Let's set up a 'reception committee' for them, therefore! Iskander-wise as a payback for Storm Shadows into Sevastopol.
I can just imagine if Putin sent a brigade of T-90s, a squadron of Su-35s with KH-35s and all sorts of other PGMs and a couple of paratroop brigades to take part in an island-invasion exercise with the Argentinian military a few kilometers off of the Falkland Islands. Better yet, off an Ireland islet or Scotland! Then let's see how Britain handles it or blows its top off in a major hissy fit and goes crying to the UN. It's unbelievable the hypocrisy; rules for thee but not for me.

Not sure of your question? It states 14,000 trained for the SMO.
OK, freeze frame the start. What is the target? It looks like an sloping entrance to some kind of bunker complex?
It looks like the bomb may have landed a few meters too far to the right.
Looks like a HE Frag bomb to me which means hitting directly or nearby wont make much difference to the entrance of a tunnel or bunker, they might have been trying to destroy the ramp access.
It is rather more effective to use a penetrating bomb and hit that distance the other side of the entrance, but who knows what the goals were.
Perhaps it was a hey... we know this is here... maybe it is a US bio weapons lab bunker?
Clear indication that Kremlin made a final decision.
The alternative is Minsk 3 and we know how that turned out... unless you count the peace agreement where Russia withdrew from Kiev and Kiev reneged on the deal which would make the next peace deal Minsk 4.

14,000 trained since date. How many are they training now.

Brits are there for years. The only purpose of making it public is to get the population ready for black bags. Probably Russkie don't play games with them anymore, just beat the shit out of them.

A law on military registration of all women liable for military service has come into force in Ukraine.
The obligation applies to all Ukrainian women aged 18 to 60 years.
In most cases, girls liable for military service turn out to be physicians with qualifications of a doctor, dentist, obstetrician, nurse, pharmacist and pharmacist.
To the very last Ukrainian!

Medvedev’s quote from his TG Channel regarding incompetence in the West: "The number of idiot leaders in the NATO countries is growing.
One newly minted cretin - the British Secretary of Defense - decided to move English training courses for the Ukrainian soldiers to the territory of Ukraine itself. That is, turn his instructors into legal targets for our Armed Forces. Knowing full well that they will be mercilessly destroyed. And no longer as mercenaries, but precisely as British NATO specialists.
Another fool - the head of the German Defense Committee with an unpronounceable surname - demands that Taurus missiles be immediately supplied to the Khokhlobanderites so that the Kiev regime can strike at the Russian territory to weaken the supply of our army. They say this is in accordance with international law. Well, in this case, attacks on the German factories where these missiles are made will be fully consistent with international law.
Still, these idiots are actively pushing us towards WW3..."

Russia has modernized kamikaze drone "Geran-2" to protect against Ukrainian electronic warfare - Speaker of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Yuriy Ignat.
According to the enemy, the Geraniums, which are already difficult for air defense, have become an even greater problem, since even after entering and leaving the electronic warfare coverage area, the drone restores the signal.
Most likely, we are talking about small-sized noise-resistant receivers of the Comet satellite signal, which have recently begun to be installed on versions of Geraniums localized in Russia.
@Slavyangrad
American edition of The Drive: The Geranium drones were modernized and received a new warhead containing shrapnel that ejects tungsten submunitions.
In addition to new weapons, the drones received an airframe made of updated composite material filled with hard foam, and new antennas that reduce the threat of exposure to enemy electronic jamming systems. The drone's engine and battery have also been updated.
“ Russia can continue to attack Ukraine from the air beyond the front line without expending its existing short-range cruise and ballistic missiles ,” the publication says
Meanwhile in Iran possibly awaiting the sanction change on the 18th October is
Sprinter @Sprinter99800 The modified Shahed-136 drone will be powered by a turbojet engine.
It will fly much faster that way and quieter and won't buzz. Due to increased fuel consumption, the flight range may be reduced, but the warhead will carry more.
A big advantage of the new Shahed will be a reduced noise level, which will make it harder to detect and intercept them. In fact, Shahed kamikaze will transform into a small cruise missile.
Iran will have no problem arranging the delivery of new drones or the technologies for their production to Russia.
It is possible that the new Geraniums will be produced in the new factory in Tatarstan. The readiness of the workshops already exceeds 80%, and soon the first products will go to the SMO zone. 12:56 AM · Sep 30, 2023 · 10.1K Views

NATO states have tested all the red lines without any indication of a significant response. The announcement of British troops serving in Ukraine (no doubt they already are) will be the first of several, most likely.
Can they prevent Russia from winning the Battle for the Donbas and thus the war? Possibly. Time will tell.
Korobochka (コロボ) @cirnosad · 11h This makes decapitation a piece of cake. Hypersonic missiles can be used more effectively now that Su-34s can carry them. The Russians just need to keep many Su-34s in the skies doing regular missions. These Jets can stay in the air for 10hrs, meaning 24/7 coverage is achievable.

I suspect its probably a simple politics, running out of reasons to allocate dead bodies to. So the need a real reason that they can use.
Isn't it possible for Russia to create and harbor proxies, who could attack Nato in Ukraine? Maybe it is a risky idea, but it would make reciprocal actions much easier for Russia. Those Nato cowards are exploiting their diplomatically untouchable status in a completely reckless way.
Why send Ukrainian troops and British trainers to Ukraine ? Are they stupid ? No they are not ! Perhaps it is becoming increasingly difficult to hide these troops on military bases . Hiding 10,000 to 40,000 troops , without the locals noticing is difficult . Perhaps resistance is building within the UK , against further involvement in Ukraine war ? It must have been for a very good reason , that the British floated the idea ! Nothing frivolous . I have not seen an anti- war campaign , in the UK , in line with the CND protests in the past . But I think it a good idea , for the left-wing to start an information campaign , against supporting and training these Ukrainian Nazi troops on British soil ! Force them out and their trainers to Ukraine ! Where they will receive a gracious host ! A leaflet campaign , very easy .
As I said, for at least w few days, they have been using 30-40 pcs daily. Those are not drones taken out from the stock, but freshly made. And no, not all of them. Part is being stored for sure. This whining from the Canadian chief of staff lately was not for no reason.

From what I have observed so far terrain hugging cruise missiles like the Kh-101 has been the deciding factor and not supersonic and hypersonic cruise missiles like Onyx and Zircon.

Two different roles.
That's why they have both and produce mlre kh-101 than Oniks or kinzhal. Last two are for very well protected targets (like ships carrying strong AD systems or HQ protected by strong AD system on land).
Kh-101 is a very easy target once you have a radar lock on it like any subsonic cruise missile. But not all targets have patriots and shorads around them. But even then their low flying path makes them not that easy targets.

considering their launches of Geran, are they going to launch like 10,000 of them on kyiv when a major offensive starts? its not like they launch them everyday.
