Russian invasion of Ukraine

Dunno mate,this came up on CNBC,maybe it's old.


Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said he was forming a southern military command and sending battalion tactical groups to the area that borders Ukraine.

Lukashenko did not give details, but battalion tactical groups typically consist of mechanized infantry including tanks. The territory of Belarus was used for rocket attacks on Ukraine, but the military of Belarus did not take part in the Russian ground operation.

Ukrainian authorities have expressed concern that Belarus may agree to a wider participation in the war.
They have to date been conducting exercises on the border. Prob a Putin initiative to give Ukraine and its allies something to worry/think about. I think the fact Ukraine has only a token screening force, mainly of conscripts suggests they and the west are not concerned

Czech creativity: ice-hockey fans brought the Ukraine flag to the stadium a few days ago, but unfortunately have to put it out. All flags of non-participated teams are banned, organizers said.
But... here’s the solution!

Just had a catch-up on the BBC News site. Pretty depressing reading all in all. Seems the Russians are beginning to turn things around in the Donbas and the Ukrainians are on the retreat.

Because they have far more expendable troops. If Putin had any sense he wouldn't have bothered with Kyiv, he would gave gone in just from the south.
 
Good to hear British accents on the front line engaging with the russians- brave people

be interesting to know approximately how many foreign volunteers have committed to the combat zone?
