Add to the above list if you can, thank you.
Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins
Defense Politics Asia’s youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)
Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.
Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.
Yesterday’s discussion post.
Are the Russians really storming the azovstal factory? Saw something about that on the previous thread.
I wonder what happened to their plan to flood them out with fire engines. (Okay actually I was pretty skeptical about that one from the start, but it was comically pretty funny and at least creative.)
Too many craters to get the fire engines there?
Russian propaganda is pretty funny sometimes
They’re certainly bombarding it, but I’m reluctant to try and report on it until I get much sense out of it.
maybe the Russians think they’ve been weakened and it would be a bit easier to take? idk. The only reason to go down there is to save the civilians, the Nazis will die one way or another
