The phrase “a column of civilian cars” is something you’d expect to see in a story about Somali bandits or a militia in Burkina Faso.

Russia bombed garbage in Kharkiv.

Another 1,210 Russians but only 1 tank.

Germany steps up. Thirty is good, but it isn’t nearly enough for the kind of war Russia is waging in the skies over Ukraine.

x 🇩🇪🇺🇦 Pistorius: "As of yesterday, I can announce that in the last few days we have also been able to provide 30 additional Patriot missiles from our own stock for the Patriot systems that have already been delivered to Ukraine."

Either there is a lot of anger directed at the military from Russians or Russia is an even sicker culture than I thought.

x Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the graves of soldiers who died fighting for Russia have been regularly vandalized — set on fire, defaced with swastikas, and stripped of military flags.
