Russian invasion of Ukraine

Just watched BBC coverage. Gob smacked. Reports on the gains, but had a bloke on saying wouldn't be surprised if there's a counter, counter offensive by Russia. So down beat reporting, felt like someone pulling the strings. Very weird. Complete different to what I've been reading on here.
The news on here does seem to be overwhelming positive at the moment, (although I am a night's sleep behind the thread) so it may be worthwhile not ignoring all other sources just so we don't get too carried away.

That said the progress has been looking amazing.

When Russia were making gains across the Donbas etc the Beeb’s reporters said that might change when the Ukrainians got hold of HIMARS tbf. I’m no fan of the BBC but at least some of their journos have risked their lives covering the news from the Ukraine.

Yes it’s annoying when we get 24 hour coverage on the Royal Family and a few French locals taking the dippers seats at the Champs League, at the expense of all other news.

Don’t forgot the Ukrainian’s already did 1 push At Kharkiv that got to the Russian boarder, the Russians countered that and gained most of that land back.

This does feel very different to that tho but I can understand reporters saying they expect a counter offensive.
