At the end of last year, bunch of Russian celebrities (including that pro-Kremlin weirdo Kirkorov) had a private party where the dress code was "almost naked". Pro-Kremlin politicians and milbloggers were mad that celebrities were partying while soldiers were dying in the trenches and so on (which is basically no departure from the normal functioning of the Russian "elites"), and attending celebs faced backlash and some faced some formal punishment.

According to Ukrainian intelligence, russia currently has about 950 high-precision missiles with a range of more than 350 km.

This was stated by Vadym Skibitskyi, a representative of the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine.

"We predict that russians will be able to conduct several more massive attacks (2-3 massive attacks), and then will be forced to take a break again to accumulate missiles and "shaheds". However, some localized shelling may continue", – Skibitskyi said.

Babayaganisation is the tendency for all russian equipment to eventually turn into a witch's hut that moves around and is similar in nature to carcinisation where things keep turning back into crabs. Also shell shock.

I'm like 90% sure they are trying to do dazzle camo and imo its not a bad job of it, especially if it was in the woods.

The US has repeatedly warned Kyiv against such attacks, fearful of their impact on global oil prices and the potential for retaliation. Ambassador Julianne Smith on Tuesday told reporters: “In terms of actually going after targets inside Russia, that is something the United States is not particularly supportive of. We are focused on Ukrainians’ right to defend its territory and to push Russians out of its territory, where the Ukrainians have had considerable success.”

If the US wants them to leave targets in Russia alone, we need to give them the tools to beat them in Ukraine. I really think it is that simple. Or at least I thought it was before we starved them of aid for a year or whatever it actually has been.
