Maybe Putin is as much of a potato as Biden?

All of this are losses from 1-2 days ago only now did Russia release footage of high enough resolution to be able to ID these vehicles.

Russia: The entire banking system is at a standstill nationwide because the ISP used for banking communication with the Russian Central Bank is down. Infotel, the ISP, is suspected to have been hacked by a pro-Ukraine group. Sberbank's online services also down. pic.twitter.com/OFjmW8zjLl

The suckup Ukrop propaganda blitz is just amazing

Perhaps you could add something of value to the conversation?

Infotel may have just come back online but

33 hours down and counting. Apparently some of their infrastructure burned up.

Quote

Cyber.Anarchy.Squad appears to have taken credit. The group posted Infotel's full internal client list - 100 out of 400 are banks, the rest are credit institutions, car dealers, and of course the Russian Central Bank. The group says the entire infrastructure has been destroyed. pic.twitter.com/niCeP84mGH

With Infotel taken down and its networking equipment physically fried with kinetic cyber attacks, inter-bank transactions are having to be done manually in Russia. Infotel network has been down for 31 hours and counting. pic.twitter.com/W2bGsgiCx7

Quote from Ah-1g

“Oliver Alexander, an independent open source investigator, said after reviewing video of the incident that it looks like after losing the four Bradleys, the Leopard and the BMR-2 armored demining vehicle in one location, "4 more M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA IFVs drove to the exact same position and started taking loses."

There seems to have been some Russian level of stupid going on in the command. They sure are getting a lot of heat for fucking up the same way twice. Some of the vehicles were recovered. There were some pics from Russians yesterday several hundred yards away so they seem to be in no mans land.

More info on the infotel cyber hit

https://cyberscoop.com/ukraine…ffensive-hackers-infotel/

The attack on Infotel, which appears to have begun Thursday, comes on the heels of a long-awaited Ukrainian counter-offensive. The Cyber Anarchy Squad — a Ukrainian hacking group active since last year’s invasion of Ukraine — took credit for the attack. The group posted to its Telegram channel what appeared to be Infotel network diagrams and a screenshot from inside an Infotel official’s email.

“Acidify the soil, fill the ground with concrete,” the group wrote in a message posted to Telegram, according to a Google translation. “All their infrastructure is destroyed, nothing alive is left there.”

Sean Townsend, a spokesperson for the loose collective of hackers and various hacking groups in Ukraine known as the Ukrainian Cyber Alliance, told CyberScoop in an online chat that it is his understanding that “Infotel was wiped, including servers (backups too) and core routers (configs reset, firmware erased).” Townsend added that Infotel JSC “cannot bring up the BGP routing” — which internet service providers use route internet traffic — and added that “I expect that they will (spend) no less than a week to restore the service at minimal level.”
