When you're marching through Teutoburg forest and you hear Varus yell "AMBUSH".

A very good boy! Coined "the mascot of Chernihiv," this bomb-sniffing dog helped emergency service workers locate explosive devices in Chernihiv, Ukraine.

Meanwhile in #Russia: Deputy of the Moscow City Duma Sergei Savostyanov proposed for Russia to expand its so-called "military operation" and "denazify" Poland, the Baltics, Moldova and Kazakhstan.

9 #Russian soldiers received their "Order of Courage" today in a #Moscow hospital. 8 of these young guys have lost a leg. Another one had an arm amputated. Some were crying at the ceremony.

As Russia’s war against Ukraine enters its second month, the grim picture of destruction and suffering is breaking through on state-controlled television. Before the invasion, military experts predicted a rapid takeover of Russia’s peaceful neighbor in a matter of minutes. Now that the reality is starting to set in, they’re grimly surmising that it will take several decades to subdue freedom-loving Ukraine.

State TV’s talking heads have tried in vain to paint a rosy picture of the Kremlin’s invasion, but the cracks are starting to show. On Thursday, with screens depicting dramatic images of demolished Mariupol flashing behind them, hosts of state television show 60 Minutes, Olga Skabeeva and Evgeny Popov, tried to point out the “positives.” They noted that Russia promised to pay compensation to some Ukrainians from the “affected” territories—10,000 rubles each, amounting to a mere $100 dollars.

To make matters worse, Ukrainians forcefully deported to Russia might end up in places like the Russian island of Sakhalin in the Pacific, with freezing cold temperatures and stark landscapes. After discussing news reports about ongoing relocations, Evgeny Popov helpfully pointed out: “But in Sakhalin the salaries are the highest in the country!”

The chorus of concerned voices in Russian state media blamed their country’s information war failures on the fact that the Kremlin’s propaganda channels have been banished in Ukraine. State TV pundit Nikolai Starikov proposed: “When we talk about the organizers of the info-war, I’m convinced that their place is on the same bench where Nazi criminals will be tried.” The hosts, who for years agitated for war against Ukraine under false pretenses, nervously looked on without commenting.

Russia desperately needs to mobilize new soldiers for the war with Ukraine. A proven method is to accuse Ukraine of attacking Russian territory. Now RU media report air strike on Belgorod region in Russia from the territory of Ukraine. Guess who did it?

North Korea's state-run television shows edited footage of Kim Jong Un guiding the test-launch of what the country referred to as the Hwasong-17 ICBM.
