Scenario: after being bribed enough by the US, South Africa arrests Putin when he visits. Can Russia organise an Entebbe-style special forces raid to save the president? How would it go down?

Probably. I don't know.

Yes, they can attempt such a raid

>bringing thermobarics to a hostage situation
Genuinely, what were they thinking?
>we let those islamist radicals out of holding a few days earlier
>gave them weapons and smuggled them across borders
>took over from local cops and threatened their lives
>now we kill some civilians and Putin's ratings go higher and we can do more about Chechnya
Chechnya got fucked over so hard that they can only have a pretend army on TikTok.
All the Chechens who are worth a damn fight for Ukraine
>These people
Look and act european, are a competent fighting force with scrounged and basic, but effective kit.
>kadyrovites
Look like moron gangbanger wannabes, go to "battle" in gucci boots, get fucked up the moment they have to do anything except shoot retreating Russians in the back.
Truly, everything that Putin touches turns to shit.
Thermobarics are ideal for clearing entrenched positions, and that's exactly what the MGs nest was that they were used on at Beslan. It was nowhere near the hostages. Its really no different to using HE or HEDP, just more tailored to the job.
to be fair, if you completely don't give a shit about your civilians and let everyone know that it kind of puts a stop to further hostage taking attempts
kill as many civilians as possible and blame it on chechnya - except russians are downbred low iq monkeys and it backfired. mossad and CIA do it better
The youtube auto translation for the original VDV music video needs to be tweaked.
Best post
If he ever gets arrested Russian elites would send bee drones to drill through his brain and kill him
His security for one would not allow him to just be arrested. So first step is a shootout of some kind. Does South African forces have enough will to plow through like 20 guys or would they utterly bungle it?
So I can't see this happening without a squad of foreign guys doing this. SA doesn't have the expertise, willingness, or whatever, to do this. So now a foreign squad (Ukraine perhaps?) has now killed like 20 people, arrested Putin. Now what? No way South Africa goes along with this. Now you got a 2nd shootout, and now have to somehow get him OUT of the country alive.
So the only group that COULD pull this off is someone like USA, who'd have their own heli, and escape already setup. obviously they won't do this.
what if someone takes control while he's away and order 66s putin and his pals?
You coult set up a trapdoor where he's going to stand.
Nah he wont get arrested but he will enjoy high quality food that my ancestors introduced to the nation, their hard work paid off
Like yeah a lot of stuff in south Africa is fucked up but the food is export quality
Maybe, but there's gonna be a lot of dead VDV when they crash into a wild life preserve and get trampled by elephants and harassed by rogue Wagner goons.

their SOF units were decimated, so no, not for at least 10 years

Nothing you cannot solve with a "limited" number of mobiks
i hate how we won't just invade south africa and capture putin ourselves. why is everyone in charge of this country such a fucking coward
Spetznas could easily rescue him, he just won't be alive when he gets back.
>Scenario: after being bribed enough by the US, South Africa arrests Putin when he visits
Won't happen since it will lead to the immediate arrest of every South African working or studying in Russia and open up South Africa to Russian military retaliation.
>open up South Africa to Russian military retaliation.
with what
(Glowing morons intensify)
a single frigate im sure that will go well
>a single frigate im sure that will go well
One frigate and a few nuclear subs launching cruise missiles into cities destroying hospitals and other infrastructure more than enough to get South Africa to submit and hand Putin back. Their nuclear bombers that are able to drop conventional bombs and missiles are already able to fly direct to South Africa from Russia.
>muh nook
wow incredible anon.. are the nuclear bombs exploding in the room with us right now?
>wow incredible anon.. are the nuclear bombs exploding in the room with us right now?
You mean these Russian nuclear bombers that flew to South Africa?
that's a pretty nice hull you've got there
If we didn't arrest the Sudanese president we're definitely not arresting Putin.
>Can Russia organise an Entebbe-style special forces raid to save the president? How would it go down?
Communists don't have friends, only co-conspirators.
>The president has been kidnapped by amerikanskiy spetsnaz
>Are you a blyat enough dude to rescue the president?
He's not going to even fly to South Africa for the thirdies larp G7 meeting, they will have some excuse so he doesn't have to go.
They can send his double.
Or just send a double, though killing them might push him over the edge into genuine madness, fun
Putin will. His bff Xi Jinping will also be at the summit.
