Is Ukraine about to have a war?
This is a tough one. Ukrainians are taking group of POWs who lie down when another Russian soldier is opening fire. Firefight ensues with the result of the whole Russian squad is shot.
Ecce Homo! Loquitur...

1/ Long story short: it is FUBAR.
But if you want some more details, enjoy. But keep in mind it is not a comprehensive 🧵. The more I read in 🇷🇺 forums, the more questions arise. I hope some readers have better knowledge than me and answer them.

Nothing new. The "Blitz" a versatile, reliable 4x4 truck, that moved around Wehrmacht in WW II was made in thousands by Opel factory in Germany, that was actually owned by General Motors. About one third of total production before WW II was purchased by Third Reich.
After Nazis made difficult to extract profits out of Germany, a barter scheme was imposed to circumvent the restrictions. It worked well into WW II.
When Peugeot factory was taken over by Nazis after invasion of France, clever engineers put fine "design improvements" into their trucks, that made them unreliable, like wrong/too low oil level markings on oil dipsticks, that caused premature wear of engines, etc.

Theyre so short of mx they fired a nuke version with a dummy inert warhead?? 😱😱😱
You dont understand how risky that is until you remember even the USAF gets dummy and live mixed up

One of the shot down Russian missiles was a X-55 with a blank warhead. X-55 are usually delivery systems for nuclear warheads. Unit price of the missile is 13 Million USD.

Why would they do this? Warning shot sort of thing before escalation? Frustration about Kherson retreat, summit unity and China staying distanced?

The first snow fell. And that means it’s time to check out the innovative "tents" made of plastic film for the Russian newly mobilized. Voronezh region, Russia.

Ignore the title, this is the aftermath of the same event. Graphic.

Estimated scores on the doors so far.
Another Zuzana 2 was delivered to Ukraine. Another 16 are in production. One was lost so far.
A clip whichs puts the events in some context - it cuts at the end so no conclusions can be drawn.

If (and anything is possible) the UKR were guilty of war crime, we can be sure that Zelensky would wish the most severe punishment. The moral high ground must be maintained at all costs.
A fascinating look at Putin and how his mind works with regards to the Ukraine invasion from Fiona Hill.
Amazing that Putin still perceives himself as being worthy of sitting at the 'toptable' on the world stage.

So one crazy guy decides to not surrender. It is clear from the second (drone video) that the cameraman of the first video was killed by said russkie.
Given the position of the machine gunner I cannot find reason to doubt his actions as he was next in the firing line, as someone said any of those lying down could also be armed with handweapons.
No crime here I think, just the millionth example of russians being russians.
It is clear from the first video that the Ukrainians are taking the surrender of RF troops, and that they are still in pretty close contact - lots of gunfire around.

Russian media “Mash” showed footage of tonight’s strike of a Ukrainian naval drone on the Sheskharis oil harbor in Novorossiysk.
Explosion was at the eighth berth in “Tsemess Bay”.
Earlier Russian company Transneft, which owns the berth, stated there was no explosion 😑
