Steven Seagal made a executive decision to first hand witness the Donbas area under siege. He has maximum conviction that no one is above the law even if it put his life at risk. Ultimately he knows he isnt hard to kill especially on deadly ground but being out for justice is his only goal.

LoL.

Not sure if serious or you have written some of his scripts.

Hang your head in shame! Just terrible.


You missed under siege 2.
 
There are always some celebrities like that... Not surprising Seagal is one of the ones to have picked up the Russian side given his reputation for being such an arse :p.

Reminded of Jane Fonda visiting North Vietnam and saying what a great country it was and defending the torture of POWs etc or Dennis Rodman and his rather odd relationship with North Korea.

He became a Russian citizen back in 2016 or something and has had various dealings with them ever since.

Apparently he's a very hard person to work with in the movie industry. Not read good things even before this war kicked off.
 
Not sure how real this is but its that moment Ivan knew he messed up :D

I mean that shouldn't be real, that's comically bad if it is, then again Russian troops do appear to be rather badly trained... How does that even happen, if it were clearing a position after a firefight he'd not be asleep (he woke up to the sound of a voice anyway even if he is drunk or something). If the rest of his platoon/company has left that position in the middle of the night then presumably they don't have any buddy-buddy system, their guys have no awareness of who should be in front or behind them in their various sections or patrols etc.. do they just all get up and bimble along in any order like some boy scouts going camping? Leaving poor Ivan behind.

The other thing is that that stripy vest he's wearing under his jacket is supposed to be worn by elite Russian troops; naval infantry/marines, the VDV and some Spetsnaz units because of their links with the VDV.
 
I was once awakened (very startled too) by the sound of an M1A1 Abrams starting up right next to the Humvee I was sleeping in whilst on a combined-arms exercise. I had slept through a tank rolling up and parking next to me. Those things weren't even part of our unit. I don't think we ever got within a mile of those things before that exercise or after. (It's not like the sound of tanks up close was normal for us)

Tired troops can sleep through a lot, particularly if they go to sleep tired with explosions or other loud noises happening. You can get desensitized to it. Of course, that's why we have fire watch. (Guard duty) *Someone* in the unit is always supposed to be awake, alert and on guard. (I'm sure whoever was on duty knew when the tanks rolled in that night)

Fair but the sound of someone speaking was enough to wake him up this time and there's a bit of a difference between sleeping through *some* loud noises nearby and sleeping through a massive firefight literally happening on your position with people shouting, your buddies next to you firing etc. and then withdrawing.

I'd guess if it is real they've simply left in the night and this guy has been left behind.
 
The brain does some weird things when it comes to noise and sleeping - it will kind of establish a baseline as to what is "normal" while you sleep, then something different disturbs you - I can fall asleep while loud construction noise is going on at the house across the road but a slight floorboard creak if someone passes my door might wake me, etc.

Not the first video of Russian troops being woken up by Ukrainian forces after their buddies left - there is one where a Russian soldier is sleeping on the verge at the side of a house - doesn't seem fake.
 
That Segal video, sounds like a cheap effort...
It looks like he's on a cheap quiz show, and the voice over sounds like a donald trump dub, but it's difficult to hear the audio properly as the 'commentator' is so loud, and never stops talking.

Be careful what you share peeps.. this doesn't help.
 
McDonald's supporting thousands in Ukraine.


McDonald's has announced plans to reopen outlets in Ukraine, which closed after Russia's invasion in March.

The fast food chain said it hoped the move would help restore a "small but important sense of normalcy".

The company has continued to pay wages to more than 10,000 staff since then.
 
Belarus claiming those explosions were an engine test malfunction - others claiming an aircraft crashed on the runway


Looks to me more like either a mixture of air-defence vehicles and comms/radar or possible the remains of an Iskander system or something like that. The bottom bit could be a deployed crane but there are some bits which don't match that very well.

Doesn't appear to be any evidence that it was the result of artillery or cruise missiles though could have been the work of drones, etc.

Wonder if the idiots accidently detonated one of their own runway mines?

Surely Ukraine wouldn't strike anywhere within Belarus. Although Belarus are providing support to Russia, they're not sending their own troops and the last thing Ukraine will want to do is give them a strong reason to enter the war for real. Belarus is not exactly a military superpower, but having to fight fresh troops on another front would be a big blow.
