Count them in the video. I saw 11 individual, discrete explosions.

Video of the attack on Maryno;

It's reported that twelve Storm shadow missiles were used to hit the underground command and control centre at the village of Maryno in Kursk. Couldn't they have used just one or two missiles? It's as if they decided to make sure. Really sure. Who or what was inside it?

This might be rather significant.

Did you actually look at the MOEX and see that it is a sea of red, not just yesterday, but over the past year? No, of course you didn't. The sanctions are working. Sure Russia has done what it can to get round them.

Chilling is the right description. I suspect we only know about a subset of the Russian hybrid war on the west. There is going to be a lot we don't know, and a lot that people are afraid to voice for fear of being ridiculed.

Lots of activity in Russia overnight, in Briyansk, Tula, Belgorod, Voronezh and Rostov. At least 8 Atacms said to have been used with 2 shot down. Azov South twitter.

Check out the Moex today, for a snapshot of how Russia's finest companies are doing. If you think the sanctions aren't working, go ahead and fill your boots. Snap up all those bargain shares. Let us know how you get on.

No offence taken from me Zeb. The only thing I would take offence at is if someone new joined the thread and proposed a peace deal that rewarded Russia in some way or left Russia the chance to rest up and go again.

Oh I didn't read it. I just saw the places and assumed it was another random threat. Berlin and Paris, sure, but Portugal?

Russian propagandists becoming even more unhinged as their economy slides slowly down the pan: N.b. Portugal?

**** Looks from side to side and then behind **** Who was he referring to?

The options for Russian investors and savers are not that great are they? Perhaps they should focus on wheelbarrows, which are good for transporting turnips, rubles and dead soldiers.

Until the banks pull their shutters down. Then it's not nice.

If they stuffed it under the mattress, then they will have lost through rampant inflation. And if they think of spending it imported goods, as opposed to that substandard Russian stuff, then that will also cost them more due to the ruble falling.

The ruble is falling again. Spare a thought for the Russians at the central bank, anxiously looking at their computer screens. Like Palace fans staring at the Premier League table.

This needs expert analysis, but my untrained eye sees that Russia cannot afford to bail out the banks. So they will print the money to fund it. Result: more money chasing the same amount of goods, means inflation. More than it is now. Perhaps a lot more. How will this pan out for Ukraine...

Several people have mentioned the hypocrisy of the Russians, and how infuriating it is. Just one example is their outrage at having to face long range weapons, and making various threats and vows in response, when they are flattening and laying waste to Ukrainian settlements on a daily basis. I...

Are you channeling your inner Russian? I would have labelled it 'user error' myself ;)
