This must be a remarkable thing. I would have thought it would be fairly unremarkable considering the countries are at war.

Wow. One plane shot down. Imagine, for a moment, if we had this level of coverage during ww2.

How much did it cost the U.S. taxpayers and do all of us get a medal?

You never tire of propagandizing for the communist Dems do you?

You are pathetic, go away.

The aircraft was shot down by anti-aircraft guns from the 110th Separate Mechanized Brigade...

Probably AA guns like the one at the top of this photo:

WEll done Ukes! ( US Army Air Defense Artillery Officer) My whole career was what we call Short Range Air Defense Artillery or SHORAD. We worked first with Redeye misslies and then Stinger. It is great to see this sort of success from my brothers in ADA!

I don't know if the story is true because it's from the Ministry of Defense in the Ukraine, and they've been lying to the world so much. It could be true, but ultimately it doesn't matter.

The Ukraine is losing the war and Zelensky is now open to negotiating with Russia. Russia has previously said it will no longer negotiate with Zelensky as Z's term in office expired and Z cancelled elections; Putin has said Z is not the legitimate leader of the Ukraine.

My notes on a few key portions of the article "War in Ukraine: Zelensky wants Russia to take part in a new peace summit"

I'm posting a few notes about an article in Le Monde, because the French publication does not permit partial reproduction of an article.

Title:

Date: July 17, 2024

Written by: Emmanuel Grynszpan

https://www.lemonde.fr/en/international/article/2024/07/17/war-in-ukraine-zelensky-wants-russia-to-take-part-in-a-new-peace-summit_6687222_4.html

1. Zelensky has opened the door to direct negotiations with Moscow without making the departure of Russian occupying forces a pre-condition.

2. The first peace summit since talks broke down in Spring of 2022 included 100 countries meeting in Switzerland. Russia was not invited. That summit ended with a timid declarations, which did not include an appeal to Russia to halt its invasion, was signed by 80 countries.

3. Zelensky outlined a new plan on Monday which does not include talk of a ceasefire but identifies three areas of work: Energy security, Black Sea shipping (re Ukrainian exports), and prisoner exchanges.

Maybe the Luftwaffe got this excited as Russians were outside of Berlin?
