I hope he is able to get therapy to help with the trauma he suffered. He overcame & survived but will still need a lot of support to fully return to civilian life.

They buy modern radar able to detect even small drones and electronics while Soviet era equipment is the basis of Russia's armament.
Ukrainians innovate unlike Russians who repair & use or they build a new model still using Soviet designs just bigger.

Focus "on peace, not land" is like saying "No problem, just ignore your constitution like all MAGA flunkies do for Trump. What Trump wants is the law now."

Svalbard is where the SvalSat (Satellite Station), a satellite ground station is. It is essential to support polar orbiting satellites. Russia returned miners to a dead town to claim repression & invade. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svalbar...

@iocmedia.bsky.social recommends Russian & Belarusian compete for Russia to hit a sport school while Ukrainian children were in attendance. It was hit with multiple missiles so it was deliberate both to hurt kids & ridicule the weak west not standing on its principles.

Pres Zelenskyy is like the bold leaders of history, like Pres Lincoln who visited battlefields & even came under fire once.

There seems to be more groups from inside fighting Muscovy or greater impact with coordination so we get to hear more of their activities. Maybe Ukraine is training them?

Norway agrees with you and they did the economic calculations to back up their claim that its far cheaper to arm Ukraine to win. euromaidanpress.com/2025/12/03/b...
Norway did the math: Arm Ukraine to win, or pay double when Russia does
A new study finds Europe faces a simple choice: back Ukraine now for half the price, or pay far more later to deter a stronger Russia.
