It's all getting really grim.
Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion

This translator on Sky News sounds like she's struggling
The tennis player?
Meh, might as well get some fame.
any source for ukranian casualties for some comparison? Without their counterpart, these numbers are nothing I could understand.
It means bear, so there's a good few of them.
Sky may need to evacuate their reporters from Russia after what happened just now in the press conference. Zakharova is livid.
I reckon all the facts will come out later. Both sides want to inflate their own success and minimize losses.
edit: I have just seen the mods’ note at the bottom of the page. Removed the actual footage now.
This Twitter account: knowjjkom has posted graphic footage of a civilian family who were allegedly all shot dead by other civilians who mistook their family Jeep for Russian military

What happened ?
This morning, they reported 137 including civilians. Not aware of any updates since then.
Unsurprisingly Eastern European countries are braver than our "superpowers". It's unfortunate but has always been like that, nothing new.
This Maria Zakharova talking on sky news...jesus christ. Literally just raw anger.
If this is what Russian politics is made of...

Exactly, but I assumed both sides are maybe equally inflating/deflating numbers so the truth might lie somewhere in between.
That's awful. I guess stuff like this might happen when you arm civilians with little to no training/experience with weapons
I said this would happen last night, that the big superpowers would be cowardly and it'll be smaller nations doing more to help.

Ffs, this was an option all along? Estonia of all countries doing this is flipping amazing. Well done. Send more arms to help them protect themselves. Let Russia see what they are going to face and win time. Each and every day passing is time won for Ukraine, time lost for Putin.
We'd have an army of posters blaming netflix and claiming the assasin only did it because Putin was thinking about signing up. Sorry, bleak times call for bleak humor
On a more serious note I don't think the system that produced him would produce anyone all too dissimiliar without changing first.
so approximately 94% of tanks still active
approximately 98% of AV's still active
over 99.5% of troops still alive
and over 99.5% of helicopters still active
yeah I think its time to surrender and focus on a resistance as im sure those figures look a lot worse for Ukraine
I mean, that's disturbing on every level known to man. Taking out military targets is one thing, but shooting unarmed civilians, tanks running over cars, bombing orphanages and public housing estates is entirely another.
If these actions continue - and they very likely will - NATO will be forced to intervene as they are war crimes.
What was this?
UK and many others are supplying munitions and medical supplies to Ukraine and have been doing for the last few months
Sorry if already posted
BBC: Russia bans British airlines from its airspace
This is actually huge for UK airlines, dozens of routes rely on Russian airspace, this move cuts off usual paths to parts of Asia and Oceana. Alternatives in many cases will be found, but Russia's sheer size makes 'going around it' totally unfeasible for certain destinations.

They've also seemingly sent in a lot of their older kit. I've not really seen any T-90's, a lot appear to be T-80 variants they've deployed into Ukraine.
Good. Let it continue. At least they will arms to fight back.
Dominic Waghorn asked the Russian Foreign Minister Spokeswoman what she thought of a UK minister's comments that Putin had gone 'full tonto' and she exploded in a 10 minute rant. It was a moronic question for the Sky News journalist to ask in such a situation.
One of the things she said in the rant was: "You are not journalists and you are not people" and that the same could be said of our PM about going tonto.

Estonia are afraid they might be next?
Obviously Putin isn't going to commit anywhere near the full Russian forces to this.
I'm fine with that in all honesty, this should not be legitimised by journalists treating it as anything but what it is.
