I don't have a single source for accurate information on the battlefield. I have numerous sources that I look to. The best source of accurate information is Antiwar.com. To quote Noam Chomsky, "Antiwar.com has been almost alone in regularly providing essential information about these critical matters... Media censorship and one-sided narratives prevail in the western world, but are especially bad in the United States. Antiwar.com stands as a critically significant exception... I read Antiwar.com regularly because it has served as a reliable source for news on a daily basis, independent and unfiltered." They don't focus on battlefield news, but when their guys, like Dave DeCamp and Kyle Anzalone cover it, they are pretty reliable.
For military matters, sources like Col Douglas Macgregor, Lt Col Daniel Davis (https://www.19fortyfive.com/author/daniel-l-davis/), Moon of Alabama, are fairly good. The Grayzone is also a good source.
Recall, though, that the first casualty of war is the truth. In the fog of war, the most honest reporter must report fog. Other than that, remember the Biblical "Believe nothing until it is officially denied three times."
I totally abide by this dictum. No one can tell what's happening on the battlefield. There are no reliable sources, we just have to wait. There are people I respect who will say things like, I don't trust the Times on analysis, it's too ideological, but their raw reporting is very good... NO. Both the raw reporting (which is pretty cooked, really) and the analysis are thoroughly untrustworthy. We may be thirsting for information on what's happening on the battlefield, but it's impossible to tell.
The times is one of the most prolific propaganda rags out there...NO mainstream outlet tells the truth..everything is cleverly framed and skewed mind control..
I was on telegram getting russian front line news but was kicked off,,,by whom i don't know. the west is bludgeoned with skewed and distorted false information and propaganda and all the western news and social media giants are in on it.

Exactly. Which is the great thing about Antiwar.com, because it is very aware of the fog of war.
I like Col. Douglas MacGregor. The others I need to familiarize myself with.
