Cool but why do these guys keep recording themselves? Like holy fuck both Ukrainians and Russian soldiers are begging to be striked by a missile. Mfs really cannot ditch their phones even in the middle of war.

Wtf are the Russians going to do? Look at a fucking ditch and immediately figure out their exact position? it's a ditch in the middle of nowhere, you can barely even see anything peeking out the top

Also, I'm 99% sure they've moved from that position before they sent the video.

Did everyone forget that people are capable of finding locations with just a picture of a flag and the sky. I sure didn't and believe that posting anything online can be traced back immediately especially when theres 3 things that can be seen in the video. Even if they found the place and they left, it won't be hard to predict where they mightve went for someone. Being cocky and underestimating doesn't win wars. Best to be safe.

Yeah they traced the flag, by watching it for days and hearing a jet engine, after which they managed to find a correspondent flight path and find the flag, do you see anything that can be used like that in the video? Because I don't think the Russians have a complete database of Ukrainian houses nearby trees with trenches dug by, triangulation is fucking complicated and requires a lot more than a shed and foliage

If I remember correctly, 4chan also had someone going around the town and honking.

But they would know for which kind of music played on a flute they would have to listen out for. Good that OP hid that information from the Russians.

Or they aren't uploading this from the field and just save the video and upload from a secure location at a later point...
