Russia getting a taste of its own medicine. Perhaps Belgorod will be liberated soon?

Zelensky turning upo the volume to get Nato fully involved in a war with Russia - he covets that above all things.

The west continues to provoke WWIII.

This won’t end well for many nations.

Deaths will be distributed across the forces of many nations - and into many countries.

Europe will be the biggest loser, followed by the USA, as the acceleration of the SCO results.

Or Russia goes from a SMO to a full declaration of war.

You do realize only 10% of the Russian military is involved with thr SMO?

And, right until recently, the infrastructure of da Ukraine has remained untouched?

No source shovels out BS like the British.

Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for September 18, 2022

- Ukrainian offensives in Kherson and Kharkov have both ground to a halt;

- Near Kherson, a Russian strike on a dam up-river of the Ingulets has flooded crossings, isolating Ukrainian bridgeheads east of the river;

- Ukrainian forces have been fighting for days attempting to take eastern Kopiansk with no success as Russian reinforcements arrive;

- Potential Ukrainian offensives elsewhere are still a possibility;

- Winter fighting may see Russian military aviation given the advantage as Ukrainian forces' ability to hide in forests diminishes;

- The US is sending fewer and fewer weapons and ammunition to Ukraine;

Won’t be surprised to see sabotage inside Moscow and St. Petersburg... elsewhere.

They are only firing weapons that were donated by the Russians so in a way they’re just sending the weapons back to Russia with love

Its coming—the Big War. The thundering of the Four Horsemen is heard in the distance. America isn’t ready for this. We think its all video games ands just another TV show—but real war is a very terrible thing. Wail until you see illegals flooding out of the country due to radiation from glowing cities, American Liberals fleeing to neutral Canada. This will be “Limited” Nuke war—still 23 Million Americans will die. Only cities that will NOT be hit? Moscow and Washington DC (Russia/China has too many friends there). I really hope I am wrong—I hope my tea leaves are incorrect. I know what seems like we are heading into a dark tunnel.

“The west continues to provoke WWIII.”

Imagine how different everything could have been there if Russia had not invaded in 2014 or 2022?

the messy war that Russian President Vladimir Putin started is now being fought directly on his doorstep, with artillery strikes hitting military targets in Russia and Russian officials in cities and towns along the border

OK, but I'd hardly call that his doorstep. Looks to be about 250 miles from Moscow.
