"The Cheka-OGPU learned that on November 10, 76 Russian servicemen were killed during an attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. They decided to use them as a “distraction maneuver.” This fact is carefully hidden. As the source said, on November 10, the command of the 35th separate motorized rifle brigade of the 41st combined arms army of the Central Military District received a combat order to march with the forces and means of two battalions to the Golopristansky district of the Kherson region. This order was initiated by the headquarters of the Dnepr group with the aim of “misleading the Armed Forces of Ukraine” regarding the true intention of the command of the Russian Armed Forces in this area. Based on the order received, the personnel of the 1st motorized rifle battalion of the 35th Motorized Rifle Brigade were loaded into a vehicle without proper equipment and, as part of two columns, left for the Gladkovka area. While in Gladkovka, both columns of the 1st MSB were struck by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, as a result of which 76 servicemen were killed. According to the source of the Cheka-OGPU, as part of the investigation into this fact, an investigation into the true causes of the incident is not being conducted. An attempt is being made to conceal the fact of an obviously criminal order from the group’s command, due to which the military personnel found themselves in the role of a living target."

Videos have indeed become more graphic.
x there are a few levels of videos I encounter:
1: standard artillery shelling, tanks blowing up etc
2: slightly more gory stuff, blowing off limbs etc
3: really gory, exploding bodies etc
4: truly fucked
5: unspeakably bad
those 4 and 5 levels have increased frequency — Andrew Perpetua (@AndrewPerpetua) November 17, 2023
It makes you feel a certain anger and rage to see. Especially seeing people minimizing things on social media and the news. I just want to shove their face into that shit, but you cant. And it would be pointless anyways. its just something I know that everyone who follows very closely is experiencing, and people who are even 1-2 steps back don’t see at all. there is that protective barrier that we call civil society or whatever. that protects people from the reality. and protects them from the consequences of their actions. or inaction. which I find truly barbaric, to be honest. there is nothing civil about hiding from your own consequences.

Speaking of what a fab place Russia is, Russia is desperate to increase its population, but you don’t see them trying to recruit emigrants willing to take a dangerous boat trip across the Mediterranean to get somewhere else or emigrants trying to get across the Rio Grande for a better life.
Why? Because Russia doesn’t want more non-Russian minorities. And there’s no guarantee those people would even want to go to Russia.

Vasyl Solianyk, a resident of the de-occupied village of Kamianka, Izium district, Kharkiv region, has collected more than 500 music records since 1982. During the occupation, Russians lived in his house and destroyed the entire collection. After a media shared Vasyl's story, people started sending him records, record players and speakers from all over the world. Vasyl Solianyk has already received records from different cities of Ukraine, the United States, Great Britain, Poland and other places. He says he never expected that and is very grateful. People have sent him some very valuable records, as well.
