A military expert in the Norwegian armed forces, says that it looks like Kiev is the main target of the Russian forces.

– It is the fifth flank from the northwest, over the Russian and Belarusian border, that is closest to Kiev, and that will be where the main attack will come from.

I don't think a thread called Russia is proper to cover this event. It also could entail a lot of other issues regarding Russia. This is a thread about what is happening in Ukraine.


like we got a clue bout whats happening in ukraine anyway

Vladimir Putin’s televised announcement of a “special military operation” against Ukraine, broadcast early Thursday morning, was filmed three days ago, according to Russia’s Novaya Gazeta. The newspaper, whose editor-in-chief shared last year’s Nobel Peace Prize, published on its Twitter feed what it said was metadata from the Kremlin website showing that the video was recorded on Feb. 21 at 7 p.m. Moscow time. Separately, the Russian-based Conflict Intelligence Team pointed out that Putin was wearing the exact same suit and tie in Thursday’s broadcast as he wore when he announced that Russia was to recognize two breakaway regions in eastern Ukraine—the prelude to all-out war. In the same Twitter thread, the CIT team also claimed that a NOTAM no-fly noticed issued by Russian authorities overnight was dated Feb. 22. “That could suggest that a mass invasion of Ukraine had been planned for February 22, but was delayed for reasons we do not know,” it said.

Ukrainian authorities says they have lost control over Kherson and Henichesk in the south of the country.

My sister in law comes from Kherson, and her family and friends live there.

Once Russian troops are in the Ukraine, can the US not fight them there? I'm sure there are a few drones in the sky right now.

The worry is that the encasing for the damaged reactor could be, uh, damaged during the fighting. Nuclear dust. Etc. That's what's being reported, anyway
