Evil weapons them. Made with little oxidizer so it pulls it from the surrounding atmosphere. Can rupture lungs of those in the blast radius

One thing that's struck me is how little we've seen of Ukranian tanks, AFVs, APCs, missile carriers etc which they supposedly have / had quite a few of. Most of the videos have been of small groups of soldiers popping off NLAWs and so on.

Have they lost all this equipment in the invasion by Russia, has it been pulled back into the cities for defensive purposes? Not suggesting there's anything nefarious going on but it's a bit odd.

They aren’t really fighting much. They’re in Kiev and Karkiv ready for the battle.
 
I have to say, I've been impressed by the quality of posts on this thread over the last 7 days or so. Some well thought and considered opinions put across in a respectful manner.

It's also become my go to area for updates throughout the day. Far quicker than the BBC. Can't remember what it was today, but there was a piece on the BBC that was reported as just breaking that I had learnt about an hour earlier on here. Appreciate they need to go through checks and ensure the reliability of the source, but it still made me smile.

They are not allowed and someone will be prosecuted for war crimes if it is.

I imagine Putin will blame someone else for it when the charges are being looked into.

Putin will never face charges on way or the other.

As others have said. I hope he is dead, wishful thinking I know

Today feels like a pivotal moment that things really turn on Putin, maybe I'm reading too much into it?

I think he's still fully in control and knows exactly what he's doing. The crunch will come when the ultimatum is given to Kyiv and they say "go fuck yourself". That's going to be the pivotal point in this war, where the casualties go from dozens to thousands.
