Surprised the guard could use Facebook. But if Putin is THAT paranoid, might as well go YOLO and flee for your life.

I'd never leave the house again. And the dude's family is just waiting to be the 'random' victims of a 'mugging involving windows'.

Apparently the big Ukrainian advance into Opytne was due to that friendly fire incident that's making the rounds where the Russians called in artillery strikes on their own retreating soldiers. Those strikes caused over 60 casualties and a collapse of the entire front line north of Opytne. The Ukrainians exploited this as a happy little accident and entered the town where fighting is still ongoing as of the last known updates.

They're also increasing pressure on the southern flank of the Avdiivka front pushing towards the town of Pisky. If they eliminate that flank they'll have destroyed a year's worth of Russian progress and will be on, or very close to territory Russians have occupied since 2015.

The Ukrainians are being very smart with the counteroffensive, and the overall defense of Ukraine in general. It's very dynamic and they're hitting areas all along the entire front wherever they're needed. To me this shows that they have a really good logistical network and freedom of movement along the entire frontline which allows them to keep it dynamic and not focus too much on one area.

This attack into Opytne, the ongoing efforts around Bakhmut where they're still making slow but steady progress towards very important Russian strong points, and the defense of the Kupiansk-Kremmina front where they've absorbed what was supposed to be a major Russian offensive with minimal loss of territory, and of course the ongoing counteroffensive towards Tokmak (and ultimately the Azov coast) is proof to me that the counteroffensive, and the defense of Ukraine as a whole, is nowhere near slowing down.

Those Barrier Troops must be working overtime.

That's apparently from north of Bakhmut in July and they appear to have used thermobaric shells there too and the same exact justification as they just did in Opytne, that they thought the retreating soldiers were advancing Ukrainians, so this was definitely no accident. Barrier troops 100%.

I don't want to be too conspiratorial or diminish how awful he is, but I feel like he wants people to be talking about this. The biography released and these posts aren't being pushed down, for some reason he wants everyone to think he's deliberately sabotaging Ukraine (again, not saying that he isn't). What's his angle?

he's drawing an alarming amount of attention to the fact that one guy can disconnect an entire country from the internet/a war whenever he wants to

for all we know he's building space lasers while MTG tries to make that sound as ridiculous as possible

Well nice to see he admits to ransom. Shame he can't admit that he had a hand in civilians getting bombed.

At least it'll get his fingers out of it.
