Incredible testimony on BFMTV from this mayor of Melitopol who was kidnapped for several days by the Russians. He says they had no idea what’s going on. They told him we’re here to get the Nazis - he said I’ve been in this town 30 years and I’ve never met one…. then they said

It seems these Russian soldiers truly thought that. This entire war is being fought on propaganda - for false pretenses. Its not only Putin who doesn’t know what’s going on. This mayor, Ivan Fedorov, said the soldiers were completely unprepared and clueless.

French life expectancy is up, 83. Why do the French live longer than Americans? For me it’s obvious: they have a preventive, healthcare system that follows them thru life. Not a for-profit system they mostly avoid until it’s too late. Here is an amazing example.

Fascinating! Ukraine cut off Russian soldiers’ phones when they invaded, so they took Ukrainian civilian phones. But civilians reported it, so the Ukrainian govt could then tap those phones and spy on the Russian soldiers… ⁦ @gregmyre1 ⁩

How does Ukraine keep intercepting Russian military communications?

Russia had a reputation for being highly skilled in secretive military communications. That notion has been largely shattered by the bumbling way it has been operating in Ukraine.
