Feels like an act of war, but fuck if I know what that is anymore.

North Korean troops have clashed with Ukrainian troops.

11K NK troops are assisting Russia in Ukraine...just in case you couldn't figure out who the bad guys are...

Also mentioned is how Putin is open to talking with Trump.

I would have allowed it.

Russian ballerina dies after falling from a building.

Someone might want to check his social media and see if he said anything negative about Putin.

Biden tells Ukraine to use long range US missiles to hit Russia.

Russia calls this an act of war.

If I were Ukraine I would send an entire hundreds-of-missiles barrage at the Kremlin. Way overkill, but as long as a few get through and it gets flattened, it's a massive symbolic victory and Russia won't be able to hide that defeat from their populace.

Whatever the Russian equivalent of OSHA is...well, they're doing an exceptionally bad job.

Now that Biden has OKed this, he should consider only staying on ground floors.

Ukraine is claiming Russia used an ICBM on them. Russia says it was a ballistic missile, but not an ICBM.

If it wasn't a nuke, I'm honestly not sure why this is headline news?

Isn't an ICBM just a BM that goes farther?

That was funny.

But we're talking about the press. Their "23% accurate" description especially applies to all things military, when they think every semi-automatic rifle is an AK-47 assault machine gun that people dont even need for hunting.

So, to them ICBM = OMG NUKES???

If I am in the Snowpiercer taking a shit, and we cross the line between Europe and Asia, is that an ICBM?

I'm not even sure I like calling those two places different continents. I don't think I care they're different tectonic plates, it's one big land mass.

First time a MIRV has been used in combat. A message for sure.

Trump says Russia agrees to 'immediately' begin negotiations to end war in Ukraine
'We agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other’s Nations,' Trump says
The prospect of Ukraine returning to its pre-2014 borders is “an unrealistic objective,” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said.
Russia wins.

Let's let the agreement come together before we declare a victor, but all the experts have never wavered from their "Russia ultimately wins this war" prediction. This just speeds things up.
