Whether that # has any basis in reality or not, it's obvious what Russia is doing now that they've been stopped militarily. Same playbook as Syria. Level the residential areas until resistance folds.

Hopefully no issues, because there's a whole slew of things that could cause that trip to go sideways. Is there an Archduke anywhere on the trip manifest?
This is either fake news to draw out the Russians somehow (prime ministers of NATO countries shouldn't be traveling into the epicenter of a Russian military campaign). Or has already been completed since nobody in their right mind would announce this in advance.


Yeah it sounds like the beginning of a spy movie where the villain is trying to start world war 3 by getting multiple heads of state killed and making it look like another country did it. Traveling to Kyiv when it's being rocked right now sounds insane.

Could it not also be an attempt to get the Russians to hold off shelling? I can't imagine Russia wants to kill NATO PMs.

if the civilian death count is actually 20,000 in Mariupol...then the mayor knows what he needs to do.

cannot let a Grozny situation occur in the cities that have no chance of breaking the seige or stopping the artillery

As thousands of civilians risk their lives to resist a Russian onslaught, a global group of cyber guerillas have joined the fray too. They've disabled Kremlin-backed websites, leaked personal data, exposed disinformation, hijacked TV signals, and even hobbled infrastructure. One early and ongoing attack, launched in January, disabled the internal systems of a train network in Belarus, a country of 9 million people that's sandwiched between Russia and Ukraine and has long been under the Kremlin's grip. During the Ukraine war, Belarus has become a staging ground for airstrikes and tens of thousands of Russian troops, and there's speculation that the Kremlin has enlisted the help of the Belarusian military, too.

The railway attacks, which reportedly ruined digital reservations and scheduling and possibly hobbled Russian troops' ability to move through the country, was the work of the Cyber Partisans, a group of tech industry veterans from Belarus trying to tear down the country's regime from their keyboards. As Russian troops prepared to enter Ukraine from Belarus, the hackers decided to target one of Putin's key networks.

Continue trying to evacuate civilians and hold out as long as possible to spare the next city.

1. Are we (and former Warsaw Pact NATO members) sending any long range SAMs for air defense? It seems we fear the Russian S-300/400 platform, so should they.
2- How the heck can we nail that damned Russian artillery and resupply?

Bayaktar!

No seriously. But their priority is still to erode C&C and AD assets first.

Looking more and more like Putin is willing to level Kyiv, historic importance be damned.

Russia is hitting apartments and Ukraine is hitting their military. At this point Russia has become a terrorist country.
No Sir, with all due respect, it was the day they invaded Ukraine 02-24-22

Question here about Russian culture...

I get they are shaming Russia by having these captured Soldiers appeal to their mothers.

What about Russian dads? Where are they in all this messaging?
I think it was Russian moms that ramped up pressure to end the war in Afghanistan. They started bringing the trains carrying the dead from Afghanistan in at night so people wouldn't notice how many they were losing, instead of during the day.

#1 we should have long time ago! Things may be very different now or not have occurred at all. Hopefully these and several others are getting in and operational. Sure would love to see the star streak in action though its limited to low altitude.
#2 MORE drones with heavier payloads & ALCMs.

No. You can see a projectile coming in from the right side right before the explosion.

I was wondering the same thing and if this is Ukraine tank since it appears to be completely alone which I would not expect from russian forces.

EDIT NM i see the column further back up the road. There is also another hit at the 11 oclock position in the vid at very beginning.

Not certain. Seeing mine reported a lot.

Look carefully at the end. A man on fire runs out of the tank. Holy *****

Swapped out a clearer vid above.

Good video of a guy describing how the sanctions are working inside Russia. Talks about things like trying to get his car oil changed, software issues, electonics issues, and everyday goods. Almost in tears toward the end when trying to be careful what he says, but apologizing to Ukraine. The video is long, and cuts out a lot, but I think worth a watch to hear from someone on the ground and the world of hurt Putin is in for.
Thank for posting that. Interesting to see how the sanctions are working inside Russia.

Also a cautionary tale of how much of that could happen to the US.

I didn't see a projectile but that looks like a tank on tank kill from the angle of the explosion.

Pretty big explosion. Seems more likely a bomb/missile that was not captured on the video. Either way, another RU vehicle off the table.
Nobody cares. Work Harder

These guys should be behind a desk pushing paper. Instead, they're sent to the front where they get picked off.
