I think that there is precedent for something like this form the League of Nations, during the Spanish Civil War, an arms embargo that certainly harmed one side more than the other ... yes, I am being facetious in bringing that up. :p

There's some grade A humor, right there, given the presentation to the UN Security Council by the Ukrainian representative on 24 Feb after the Invasion began, and the Russian member (in the President's chair) being less than supportive.
And it will keep getting turned down or vetoed, yes; I guess wasting time is a thing at the UNSC.
"We refuse to use the UN as a means to engage in political dialogue" ~ I think that's how that translates, but my doublespeak translator is having some trouble with it. :p
Hmm, root cause analysis not well done, go back to the assignment and read the instructions ...

Nutty, thank you for the light reading, it certainly was unintentional comedy: sometimes, the best kind.

Sure, but this is part of the standard historical defence doctrine. Get it recorded in something official - even if it's stupid - and then in 20 years when all the contemporary blogs become much more difficult to source, it becomes part of the definitive history.

Do I detect an air of desperation creeping into the outpourings of these thugs? They have no answer to the weapons now being used against them and resort to whining about how unfair it is. They can invent whatever fantasies they like, but I sense that quite soon reality is going to force itself on them and they will probably not survive the consequences.

What? from the smiling, over confident and full of s**t Putin telling the World….. We are Russia, We are Strong, We are Smart… before invading

to the frustrated, not so smart, militarily incompetent, not at all confident and hawking his ass around the third World trying to drum up support and canon fodder to try and regain some credibility having destroyed the Myth that was Russia.

You mean that type of desperation?

Local residents report that a ferry has begun to operate under the Antonov bridge. Ferry consists of PTS-2 and several sections of pontoons attached to it at behind it (reportedly 4). They transport civilian cars at the same time along with the military.

so typical of Russian to use civilians as human shield. Despicable.

The civilians should avoid using the ferry and leave the way clear for it to be sunk!

Germany and Ukraine signed a contract for supply of 100 new PZH-2000

It’s starting in Kherson, revenge.

Seems there are now problems at Ukraine's largest nuclear plant, now Russian held.
Some details here, implicating a drone strike: Crisis At Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant At Breaking Point, 12 Hospitalized, 3 Dead | SimplyInfo.org
Think it insane to make a nuclear plant a military installation, despite all the cement walls.

in all probability the civilians are forced to be on the ferry. Would you voluntarily get on a Russian military ferry next to a bridge that was destroyed as accurately as this one?

Russia is not permitted a vote in any matter related to Russia-Ukraine, under the UN Charter. Any belligerent is required to abstain. They can ask for a vote, they cannot make a vote.

Sorry that Vlad's big European tour has run into such inconveniences as the victims actually fighting back against the aggressor.

Rumors from Magyar land that radiation detection in area from westerly wind ….. cannot confirm

They don't need to advance in that direction, they can come from the North.

Aviation content BEWARE:

Now that's low..



Switchblade hit?

There is another video of the hit from the viewpoint of another drone. Obviously a very targeted attack.

Apparently there is bi partisan support to supply Ukraine with atacms

A member of the Democratic Party, Elissa Slotkin has announced she has bi partisan support for supply of atacms. I will wait till we see actual vote/legislation tabled but interesting if true

edit apparently that bit has been removed from the CNN article

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...e-from-belarus

25 missiles fired from Belarus into Ukraine. AFAIR this happened before early in the war - once or twice - then stopped. Since this isn't Russia and this is a new "initiative" if you like, do you believe the Ukrainians will retaliate to kill the ;missile batteries and give Lukashenko a warning or hold off since it is a Russian air-base ?

Peter, found the link on Twitter, nothing like going to help your fellow man is there.... the only one that seemed to head in the right direction was the dog.



That pontoon bridge the Russians were building near Kherson has gone as well, to be replaced by a cable... Ferry??
