New round of sirens in Kyiv
https://twitter.com/UkraineAlert/status/1508928033700208640
Specific threat of expected incoming missiles apparently.
Might be wrong but that looks like an edited version of the Ukraine attack on Russian occupied Kherson airport.
Another good PBS this evening submarines that included discussion on Russian capability -
Thursk disaster attributed to poorly understood technology in the hands of ill trained crew - covered up by Putin.
their newest mega nuclear sub with 72' airborne drone for delivering nuclear payload
(had not realised DasBoat set & first french nuclear sub available for tourists to look around)

[ new ofcom study on people inability to determine true/fake social media posts
Although seven in 10 adults (69%) said they were confident in identifying misinformation, only two in 10 (22%) were able to correctly identify the tell-tale signs of a genuine post, without making mistakes. We saw a similar pattern among older children aged 12-17 (74% confident but only 11% able).
Similarly, around a quarter of adults (24%) and children (27%) who claimed to be confident in spotting misinformation were unable to identify a fake social media profile in practice.

Get the army to leave, heavy missiles, rush in right after when they’re down. Sounds like something they’d do.
In St Petersburg, 77 year old Yelena Osipova, a Russian survivor of the WWII Leningrad siege, has been protesting against the war.
Earlier this month she was arrested by 8 Russian cops.
More recently she was mocked and verbally abused by the Russian public during another protest. People called her 'an embarrassment', and accused her of being paid to spread propaganda.

The siege of leningrad ended 78 years ago, so that doesn't make much sense.

Siege of Leningrad
8 Sept 1941 – 27 Jan 1944 ."She was born at the tail end of World War II, in a Leningrad devastated by the brutal 900-day Nazi blockade in March 44 and thereby she has become a symbol of peace."
Seen a comment about the latest moves by Russia and the political landscape of possible deals:
"Fool me once; shame on you. Fool me twice; shame on me. Fool me a dozen times; I must be an EU diplomat." ~Kevin Croysdale
I've got a bad feeling these latest moves are intended to play on the short attention span and dislike of the inconvenience this situation is having on people more remote to the conflict especially those in Europe, putting pressure on for the acceptance of a hastily made bad deal for Ukraine and giving Russia an upper hand. People just never seem to learn.
Furthermore:
This is something we've seen Russia do time and time again in the months and years leading up to this invasion - no reason to think they are doing anything different to their old habits now.
