Russia v Ukraine - WWIII or Putin's cliff dive?

Apparently a Russian suicide drone strayed into Poland and crash landed on the edge of the border village of Dorohusk.

Interesting to see what will happen if this shit continues. May be more potential for no-fly zones

So in today’s episode of Russia rattling their nuclear sabre.

Russia warns the United States of the risks of World War Three | Reuters

Ukraine’s F-16s have scored their first air-to-air kills over the last 24 hours helping to shoot down Russian missiles.

Looks like until they receive their entire allotment they’re mostly going to be used in air defence roles. Once they have a whole fleet up and running we might see them on a more offensive footing.

WW3? You say?

Reports have just come out that Ukraine just lost their first F-16 jet during Russias barrage of missile strikes.

Ukraine are saying the Jet crashed due to a malfunction whilst it was intercepting missiles, Russia is claiming they shot it down.

Either way, its a big loss for Ukraine as they’ve only just had them in service a few weeks.

Saw that this morning. The biggest loss is the pilot to be fair. Apparently he was one of their most experienced pilots

Also Byelorussia shot down a Russian drone after it crossed into their airspace

So apparently the head of the Ukranian Air Force has been sacked amid speculation that the F16 was shot down by friendly fire…

Ukraine has hit a major refinery in the heart of Moscow over the weekend. Russia claiming to have shot down 158 UAVs overnight, although they REALLY must be the unluckiest country in the world when it comes to shooting down the drones. They debris seems to be continuing on over a few kilometres and hitting refineries, power stations and airports. So unlucky…

In stranger news, there’s unconfirmed reports from a number of sources that Lavrov, the Russian Foreign Minister, has died

Have they found any broken windows in high places lately?

Seriously though, I haven’t seen anything on the major reputable news sources yet.

It’s 100% conjecture. Apparently started on Telegram, but picked up by the Ukrainian rep to the UN. I mean he’s very much toed the party line, so more likely he’s died of natural causes or by doing something stupid. He wasn’t exactly the healthiest looking individual

Ukraine have deployed a new weapon on drones which they’re using to clear out trenchlines. It’s essentially a flame thrower on the drone, but instead of fire/napalm, it’s molten thermite.

And it’s not yet on the prohibited weapons list.

I saw the video of that one. It’s mental!

Apparently Putin is in Mongolia to discuss trade contracts.

A call has been put out for Mongolian authorities to arrest him under the international arrest warrant that’s out for him.

Would be amazing if they did, however I don’t think they will. I wonder if some Ukranian Special Forces are currently holidaying in Ulaanbaator and will “arrange a meeting” with him.

Come on Mongolia, it’s time to reclaim your power.

They’re always waiting!
