The question of the killing of a Russian Combatant is surely for the pages of the Jet Blast Thread.
Although I would like to add, that my concern with a couple of comments has to do with the fact that he was killed outside of the base in Russia.
It would seem that the Western Political narrative that killing Russians inside of Russia is an escalation and must therefore stymie the Ukrainian war effort.
This is being gamed by the Russians and those who lack fortitude.
Lets be really honest with each other here, the Russians are calling it an SMO...it isn't its a War.
A war of survival for the Ukrainians.
Taking the War to the homes of Russian servicemen is a big wake up call to the Russians.
We applaud our spies in the 1940s in occupied Europe, we should also me applauding the SF teams deep in Russia.
Slava Ukraini
