List of Russian intel channels for live footage and actual news. If you don't know Russian good you will have to use these on the mobile device and I think set the translate option. Which then lets you click on the message and translate.
I cant link all of them because many are private groups but these ones you should be able to join.

Also guys avoid talking English they are not too happy with EU and USA right now with the Ukraine stuff and may think your a propagandist because they think all America is falling for it right now
This is all the more reason to check these sites out and show them the TRUE America, not some leftist propaganda or Putin propaganda bullshit.
B-b-but....

Here is a channel that's russian/english:

This is a german girl living in Donbass, currently its russian/german but i think she is working on a english translation:

This is a really good one! Now you can see the Russian perspective. The videos and pics are raw and unlike the ones you see on TicTok (100% pro Ukraine) which have production ie music, and narration added which means they're edited.
Been following intel Slava z, good flow of info on that channel
Thanks for the English translation site. I did happen to just see it (intelslava) post the same video of the burned Ukranian tanks within a minute of (ASBmilitary) Twitter site above.
Intel Slava FTW
Hello brother, dual citizen here. Russian from mother side.
So what's the deal then? Is this a fake war? Is anyone really dying? Every war since WWII has had footage of block-by-block fighting. Nothing from Ukraine.
Come on dude, yes thousands. We aren't crushing Russias economy back 20 years over nothing. Ive seen hundreds of videos of the fighting, tanks being blown up, planes and helicopters shot down, drones taking out fighting vehicles, running gun battles in the street etc etc etc
On the 8th Russia has a hearing before the ICC on war crimes. Its a horrible human tragedy. Don't fall for the russian propaganda trying to convince the world otherwise. These are the same liars who said they weren't going to invade.
Goodbye shill, this is you. https://patriots.win/u/Badfinz_FL/ Did you get banned for shilling and make another user?
Thanks for sharing a PERFECT example of the denial/misinformation/apologist content I was warning about. No value, no data, no evidence to support anything, just SHILL SHILL SHILL!!!!
Found another russian boys! Enjoy your cratering economy comrade!.
Misinformation and disinformation are critical components to the Art of War, and are both permissible per the DoD Law of War manual in combat operations throughout the world.
Such tactics are not reserved to one side of the conflict. Ukrainian and Russian forces are both equally engaged in these activities. We are in the fog of war where uncertainty is most thickest.
Try to look beyond what is shown on the TV. Use discernment and seek out on the ground reporting from Ukrainian civilians. You will find that they tell a very different story to that of the Mainstream Media.
Well said sir. Could not agree more, and if we are being honest the use of disinformation is one of the areas where Russia has shown its mastery.
This is why IMO eyewitness video (smartphone, security/traffic cameras, drone footage) etc etc etc is so critical to diligently review outside of the lens of conventional and international MSM. TickTock especially is incredible in this way as it is allowing a broad audience to see irrefutable first hand evidence.
Now, can someone make the argument that because its controlled by the CCP we should be wary about all the demographic and psychographic data they now have access to because of the success of TickTock.....sure theres a valid argument for another time there, but broadly if we are only discussing a lens of truth by with to review for yourself as to what is happening on the ground, there is no other alternative that I know of as sound.
walk at the bottom of the ocean with a notion
A few of my own:

So Russia isnt leaving in tears? Thats what social media is telling Me..... /s but for real
No, they are leaving with tears streaming down their faces...
LUL
Inhope they are dominating
There is a big difference in some of the equipment.. I feel like I've seen a few tanks that literally looked like they just came off the production line, and behind them are 20 "Little Willies" from 1920
Any good links?
And what exactly are all these Russian outlets reporting on?
The war and politics my friend
*liberation
Random thought. OPEC countries aren't following the Ukraine propaganda. What happens to the west of all OPEC countries tell them to go fuck themselves?
Europe is done for.
US can recover but it would be devastating in the short term.
Good share thanks!
How I wish I understood Russian.
Duolingo is the best place to get your feet wet, I had tried for years to learn the cyrillic alphabet and break into learning Russian and within 2 months of using the app I had learned 10x more than the traditional methods I tried in previous years

Are there any not on telegram?
The day I read the Tass is a day I proclaim that I am stupid and willing subject of propaganda. It has not changed on iota from Communist Soviet Union from the 80's.
CNN on steroids.
The only way is watching propaganda from both sides and make up your own mind.
There is always 3 sides to the truth
Yes Tass was proposed as a news organization and not an outright propaganda engine. People don't know how to be critical about reading. Such as you.
Thank you for posting these.

"reeeeeee russia bad russia bad! all misinformation! our media must be trusted, despite lying every day every hour with every event!"
What ever happened to looking at BOTH sides? I remember the libfucks as far back as Vietnam would argue FOR America's enemies. This is the first time they've made the switch!
https://t.me/s/AussieCossack is good because he is getting intel from inside Ukraine and is providing commentary.
Nice bro! good stuff.
Is this why Q said something along the lines of learning Russian? 👀
Excellent info! Thank you, fren! :-)
I have been following Russell Bentley as well.
Nice list.
Does Telegram have a translator?
Yes on the mobile version. But desktop i dont think, you will have to use something else. I use deepl.com for desktop to translate non Russian channel and for example i just highlight posts in the French and Spanish channels and press Ctrl c and it translates it to Russian or English for me
Is there any software that translates video content that you know of?
I found one called happyscribe but you have to pay for everything. If you have something you need translate I can help as I am native speaker.
