If the information you provided is accurate, it would suggest that the United States has deployed a new unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to conduct reconnaissance activities in the Black Sea region. Such activities are not uncommon, as many countries use drones for intelligence gathering and surveillance purposes. It is important to note that the deployment of military assets in a region can potentially escalate tensions, and it is crucial that any such actions are taken with caution and with the aim of promoting regional stability and security.

Some new reports of an FSB office building catching fire in Rostov-on-Don.
The building was supposedly storing ammo for the front.

An arrest warrant is issued against Russian President Vladimir Putin by the International Criminal Court in the Hague.

It accuses him of being responsible for war crimes in Ukraine, including the unlawful deportation of children.

Russia has repeatedly denied that its forces have committed atrocities in Ukraine.

A warrant has also been issued for Russia's commissioner for children's rights.

Russia does not recognise the ICC's jurisdiction and a foreign ministry spokeswoman says its decision's has "no significance"

Russia earlier threatened to destroy any fighter jets given to Ukraine by its allies after two countries promised planes.

Meanwhile, Finland's bid to join the Nato military alliance has finally secured the backing of Turkey's president.

You can see it on Flightradar24, its transponder is once again on, just like with the other drone that was rammed by Russia.
Being rammed on that flight path I'd say it was an act of war, but what do i know.
Forte10 is currently east of the border of Moldova, but you can see its former flight path.

Yeah, I've been looking on there and am wondering if there will be a repeat performance from the pariah.

I wonder if a drone could down a fighter jet (excited).
Or should a drone be accompanied by NATO planes, i mean it is international airspace?


Manwhile russian propagandist Solovyev suggests creating more private military companies like Wagner and have them attack Berlin, London and other places.
It seems that this Solovyev has lost all hope of getting back his beautiful italian villa at Lake Como…
I wonder who this idiot is? Does he represent anything or did he stand for something before the russian aggression?
Being paid by Putin does some strange things to people

I say bring it on. We need to finally step in and help the Ukranians.

Poland seems in the process of formign a fighter alliance. Washington no doubt nows it.

Poland did not ask and Washington did not inform the Germans.

Ooooooh....!

I despise the "Hunger Games" and all this HBO crap, but you got a point

Haag have made an arrest warrant issued over war crime allegations against Putin.
What about Zelenskyy, he has committed war crimes too

(This is what many of my Danish friends has been written on their wall throughout the evening.

No doubt cause there's rotten eggs among the officers on both side-I myself are convinced there are a lot more of these on the Russian side.

Where exactly did Zelensky commit a war crime, or even several?

Did he give an order for ten thousands of children to be separated from their parents, deported and displaced?
This is what Nazi Germany did, and Serbia tried to later.

Good question..

I haven't any directly proof. I only know from ready military history that there's always rotten tomatoes on both side in a war.

And as I wrote
"I'm convinced that there are a lot more of these on the Russian side."

Even though I support Ukraine and its people I have difficulty in believing that the entire military machinery is perfect, does not brake any ROE, or not committing the smallest war crime.

Ukraine will remember who backed us - foreign minister

Countries that "mistreated Ukraine" will be held to account after the war ends, Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has warned.

In a BBC interview he said the choice every nation made following Russia's full-scale invasion will be "taken into account in building future relations".

He also warned delays of Western weapon deliveries would cost Ukrainian lives.

"If one delivery is postponed for one day, it means that someone is going to die on the frontline," he said.

Yeh that quote sort of spoiled it for Ukraine imo, I still back them, but I see that as a threat to any country that does not support Ukraine.
A lot of countries are just plain scared of Russia!!
