The Ministry of Dark Humour and Fantasyland tales must have been under budget cuts to come out with the story of "good will gesture" to leave Snake Island. I confess I had a good laugh at that one.

Despite how fancy and cool this island looks from the strategic point of view (perfect for early warning or as naval base) Ukraine decided long ago that is much easier to attack than to defend. The RF Chief Psychos had to first loose the Moskva, then a few other minor ships (along with wasting the lives of their crews for nothing) and ground troops to figure it out.

Good gesture my ass.

Russians used their superb science to resurrect dead Snake Island defenders...can you point at better than that Ukrainian
gesture? Ukrainians just want to kill without warning instead

I am missing your point. Irony is fun when well played.

RF had to leave the island forcefully. Pretending that's a gesture is laughable and yes, it did cost them troops, ships and equipment. Ukraine "losses" were a small unit way at the beginning of the war that was probably testimonial. And for what some Kremlin trolls argue, they are not dead, they surrendered.

Nono, they died heroically
