A Russian journalist who protested against the war on the country’s most popular TV channel appeared in court on Tuesday after disappearing for over 12 hours.
The whereabouts of Marina Ovsyannikova were unknown after she stormed into the set of Russia's state TV Channel One live on air with an anti-war sign.
The sign, which said "NO WAR. Stop the war. Don't believe propaganda. They are lying to you here” was seen for a couple of seconds before the broadcast quickly switched to a pre-recorded show.
She was photographed in a courtroom accompanied by her lawyer on Tuesday.
The Kremlin described Ms Ovsyannikova’s protest as "hooliganism" on Tuesday morning.
"As far as this woman is concerned, this is hooliganism," Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told reporters, praising Channel One for what he called its quality, objective and timely programming.

Do you know which units have deployed to Europe since the onset of the war?
I dunno. But we need to send the 82 and 1st Cav to Germany just to mess with Putin mind...

Maybe you will take a stab at answering
In the grand scheme of things if you are the aggressor with 200k troops mobilized and 2 weeks in you are having to ask China for help you are getting your arse kicked.

I feel like it would be hard to get out when it's like that. Or is there another exit on that lower deck?

There are a couple of driver hatches below the main turret.
On a side note, how in the heck do you flip a tank that wasn't helped over by high explosives? Inquiring minds want to know.....

Yes and I would love to tell you. Lots of open source hints out there.

Drivers mistake, possibly.

Russia should be able to score a military victory. The long-game is at what cost and what will they actually gain. It’s the long game that Russia is losing.

There are tons of videos of Russians flipping tanks while loading them on a trailer

That's right. I've seen them.
2nd question then. Why don't they have tank recovery units with very platoon. It wouldn't be THAT hard to get it back upright.

I’m starting to think Ukrainians may have attacked these Fox News reporters.

I’m not sure about the Russian army but I think the US has a tank recovery platoon per battalion.

I've seen some flip while loading on a concrete/asphalt road. I'd imagine training/experience play a role. Then again, the controls on a ragged out T-72 probably aren't easy to use when finesse is key

Great question. Apparently there arent any type of recovery units which is embarrassing for any kind of mechanized unit. Everything points to them believing this was a 48-72 hour operation.
