Haha. That was in august with my mate. This one’s with the family. We all need a break from our Ukrainian guests to be honest.
A long but good read.
Stick with the true story line from the beginning
A paragraph further down the storyline as the war starts.
When Putin declared his “special military operation” in a pre-dawn televised address on February 24, he sent missiles, paratroopers and a huge armored column of soldiers rolling south from Belarusian soil, setting in motion what was intended to be a lightning strike to decapitate the government in Kyiv. But as Russia’s advance stalled and setbacks mounted, Moscow began to spirit wounded soldiers back across the border to Belarus for treatment in several civilian hospitals, a CNN investigation has revealed. The doctors working there were drafted into a war that they didn’t sign up for, unwittingly enlisted as quasi-combat medics and obliged by their hippocratic oath to provide life-saving care.

Inside the hospitals that concealed Russian casualties
As Putin sought to cover up the scale of troop losses in Ukraine, injured Russian soldiers were spirited across the border to Belarus.

Hopefully true - mass fatalities and casualties for the bearded TikTok squad - slower learners than the russians on social media by the looks of things

That’s usual though!! We were in Turkey in august and a few Russians there but for the most part they kept themselves to themselves, a group from Hungary weren’t overly keen on them.

Sick - but time to recycle an old pun....
What's the difference between a Russian Double Gazing looter and Everest Double Glazing?
The Russian will soon also soon be covered in plastic and if they're lucky to get repatriated they'll eventually have a hardwood surround just like the double glazing.
