Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

It's been difficult to watch since it began but some of the scenes from today are the most heartbreaking yet. Those poor kids.
It’s even worse on the Ukrainian news Twitter feeds. We’re being spared over here. I wish I hadn’t looked. The place is wrecked.

Going to be a long haul back for the people there. Assuming they stay free even, some of the things they will have seen man.

And the relationship with Russia? Good luck with that. Can you even imagine it.
 
Russians claim to have found evidence of NATO support on the ground in Ukraine. Probably complete bollocks but Putin may use this to claim outside interference.

Looks like compelling evidence that šŸ˜‚

A random old laptop and a bunch of documents with NATO written on them but which otherwise look like the least likely things that NATO governments would produce. 1970s style Soviet stationery.

Nobody can comment and she is hardcore Russian :lol:
 
Comes across as genuine to me. What is quite interesting is that these 3 on particular look to have been drafted in from Novokuznetsk which is central Russia, not far from the Mongolian border.

How much would these guys know of the situation in Ukraine before leaving for seemingly harmless drills. They're then told stories from command of Nazi's having taken control, with no real way of fact checking this when phones are removed etc.

It's easy to say we wouldn't fall for this type of thing, but put yourself in their shoes, at what can they get off? Before they know it they're on a frontline being shot at.
A Russian mate of mine was on Facebook the other day putting up a post saying нет войне (No to the war). His Dad came on to say along the lines of Русские не Š½Š°Ń‡ŠøŠ½Š°ŃŽŃ‚ войны,Ń€ŃƒŃŃŠŗŠøŠµ ŠøŃ… Š·Š°ŠŗŠ°Š½Ń‡ŠøŠ²Š°ŃŽŃ‚ в столицах побежГенных! Basically ā€œRussians don’t start wars, they end them in the capitals of the defeatedā€. The son then calmly explained that it was Russia who were the aggressors, it wouldn’t end well, and it’s the younger generation are the ones who will expose the truth via social media.

The older Russians won’t be going out of their way to find out anything other than what they’ve had drummed into them their whole lives, Russia is the strong country, alone who have been constantly attacked but will stand against the world.

Leave her alone man.....she's providing us with embarrassingly shit propaganda, which is never less than hilarious.
 
However there is . OVD-Info, an independent protest monitoring group, said it had documented the detention of at least 4,366 people in .
 
Anyone else find it odd when new members join up and post about one issue?

ā€œThis week I’m going to join a SAFC forum to discuss the war in Ukraineā€.
