This is likely just a byproduct of Russia's military That continues to show in this war. It has not advanced beyond the stereotypes over 50 years ago. They basically have a lot of artillery and bodies for the meat grinder. If you don't have significant air assets with guided bombs and things like that, you're going to be stuck. Just shelling large areas. Even with sophisticated drones and checks and balances before opening fire, we still managed to put bombs on Afghan weddings. We still manage to accidentally hit adjacent buildings instead of the target. If you back up the technology decades There becomes a much higher amount of civilian deaths.
Russia is going to raze this country in ways we haven't seen in decades unless they're stopped or some other resolution comes.

I don't think Russia cares very much about civilian deaths at the top leadership level, but I also don't think that this is very intentional.

It was a bloody good aim for a miss.

And it is common for him to target hospitals.

It’s when your country was already in the development program from day one and committed to buying the plane with an order filed but then JT comes in, cancels it for political points and then spends the next 7 years holding a fake procurement process because it’s the best plane for your needs but you don’t wanna admit it.

March 9 (Reuters) - Russia will achieve its goal of ensuring Ukraine's neutral status and would prefer to do that through talks, Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.

Moscow's aims do not include overthrowing the Kyiv government and it hopes to achieve more significant progress in the next round of talks with Ukraine, Zakharova told a briefing, adding that Russia's military operation was going strictly in line with its plan.



These guys can’t be serious.

Well if it gets the cunts out of Ukraine.... The west rebuilds Ukraine. All sanctions remain. A new gas pipe is built.

I can see a win out of that.

Russian gamers are out of luck, Sony have stopped slaes of Playstations and any hardware in Russia, and Russians will be unable to access the Play Store. Apparently Playstation makes up the vast majority of the console sales in Russia, maybe 70 million gamers affected.

Apparently the Russian state media is telling Russians that they have all but finished the "special military operation" in Ukraine:


Trevor Reed — a former US Marine who has been held in Russia since 2019 after being convicted in an alleged drunken incident — told his parents that new programs on the televisions in Russian prison claim that Ukraine is "all but conquered."

His parents, Joey and Paula Reed, recounted the conversation in an interview on CNN New Day Wednesday.

"He is telling us what they are hearing there in the barracks from Russian TV. There's a TV somewhere where they're getting information. They're getting a completely different story," Joey told Brianna Keilar.

"In fact, when he called Monday, the news they're getting was that Ukraine was all but conquered, that Russia had covered most of Ukraine already," he said.

When his parents filled him in on what is actually going on — a weeks-long Russian invasion that has killed over 1,000 civilians so far, according to UN estimates — Trevor said, "Oh, wow, that's not at all what we're hearing here."

Yep, agreed. Interesting to hear what the Russians are being told though.
There's a man in Ukraine who is from Russia making the news rounds today. He tried to call
and tell his father that he was being bombed and his father in Russia refused to believe him and
said Putin was not bombing Ukraine but saving them
