I've just seen a Ukrainian soldier with a tin of bacon grill and now I've got an unbearable craving for it. Not that I'd want to swap places with him, to it's tempting.

What's happened to Russia's airforce? I haven't seen or heard anything about Russian air raids since the early weeks of the war.

apparently they are unable to defend themselves from all the missiles at Ukraine's disposal - they would be shot out of the sky before they can do anything of use to the ruskies - wasting aircrew

In the early weeks many Russian fighter jets and attack helicopters were shot down using the UK supplied portable Starstreak Mach 4 missile system.

Once the missile locks on you can’t get away. The Russian anti missile systems deployed on the fighter jets and helicopters failed to stop them.

One Russian pilot said they were sitting ducks.

I didn’t realise Finland has enough modern nuclear bunkers for 3 million of its citizens.

That’s what you call planning!!!!

Surely it's better to get incinerated and die quickly than starve to death in a nuclear bunker?

All their crops, food supplies, infrastructure, etc. will be destroyed.

Putin's soldiers left their excrement on the carpet before fleeing!

I know it's not the worst atrocity but they could have used the toilet, unless they did it while they were fleeing.
