  5. Permission to hit Russian territory would increase the West's involvement in the conflict in Ukraine and entail a reaction from Moscow, Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in an interview with the daily Izvestia.

    "There is no need to exaggerate. But, naturally, this raises significantly the degree of the collective West’s involvement in this war around Ukraine. Of course, this will entail a corresponding reaction from Russia," Peskov warned, commenting on the speculations that the West might make a positive decision on the issue of letting the Ukrainian military use its weapons for strikes deep into Russia.

    He emphasized that "this is an attempt to continue the war to the last Ukrainian."

  7. Be interesting to know what make of tyres the ruzzian plane had – there's a report in the UK Guardian newspaper that Goodyear, Dunlop, Michelin and Bridgestone tyres are still be sold to Putin via "intermediaries" – how is that possible?

  8. What is this nonsense? 🤣
    Russia can supply 60fps video of Ukrainian losses but were supposed to believe this?

    How can a Ukrainian unit be stationed at a Crimean air base?

  9. Unverified. Uncorroborated. Only one-side source: the Ukrainian government. This is typical "The Telegraph" eagerness to make believe anything, giving false hopes for Ukraine.

    In other news, Russia is mopping Kursk and advancing forcibly on the eastern front, making significant territorial gains, while the Ukrainian frontline collapses.

  10. I remember that Russia media announced that Su-30 is more modernized and powerful than F-16 many times in past 10 years.
    So maybe 2 or even 3 F16 downed is equally 1 Su-30 downed, following Russia media's logic.
