Russia & Ukraine

Looks like somebody is trying to avoid the expense and hardship or a divorce and settle a few scores and is willing to wipe his whole unit out as collateral damage.

The soldier needs to be disciplined too for giving out operational information to the wife. Too many biitches out there.


Firing squad comes to mind.


Woman Detained for Telling Russia Whereabouts of Husband's Army Unit - Ukraine

The woman would question her husband about the location of his unit and other Ukrainian formations on the frontline, the agency said.

"She would pass the information she received through messenger applications to Russian military intelligence, where it was used for artillery and air strikes," its statement said.

"She took this step despite the fact that she is married to a serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and that they have a son together," the agency said.

Professor John Mearsheimer blames NATO expansion. No excuse for Putin but that it would result in war is easy to see.

"I think all the trouble in this case really started in April, 2008, at the NATO Summit in Bucharest, where afterward NATO issued a statement that said Ukraine and Georgia would become part of NATO. The Russians made it unequivocally clear at the time that they viewed this as an existential threat, and they drew a line in the sand."

 
Let's take a look at an article from 2019 which outlines Russia's aggression against Europe. This is not about "NATO in Ukraine" or "Nazis in Ukraine" or any of the other nonsense being pushed by Russian propagandists. The Ukraine invasion is just a failed step in Putin's long term plan.

How Russia is slowly encircling Europe
Described as a Cold War casualty, Russia has been reasserting itself both politically and militarily. Experts argue that Moscow aims to reclaim its old glory.

Antonovsky bridge yesterday. You can be pretty sure no military columns are passing this.

Pretty interesting strategy by Ukrainians. They clearly did not want to collapse the bridge because they know they will have to repair it for themselves later. But they 100% prevented any movement on the bridge except by foot.

Also shows how precise current Ukrainian artillery is. Nothing Russians have even approaches this kind of precision. That is why you see Ukrainians hitting ammo depots and military HQs while Russians are hitting apartment buildings.

True, there is the theory that the Ukrainians do not want to take the bridge out completely to preserve it for their use.

And then there is also the theory that they want to damage it enough to prevent the passage of equipment but not foot traffic because the Ukanians want as many Russians as possible to pass into the containment/entrapment area before they take the bridge out and trap them like rats.

Unfortunately for the Russians, either way, it is probably for the Ukrainians to decide and there is not much the Russians can do about it.

The next month is going to be ugly. Vlad has ordered his generals to take much ground by the end of the month or else.
 
Gridlock as hackers order hundreds of taxis to same place in Moscow

By Matthew Holroyd • Updated: 02/09/2022

Hackers attacked a popular Russian taxi app on Thursday, sending hundreds of drivers to the same address in Moscow and causing massive traffic jams.
Multiple videos were shared on social media showing dozens of taxis gathering in the same place in western Moscow, creating gridlock and forcing drivers to avoid the traffic jams and tailback.
