First thing they should do is make all their mega yachts leave the marinas they're in. Then stop them porting anywhere. Nothing like a £500 million yacht out of fuel, out of fresh food and water just bobbing about in the Med/Pacific/Atlantic. Their mega yachts are basically mini countries, they have weapons and all sorts. A port will let them in for the right price. That's fine, but it won't be a nice port, it'll be a port in a Country that supports Russia, and there aren't that many round there that have the facilities to hold and maintain yachts like that.

They can cruise around the Black Sea …… if they can get there ! 😂

Belarus joining in now, apparently. Boris saying we'll take 200,000 refugees (still the family members of nationals here though).
A couple of countries giving Ukraine their soviet legacy aircraft (compatible fleets as they couldn't fly or service any unfamiliar planes). I wonder if they are capable of attacking that convoy, it's a sitting duck to any competent air force.

Or perhaps they have another tactic / usage in mind?

Or perhaps they have another tactic / usage in mind? Possibly busy elsewhere and trying not to lose them unnecessarily. Once they get the additional planes then they may be bolder. They do have other means, but I'm not sure why it's been left unmolested so far. Logistics is the reason Russia will win or lose, stopping this resupply I'd have thought would be a priority. Maybe waiting for them to be in a certain place. Russia seem unable to avoid roads, a few losses would cause gridlock. We'll have to see.

We all know that we’ll end up taking in nothing like 200k , we won’t even take in yesterday’s number of 100k . It’s just a number they can parrot but as they are bare faced liars and Brexit loons you can take this as a guarantee.

The Azeries used the Turkish TB2 to devastating effect a couple of years ago, Ukraine have been using them too although not sure on numbers. They reputedly have half a dozen or so, depending on whether further orders have been delivered.

Seeing 40 miles of armour jammed together like that is asking for it and I hope the Ukrainians have the weaponry to do it, bit like that Iraqi armoured column the Brits/US totally destroyed in the Gulf War.

In the 2020 conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia it was used by Azerbaijan to destroy loads of Armenian tanks and other armoured vehicles.

It's apparently the best part of an Armoured Division. If it's not stopped then it's not looking good for Kyiv, they'll just park outside and either starve them out or destroy it in stages until they surrender.

Shame we don't have anti tank missile system orbiting in space with that 'sitting duck' armoured column. Bang! Bang! Bang! where the f**k did that come from?
