Syria and Azerbaijan vs the Armenians a few months ago ,
Where the Azerbaijani military walked over the Armenians using Turkish drones and other equipment
The Z Cars have taken a battering.
In fairness it's very hard to do so during war. Mainstream media isnt able to keep up with reports coming in online. From now on if I post anything from twitter I will make sure to say its unverified.
I'd imagine there would be a fine line to balance on when it comes to restricting things which hurt the average Russian immediately. It would be used as a propaganda tool to bolster Putin's support. (Not that there is a lack of propaganda anyway).
For the diplomats, I would guess that you might keep them a little longer in order to have some line of communication open
I get the feeling too that it is not going to plan militarily and that the Ukrainians have put up way more resistance than they anticipated.
Yep exactly but Russia is awash with fuel and that shouldn't be an issue for their forces. It appears the plan was like the German one in the Ardennes (1944/5) to get supplies as they conquered the Ukraine. They really didn't plan this well at all. Professional army my arse!
We know what you are .....
Save yourself the effort Nobody is listening
But the USSR flags are up in parts of Derry. Hopefully someone has got out their stepladder since
Yea I agree its hard to follow. Twitter can be a real minefield and a platform for reliable information but also a platform for much disinformation as well.
Destruction, pure and simple. Make life as hard as they possibly can for the people of Ukraine. Its a common tactic.
Hello, Heat and OK?
You'd want the RTE Guide as well. The invasion could go on for a while.
You would think with the number of Russian vehicles running out of fuel they would want to keep the fuel stations intact
Where did you see this?
Poland is preparing a dedicated train to transport wounded from Ukraine to temporaty hospital in the national stadium in Warsaw. The hospital in stadium was prepared for covid patients.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn't see that one coming at all
What the?? Mod gone rouge or genuine hack?
There were obvious bad actors infesting the other thread. Not to be too critical of the mods because I know they are probably firefighting, but those accounts were given soft two day bans or threadbans when they should have been nuked from boards.
Also a bit of clarity is data such as out email addresses safe? Would rather not end up on a list getting malware loaded emails from Ruski backed bots.
Russian broadcasters have left the European Broadcasting Union it's been announced.
Diversion here..... Revolut is looking for donation to help Ukraine (the Red Cross) via my account with them. I wondered if I should do it via Revolut?
I have read that the Irish arm of Rv is in Lithuania, but am also reading some reports about the founders being Russian backed or something?
I would like to donate but not sure anymore about charities. Anything on the ground out there? I don't care if they use it to buy vodka and fags, they need some solace, but hate the idea of a big charity frittering it away on non essential stuff. Not sure about the Red Cross either!
What am I like! Over cautious or far too sensible. Both probably. But that never buttered any parsnips either.
Original thread is fixed btw
Well....all posts being restored at the moment, page by page, so it's jumping.
They have experience with that. In 2 WW there were 2 soldiers per 1 gun. When the first one got shot the second was supposed to pick up the gun and keep moving forward. Also they were shtoting their own soldiers from behind if they were retreating under bullets from the enemy side.
Can someone explain why. I thought that Ireland was too small to have a Russian embassy. It could have covered Ireland from its UK embassy with a first secretary. Ireland do this or at least used to do it in the past. Given the size of Russia Limerick is only down the road from dublin
Reports on twitter from numerous sources that a convoy of Russian Rosgvardia and riot police units has been destroyed.
Those forces are not frontline forces, they were sent to fight in soft skinned trucks and white vans. Things must be really desparate if these are the types of forces that they are deploying.
I'd understand them being deployed to an area after it had been taken was a distance from the frontline but they certainly shouldn't be going toe to toe with frontline units.
Is this thread being restored fully, or only in part?
Lemme guess. Shannon airport and USA operation in the area?
I was looking at the Irish Red Cross financials, they spend 2.6m on wages and receive 8.3m. They would be one of the better ones.
Back from the gpo protest. Very moving.
It's being restored page by page (I think 10 pages each time). That's the only way it can be done.
The one is Dublin is looking to open a Massive basement area that's going to be as big as the whole compound ,
Our very own Kremlin bunker in Dublin but remember there is nothing to see here , we are your friends
