    Announcement does not indicate when this intelligence was obtained. I suspect it was months ago and is only now being released to boost public morale.

      Unrelated to the war?

      I doubt it.

        Two planes hit in the last 24 hours.

        The second is, reportedly, friendly fire.

              It kept going there for quite a while. I guess until the Bradley hit the ammo.

                          Russia has a huge Black Sea problem. Even if they could, Turkey won't let their navy through the straits to reenforce what they have.

                          So what they have, is what they have. And what they have, is dwindling...

                                        @Wim very interesting stuff about the importance and effectiveness of drone warfare.

                                        He claims that it makes artillery partially obsolete. I’m not sure how true that is, but it’s certainly an interesting claim.
