More towns liberated the more these things are found.
Bucha was repeated, its integral to the way Russia does things. 
Going back to Putin's first war Chechnya take 2, and Grozny. 

Apparently, some of the republics next to Russia that have been getting Russians fleeing the 'Russian World'
are getting a bit worried they now have many more Russian speakers.
Then Russian World comes to you.

The Russian World, Putin and Krill you Keep what you Kill.

Hiding behind Crimea in Russia proper.

It was a very strange night last night with a lot of speculation online about martial law being enacted and not allowing military aged men to leave Russia.  There was meant to be an address by Putin, but it got postponed and then pushed out until tomorrow.  This could blow up spectacularly in Putins face if he did such a thing.  The appetite from the vast majority of Russians is not there to go die in Ukraine for stolen land.

Ukraine's recapture of the city of Izyum has brought multiple allegations of atrocities under Russian occupation. Among the accounts emerging is that of a group of Sri Lankans held captive for months. Here, they tell their story.

India might or might not think on this, pity Modi did not reply back to Putin.
You can end this war quickly....  Now, just leave, now.

Sham referendums?????  Putin has one vote, he wins!!!  Yeah I agree. I hope the West continues its retribution. Its a farce, and if the West delays 3 nanoseconds its a fail.

It does show Putin is desperate. He has admitted to his best and only mate that its not gone well. #backedintoacorner

I'll lay a bet that the called up reserves won't have any sons of the ruling class with them.

Sometimes you just get a feeling for something, like sensing the approach of rain. I have always been fascinated by the 1920s in Europe, and what it must have felt like as the small hints of times to come pushed through the party atmosphere. I feel like random fragments are coming together as they did then, like a gathering storm. There is a smell of war in the air, not localised regional conflict, but serious, all-out combat. The world is heading for war. Today I became convinced of that. I don't know if it will go nuclear, but it will pull in the world, as it has done twice before. War is coming. You can see the vortex spinning. You can see people leaning in to it. It is just like it was then.
