Sure enough, as expected, Russian airlines with leased planes don't have insurance... Wonder if the Russian government is happy to use foreign reserves to underwrite this?
Though of course operating internationally means an obvious risk of the planes being seized in some of the countries they can still fly to:

<Insert applause gif from Citizen Kane here>Its not sanctions its a special financial operation
Read a few tweets today (OSINTdefender/OSINTtechnical) claiming that Ukraine launched a big counter offensive in the Kharkiv region today/yesterday. One of those claimed that Ukraine has effectively destroyed an entire regiment (>1000 troops) and pushed them all the way back to the border 
. Found this link (https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/03/4/7328307/) backing it up, but as a biased news source it has to be taken with a pinch of salt. There a couple of new videos today showing destroyed Russian vehicles allegedly from this area (it's snowing in those videos + weather reports are that it's snowing in the region), so perhaps some truth to the story.

I'd be very wary if I were a stooge meant to replace the local government officials as there's no telling if there's not a sniper or bomb waiting for them to demoralise the other stooges.

I wonder how it will before Russia becomes a Chinese vassal state?

Apparently he marched to the front to scream at them to move forward and was picked off by a sniper
Oops, Ukraine thinks Germany sabotaged its delivery of MANPADS.... I don't think they realise quite how badly Germany has been funding and managing its own armed forces in recent years... former defence minister (until 2019) is the current EU Commission President and not particularly competent.

Well when the overarching policy of the newly reunified German government is to stop focusing on the military and start focusing on trade, there's not much use for soviet-era equipment.
They probably didn't know and may have just assumed previous governments kept the stock maintained. Considering the speed at which everything has occurred I think this is likely to be the reason behind it as they'd hardly want to deal with another diplomatic storm.
Lol what a cop out from Germany. And Russia wants to invade Germany again over some 30 year old rust buckets? Amazing
old forecasts are out the door now mate. The US economy in the last 24 months has surged ahead of China's. China has also just set incredibly low future growth targets at its latest policy meeting, it's hard to see how they will catch up now when they're accepting low growth rates and have a falling and aging population.
So on the contrary Chinas economic growth looks like it has peaked and it's downhill here for them

David lammy is Shadow foreign secretary,
Are Labour in government? pure whataboutism.
And I’d take Lammy over her. At least he’s got something between his ears. She’s making more gaffs than Diane Abbot. She’s an embarrassment.
So Putin claimed the Ukrainian air defense and military are almost destroyed, hmmm.
