Large if accurate.
I wonder if that is the same incident as the thermobaric 70 killed.

It would make sense if you have a large gathering in a building like that then it is probably being used for some sort of command post.

This is an extremely narrow-minded metaphor but if one must choose, then I'd rather pick the troons than Vodka Ivan. At least troons have the decency to ask if they can bugger you, even though they whine a lot.

Oh boy, the only difference is that the ruskies may not bugger your 5 year old son too.

No guarantee there. But for the troons the little boy is the sweetest prize.
 
Let's pretend that tomorrow Ukraine says "WE SURRENDER. WE'RE GOING TO BE LIKE THE FRENCH AND JUST GIVE UP!"

Russia wins this tiny portion of land. He wins Chernobyl, which is a radioactive deadzone.

What are his prizes?!?!
- Every country hates him
- His own allies hate him.
- The only 3 people who are neutral with him are Cuba and 2 other very minor countries.
- China said they didn't condone this stuff. They're out
- His own citizens despise him
- Everyone he would have "ruled over" has left. They have all sought refuge in other countries. He has no one to rule.
- His economy is in shambles
- His legacy is tarnished.
- LITERALLY EVERYTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG HAS GONE WRONG
- The world thinks he's a laughing stock because his big scary army got whipped and nae nae'd by ordinary civilians and a smaller army
- The ONLY REASON they surrendered is because Putin said "IF YOU GUYS DON'T STOP I'M GOING TO BLOW THE PLANET UP"

I don't think anyone thought less of Putin. Until he invaded Ukraine I always saw him as this intimidating man with a track record of badass achievements. But now? Dude's a disgrace. He just....This is like when Little Mac beats up Mike Tyson in a TAS speedrun. Everyone who's looking on at this is just like "Wait....This is the thing we were all afraid of?"
Some of the statements are wrong. His approval rating is pretty high in is own country and his standing up to globohomo now also gaining him points worldwide.

IT was a gamble but not really: he had to do it but it is too soon to tell.
 
Thank god I woke up early. Juicy footage dump incoming.

Soviets did the same. But hint, it wasn’t the Allies who agreed to co-invade Poland. There is a reason why the Poles are hardcore NATO converts.
Poles have hated Russians for much longer. They still remember, among other things, when some boytoy of Catherine the Great split their kingdom with the Germans the first go around.

Okay then, fair point. A plague on both troons and Ivans.

lol then stop getting assmad when people like me don't support your shity liberal countries.

You mistook disdain for anger.

Gazprom Paves Way to New China Gas Deal as Sanctions Hit Russia​

Gazprom PJSC took a new step toward potentially its biggest-ever natural gas supply deal with China as nations around the world sever economic and political ties with Russia over the country’s invasion of Ukraine.

The Russian gas giant signed a contract to design the Soyuz Vostok pipeline across Mongolia toward China, Gazprom said in a statement. If Russia reaches a new supply agreement with China, Soyuz Vostok will carry as much as 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year to the Asian nation.

A new supply deal with China would also enable Gazprom to build an interconnector between its west- and eastbound pipeline systems, effectively allowing Russia to redirect gas toward China from fields that now only feed Europe. That could ease Gazprom’s reliance on the European continent, currently the single-largest buyer of Russian gas.

The pipeline-design contract comes as the European Union and the U.S., joined by countries such as the U.K., Canada and Japan, put unprecedented pressure on Russia after President Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of neighboring Ukraine. Sweeping sanctions are limiting Russia’s ability to import key technology, tap foreign debt markets and even to access much of the $640 billion the country built up as a buffer to protect the economy.

While Russian energy exports remain unaffected at this stage of the war, Europe has been exploring options to wean itself off Gazprom’s deliveries.

Gazprom has been in talks to deliver gas to China via Mongolia for several years.

“Today, the design contract has been signed, this means that the project has moved to the stage of practical implementation,” Gazprom Chief Executive Officer Alexey Miller said of the Soyuz Vostok link. The statement didn’t give any details of progress on supply talks with China.

In 2014, Gazprom signed a 30-year, $400-billion deal to directly supply as much as 38 billion cubic meters of gas per year to China via the Power of Siberia gas link, where deliveries started in late 2019. In recent months, when Gazprom’s flows to Europe have been limited, shipments to China were regularly above daily contract volumes.

At the start of February, Russia reached a smaller gas deal with China for 25-year direct supplies of as much as 10 billion cubic meters per year from fields in the Far East.

Approval ratings are worth jack shit even in countries that won't arrest you for speaking out against the government. I wouldn't put much weight into that metric.

Given the water backdrop, that may be the other half of the confirmed kill from this morning. Everything else is a repost.
