Moscow’s surrender window begins
[Ukrainian troops are thought to be mostly isolated to the heavy industry region of the Azovstal steelworks]
Russia has said it will guarantee the lives of Ukrainian soldiers in Mariupol who surrender in the coming hours.
From 06:00 Moscow time (03:00 GMT or 04:00 BST) and for several hours after, Russian forces have said they will allow soldiers to leave the stronghold of the Azovstal steelworks - provided they leave their weapons and ammunition behind.
Those who do will be treated in line with the Geneva convention on prisoners of war, a statement from Russia’s defence ministry said.
The statement, issued hours ago, said Russian forces have been broadcasting details of the deal to their Ukrainian counterparts every 30 minutes overnight.
If they accept, Russia says, Russian forces will raise red flags at 06:00 and Ukrainians should raise white flags around the perimeter of the steelworks.
Ukrainian officials have given no sign that they plan to accept the offer.
surely this should be so in any case, a non negociable minimum.
So is this just the Russians admitting that it isn’t treating POW’s in line with the Geneva convention?
Seems like it to me.
Are they signatories?
They are as of soviet times.
Sad but true:
500 Javelins in 3-5 days? It’s a mighty effective weapon as proven in this war, what, close to a 90% hit rate? Russia isn’t losing 350 - 400 vehicles in 3-5 days
Why are we counting this stuff in batches? it should be sent on a coveyor belt. Do other countries have as poor logistics as Russia? (you don’t need to answer that 2nd question Magnus I think retorical is the word for it).
Anyway France are fucking useless! 
Depletion rate is far higher than kill rate. Some will get captured, other wont be a kill.
City under Russian occupation:
Call it a 30 % capture rate with the 90% hit rate. That’s still an attrition rate of over 300 vehicles. Shit, let’s make it 200 vehicles. I doubt those levels of depletion are accurate.
