    My understanding is that it is only an optical effect seen by that angle.

    The white smoke which is in the center is coming from the aircrafts which are flying above the others, so it may look closer when seen by that angle.

    Other pictures and video show that it was the classical french flag if seen from the front.

    Russian troops eliminated “the best sniper in France”

    As a result of a missile attack on the location of foreign mercenaries in Kharkov, Ernesto Barbieri, considered the best sniper in France, was killed.

    Barbieri served in the elite Alpine Jaeger battalion, and later joined the so-called “Foreign Legion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces”.

    As part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the officer has participated in combat operations against Russian troops since March 2022.

    The Russian Foreign Ministry expressed a protest to the French Ambassador over the participation of French military personnel in battles against Russian troops.

    So he was a traitor fighting for the descendants of the people which are pillaging Italy since the fourth century before Christ (since when Brennus's Gauls sacked Rome).
    Now the Gauls are still pillaging Italy, albeit with economic means or via their assets like former PM Letta.

    Unfortunately he was not the first nor the last Italian who is fighting against Italian interests...(All our political elite is like that as well).

    So Poland has started sending people back, assuming the other EU countries will follow, Ukraine is about to get a massive boost in manpower, granted how many of them will try to surrender remains to be seen but still its a big development.

    if I was the russians I would start blasting all across social media and everywhere I can "hey you one of those guys they forcing back? well find your way to our lines and we will accept your surrender and not send you back"

    Won't even try to guess what sort of retarded sources you follow to keep them feeding you with desired shit.
    Polish law does not even allow this.
    Ukrainian principal constitutional law does not allow that either Laughing
    Is there any serious source of your retarded entry, other than our retarded "minister" who is known to have issues with finding his own ass, even if a torchlight was stuck into it? Turned on?

    By the way, you both would get a match on Tinder - keep that under consideration!

    In your case, on line translation won;t help, as too many words are there - but some will find it interesting.

    Legal issues of sending UkroSPAM back.

    i usually try to refrain nowadays from calling out stupidity.

    But are you for real?.

    In Europe here we got laws that are not to be misinterpreted that prohibit sending refugees back to active warzones.
    They challenge the eviction and it is pretty much an automatic win for them.
    It always was, and it always will be.

    No matter how much Zelensky screams for new cannon fodder.
    how exactly do you think the world works?.

    Also, a part of them fled to the EU because they made the conscious decision for their family's instead of the State of Bandera.
    Little Nazi Harry potter Kuleba can paint them all as traitors as all he wants.
    But you can never fault a man for choosing to take care of his fammily and flee instead of waging an unwinnable war for an corrupt Nazi regime back home.

    And the Russians always have kept an open channel for surrendering on the battlefield.
    it is 149.200 callsign Volga.

    That´s why those Syrians and Iraqis were send to the EU in 2015.

    Well de west raises stakes all the time, I wouldn't be surprised if they would find a "flexible interpretation" of law to deport Ukrainians back. Same as with stolen Russia's money.


    @Airbornewolf - AFAIK its not trivial for Ukrainians to call Volga - nationalists often shoot in their backs or haut with drones. Not to mention that during Dnieper landings Ukro infantry radios had fixed frequencies so you cannot call Volga.

    They are already broadcasting this to anyone who will listen... the problem for the conscripted Ukrainians is that if they try to surrender they will just get bullets in their backs or droned by their own side.

    As mentioned above I rather doubt any EU country will send Ukrainians to such a fate... except the rabid ones like the Baltic states...

    Funny how they are being punished again for picking the wrong side... again... all the nazis rhetoric should have made them realise which was the right side... if you have nazis agreeing with you then maybe you are on the wrong side.

    Cowards make poor soldiers.

    They do, but I wouldn't call them all cowards. Not everyone has it in them to be killers, and being a killer does not mean you are not a coward.

    Sitting in a big 70 ton western tank they might think they are invincible, but if you have to jump out of it every 4-6 hours to clean the filters or the engine breaks and cannot be fixed in the country you are operating it in then you wonder what fucking idiots designed a tank like that... especially when your own country, when it was a region of a country managed to make a gas turbine powered tank that does not need such work done...

    Back from a long absence due to surgery and work

    Sadly, there are no more reports from the Spanish officer that kept my blog going, he's seriously ill and probably not long for this world

    I began writing again, here's the first part of a long commentary on forces

    "According to incoming information, during night strikes the Russian Armed Forces destroyed the bridge across the Seversky Donets near Stary Saltov in the Kharkov region.

    Meanwhile, artillery and MLRS strikes continue. Ukrainian sources report that a “new year of 22” is happening at the border."

    Has anyone noticed the number of rockets? Shocked
    I have spotted more than 50 each.
    It looks like coming from one launcher, which would mean they are using Cheburashka ??
