I hope they do, but that proxy state isn't going to last much longer than Afghanistan.

Ukrainian side soon posted pictures from the ground to show that Russians hit agricultural warehouse. Their cleanup crews might have missed a detail or two though
In general, warehouses seem to rather unhealthy buildings in these times
That is according Ukrainian propaganda, according to Russian propaganda it is exactly the opposite.
Polish T-72M1 Tanks Spotted in Ukraine.
Russia has apparently launched over two thousand missiles since the War began, an average of around thirty a day according to US Officials.
Ukrainian Artillery Fire Strikes and Hits an Ammunition Location, Causing a Cookoff. Apparently there's an Anti-Tank Gun nearby which is neat.
Ukrainian Forces Claim to Have Destroyed Several Armored Vehicles, including two Russian tanks but the highlight of this video is a TOS-1A Cooking off Its FLAME AMMO after being Damaged by Ukrainian Fire.
Ukrainian Forces in Mariupol at some point were able to get an old T-64A working for a bit and attempted to Use it Before it Broke Down. The Tank Apparently Came From an Azovstal Monument.

More details emerging on the Snake Island Strikes.
Those Bayraktar Drones seemed to be enforcing a Blockade of the Island, damaging or destroying two Russian Raptor Patrol Boats in the Area.
And footage of the Strikes Against Russia's Air Defences on the Island as Well.
OSINT Account speculating on the feasibility of retaking the Island in an eleven post thread.

Rob Lee Speculating on How Effective Russia's Reserves and Conscripts would Actually be in this Conflict. Doesn't seem to be a positive assessment.
Another Aid Package for Ukraine Coming from Britain. More support equipment this time though.
According to US Officials Ukrainian troops are being trained on Operating the new Howitzers and Phoenix Ghost Drones.
Two Turkish Airbus Jets have been hanging out in a Kyiv Airport since the War Began. Originally speculated to be there to whisk out Zelensky if he wanted to flee the area, they've apparently remained there for whatever reason.

And why would they need A400 to haul Zelensky out of Kiev? It's not like he is a heavy cargo, there are safer ways for him to escape Kiev. The most likely reason the aircraft are still there is due to risk of being shot down if they take flight.
Pilots probably left by car so it'd be immaterial either way since it's probably not takeoff ready anymore.
And using military transport planes to evacuate large numbers of people is normal. Zelensky likely wouldn't if been the only one in the government needing evacuation if Kyiv fell. Chief Executive Planes tend to be filled with dozens of people anyways in normal government business flights.
FWIW the Turks state it was to evacuate their own citizens.

Why do the US put the President in a 747, instead of hauling him around in the second seat of an F-22 trainer? The risk of an identified internationally flagged flight being shot down, in a situation where they could communicate ahead of time, ought to be practically zero. Even allowing for slippage with shitty Russian forces, or paranoia leading to them shooting anything that moves in case it's a trick, the Turkish government (of all NATO partners) could probably fly them back in relative safety if they wanted to.

The officer could not be reached for comment, but has previously denied any wrongdoing and alleged the complaint against him was intended to sow doubt in his ability to lead.

Allegedly mentioned to be captured. Could be just a cover story.

Because for the duration of flight the aircraft is his presidential office and his presidential suite, one of the important missions of the Air Force One is to showcase the prestige of the President of the USA. When you try to sneak a high value target out danger zone the requirements are a bit different, a non descript car is an infinitely safer choice.
Nathan Ruser providing details and maps of the current movements and advances made by both sides today.
Allegedly a French and Ukrainian Sniper Posing Together.
Russian Artillery Strike on Ukrainian Fortifications in Donetsk.
Not only is Ukraine run by Jews, a Neo-Nazi Regime but it's Filled with f'ing Queers as Well!!!
Herrington? Gachi Machi? I've never heard of these things. This man knows a lot more about Gay Porn and Porn in General then I do... And likely a great many people
Russian Warehouse On Fire for Unknown Reasons.
Apparently it contained or was operated by a company that Makes Textbooks which removed references to Ukraine. Others comment some of the companies leadership are linked to Putin.
Israel has fallen to Neo-Nazism... Now they are Inclined to Support Ukraine with Military Aid (though nothing major or heavy yet).

The CEO of the Company that Developed and Produced SwitchBlade Drones (Wahid Nawabi of Aerovironment) Gave a Bit of an Interview.

Switchblade drone: How the "kamikaze" anti-tank weapon works
The one-time use unmanned aerial vehicle is a powerful weapon that can dive bomb its targets, such as tanks and artillery nests, at a range of up to 30 miles – and is being supplied by the hundreds to Ukraine for use against Russian forces.

I'd call it an anti-tank cruise missile rather than a kamakaze drone. Its innovative in that it lets you make a relatively cheap and light crusie missile by using the relatively low cost guidance systems used in drones rather than the very expensive and very propriatary guidence system used in more traditional cruise missiles. It might also count as a television guided missile.

The tire saying USSR is very unlikely. that was never the acronym used by the soviets, that was a western term. In Russian the term was CCCP or Союз Советских Социалистических Республик. Which means Soviet Union so why would Russian military tires use a foreign language marking.
edit: I have some old items meant explicity for export from the Soviet Union and they still used cccp, the term usssr has never shown up
Well they expanded on it later in the thread. It was like for Export. He suspects India.
And that the labeling of the tires could've been done after the Soviet Union fell just due to inertia until the machinery was replaced/refitting that labels tires or whatever.
And some of them stated that 'Made in USSR' is a thing.
