    the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol, Crimea

    Was that here or did I read somewhere else that Russia is taking a lot of their ships from this base because concerns about future and present damage from Ukraine.

                My thoughts, exactly.

                  From the article:
                  "Ukraine has amassed almost 7,000 troops, 46 tanks, 223 armoured vehicles and eight artillery guns in the area now, according to Rochan Consulting’s Ukraine Conflict Monitor."

                              This twitter feed has some impressive, up close and personal, video of drone work on a small scale. Death comes from the sky, and these guys are totally unaware.

                                        Sen McConnell speaks regarding aid.

                                        https://www.axios.com/2023/10/30/mitch-mcconnell-ukraine-israel-aid

                                        “This is a moment for swift and decisive action to prevent further loss of life, and to impose real consequences on the tyrants who have terrorized the people of Ukraine and of Israel,” McConnell said while introducing Oksana Markarova, the Ukrainian ambassador to the U.S., at an event at the University of Louisville.

                                        “Right now, the Senate has a chance to produce supplemental assistance that will help us do exactly that,” McConnell said. “Enemies abroad will be watching closely and waiting for America to falter. Only our concrete and credible support can deter our adversaries in the future and restore security.”

                                        “Think of it as an axis of evil: China, Russia and Iran,” he continued. “So this is not just a test for Ukraine. It is a test for the United States and for the free world. And the path toward greater security for all of us is simple: Help Ukraine win the war.”
