Ukraine’s hackers registered a number of fake women's accounts on social networks, tricked ???? soldiers into sending photos that they geolocated, and shared with the ???? military. A few days later, identified ???? base near occupied Melitopol was blown up by Ukrainian artillery. - FT
The war is over 6 months old. How are Russian soldiers still falling for the obvious honey pot? Maybe instead of having priests follow the troops they should have hookers follow them. That way the troops can get blown without getting blown up in the process.

The Russian backed "anti frackers" stopped access to their natural gas rich tight shale in France, UK and elsehwere
The new British PM has promised to reverse the ban their ban on fracking and approve 130 new gas leases in the North Sea. It will take years for this gas to reach market, but at least she is not just sitting there with her thumb up her butt lick Macron is doing in France.

Hey ruffy what do you make of the 44 HIMARS your mighty Russian military has supposedly taken out? Since we all know the Russians would never tell a lie this has to be true right? No big deal that there are only 16 HIMARS in Ukraine they still somehow destroyed 44 right?

This gives the USA a chance to get a bigger piece of the European energy market through increased LNG and coal exports to Europe which means a reduced trade deficit with the EU and more jobs in the USA.
This is one area where the current administration sorely lacks. We and the world need that JFK/Reagan America bravado from time to time.
Biden or Buttigieg should be stepping off the the first LNG ship from America that docks at the newest floating LNG terminal in Hamburg, share a stein with Schultz and remind the western world it can door hard things. But American can do rah rah is not a strong suit of the current White House.
The exit (and it’s a permanent exit) of Russia from the European gas market is a massive opening for the US industry. That message for some reason isn’t being Trumpeted at the moment.

There were no proofs from you as expected. So you're lying. During the shelling, if you really were there, it was necessary not to shoot videos, but to save people. But when the shelling ended, it was already possible to do it.
But I understand that the battery in your phone has run out, otherwise you would have made a powerful video.
I'm not lying. I did not make videos during the shelling because I was too busy trying to take care of patients, move patients, and not shite in my pants to think about filming anything. After the shelling I was exhausted, but I did make a powerful video of the aftermath had moved to another sector. That video has been handed over to the proper authorities as I explained in my previous post.

Now about the rapists. I asked the prosecutor's office about the possibility of filing a statement on my own, but according to your testimony with evidence. I was told that this is possible.
If this is confirmed, then the perpetrators will be found, because it is known exactly who, where on what date he was.
The perpetrators face jail time. His nearest senior officer will be given a disciplinary punishment with an entry in the service record and he will no longer be washed off.
A doctor does not film an encounter with a patient in a clinic or hospital and keep the record on his personal device. Especially in a sexual assault or rape encounter. If a doctor filmed a patient encounter on his personal device and did not delete the video after transferring it to the medical record or proper authorities that doctor would be violating laws in almost every country on the planet and the Hippocratic oath. So I do not have video of the rape cases I saw.
Plus that is not how it works. In war if there is a situation in which a patient presents for medical care after an alleged sexual assault, a doctor and nurse get the testimony from the patient, swab the patient's genitals and collects DNA sample, and a police officer or in the case at the field hospital it was a social worker from the International Red Cross and a police officer if one is available take notes. The doctor then gives the patient medication to treat any disease that might have been transmitted and medication to keep the woman from becoming pregnant. The doctor and nurse then document the encounter in the medical record which can be used in court, and the police officer and social worker from the International Red Cross take possession of the DNA swabs and take over the investigation. The International Red Cross is supposed to be able to reach out to the combatant and have them pursue justice. However, according to the people from the International Red Cross that I have talked to the Russian prosecutors never pursue charges against the soldier.

So WeeWee if you give proofs, I will give the matter a go and there will be scans of documents with translation into English.
No thanks. I do not trust the Russian military prosecutors office. If I gave you evidence and you actually did turn it in to the military prosecutors office I would not be surprised if they arrested you and gave the soldiers an award. Plus proofs have already been turned over to the proper authorities.
ETA: Ruff Fish if you are so willing to put your own neck on the line to make sure that justice is served to those committing war crimes you can take this video of Russia using white phosphorus munitions on civilian targets in Ukraine.

No we do not need that to happen for 2 reasons.
1. LNG tankers are very sensitive to electronic signals and in theory could explode if there are too many on board.
2. Why reward Germany?
If you want a photo-op, Biden or Harris should have gone to Poland or Lithuania and greeted an American LNG tanker arriving at the Swinoujscie LNG terminal in Poland or the Klaipeda LNG terminal in Lithuania which are already in operation and expanding to handle more LNG with a large percentage of it coming from Lake Charles. However, Biden and Harris do not want to piss off the greenies, reward Poland and Lithuania, or reward a red state with favorable press.

But that’s what makes it a great photo op.

Because allies help each other even when they do stupid and short cited things, and to cajole them into promoting the outcome we most want to see. Germany drifted too far into the Russian sphere of influence. But they are still one of our 5 most important allies world wide.

Financial Times - nord stream 1 closed until sanctions lifted
“Russia’s gas supplies to Europe via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline will not resume in full until the “collective west” lifts sanctions against Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine, the Kremlin has said . . . . “The problems pumping gas came about because of the sanctions western countries introduced against our country and several companies,” Peskov was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency. “There are no other reasons that could have caused this pumping problem.””

Yep. Right now Russia can afford to squeeze Europe and try to make some of the European governments fall. Russia's economy is propped up by higher than expected oil exports right now because Europe is trying to fill up its storage capacity and it is cheaper for Saudi Arabia to buy Russian oil than drill for their own. However, the European ban on Russian oil goes into effect in December. At that point, Russia will need the income from gas sales to Europe. However, like everything else Russia has done lately who knows if it will stick to it. Russia very well might reverse its position in a week or two and say that it is being merciful to the west and reopen the pipeline.

Because it is a war involving a nation which we have a treat obligation to help defend.

A pretty good indication that Russian forces are losing ground northeast of Nova Kakhovka, potentially trying to condense their defensively line in response to the Ukrainian push towards the city itself.

Looks like Russian forces are starting to fall back or retreat along the northern aspect of the Kherson front in addition to falling back along the southern and western aspects of the Kherson front.
Also it appears that after one month of HIMARs attacks and two days and nights of conventional artillery the Antonovsky bridge is official done. The Russians or the Ukrainians are not fixing that section anytime soon.

The ban as onshore. It will take several years to get leases in the North Sea to have any oil or gas for them

Where do those many billions of dollars come from now? Their economy is only $1.4 trillion overall.
This means wells get sanded in and will need to be reworked once the new substandard pipeline to China is built, in 2025, to take almost half that amount exported to Europe in 2021.
Gazprom is going to have to out Enron Enron

They will probably just start printing money rampantly to prop it up. That will cause inflation, which will negate the effects of their currency controls in the long run. Bad times ahead for the EU, way worse times ahead for Russia IMO
