MOSCOW, October 19. /TASS/. Martial law has been introduced in Russia’s four new regions, President Vladimir Putin told the Security Council on Wednesday.

According to the presidential decree, martial law is introduced in the Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics, and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions from October 20. The maximum response level is in effect there.

Russia’s regions bordering Ukraine will observe a medium level of response, other regions of the Central and Southern federal districts - a level of higher readiness, and the other regions of Russia - the basic one.

TASS has summarized the gist of what was said at the Security Council’s meeting and of the adopted decrees.

I’m very surprised this wasn’t the case from the beginning. The numbers of now oppressed ethnic Uke residents, the infiltration of Uke forces, etc. make this a mandatory move. A harbinger of more death and destruction.

Declaring martial law in regions that are already at war? He’s just acknowledging what’s happening on the ground.

I hear the Russians are due to supply the Ukrainians with a massive amount of equipment this week in the Kherson region.

Perhaps this is a prelude to some internal crackdown in all areas mentioned.

“Liberation,” Kremlin style.

Monkey Werx seems to be suggesting we might have our own martial law enacted here in the US right after the midterm elections.

I’ve come to realization that we are all at risk of the midnight FBI goon raid.

The Nazi dictator Putin declares martial law in the areas his military occupied and where a war is still being fought?

It makes no sense to me. I assume it’s just the prelude to a more intensive eradication effort for the undesirable elements left in the territories.

The US is a pretty big place. And there aren’t a lot of “martial forces” to enact military control.

Doom porn sounds like it makes sense. Practical application is another thing.

It is because he is losing those areas.
