Re: Ukraine
putin in front of the war crimes investigators:
"Here is a pencil drawing of a russian tank. It is not tying people's hands behind their backs or shooting them in the back of the head. This proves that we are not guilty."
I feel so bad for those returning to "reclaim their homeland." Acres of rubble and their men murdered. What is there for them?

Pink Floyd - Hey Hey Rise Up (feat. Andriy Khlyvnyuk of Boombox)
I wasn't quite sure where to post this -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saEpkcVi1d4
I don't understand the lyrics, but I find it incredibly emotional and upsetting. I don't want to see bloodshed on either side and think that this is the most unjust war in recent times.
Thinking of and praying for the people of Ukraine

Re: Ukraine
No winners, plenty of losers.
Stirring track Kevin With respect, I think that they need more than prayers.
Civilian residential blocks shelled in the East, and a railway junction for would-be refugees to get out wrecked.
This is not even war, it is mass murder.

Re: Ukraine
On a lighter note (if there can be one), here is the story of the Pink Floyd song 'Hey Hey Rise Up' that I linked above.

Re: Ukraine
I see Boris is in/has been to Kyiv to meet President Zelensky. I wonder how he got there? My guess would be a flight to Rzeszow and then ground transport across the border and on to Kyiv (but that's still around 500 miles). I can't believe they would have risked flying to Kyiv.
There is currently an RAF RC-135W Rivet Joint aircraft patrolling the Polish border with Belarus and Ukraine.

Re: Ukraine
Interesting. And full marks to Bojo - particularly the extensive walkabout . Noticeable that in recent days RAF and USAF activity has been scaled down, ( although they sent a B52 to the Black Sea the other day!! ) but the French Air Force, Italians, and Swedes ( particularly noteworthy given Sweden's long held neutrality ) have been flying significant patrols from the Baltic to the Rumanian Black Sea coastKevin Farnell wrote: ↑09 Apr 2022, 18:08I can't believe they would have risked flying to Kyiv.

Re: Ukraine
Has anyone spotted the Il96 from the Russian Special Flight Squadron flying down the middle of the North Sea just currently abeam Scotland? I thought that those tw@ts were supposed to stay out of EU, UK and international airspace. Maybe it's a flight to collect expelled diplomats at least I hope that is what it is.
