Ukraine

Canada has agreed to keep supply routes from Poland in to Ukraine open, middle finger with some maple syrup on it at Russia and their threat to disrupt supply shipments and routes. I think they have their hands full with more pressing logistical issues.
 
Video not confirmed yet based on geolocation, may be Russian TOS system.

Also some reports of a fertilizer facility, ammonium nitrate which you would want to keep out of hands.

That would make sense. It looks a lot like the ammonium Nitrate that blew up in that storage facility a little while ago.

That one in the middle east a few years back? If that's the case they'res going to be a lot of destruction around it. You could hear a bit of shockwave in the videos of the explosion in Ukraine earlier.

I agree with the community at this stage nuclear war is not on the table, including whatever long table Putin is sitting at tonight. NATO is however going to make this very difficult for him. Be a man, don’t overreact to an ass beating

Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting a nuclear collision.

They have had their issues for sure. I'm not certain they have employed all of the best men and equipment. And I'm guessing they would play differently if they were up against NATO.
 
The situation in the east for Ukrainian forces is getting pretty tenuous. Could see a complete collapse there sooner than later as Russia pushes on them from three directions, and could encircle them if Ukrainian units there don’t start pulling back soon.

Why does Russia get to enlist other countries for direct conflict but Ukraine cannot?

I’m curious how much quality Belarusian units actually are. I suspect they aren’t very good. They could just end up getting in the way if they’re not careful. Russia already seems to be having some resupply issues as it is.

Not much help. If Chechnyan fighters get involved with Russia however, they are some nasty dudes. We fought with them in Afghanistan. I have seen "propaganda" of them jumping in but no evidence I believe. If/when this gets to urban warfare in Kiev those A-Holes will be there. They are ruthless and fight to the death. There is no surrender in them.....
 
The irony of course of all this is that by invading Ukraine Putin has done the thing he was trying to stop and unified Europe and NATO......not to long ago there was talk of NATO disbanding or that the US would leave it etc....and that it was a useless entity.....the actions of Putin has illustrated more than ever the need for NATO but it also has shown how effective NATO can be when faced with a legitimate real threat...

As for nukes, I dont think they will, using limited tactical nukes would instantly get NATO and other nations involved, so if Putin test the water with a few of those the results would be widespread and immediate attacks by all of NATO on western Russia with non nuclear attacks meant to limit his ability to further carry out those kind of attacks.....of course this is a very very slippery slope which is why hopefully those around Putin in charge of the military will borrow a line from the Snake Island guys and tell Putin to go ---- himself if he orders such a attack.

Note the spacing of armor in an urban environment, Ukraine learned a lot from western doctrine. Most we don’t see or will never know, but the result of pretty clear at this very early stage.
