It may not be much, it won't last long, but the chaos this will cause will be worth it, Russia will likely pull troops back to the border now.

Organized evacuations denied by the main directorate of Belgorod's Ministry of emergency situations.

However, we do know that many have fleed on their own will.https://t.co/TWoIGc1vBF pic.twitter.com/bHCNBpYUbS

After Gora-Podol it's small villages and outposts. Until they reach Belgorod once that goes it's over there's not much left to take to incorporate the new Ukrainian region.

Spoiler!

This is a joke.

A raid is a surprise attack for a specific purpose. Raids threaten or destroy a limited objective, kill or capture small groups of enemy soldiers or equipment, free prisoners, or cause movement of the enemy to protect the object of the raid. 2/

Feints are offensive actions that usually require a friendly force to conduct a limited engagement with the enemy.

The desire is to give appearance of an attack or the start of the offensive (prior to the real offensive start) w/o friendly forces being decisively engaged. 4/

So many verified Twitter accounts posting that fake image.

Musk's reliable Twitter is going brilliantly.

Unreality: an AI generated photo of an explosion near the Pentagon, a brand squatter with a bluecheck, and a state media outlet with no labels and 3MM followers. “freedom over censorship” indeed. pic.twitter.com/lIF82lCvYh
