Previously we talked about the build-up to the new stage of the Russo-Ukrainian War, how Putin's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine continued, and covered events between February 24th and April 7th, as we saw how Ukraine managed to win the first phase of the war. This set up the second phase of the war - battle of Donbas. In the previous video we covered the events of April of 2022 ( • Battle of Donbas Begin... ) including the sinking of the rocket cruiser Moskva - • How did the Sinking of... , and how the conflict turned into the war of attrition in May ( • War of Attrition - Rus... ) and continued with Russia's best month in June ( • Russia's Best Month - ... ).

EU providing huge aid. Go Germany.
It is good that you are adding the political implications.. Such as President Zelenskyj purging of corrupt politicians. Who sold assets on Crimea to the Russians and armed the separatists with weapons.
@@Roboman1807 He would have made something up in order to justify the war.

I really MUST give HUGE kudos to our narrator! I am truly impressed at how you just rattle off those Russian/Ukrainian names/towns with zero hesitation or stumbling. You must spend an impressive amount of time practicing and I'd like to let you know how very much it is appreciated and admired! I have to sound out each syllable like I did learning to read in Kindergarten!
Its true i was impressed aswell.
True. Names are not easy for pronounciation. The narrator is really great at reading them properly...
I felt the same way. First timer will follow.
@Towarzysz Seba of course, but even the transcribed ones are difficult to pronounce as they don't sound naturally as English
@Towarzysz Seba If i had to pronounce these names you would think im speaking of a different country
Thanks for giving detailed descriptions of what is happening in Ukraine. Your monthly summaries are far more informative than any news site offering a snippet of info before moving on to another subject.
Look up Perun
everyone who talks about ukraine get shadow banned this channel is documenting the war as historical context that is why it wont be blocked while any opinions about the war will be blocked . this is why this channel is so imprtant and rare its literally the only source of the real war, seriously go try and find some other videos they dont exist this guy is awesome
@@aleksandrikus2705 are you mentally ill, its literally troop movements numbers, names, statistics . i know you are a bot and i dont know why i would associate but i want you to know that there are some things that arent propaganda and thinking that everything you see is always propaganda is a form of mental illness.
And the news being super biased
Russia is just trying to stop some Nazis, show the Mother Land some damn support Keith!
Being Ukrainian, I really appreciate the education you provide to people! The August and September videos are gonna be insanely great 😁 great video and we appreciate you spreading information, vecause the war isn't over even though it's not as trendy anymore
Increasingly hype for the September video!
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
American people don't want to pay for your war.
@@karangRN Hi, American Hawk here. I absolutely want to pay for this war. It’s way cheaper to crush Russia this way + no American lives are being lost. This war is insanely good for America. We get to test all our weapons, kick our rival’s ass, and it’s all without having to lose our lives to do it.
@@piedpiper1172 this war is good for the entire western society. Destroying a huge totalitarian power while they get embarrassed for the whole world to see. I'm an American Citizen, born and raised in Ukraine tho. I am paying for this too, and I respect people not wanting to pay for it, but the cost would be far greater had China and Russia started doing something together, US would have to be involved and American men would be dying. So I agree I think it's an insanely good scenario for US, Nato, and the whole world.
@@piedpiper1172 It's good to hear (if true) that some regional Russian leaders are voicing opinion against Vlad's failures -sadly they waited so long to do so, hopefully more will join in, and Vlad will be forever removed, along with those who still back Vlad 100%. Treat Vlad like Mussolini - for he will forever be in the background, waiting to rise-up again.
Oh boy, in the light if September events on the battlefield, I'm super pumped for the next video!
Dear god, the September video for this conflict is going to be insane. Very much looking forward to it.
Can’t wait for the August-September video.Ukraine is doing surprisingly well now.
Oh man the September video is gonna be so good :)
Man, the next two videos of this war are going too be nuts
Very much so
I just spent a little over 3 months in the Ukraine and luckily was tasked to a foreign legion staffed mostly by English speaking shooters. That being said, the narrator annunciates each and every region, village, geographical landmark, city, etc better than any of us could! Thank god for topo maps and drones. 😂
Huge thank you!
Shooters? Are you sure you are not confusing reality with your video games. You must be American. You are talking about brave soldiers, not assassins.
@@escoffier1967 He might not have English as his first language.
A lot of people learn English to better speak to foreigners because its the most common second language.
Maybe he's German or Spanish or something
Imagine if this UA-cam channel was around while Caesar was in Gaul, and the Roman citizens were able to watch the videos.
This is so big, we are INSIDE the history right now.
Difference is no one will care about vladimir putin in 2000 years
Caesar regularly sent dispatches back home so it was kind of the same thing
@@Jacbtheguy547 not really considering it would have took a while to get there and a lot could have happened by the next time he writes back. With this war we see daily social media updates personally up close for the first time in history this is historic times we’re living in
@@JohnWick-qr4yc And? You think that doesn't apply here? These videos are technically out of date by the time they are published. You're moving the goalposts by bringing in "social media updates".
@@JohnWick-qr4yc well, some people have really bad internet or can only access it at Internet cafes so that balances itself
I would adore if y'all covered the Kharkiv and Kherson offensives. The way y'all have been covering this subject has been very good and informative. I appreciate it.
We are working on it
Boy, is September going to be fun to talk about.
No kings but quite a few dead generals in this war
No one is safe in modern warfare
@@matheusrondelleite8015 your mother
A few? *Opens wikipedia page of Killed russian generals*
Give it time, I'm sure a 'king' will follow his generals.
I see what you did there 👀
Now, into the second week of September, it's actually pretty astonishing that Ukraine managed to not only hold the Russians in the northeast and east, but also assault towards Kherson while preparing for a massive assault to take the Russian regional logistics base at Kup'yansk and liberate all the way down to Izium in a matter of days. In ten days, the Ukrainian military reclaimed four times the territory that the previous three months of Russian aggression took. Here's hoping it's only the beginning and that soon this war will be over and the Russian people will force Putin to pay for his crimes.
I am from the future
Its even better now ;)
@@totallynotalpharius2283 I think there's some untalked about brilliance with those ukranian offensives because of those very reasons. Ukraine is pushing hard to gain alot of its territory back before winter sets in. Then it can defend in the winter after ensuring a near immediate counter attack from Russia due to the damage the Russian losses would have on Putins position.
He can't afford to organize through the winter and wait until spring if his nation gets embarrassed by Ukranian territorial gains. The mobilization has already increased the tension in the country. He would risk too much civil discontent.
"actually pretty astonishing" Not necessary. It takes at least half a year to train a new recruit and Ukrainian army was flooded with volunteers at start of the war. So with Russian having problems to replace their attrition and weapons steadily flowing one should have expected changing balance after 7-8 months.
Can't wait for the episode on the events of August/September.
writing as we speak
@@KingsandGenerals thanks for the great work you're doing.

You will propably have lot of material for thus month :D looking like end of war is sooner then anyone expected.
It is far from ending. But there will be a lot of of research to do for the summary, especially "Ukraine's Blitzkrieg"
September episode bout to be lit 🔥
Wait for it
As a former HIMARS gunner I always wondered how this technology would play out in a state on state war.
I'll be excited for the next video, given what has taken place over the last few days.
Next video is gonna be good, but I can't wait for the one covering September. Seeing Ukraine finally succeed in a massive push is a thing of beauty, and that's even before KaG provides their expert perspective!
@@Mapia_Maps Ukrainians basically retook most of the Kharkiv Oblast west of the Oskil River occupied by Russia.
So basically they retook Kupiansk, Izium and reached the Ukrainian-Russian border there
I've been getting recommendations for your videos for forever now and this is the first I've decided to watch. I've got to say your presentation is top notch and you kept me well engaged. Narration, maps, graphics, and everything else... it's all top notch. You're a pro. I'll definitely check out some of your other vids.
We mostly specialize in making videos on ancient and medieval history, but you can find content on almost any era.
One important note! The Ukrainian word for region - Область (oblast) has a word stress on the first letter (Oblast), not on the fourth (oblAst) like the narrator pronounces it. For all the native speakers of Ukrainian/Belarus/Russian languages this just doesn't sound right. Please upvote this comment, so the admins of the channel get the message and the quality of these documentaries increase.
"...iMpOrTaNt..."
@@thantzweaung9080 it is important, accuracy is important.
@@autr3553 The narrator also pronounced the nation names as "yu-ka-rain" & "ruh-shaa". Majority of target audience isn't students/enthusiasts of linguistics but of history+geopolitics.
Please downvote this comment to fight grammar-nazis on youtube.
The pronunciation of "oblast" in British English - the language the narrator is speaking, of course - is different and the narrator is pronouncing it perfectly.
I can't wait for the next episode. A lot has happened since this last video.
25:00 "The situation in the Kharkiv..front hat remained stable.. as it looks like neither of the sides is ready to deploy forces sufficient to break the stalemate"
I smiled a bit at that part
It's odd having watched Kings and Generals report on battles of eons past now evolving to report on an actual set piece war in Europe. It's still surreal.
Setpiece isn't a good way to describe it as it's not agreed upon by both parties.
People dont really this war on either side.
@@Brikid Russians absolutely support the war and soldiers enlist volunately to rape, kill and loot
Who's here after the counter offensive?
I'm kind of anxious.. checking this channel daily for the next analysis of the war in ukraine because the recent pushback against Russia...... I won't really feel I understand it properly until Generals and kings analyzes it and shows it to me in map form. XP
It takes time
Love from Ukraine and thank you for the coverage. I know it's a little touch to most, but Ukrainian spelling of our territories is also highly appreciated.
@RussellALE the donbass/east of Ukraine is where most of their farming industry is Russian occupation of Ukrainian land is halting their economy as it is in a stalemate
@@BocaoZ protection of our language carries meaning to us, something you, I suppose, cannot understand from your personal experience. This comment carries ignorance, think twice before you write.
You guys are going to win and make Putin's name go down as a failure of a leader for the rest of history.
16:11 Mistake: RAdm John Kirby (Ret) was the Pentagon Press Secretary, not WH Press Secretary.
Being an addict of this channel, everything is referenced from and in a time -in many cases- that we might only imagine the battleground scenario, troop and equipment configurations, as well as the interactions and personal lives of all parties pertinent from their infancy to the positions they attained-from pauper to War Lord.
But now-almost surreally- you are presenting current history as it's being randomly cast throughout a world where there seems to be little consideration regarding the "Doomed to repeat it" warning.
This channel has presented a brilliant foil between opinionated "History" sources/ channels and true, honest, and humble professors and instructors in basic humanity and its self-inflicting atrocities.
I can't wait for this month's update, with all the ukranian counterattacks
October or November is when we'll get that video.
So, there's a planning aspect to this that can't be underestimated. When two military staff's plan to fight one another, you make plans based on facts and assumptions. As a former FA officer, if my enemy has 105mm howitzers, I would send 155mm howitzers against them to out range them (If i can). If all of a sudden they had HIMARS.... run... just run...or hide... it's either that or lose your most valuable asset on the battlefield. Imagine moving forward in technology by 50 years overnight - I don't envy the Russian FA guys.
Apparently the Russians DID run. Well, at least the officers ran. LOL
@@osereosunbor4352 Weapons are only as good as their users, and in this case, Russian soldiers are complete trash, and that's based on information from Russian sources only. Truth hurts huh
@@r200ti Only that all of the Russian ammo is burning up in warehouses 5.000 to 10.000 pieces at a time! 🤭
@@osereosunbor4352 I assure you, friend, as far as field artillery goes, this isn't propaganda, this is a game changer.
@@tiamat_023 Only if deployed in sufficient numbers. First 4 systems were not game changers. Also ATACMS would be very welcomed, since it would force the logistic lines of Russia to be even further from the front lines.
Cant wait for the new episode
Interesting to note here is the lack of mention of "battalion tactical groups" and more usage of brigade sized units by the Russians. Don't know if the BTG movements are just being attributed to the brigade level or if the Russians did indeed reform their military organization.
There is an ongoing conversation about it in the OSINT community. We think that a bunch of decimated BTGs are fighting together in brigades.
@@KingsandGenerals Wow, thanks for the answer to this question! Thumbs up and keep up the good work with these documentaries. Your well-informed vids are a privilege to watch.
@@KingsandGenerals With the same manpower as a BGT. That's the price you pay for being undermanned to start with. My Uncle Sam learned this the hard way in Afghanistan in the early 2000s.
@@danmorgan3685 All the U.S. had to do was not invade Iraq. It was a terrible decision that weakened so many aspects of the U.S. in my opinion.
But if ya'll keep helping Ukraine, that is a definite good start.
@@KingsandGenerals yes, several understrength BTGs are bundled up especially after the retreat from the North axis of attack and others are currently under reorganization to create the 3rd Corps on the rear area in Russia southern military district AO.
For example a DPR regiment is "attached" to a VDV BTG in Kherson.
Anyone remembers that it was supposed to be three days long "special operation"?
Stupid. It's suppose to be a 12 hour to 24 hours operation. 🤣
"Ukraine will fall in 12 hours!".
"Ukraine will fall in 24 hours!".
"Ukraine will fall in 48 hours!".
"Ukraine will fall in 72 hours!".
"Ukraine will fall in one week!".
(They shut their mouth after one week up to 2 weeks. As soon as US retired Generals and current US military official said that it took the US over 30 days to take Baghdad even after US knock out Iraqi SAM and Iraqi Airforce).
"Ukraine will fall in 30 days!".
Well..it's been 6 months or so now. 😂
Yeah, though I've seen there are people theorizing out there that this stalemate is all part of the plan... like, what?
@@mekingtiger9095 A stalemate is good if it's hurting the enemy more than it's hurting you
@@adamschaeffer4057 I understand that, but that doesn't seem to be what Russia was going for in the first few months of this. Attrition warfare isn't something you go for as your first option. Besides, they don't mean a stalemate only for military purposes, but to supposedly "Wait for the winter in Europe to deliver the final blow in a Grand Strategy 5D Chess plan".
i Remember when it was just a military training and the west was over reacting
today in the sixth month of "the two day invasion"
Guys you know we all are waiting for you about the counteroffensive 😌
Thanks guys! Great coverage as always. Keep it coming.
Love Love Love the video! Excellent job Kings and Generals! I am addicted to this channel! I learn more about the war's events every month on this channel than on any primary news channel. They barely touch on the war besides live update pages such as NYTimes. I barely can stay up to date using those traditional methods. I look forward to this channel's videos every month and it clarifies clearly and efficiently every single major event we need to know about.
Kings and Generals quietly united Romania and Moldova at the end of the video. Well, I guess that's one way for Moldova to become part of the EU.
Based
Moldavia is part of Romania.
Good 🇷🇴🇷🇴
Moldova is romania
Shhhhh…
History recorded as it is currently happening cannot be changed by the victorious or by the defeated. Thanks for your hard work on recording history as it unfolds!
In the controlled Area's it most def can be changed by who is Victorious, but they cannot control the rest of the world thankfully!
History can be changed by nuke though
It's not necessarily true, just see the difference between when it's a Russian strike, the channel mentions the number of deaths, but when it's a Ukrainian strike, they mention the number of equipment stations targeted. This builds the idea that Russian attacks = killing people, but Ukrainian strikes = pure, and morally good bc they only destroy equipment. The propaganda is ongoing from both sides from the moment they identify each other as enemies, therefor the story will be corrupted even when it's in the making. Also, the Ukrainian "sepratist" would be easily identified as Ukrainian minority "Independance" troups. The colors of the picture are decided by the one presenting it.
Imagine the shock of those in Berlin in '45
Whoever wins can just delete and erase footage they don't like or say that it's fake.
@Kings and Generals I’m Ukrainian and watching precisely what’s going on and how situation on the fronts of our war is changing. I can confirm reality and proximity to the truth of the events described in your videos. I also watched some other your videos. It’s absolutely amazing job! 👍Thank you for doing this! 👏
Stay strong and don't loose hope! Slava Ukraini!
You have to love the fact that Ukraine has to be some of the most tank friendly terrain in the world; just 12 percent forested. Yet the most tank laden army in the world has spent six months destroying cities and then occupying the rubble. What ever happened to Tukachevsky's Deep Battle? Where are the great encirclements? Why is this nothing like Operation Bagration? At least it isn't Tannenberg 1914 again.
I love these videos. keep them up as I always look forward to them
Discovered this channel not too long ago and i just wanted to comment how awesome it is with how everything is detailed in these videos. I am definitely tuning in.
With Kharkiv oblast liberated, we can now safely say....
Kherson was a feint.
The "special retreat" was a faint to surround the Ukrainians in Vladivostok, as evidenced by training on the other side of the world
@@joshke335 Damn, Putin is really playing 5D chess rn frfr

He is losing badly if that's the case.
Excellent summaries. Thank you, and please keep this up.
You guys bring the snippets of information we get in fragments each month into focus. I can't understate how valuable these videos are for us.
Its helpful to have a month in review even if current events are way ahead, like Iran already has a bunch of UAV's in Russia. But we knew decades ago you can't trust the Iranian govt for the right time of day.
@@statistics2143 Oh shut up. I didn't even read the second top comment.
Don’t watch or listen to main stream media. You will know way more through other sources and when these guys put out videos you will all ready know what’s happening and it’s pretty cool to see how well they do with it month by month.
Great stuff! Love the updates.
Been waiting for weeks for this video, super glad to get to watch it now.
Really paints an accurate picture like no other analysis I've seen.
Keep up the amazing work
@isalmeda you like how Putin said the “special military operation” would be over in 3 days? Then 3 weeks? Then it was by May 9? Then it was “We never said May 9…”? Now I think it’s supposed to be over by February of next year?
Just admit it, Russia’s getting its ass handed to it by a country that should have been a cake walk.
@UCajMSPzUSyYS2jYT8hWznjw He states available sources, but he does mention that actual losses may differ.
Personally I think that the Russians sit at around 30k dead and 50k-ish wounded and the Ukrainians are roughly somewhere in that area aswell.
That doesn't mean both sides perform equally well though. For example, I for one I believe that the Ukrainian infantry outclasses the Russians in most regards.
They have more well trained troops on the ground, their guys are generally better equiped, and while both sides deploy large number of hastly trained troops, the Ukrainian rookies are still more motivated and determined, which is a very important factor. The Ukrainian soldier wants to jump in the Russian trench and shoot them in the face. The Russian soldier wants to get his money and go home, he is as motivated and dedicated as a McDonald's employee.
The casualties are more or less even because the Russians simply shell entire grid squares day in and day out for weeks and weeks at a time.
I know you didn't ask, that was just my 2 cents.
@@daniels0376 good point, but russians had heavier losses than Ukrainians. According Ukrainian Ministry of Defence, today, 27.08.2022 russian-terroristic forces lost 47 thousand of killed. This indicates only visually transparented, confirmed by video fixation or by intelligence approve. Of course it sounds more than ASIW or British Intelligence reported week ago about 85 thousands killed and non-return wounded russians). But in that number they didn’t include Rosgvardia (Russian police special forces), LPR/DPR separstists, Abkhaz separatists regiment, Syrian hitmans, Vagner, Liga, Rusich and other near nazi volunteers regiments, regiments of other troops, Belorussian mercenaries etc. So, if count as 25 thousand killed russian forces as per British and Anerican intelligence reported week ago and compare with 44 thousand killed russian -terroristic troops as per Ukraine (which tries to give accurate calculation of losses to western partners) means that another 19 thousand of russian-terroristic losses are all those combatant war criminals who is not in official army losses count. So, Commander in Chief of Ukrainian army - Valeriy Zaluzhnyi 3 days ago reported almost 9 thousand killed Ukrainian defenders. It’s around 4 times less than total russian terroristic forces and 2,5 times less than minimal calculation of US and UK intelligence calculation of only russian army ground forces (except Rosguards and other separatist militia and war criminals detachments).

Yessir! Greetings!
Very nice video! Thank you! :)
August is going to be a wild month.
I've heard that the US HIMARS system can hit a Russian cigarette smoker from over 100km away!!!
There are three constants in life:
Death,
Taxes,
And Wagner getting an attack repelled
What's more embarrassing is that those who keep on repelling that supposed to be crack troops of Russian forces now are the reservists of Ukraine who before the war, are basically non regular soldier but a civilian volunteer, whilst the UA regular forces are now transitioning to more special operations becoming more like a Ranger day by day, while the reserve forces fill the gaps of being the conventional forces left by regular forces, and taking the brunt of Russian artillery fires and assaults. Those greens must be battle hardened vets now for the past 6 months.
Committing atrocities against civilians tends to dull the military senses. You forget that there are people on the other side who fight back.
Russians vastly underestimated the morale fighting capacity and capabilities of Ukrainians
Nevertheless Russia is on the advantage
Sanctions didn't do anything
Instead Russia are recovering economically
They’re badass when fighting in the developing world against people that hold their gun over obstacles and fire aimlessly.
This is a fantastic video great job!!!
Thank you for your in depth content.

what an incredible job you do. any chance you good folks could expand your remit to include regular, or perhaps weekly updates regarding events and analysis of the ukraine war?
Been waiting for this
This monthly review is cool, we need one for August ASAP 💯
Like many others said, your videos are useful, as my country shows snippets of it.
Surprisingly enough, before the war started(when tensions where at it's highest), I made custom map based on speculations, which was surprisingly accurate on how the war's going.
Based off the interviews I've seen of ordinary Russians from UA-camrs like 1420, full mobilization would receive an overwhelmingly negative response in Moscow and St. Petersburg. It seems the majority of educated or affluent Russians still support the war but only because it hasn't directly impacted their lives, as most the troops in Ukraine are from rural regions, marginalized republics like Chechnya, foreign countries or the LPR and DPR. There's no way Putin will be able to maintain majority support if he starts forcing middle class ethnic Russians to die for his war
1420 is obviously very biased in favor of urban, "europhile" Russians in the western part of the country. Are you aware of any other similar channels with similar videos from rural and/or eastern Russians? Genuine question, I'm curious.
I've read that they're now going to mobilize in Moscow and St Petersburg..they have no choice.
@@wydiwy actually lately they have also have recorded videos in rural areas
@@reginanazarkewich2288 no they won't. It will be small scale. It wont impact the war much...
@@wydiwy Not off the top of my head, just seen random vids. Of course 1420 is biased, but what I said about the blowback that would result from mobilization is widely believed by Western analysists. IIRC there was a poll conducted by a Kremlin backed group that acknowledged the majority of the country is against it.
I love your channel, the videos are well presented
Excellent video ! Thanks !
Could you please tell us what mapping tool you use for your map animations? It looks great and is very well done! Great work

I love your videos about modern wars!
Great work.. I spend a lot of time collecting just a fraction of what you consolidated..
Thanks for watching!
