I'll post what's happening as it comes through for purposes of posterity. Doubt the veracity of what is posted here. Having lived through the Iraq war, I am sure that the vast majority of what gets reported will turn out to be either misinformation or outright ********. Posting because a lot of non-Australia members will be asleep, now. I'll report as much as I can.

So far the g****vine is:

Russia has indeed embarked on a full scale invasion of Ukraine. Air attacks, and ground forces. There has been at least one missile strike, there have been front-line Ukranian casualities ( have seen video, cannot post it here, too graphic).

Footage of an airstrike hitting Lutsk:

Belarus has thrown in with Russia/is issuing support.
Reports of Ukrainian air defence having shot down multiple Russian planes, either drones or fighters. 


Some other info:

I'd just prefer something a little less human rights abusing. Settling for that regime and declaring it the best possible method is not the way in my opinion. Democracy may not be possible (i'd argue that it can work in any country if implemented properly) then there are many alternatives that don't involve concentration camps and stoning.

Yeah my point though if there was an alternative to Kadyrov great, but I dont think there ever will be
