs. This is allowed. Stop reporting people for disagreeing with you or hurting your feelings or whatever. This clutters up the report queue which we use to get rid of spam, reposts and actually illegal content.

If anybody is interested, what's being said by the news broadcaster is "thinking they cleared out our men, they cockily approach the trench, fully erect, only for our machine gunner who allowed them to come close to liquidate them. Then, instead of detonating the grenade he prepared for himself to avoid being captured as a POW, he then lobs it at the enemy". Even as a Russian I find play-by-play war footage very unsettling. And I've seen it all back home.

The future is such a fucking rip off!
We're back to trench warfare and international conflict?

As I heard from one person analyzing the war, “it proves that there is still room for a man with a gun and a will in a foxhole on the modern battlefield.”

There will always be a need for boots and guns, but with the crazy tech available, it seems silly.

Well, the fancy stuff is actually liable to run out over the long term. That’s where, “outdated” bullshit comes in. Dumb rounds for artillery? T72s, T90s? Junk. But guess what, for every modern round or tank you can churn out, my tractor factory can churn out 10 times that much in outdated junk. And in a long term conflict, that makes a big difference. Same thing with conscription. In a serious conflict, you’ll quickly run out of volunteers, and that’s when the benefit of having a decent conscription program in place comes in. Of course, the infantryman becomes less and less important. But he’ll almost certainly always have a job.

I know right... all these years you are being taught how we are advancing forward...
Human rights.
Then you are taught about our dark past.. .WWII...
Then you are like Soviet Union and its totalitarian regime is a heritage of our past but the world is healing...
Nope. We are back in that and never left. 30 years of progress, just lost.

I think the issue there is assuming humans should be the ones to carry things forward.
We're still slightly evolved chimps with some level of genius when it comes to innovation and technology.
The downside is we tend to use that to find new and remarkable ways to efficiently kill as many people as possible.
Humans invented the nuclear bomb. Really think about that for a second... the smartest, brightest humans thought it would be a fantastic idea to create a weapon that can kill millions in a matter of minutes.
If we reached space we'd only be seeing tribalism between planets, with Mars and Earth launching planet-cracker class missiles at each other...

Repost I think. I wonder who was more scared, Ivan not knowing how many were outside his trench or hohol moving in the open with no cover.

Probably the Russian. The Ukrainians seemed pretty confident, it looks like they killed one of the Russians in the trench already- they wouldn't approach it like this if they didn't feel like they had a good chance at not being killed.

What’re they supposed to do? Stand out in the open? They gotta keep moving.

It seems they believed they had cleared the trench. They probably saw the one Russian go down after being shot or w/e, then they didn't hear/see anything coming back for a while (probably the few minutes that are cut out). So, they believed that any Russians in the trench were either dead or too wounded to fight, so they move up to seize it...
In a case where you're unsure like this, the best course of action would be to throw a grenade or three into the areas you can't see clearly. One of you throws while the other has their rifle trained on the area you're worried about- if the Russian sees the grenade land next to him, he might try to stand up and run or shoot- the man with the rifle would be covering that area, hopefully able to immediately shoot. Also, where's one of their bomber-drones when they need it?! this would've been a perfect target. Hell, they didn't even need a drone equipped with bombs, just the camera... drone operator could've communicated to them "There's still at least one enemy soldier alive, armed in that trench, behind the body".
This is just the nature of clearing tight quarters, though. You have to take that risk eventually; you have to put yourself directly in the line of fire in order to confirm that the enemy is defeated and you can move in. They might've been out of grenades and felt that their only chance was to push hard and fast with their rifles.

Yeah, and hindsight is 20/20. They should have considered fanning out a little more. The most minor details can be the difference between life and death.

I wonder how long does it take for them to dig those ground hog trenches ??🤔😏

It takes an excavator a few hours to dig out a good trench.
There won't be a whole lot of guys in there with entrenching tools digging trenches this deep.

Ukraine supporters are out of their fucking minds. Did you see that tweet that NATO posted? “We are Harry Potter and William Wallace, the Na’vi and Han Solo. We’re escaping from Shawshank and blowing up the Death Star.”
They are appealing to the man-children and woman-children of reddit. They're talking about being characters from novels for pre-teens and fictional sci-fi films while the young men, whom would probably be friends under most other circumstances, are murdering the shit out of each other, dying face down in the mud, crying for their mothers.
I must've missed that part of Harry Potter, or the Shawshank Redemption. I don't remember anything like that in Star Wars, either.
It's shit like this that makes it hard for me to remain objective on this conflict. I don't want to "support" either side, it's not really my business and it doesn't affect my life- but when I see shit like this from goddamned NATO, it makes me hate them.

This is fking stupid, I say that many time even in Ukraine sub (which they removed by post), everyone need to get some of they salary and get couple of drones (or at least 2) for trench cleaning. There ain't no way those soliders don't have enough saving to buy to drone that can drone grenade.
It is like I mentioned years ago, those bomb disposal people should have just spend couple of month of their salary to get a robot to do that for them instead.
People are stupid in a way they can't weight value like htis.

This was my first clue about the nature of this conflict. When all of the people who despise me, who have been undermining my country and interests for generations, are the ones who throw their lot in with the Ukraine, I start asking a lot of questions.
The entirety of Western media was leveraged against Russia, 100% in support of Ukraine; there's no journalism, it's all editorials. No one is being objective and just giving facts- that's what journalism is supposed to be. Instead, it's just plain old wartime propaganda (research wartime propaganda, you'll see a lot of really familiar concepts).
This doesn't mean I have to "support" Russia. It just is what it is.

Both countries are corrupt and cannot be trusted lmao. Simple as that. It’s so funny how this is going on and we are funding them….. but if someone were to be giving the cartels and Mexico $40 billion every other month (Ik that’s not the right number and time frame) then the USA would declare war on the people funding them. Double standard even in war bruh.

Great footage. Russia is just trying to show that our America is bought out by China and that we and China are the ones that keep spreading viruses to force people to take our vaccines or their lives are fucked. I actually like Russia after this war because it shows a lot. Where our taxes go, who the real Allie’s are, who the real dictators of the world are.
