EvilHawk posted:https://twitter.com/lesiavasylenko/status/1497677986136576002 I think there's no chance they don't take Kyiv over the next few days at this point. It's just bizarre what the plan will be after they hoist the flag onto govt buildings. The forward forces just chill around the city center in a big blob with no supplies and get potshotted? They're gonna helicopter in some dude from Moscow and declare him king of Ukraine?

Tagesschau: https://www.tagesschau.de/newsticker/liveblog-ukraine-samstag-101.html#Luftraum Machine translated quote:The EU states will close their airspace to Russian aircraft. This was reported to the ARD capital studio. The Baltic states have already announced that they will close their airspace to Russian aircraft. The Baltic states' flight ban will apply from midnight on Sunday to aircraft of airlines with licences issued by the Russian Federation. The closure of the airspace of the three EU and NATO countries will take place simultaneously and for an indefinite period, the Ministry of Transport in Vilnius announced. Exceptions are to be made for emergency landings and humanitarian flights. Poland, the Czech Republic and Bulgaria have also already closed their airspace to Russian aircraft.

The current street wisdom is that the Russians have blown through their entire ballistic missile stockpile without destroying the intended targets, and have no decisive means of dealing with the AA now.
