Wagner Group posted to social media the address of one of their bases, LOL. HIMARs have already taken care of it.

Love how they tried to camouflage the walls as if that was most important in hiding the location.

The thing is nuclear power plants aren't something you can just turn off. An immediate disconnect from the grid could bring the cooling towers offline...very not good.

This does not sound like an action taken by a side for whom things are going well.

I'm not sure how the Russians thought they could take over a country with people willing to do this:


If my church had saints, this guy should be canonized as one.

I imagine North Korea will just bring them in by ship to Vladivostok.

Sounds like lzyum is going to fall soon, possibly as soon as today. Most devestating to Russia is their troops won't be able to retreat.

I bet Modi supporters in India are deeply triggered now.

Seems like the predictions that if Ukraine just holds on long enough the Russian Army will just fall apart in the end could turn out to be true.
Ukraine actually probably has them even outnumbered now when including paramilitaries and partisans.

If Russia fully commits, 0.1%. They can make it a costly victory tho, if their chain of command or supply lines don't get cut.


Didn't age well.

Unlucky:



This is a bit too much. I am not convinced that university staff, unless very politically vocal, are valid targets. I mean, come on, this is just some old woman.

Obviously, it is different when it comes to governors, mayors, security forces etc.
She had a Russian bodyguard. That's direct collaboration. Imagine how the French Resistance would've treated a university administrator appointed by the Germans or Vichy government under direct protection of the SS/Milice.

Someone pointed out somewhere that aot of collaborationists posted videos of themselves with the Russian forces when they moved in, so identifying them now post-liberation is quite easy. Expect them to get the French collaborationists in 1945 treatment soon.
