This guy either immortal, or have steel balls, or just crazy stupid. Kyiv-Warsaw road, Borodianka area
I think I'd be turning around and finding another way.

Vehcile of Russian column probably blows up on the AT-mine or IED
Notice how most of them abandon their vehicles and run as far away as possible. Only the guys in the first vehicle seem to run to check on the one that got blown up.
Of course with the amount of casualties they've been sustaining you can't blame them for running like the wind.

Lots of new people handling way more ammo than they've ever seen, in field conditions, with time pressures, all without adequate training and oversight. Something is bound to go bad and when it does, well, it does go bad rather quickly.
Remember that video that showed the Russians just tossing the ammo on the ground and letting slide downhill? They probably did that again.

WWII titles for me. The modern wars are too fast paced for my liking.

I saw this on several sites. I don't know if this has been verified or if the Russian commander was "helped" in this matter: Russian tank regiment commander killed himself ‘after finding out 90% of tanks held in reserve were unusable because parts had been stolen’, claims Ukrainian intelligence"
Here's a link to one of the articles: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10655501/Ukraine-claims-Russian-tank-commander-killed-reserve-tanks-unserivcable.html

. I would love to have heard the intel briefings given to Putin throughout February. Or perhaps Putin was more like MacArthur, and just ignored what his intelligence types told him.
His intel briefings probably told him what he wanted to hear and wasn't based on reality.

Just saw this: Swedish Air Force jet deployed over Belarus border in threat to Putin.
It wasn't a fighter jet but it was a Swedish Air Force jet. The article said that Sweden is now also supplying some weapons to the Ukrainians.

Since the Ukrainians have shown that they can beat the Russians almost anywhere and anytime of their choosing what kind of peace deal do you think they would accept?
I don't think the majority would want to give up any of the territory that the Russians have taken. If Zelinsky did allow some of the territory to remain in Russian hands there would still be insurgent fighting for years to come.

The Different Tyrant would be the result of a coup where the powerful elites depose Putin, not on behalf of the people ("Moscow Spring"), but on behalf of themselves. If they did that AND agreed to a unilateral withdrawal that would get the West's attention in a positive way. They would likely overlook all kinds of things they shouldn't. Far more than they are already trying to overlook.
I also think that this would be a very likely end to the war.

They may still be in this one too, it's upright but the hatch appears to be closed.

Reinforcements are on the way. Look at the video below the tractor.

Unless this is completely fake…
It was posted earlier that Putin alone doesn't control the nukes. Even if he did give the order there are 2 or 3 others who have to concur with his order. Based on the quality (or lack of) of his conventional forces and the reluctance of his troops to fight there would be a better than even chance that the order wouldn't be carried out.

Correction-Looks like the US has formally declared Russia has committed war crimes. Good political theater, but I don't think it was a smart move.
2 hours after that statement the State Dept. said "State Department unable to confirm that Putin will be held accountable after declaring ‘war crimes. The U.S. government on Wednesday officially declared that Russian forces have committed war crimes in Ukraine but could not confirm whether Russian President Vladimir Putin would be held accountable."

Probably more than routine training:
Doomsday plane worth £150M that can 'withstand nuclear blasts' flies over English Channel.
"Washington has maintained a fleet of Nightwatch command-and-control Boeing 747 E4-B aircraft since the 70s, with the specific purpose of providing an airborne base for the US defence secretary and senior military personnel to conduct operations during a nuclear war. The aircraft can remain in the air for days and is designed to withstand the electromagnetic pulse from a nuclear blast. It conducts routine training and readiness missions. At least one E4-B is kept on 24/7 readiness. It is also known as the "Flying Pentagon". The aircraft appears to be headed for RAF Mildenhall.
Russia also has a “doomsday plane”, the Ilyushin Il-80, known as Maxdome.
But, in December 2020, Russian media reported that radio communication equipment from the plane had been stolen while it was undergoing maintenance."

" Kremlin under attack: Petrol bomb hurled at Putin's HQ – angry Russian uprising erupts
THE KREMLIN is under attack, with footage appearing to show a man hurling a petrol bomb at Vladimir Putin's home."It was only one person and appears not to have done much damage but is an indication of the citizens not being too happy with Putin.

I'm pretty sure there are Ukrainians waiting for them behind every tree with an NLAW/Javelin/Pazerfaust-3/RPG-4
and of course a couple of Ukrainian tractors...

Don't know how reliable this is but just saw this on Express.co.uk and on Twitter
According to unconfirmed but realistic looking reports, Russian troops have got surrounded in Bucha, Irpin and Hostomel area near Kyiv, cut from supplies. If true - the biggest defeat of a Russian army until now, and Ukraine needs to start worrying about too many POWs.

Not sure what is going on here:
That guy with the blue tape on his arm is pretty brave, standing in the open like that.

Also just saw this:" Putin assassination: Russian despot's days numbered as Kremlin 'considers removing' him.
VLADIMIR PUTIN'S days in the Kremlin could be numbered as a group of elite officials are conspiring to overthrow the Russian president and possibly even have him killed, Ukrainian intelligence has warned."
I'm sure Putin is very aware that something like this may happen and is probably very well protected, but security can be bribed.

Speaking of Chechen fighters.., I just read an article about them on Express.co.uk
"The Ukrainian security intelligence officers claimed that the Chechen army has suffered “numerous losses”, and called them "TikTok troops" because of the continued footage they post on social media. The Service added: “The Kadyrovites are now called ‘TikTok troops’ because of their love of stage commercials.
Because during the war they ‘distinguished themselves’ only by video recordings and atrocities against the civilian population.”
Finally, they wrote: “The main task of the Kadyrovites is to ‘clean up’ and kill Russian soldiers fleeing the battlefield."

I don't know if this was posted before but this is great!

No to be too off topic here but just spent the last 5 days in the hospital for some unexpected surgery. There is no news channel that covers this war like this thread does. I sure missed it and glad to be back.
