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

On a random note - seems the drones like the global hawks squawk 7400 when the link between them and the remote pilot is lost - I'd assumed it would be 7600 - but makes sense as 7600 is when the onboard pilot loses communications. Though I've seen them broadcasting 7600 sometimes and going into a seeming automated recovery pattern/route until resuming their mission.


Wonder if Belarusian tanks are stored in better conditions - when I did a quick scan of their bases seemed while stuff like Urals were parked up in the open a lot of tanks were possibly garaged.

Putin Accused of Plotting Another ‘Full-Scale Offensive’ in Kremlin Leak

The Russian president is reportedly asking for peace talks just so he can stall and prepare troops for a larger scale offensive in 2023.

The way things are moving I can see it as a possibility.

Ukraine don't care for peace anymore they want to kick Russia out and make sure that Russia can never do this again and rightly so

Maybe I'm being thick, but did russia actually launch failed rockets into belgorod or did Ukraine launch them?

Seems to be a bit of both - there are videos of Russian rockets apparently malfunctioning shortly after launch, there are videos of missiles hitting a power station, etc. which are definitely intended attacks not a failure - could be false flag, etc. but the angle and so on they came in from makes it difficult for Russia to have fired them as the realistic starting point of the trajectory would have been in territory of and controlled by Ukraine. I'm not sure as to the validity of all the videos.

There is also videos of what appears to be Russia's own air-defences shooting down their own launched outgoing missiles...

Maybe it something to do with the Russians using spaceX to go into space a few days ago

But this latest trip was different: For the first time,
a Russian cosmonaut had traveled to the space station on an American SpaceX capsule launched into orbit from Florida

I can't say what is happening in terms of buying - but there was footage on social media of truck loads, straight from production, of the terminals being delivered to Ukraine which doesn't suggest private purchasing (unless they are having a whip around and buying in bulk).

EDIT: First hit I could find from a quick search https://twitter.com/Archer83Able/status/1503849987049938944

What Musk says he'll do and what he actually delivers are often two separate things. At the start of the Pandemic Musk said he would supply 1200 ventilators and reopen his Tela Giga factory to make more.

Quite remarkable given governments across the globe were having issues procuring these devices yet Elon was going to magic up 1200 in a month. Well turns out he bought a load of cheap ones from China that were designed to treat sleep apnoea and weren't suitable for people in intensive care.

The guy is the master of the PR stunt, promises the world, the press eats it up and under delivers (not to mention his ludicrous claims of being on Mars by 2026). I would like to think he did actually come through and deliver those Starlink systems to Ukraine but going by his history it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't.

As before I don't know much about the procurement situation on the ground in this respect - but someone has provided 1000s of Starlink terminals which are in use in Ukraine, and there are photos and videos of large scale bulk shipments as per how they are shipped normally from the factory from within Ukraine which suggests they aren't individual private purchases - beyond that I can't say.
 
Its odd that the only people who aren't complaining about Musk and Starlink are the Ukrainians who actual need it to fight a war, and it's only the keyboard warriors of OcUK who have nothing to do with the war that seem angry - I'll side with the Ukrainians on this subject think.

Seems like your generalising about all Ukrainians there.

They're certainly not free anymore.
 
A very hard read, and shows why we have to back Ukraine until every Russian animal is driven out of all Ukrainian lands.

How there are still idiots popping up every now and then on here trying to defend the animals is unbelievable
