People are going to have a hell of a shock when they realise all this "cheeky hybrid warfare mischief" to Russia can absolutely include striking your military bases and critical infrastructure kinetically.

You beat me to it mate, just about to say the exact same thing. It's frustrating. 🤦‍♂️

They're at war with us. "Hybrid" to Russia isn't a soft lesser alternative to war - it's a mode of war.

And clearly a very effective one, since we dismiss it as hijinks and won't fucking defend ourselves from it.

Russian doctrine does not distinguish "Hybrid warfare" all of it is categorized as warfare.
Hybrid tag has been invented by our western politicians to make sure they can have an excuse to do nothing.

"Gas stations with nukes" country buys gas from Belarus. Everything is according to plan!

Russian propagandists:

How about Russia sells Oreshnik to Venezuela?

Arming Maduro with IRBMs, even if they're functionally fucking useless, sounds like an absolutely fantastic idea for Russia right now.

Reuters story headlines: Trunp calls for jailing Democratic leaders as troops prepare for Chicago deployment

If you had written this as a fake news headline a year ago, you would be called hysterical.

Reuters today. Fascism.

😵‍💫 The Kremlin showed Putin's celebratory lunch with the generals yesterday.

It doesn't feel festive at all. Everyone's expressions are gloomy…

General 1: "Psst... what happens to us if we eat this food?"

An army that must drag such unfit men to war 1,322 days into a failed conquest isn't a winning army.

But it is a sign of a state which places no value on human life or dignity.

These men are readily sacrificed just to waste a handful of their enemy's bullets.

That's their worth to the motherland.

They won't be dragged anywhere near the realm of nuclear exchanges to cover for a failed and ill-conceived Russian imperial adventure. Xi already told Putin this in 2022.

They have very aggressive ambitions, but none of them include ruling over a pile of ashes.

Explosives were dropped from a drone in the Dniprovskyi district. A man aged 65 died and a 70 year old was injured

In Antonivka a 70 year old woman suffered shrapnel wounds in a separate attack.
Russia filmed their "heroism"

Genuinely, they'd have used a nuke already if this wasn't the case.

Russia's whole regime are more than happy to inflict wholesale slaughter on anyone, especially if it comes with added mass terror.

They don't because they understand even a conventional response will end everything for them.
