Ukrainians show off their night time combat capabilities. Russians were hiding in a bunker or trench, and the Ukrainian assaulted their position. First they used grenades to drive them out, then picked off escaping Russians one by one. One Russian managed to get away by faking being hit, then crawled away from the fight.

Russians are murderers and occupants.
This is kind of a weird phrasing. Just awkward, or is there some specific reason for using âoccupantsâ like this? âOccupiersâ would be more natural, but still hardly having the impact of âmurderersâ.
He was on the receiving end of an assassination attempt and heâs probably massive anti-Russian. Weâd have to ask him for more clarity.
Plus, English second language and/or translation?

This is the guy who flipped out on Musk for suggesting a peace deal, I think.
Maybe itâs just auto-correct.
Russian forces were busy looting museums in Kherson after withdraw was announced. Judging by how many men and weapons theyâve left behind, perhaps they should have prioritized military equipment over loot as they leave.

Soon to be replaced with cardboard cut-outs that look convincing from a distance, one presumes.

Judges in the Hague ruled on Thursday that the Russians Igor Girkin and Sergey Dubinskiy and the Ukraine national Leonid Kharchenko caused a missile attack on 17 July 2014.
On 17 November 2022, the court handed down life sentences to three defendants, Igor Girkin, Sergey Dubinskiy and Leonid Kharchenko for the murder of 298 passengers and crew. A fourth defendant, Oleg Pulatov, was acquitted on grounds of insufficient involvement in the incident. The presiding judge, Hendrik Steenhuis, said the court had concluded that MH17 was shot down by a Russian-made BUK missile launched from an agricultural field in eastern Ukraine, citing extensive evidence that did not leave âany possibility for reasonable doubt whatsoeverâ and that Russia had overall control of the separatist forces in eastern Ukraine when the plane was shot down.

Thatâs not a bad way to help out. Send investigators to identify Russian war crimes.

Perhaps send Chinese police in to investigate alleged Ukrainian war crimes to level things up.
A military man rather than a politician speaks some sense.

You can invite the PLA over to guard Russian territories while you are at it, that way you can send all Russian troops into Ukraine.
