Ukraine and the Russian invasion, 2022-24

If they hit it with an S-300 then they didn't target it because that's a surface-to-air system. They can fire it balistically in a certain direction and it might hit something on the ground when it expends its fuel and descends but they don't have any control over what it will hit.

Not true I'm afraid - S300 had a latent INS guided surface attack capability from build, and at least some have received an upgrade to be guided by the GLONASS GPS system.
 
If Russia is moving weapons such as nuclear weapon to Belarus, surely it going to get more complicated for them and potentially dangerous for the world if Putin decides enough is enough?
 
Moving weapons to Belarus will not stop them being monitored - they'll be just as easy to spot there as at home, and the transport moves will also be very visible to the eyes in the sky / near space.
 
  • Ukraine’s deputy minister of defence Hanna Maliar went on Facebook to urge Ukrainians to not openly discuss details about the country’s upcoming offensive. “On live broadcasts, don’t ask experts questions [in the vein of] ‘how is the counter-offensive going?’, don’t write blogs or posts on this topic, and don’t discuss military plans of our army publicly at all. We have one strategic plan – to liberate all our territories. And as for the details – that’s simply a military secret,” Maliar wrote.

It’s a double or triple bluff. Nice bit of propaganda/ psyops tho

Should have told the Yanks

 
Towns and villages across Russia are split over what to do with the "heroes" Wagner is sending back in boxes.

In the southwestern Rostov region, Roman Lazaruk, 32, was buried in February in the local “Alley of Heroes” after dying in the battle for Bakhmut. But his violent criminal record — he was convicted of burning his mother and sister to death in 2014 — outraged some local residents.

A former classmate of the sister was appalled that convicts were being buried in the area of the cemetery once reserved for soldiers from World War II. “What did this Lazaruk or other guys do?” she told a local online newspaper. “They killed, stole, stabbed, raped, went to jail and went out to continue killing. What kind of heroes are they?”

As the war continues into its second year and Western sanctions bite harder, Russia’s government revenue is being squeezed and its economy has shifted to a lower-growth trajectory, likely for the long term.

The country’s biggest exports, gas and oil, have lost major customers. Government finances are strained. The ruble is down over 20% since November against the dollar. The labor force has shrunk as young people are sent to the front or flee the country over fears of being drafted. Uncertainty has curbed business investment.

When will Zelensky resign for this?

Seems a bit dumb to be filing reports like that under their real name from within Russia.
