Numbers don’t matter that much in this case.

What matters is this was US provided missiles that landed on Russian soil. That was a first and why the death toll was so high.

But more importantly it represents a serious escalation in US involvement, both real and perceived, which may or may not be a good thing.

Alex Christoforou was pointing out that the Russian readouts deliberatly referred to missiles as "US-supplied", which is apparently not a good thing in their view.

On a related topic, I just finished season three of Jack Ryan. I think it was the best one by far. It came across as true Tom Clancy territory.

Makeevka isn’t on Russian soil.

In its strongest show of support for Ukraine since Moscow’s February 24 invasion, the U.N. General Assembly voted 143-5, adopting a resolution condemning and rejecting Russia's move to annex Ukrainian territory. Thirty-five countries abstained, but those votes do not count toward the two-thirds majority needed for adoption.

Voting with Russia were Belarus, North Korea, Syria and Nicaragua.

Which one of those countries are you posting from?
