Ukraine: Unsubstantiated rumours and speculation

[DaveCinzano]

This could be an indication of things to come under Russian occupation - assuming it's true.

Probably something completely mundane like chasing up unpaid library fines or something

 

[DaveCinzano]

Doing a retails-at-lower-price-than-cost 12" of Putin's best war speeches is an imaginative way of trying to break the back of the Kremlin

Just as well. It’d have been the end for the Ukrainians otherwise…

I'd really like this to be true.

No idea whether true or not.

commentary "looters being taped and tied to lamposts"

fair enough, if true.

This is the point where you check whether it's true or not, rather than sharing it. Isn't it?

Edit: whoops sorry, wrong thread - this is the made up shit off twitter thread. Difficult to tell the difference sometimes. As you were.

Think this belongs here. If it's shopped, it's a better class of shopping than before.

I watched this film last night.

Putin's Palace (film) - Wikipedia

It was extremely convincing . I’m not asking whether Navalny is a saint but does anyone know whether there’s good reason to doubt the info in that film?

The Ghost of Kiev.


There is, understandably, some doubts as to whether he is real or myth. What is claimed is such, that when the dust is settled will defo be looked at.


However....


13 secs in. IMO if its anyone. Thats him. AND I think I could name the other MiG 29 pilot

I'm also hearing stories from a Ukrainian friend of looters being shot... All hearsay, but believable

Sounds harsh though, to survive in war you need to take what you can sometimes. Though I would hope the angry mob can distinguish between someone helping themselves to electricals and stuff taken to survive like food etc.

[zahir]

This suggests that it's true. Though maybe it should be seen as unconfirmed for now.
