A War the Kremlin Tried to Disguise Becomes a Hard Reality for Russians

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

SOCHI, Russia — On Feb. 23, Razil Malikov, a tank driver in the Russian army, called his family and said he would be home soon; his unit’s military drills in Crimea were just about wrapping up.

The next morning, Russia invaded Ukraine, and Malikov hasn’t been heard from since. On Monday, Ukraine published a video of a captured soldier in his unit, apologizing for taking part in the invasion.

“He had no idea they could send him to Ukraine,” Malikov’s brother, Rashid Allaberganov, said in a phone interview from the south-central Russian region of Bashkortostan. “Everyone is in a state of shock.”

The reality of war is dawning across Russia.

1. Martial Law is said to be imposed on the 4th. Friday.

They should be all fleeing today.

2. EU and Ukraine advisers think so. Russian parliament meets Friday

I haven't found any info more solid than those two tidbits.

4. We take it as we hear it, & you're right on about the Parliment also meeting on Friday.

It may be a threat or it may not.. that's the problem with predicting the acts of a madman, i guess.

I'll take it as a warning, however.
I'd be fleeing if the means were availible.
Yikes.

3. Now, you need to do something about it

It is being done in YOUR name.
