Ukraine Invasion - Please do not post videos showing attacks/similar

[Washout]

Think so yeah, it was reported last night that they would be in the air within hours.

:EDIT: looks like it's not exactly true.

tbh I'm surprised that was ever announced. If I was giving Ukraine my jets I'd very much want it on the down-low!

No, the news right now & that wasn't this morning, that news was released at 15:44 and I'm fully aware of it.

Then why post some random twitter accounts instead of Reuters?

Russia wont be able to stop the West from continuing to equip Ukraine with military items. They can try but they will fail.

and the longer all this takes the better equipped Ukraine will be. It sounds like plenty of foreign fighters are heading out too. Still, the odds are overwhelming currently, assuming the numbers make a difference.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Can Ukraine actually join the EU?

If they do, is there a similar thing to NATO Article 5?

Seems tricky when Russia would effectively be present in an EU country. It gives Russia even less reason to leave. I wonder how long they can withstand sanctions.

A lot of Ukranian hardware has been destroyed though. How many tanks do they have left, IFVs or artillery for example.

The stuff we are largely giving is more for guerrilla warfare.

Winning the war is out of the question now. Some planes won't change that.

I'm starting to get very worried about all this now. My anxiety is going through the roof.

Is that the reason for the constant comically large tables?

It’s believed he has poor health so is very concerned about covid finishing him off.

Don’t worry, if it kicks off you’ll know nothing about it.

The why post some random twitter accounts instead of Reuters?

It's hard to navigate their site to find exactly where it was published.
It was circulated on the Terminal, the accounts specifically the 3rd one I used as a source uses a Bloomberg Terminal which aggregates all the information.

Article about the nuclear situation. I found it quite reassuring, but I am the sort of Nervous Ned who looks for crumbs of comfort.

AFAIK they've not committed their main T-72 and T-80 equipped forces yet - at least that is the claims and 90% of the destroyed Ukrainian tanks I've seen so far have been T-64s.

They've lost quite a few logistic convoys though - I've seen videos of 3 one of which was a good 2 miles of 3 deep trucks, lorries and ambulances.

This is all part of his plan to terrify us all

There's speculation that he's immunocompromised from organ transplants. There's so much disinformation kicking about that it could be nonsense, but it would explain why he's keeping so far away from everyone.

Keep calm. Remember, not all news is factual. Keep an open mind.

What are you worried about? I'm not worried about anything and I believe in ghosts.

Not quite, we'll get a three minute warning while all hell breaks loose.

Maybe two minutes.

And then....

 

[Azza]

Now this is some incentive!

If Russian soldiers surrender they'll get an amnesty and 5 million rubles.

So until the next time we attack some brown people?

I don't understand the point you're making here.

Care to explain?

That frame grab looks like a game render.
