"Russian Invasion Survival Manual" To Be Issued To Citizens In European Union

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Mac Slavo via SHTFPlan.com,

While most Americans discount the possibility of a major conflict with Russia, Europeans who have seen two great wars in the last century know better.

The country of Lithuania, much like its neighbors, is preparing for a full-out invasion by Russian forces and their government is issuing a survival manual to its citizens. Though the complete details have yet to be released, the manual, among other things, advises citizens to “keep a sound mind, don’t panic and don’t lose clear thinking.

Lithuanian Defense Minister Juozas Olekas unveiled the 100-page public information pamphlet last Tuesday at a press conference in Vilnius. The book, “How to act in extreme situations or instances of war” aims to educate the country’s citizens on what to do in the case of an invasion.

 

The manual instructs Lithuanians how to “act during the organization of civil resistance, but also how to act under battlefield conditions,” in addition to containing information on governmental changes following a declaration of war and procedures for evacuating a building, according to Olekas.

 

The book suggests demonstrations and strikes or “at least doing your job worse than usual” as means of resisting foreign occupation. It also advises citizens to use social media to organize resistance and promotes staging cyber-attacks against the enemy.

In typical government fashion, the manual seems to discount the possibility that a Russian invasion will include the horrors often associated with war, advising citizens not to worry because “gunshots just outside your window are not the end of the world.”

Of course, should gunshots erupt outside of your window as a result of a massive onslaught of tanks, armored personnel carriers and infantry, it would be, by definition, the end of the world one has come to know.

The ‘Survival Manual’ seems to focus more on peaceful demonstrations and cyber warfare, rather than the obvious, which would more than likely involve the exchange of automatic gunfire, artillery, and Russia’s famed World War II era Katyusha rocket launchers, each of which are capable of firing over one ton of ordnance in 7-10 seconds in what are dubbed saturation bombardment salvos.

But don’t panic because this is not the end of the world if it’s happening in your neighborhood.

Lithuania is not the only country concerned with an impending Russian invasion. In March of last year, shortly after the Ukrainian crisis began, Poland called up military reserve troops for the first time since World War II.

According to a report from The Week Polish military reservists are being called up by the thousands, presumably to prepare for the possibility of not just spillover, but all out military confrontation with Russia.

At least 7,000 reservists have been recalled to the colours for immediate exercises lasting between 10 and 30 days.

 

They’re told by the Polish authorities that the call-ups are “routine”: but the men say they haven’t been asked before and they’re well aware of the growing alarm in Warsaw at President Putin’s aggression. Three weeks ago, their Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, called a press conference to warn that “the world stands on the brink of conflict, the consequences of which are not foreseen… Not everyone in Europe is aware of this situation.”

A conflict is brewing and everyone knows it.On Wednesday Russia made two key strategic moves that show just how tense the situation has become. First, they began selling U.S. dollar reserves, effectively divorcing themselves from dollar hegemony in the region. Second, in a show of force directly aimed at E.U. leaders they cut off 60% of their gas supplies to Europe in the middle of winter.

Observing the actions of Russia, the Europeans, and the United States over the last year should make it obvious what is happening.

The world’s super powers are preparing for a global confrontation.

*  *  *

As RT further details,

Lithuanian Defence Minister Juozas Olekas said the project, a collaboration between the Defense Ministry and Lithuania’s Fire Brigade was prompted by “Russia’s recurring aggression against its neighbors – presently in Ukraine.”

 

Copies of the pamphlet are to be distributed to libraries, secondary schools and non-governmental organizations, while an online version will be available for download from the Defense Ministry’s website, Olekas said.

 

The Lithuanian government is also considering requiring all future buildings to include a bomb shelter.

 

Lithuania’s Russian minority is around 6 percent according to the country’s last census in 2011, unlike the two other Baltic enclaves, Estonia and Latvia where Russian speakers account for approximately one-quarter of the population.

 

Recently, President Dalia Grybauskaite, an outspoken critic of Russia, has moved to restrict the broadcast of Russian state channels in Lithuania.

"exactly when was the "russin " invasion?"

September 17, 1939 right after the Germans took half of Poland the Russians took the other half.

Look up the Molotov-Ribbenthrop Pact and its aftermath.

That sounds like the second half of the Twentieth Century plan alright.

No post war occupying forces to provide long term stability such as Philippines, Panama, Japan, Germany, Korea.

When the EU goes to hell in a handbasket, and US finally gets fully bankrupt (morally too, not only economically), all the easy money will dry up in a heart beat. Those little guys in the Baltics will BEG the Russians (or anybody else with some sort of a viable economy) to occupy and feed them... and nobody will care one bit !

sure, but what were the folk supposed to do with the currency, when the supermarkets were empty? moreover, one has to consider that the communist planned economy was so unproductive that we could have used that food ourselves. and of course, the 40% was the higher quality staple that went to moscow.

This is a natural phenomena, as ugly as it is, hardly a generation goes by without war, brutality, torture, rape, murder and more between one group and another.

In one superpower they claim 'In God We Trust', apparently Putin consults with the Orthodox church or meditates there before making a big decision, Muslims consider Christ a prophet and they are against murder, the God of the Jews also has a commandment not to murder, and a lot of this garbage going on is under the guise of religion.

If you were God, which country would you help?  Or would you just close your eyes and forget about humanity?

I think I know the truth about this. 

We can't ever get to a point where we feel safe enough with each other not to be afraid and attack one another. Religions are sets of rituals that are not to be taken as rote. The words point at something but the words are not the thing they are pointing at. People reify or fetishize the words themselves, not understanding that there is inner work those words point to that develop a part of ourselves that all of us have, biologically. If I said it was love folks would stop thinking about my words and dismiss them, so I won't. What is being pointed at, call it spirituality, is biological in origin. One can induce this state with Neurobio-feedback, meditation, or other ways. 

Each culture has developed a "religion" designed to try and get us to this place. Each culture's religion has things in common, and differences that reflect the geography and history of the collective there. Then they fight over who has it right, when all of them are trying to get us to the same place-- peace, freedom. 

The very thing that should be leading us to peace, leads us to war. 

Add in that there are some folks who are wired without the capacity to go to this place (lets call them sociopaths, maybe psychpaths) but who can mimic it, and we have a great deal of BS to sift through to see the truth. 

The "paths" out of this are everywhere if we look. We are drowning in consumer culture which is designed to numb us to the pain of being out of touch with what I have been talking about. That numbing leads us further away from it, not closer. Downward spiral. 

God, if you like that name, is always there. We can tune in, or not. Does not matter. 

There is a story written by an author James Triptree Jr. called "Love is the plan, the plan is death." I find that to be very perfect. 

And I forget, everyday. So do we all. If we ever remembered at all.

I appreciate your comment, you have obviously gave it a lot of thought and you may very well be correct.

I spent a good many years thinking about this and observing.  Yes, bilologically our systems are capable of a lot and there is much yet to understand.

However, there is more to this life than meets the eye, beyond our biological sphere.  I have experienced and saw things beyond coincidence, inexplicable, at least to my mind.  I don't like using the term 'God' much anymore as it has been bastardized by so many.  Some of the Natives or First Nations coined the phrase Great Spirit and Russell Means, another 'terrorist' by government definition, said a better translation for Great Spirit is Great Mystery, which I think kind of fits the bill in respect to 'God'.

It's funny most of the main line religions stress love, yet the simplicity of love is oft overruled by the legal minds who have to expand everything beyond its intended meaning, confusing a great many.

When Jesus supposedly walked this planet he reportedly told one fellow all he needed to achieve life was to love God and his neighbor.  Jesus did not qualify who is neighbor was, should be, what color or race the neighbor or what religion the neighbor belonged to.  For me, neighbor means anyone.

The Great Mystery for me is life, all facets of it, everything encompassing the timeless universe we live in.  Without life, nothing would be.

Anyway, just my take on it.

Spirituality evolved in man's brain when theory of mind developed enough to assign agency to things that could not be comprehended.

Religion evolved from spirituality to meld differing small ingroups into a larger single ingroup to enhance power and control of those in charge. Like government does.

Of the tens of thousands of religions that have existed, how many are still around? No religion is more profound or more accurate than any other, the surviving ones just possessed a larger, more powerful, ingroup.

Some very deep thinking there MsCreant. It's taken me a few reads to absorb most of it. U.S. Anderson in his "Three Magic Words" used the words "universal subconscious mind" in refering to God. As far as I'm aware, it was never stated what those words were, and once concluding yourself what they are, you keep it to yourself anyway.

In a criminal trial the defendant is given access to the forensic reports and can subpoena evidence from the other side.

The non-inclusion of the Russians into the investigation regarding the downing of MH-17 is both suspect and unhelpful to the process.

I have friends who have lost in laws on that flight and they are highly suspicious of the European and American intentions.

"all they would have to do is arrest Lloyd Blankfein and Jamie Dimon and about 100 other financial perverts."

Under the real and as yet undisclosed nuclear doctrine of both China and Russia, Blankfein and Dimon are ground zero of the first strike. :-)

What oligarchs world wide fail to understand is that the only war strategy that makes any sense is one that quickly assassinates the enemy's oligarchs, with a lot of unfortunate "collateral damage."

If you want peace that should be your announced strategy, and if you want to "win" (whatever that might mean in a nuclear exchange) that should be your first and primary objective.

Clausewitz proclaimed that the objective of war is to disarm you enemy so you can subjugate the ruler who opposes you. Sun Tsu said essentially the same thing. Thus the object of war was to subjugate the ruler or rulers of your enemy and make them do your will as they are left alive to administer their realm as your tax paying vassal and new military ally.

None of this applies to modern democracies where the people have no idea who their real rulers are and the politicians raitionalize away the notion that they are somehow owned by oligarchs. Of course the oligarchs are smart enough to obey Pareto's law and keep the next 20% happy, with full employment and a rising stock market.

Thus if your initial attack assassinates the enemy oligarchs the political and media force driving the aggression against you disappears and a negotiated peace becomes possible as what is left of the top 20% have nothing to gain by continued war.

War between nations in contemporary society is literally insane, but if nations were to go to war against one another the objective would be to disable the ability of the opposition forces to fund the war campaign so that the enemy is forced to automatically retreat on campaign plans, and weaponry, staff, training, et cetera. Banks literally control the funding and in that regard war is managed financially. The real war

in all war is the argument one uses to come to a conclusion of war

and how it will be funded. Without funding war is not possible so it follows that to disarm is not really the true objective in the art of war

when we can see that it is better to think in terms of funding. Politicians will not go to war unless they are certain they can fund it. Bankers control who gets to drop bombs on who, and for how long.

Sun Tsu was a brilliant theorist, but he did not comprehend the motivation of Banksters that are always concerned about their bottom line of profit above and beyond their penchant for war

and profit. It is the cost of war that determines whether one goes to war, and it is the cost of war that determines the genesis and final

outcome of war. If banks can't make money they will only fund war if their very existence is involved in the mix. In brief, money makes the World go round and money talks in war. No money, no war, it is that simple.

USA has gone Full Retard.

It can easily go to war for a year without real funding plan, despite all that happens in Congress and in front of the Cameras. After all the FED & Our TBTF Banks create money out of thin air.

The Biggest part of War Funding can come from unexpected places in any one single year. So today it looks like we have very high debt and great resistance to going to war. But let's face it. US has gone full Retard.

But I like what you are saying and informing on Sun Tsu.

But feel that US War funding is a Lagging indicator.

"they will only fund war if their very existence is involved in the mix"

But it is now widely understood that oligarchs (and their beltway administrators, in the case of the U.S.) are the prime target in any intercontinental nuclear war.

Thus financing a war against a competent opponent inevitably leads to oligarch deaths. So rational oligarchs would refuse to fund war and would refuse to fund the media driven propaganda campaign in favor of war.

What you are suggesting is that oligarchs are either a) very willing to gamble with their own lives, or b) stuck in the past believing that the only casualties of war will be uniformed grunts, as was the case prior to 1945.

The object now is to bypass most of the organized military to the extent possible and kill the real ruler(s) with the least collateral damage to the productive sectors of the enemy (soon to be your trading partners). The facade of power we call congresses or parliaments, prime ministers and presidents are now merely administrators marching to the tune of the oligarchs.

A carefully executed nuclear strategy is one that basically wipes out the political power structure and leaves the rest of productive society alone. Think of it as providing innocents under the control of your enemy with a massive tax cut.

You must be arguing that our oligarchs fail to understand the nature and capability of modern war, and perhaps you are right, but I suspect not.

This is excellent propaganda by Lithuania. Fear is building in Western Europe and small Lithuania will be heard by all the big dogs and weak minds on the continent. From a psyops perspective the Russian Invasion Survival Manuals is cheap and effective propaganda. Russia would like to undo the sanctions but in the long run they are more concerned about sovereignty and the people of Russia understand they will do well to do business with China, India (BRICS) among others. Russia is not reckless and by reading their actions and what the leadership is actually saying, they are not interested in expansion, they have their hands full just keeping territorial integrity and maintaining sovereignty. It is easy for us in the West to forget the US gov gift of $5b USD for Ukrainian regime change, the Nuland F'u EU comment and the Ukrainian coup, again our US government is pulling shit where they have no business. If Russia can withstand the economic warfare they will win the peace, our ponzi banking, casino crony capitalism, national debt and our over extended military (bases in 137 countries), all of this is unsustainable and about to hit the wall. Did you see Silver and Gold's jump?

Well Put.

But remember we learned Zionist & Nazi lessons.

We certainly still dominate the world economically, politically, and financially. But as you say we have high debt and are losing the World Reserve Currency Status due to poor stewardship.

Apparently the Nazis had at least 2 great coups Economically or Financially. They started a policy (while Isolated from the world) to reinvest profits into Capital Equipment & Facilities at a much higher level than was normal for Europe at the time... and there is something about MEFOBills.

Today the USA & London apparently have Engineered Finances to the point where few understand what they are doing. The Nazis would be Proud!!

If it comes down to Finances, USA should win over the Russians and BRICs. But Trade & Piracy are Powerful Economic Tools. And China has a long history in Trade and has brand new manufacturing base. My guess is BRICS & USA are level in Technology, US keeps it's technology locked up in the Military Sector.

Question: who wants to test their technology, mastery over the sea, land, air & Space against the other? And today it can be done without human emotions over the loses with Drones & Robots.

USA seems willing to test it's weapons IMO. I don't really know the BRICS, but they also seem willing.

So NATO has a contingent of stay behind covert forces to run around and sabotage everything..  Honestly I think if Russia invades Europe, they will also nuke America, and China will follow up with a ground invasion, thus this is a bread crumb operation of insignificance (just sayin).

Yeah, there is always more info to see too.

"The release of the parliamentary report into the intelligence service coincided with the trial in Luxembourg of two former police officers accused of links to a series of unexplained bombings in the 1980s that were blamed at the time on leftist militants. Together, the trial and Parliament’s findings set off a wave of outrage over the spy agency’s actions and feverish speculation over the existence of rogue operatives linked to a cold war NATO program known as Stay Behind. The purpose of that program was to build up underground networks that, in the event of Europe being overrun by the Soviet Union, would stay behind and organize resistance. "

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/12/world/europe/spy-scandal-fells-luxembo...

"... grand duke, Marco Mille, had had regular contacts with British intelligence."

" The commission’s final report, released earlier this month, detailed a host of abuse accusations, including that the service retained large archives of “political espionage” information collected during the cold war on individual citizens and that a stash of money and gold established as part of the Stay Behind program had not been properly accounted for."

This sort of a side issue, the EU Commission President stepped down from Prime Minister of Luxembourg due to a scandal about Stay Behind Gold & Spying on the King.

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/07/world/europe/head-of-european-commissi...

"so-called comfort letters — effectively private tax rulings — provided to more than 300 companies in Luxembourg."

"The documents also raised questions about whether Mr. Juncker’s tenure in Luxembourg, a country that the Tax Justice Network, a research group in London, once branded the “death star” of financial secrecy in Europe, now conflicted with his current duties, which include enforcing fair competition among European Union countries."

"The leaked tax documents, released Wednesday by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, relate to the tax affairs of global companies like PepsiCo, Ikea and FedEx, and shined a bright light on practices in Luxembourg, a tiny country of less than 550,000 that allowed hundreds of big companies to pay little tax either in Luxembourg or in the countries where they do much of their business."

Well Putin said that there is going to be a major conflict in Europe again. EU leaders only have themselves to blame (and Europeans have their EU leaders to blame therefore). Don't fuck with a bear in his own backyard. Ukraine should have been left alone but nooooo 'players' had to interfere trying to lure the country away from Russian influence.

Watch out for this Donald Tusk guy. He is a hawk. He would not doubt to sacrifice the rest of the EU to come and save Poland and the Baltic states (for now not many Europeans are willing to come to their rescue, you see). He very much tries to influence EU foreign policy while the new EU commissioner for that spoke an already more appeasing tone trying to lift the EU sanctions.

Why this conflict? There are many reasons for that and bringing peace, freedom, democracy and prosperity to Ukraine are none of them.

Find out who stands to benefit and you will find a likely culprit. Some Russian dude said that 100 years ago.

“gunshots  exploding just outside your window are not the end of the world.” No, but nucleair missiles are and they are the end of life in the world. The planet will eventually recover after some millions of years.

Spring offensive in Ukraine will start soon. Europe is fucked and perhaps that was the plan.

The Russian Federation will nuke the USA most definitely IMHO.

Americans are overconfident in regards to the specter of nuclear war

hitting their turf, but after careful consideration I fully expect that they will indeed nuke the USA from multiple launch sites. Moreover, everyone knows that the Americans are pushing for regime change and we all know what American governments do to the leaders that they want ousted during regime change so it is a foregone conclusion that President Putin will attack America before the Americans can engage

in any first strike plans, or pre-emptive strikes, or regime change.

Furthermore, Putin is not Gadafi so you can't just chase him under a culvert and double tap like it is going to be a cakewalk. No sir, I think the Land of the Free is going to get toasted by Russian Federation nukes in due course of this next conflict.

The first thing that will happen is people will form collectives - defense collectives (those who are non-predatory) and the predatory gangs (those who have guns no brains and want preppers shit)..

Think Somalia world wide.  Naturally the elites plan is they are going to go into their underground bunkers and let the human population burn itself out - before they come out as the planned survivors and victors.

WEST ACTIONS.

The west does this to distract a population from the current very often economic circumstances. The EU has got so many economic problems that I am sitting here replying to this comment as a distraction.

RUSSIAN ACTIONS.

First, they began selling U.S. dollar reserves, this is a good point but when you look at the sanctions the west has done is it not normal to raise liquidity = sell reserves to deal with this?

Aimed at E.U. leaders they cut off 60% of their gas supplies to Europe in the middle of winter. What is the point of selling it if the price collapsed and where it would cheaper and more effective to keep all your own people warm. Then look to trade partners to sell too and strengthen ties and besides who wants euros if the ECB next week decides to print!

All in all shrewd manouveres minimising risk by Russia is what I see.

The statement "at least doing your job worse than usual" presupposes that ordinary people actually have jobs and second, they are working in roles that directly support occupation - of which there are none needed, and thirdly, that the idea is to make an economy on its knees already, lie flat on its back - if you like your poverty, you can have much more poverty.

Russia have no economic, military or geopolitical need to invade the Baltics or Poland, they were occupied because Stalin swept across Europe, well past Berlin and the Cold War facilitated the need for a number of Soviet satellite states. This will never happen again.

If real WW3 starts and is not a pretend, multiple false flag version, Russia and China will largely stay within their current defensive borders, with missile, tactical nuke, space and resource superiority. They might take Ukraine and Georgia if war is declared - purely because of the direct military threat, and reassert influence on some former Soviet Caucus oil states, but that's about it. Europe will be largely left to stew and rot in its own corrupt juices.

Either its a limited nuclear war against Russia, quickly morphing into Armageddon  -or-

NATO somewhat mobilises and fields around 12 divisions and happily tries to conquer Russia? 

Or US activate the corpse of Reforger and add 3-4 divisions to the lot and push to Moscow?

Madness in all cases.

i do agree with you, but that's why we have the concepts such as false flag attack and coup d'etat.

Obama is no Napoleon. He wants to push the button. You kmow he does. He loathes Putin. Despises him. Maybe he is in love with old Lemonhead

Make Putin "eat some peas"

Russia will not be attacking anyone unless pushed by the US and its crony Allies. Russia does not need to as the US and the Europeans will dig their own graves with no help from the Russians who have decided wisely to go their own way with others such like nations like China, the BRICS nations and all those who are queing up to join them.

Yep.

Russia has always had enough land mass and resources. They have no need to invade anyone unless they are attacked.

You guys in flyover country US should be building expedient fallout shelters. I have already got the plans and supplies.

I have one.  Several tons of concrete.  It wasn't built as a fallout shelter though.  Mainly for those nasty tornados.  Means how I live only 15 miles from a military base my death should be short and sweet.

I think the authors of this guide assume a quick Rusdian victory and occupation.

What the might not realize is that the SAME GUIDE, with all the tips on 'resistance', could be used against the CURRENT governments!

It's the banking mafia. It's always the banking mafia.

WWI was about them trying to extend their central banking scam to Russia.

WWII was about the Germans ditching the central banking scam.

( http://library.flawlesslogic.com/express.gif )

WWIII is about Russia/China moving away from the banking mafia's central banking scam.

 

This time they don't have any nearby proxies with an army large enough to physically attack Russia so they're trying to provoke Russia into attacking first through a strategy of tension.

 

I can understand the Lithuanians, Poles etc but they're being used by the bad guys as part of this strategy of tension - trying to get the locals fired up to attack Russians living in Lithuania / Latvia / Poland etc to prod Putin into invading.

Rat bastards.

I've become detached from this mess of shit social system sometime ago.  I personally am going to find it funny as hell when shtf.  I can see it now...........nukes going off and people will be trying to call in to work sick, freaking out because they can't check their 401k's on the internet, trying to turn on the tv to what cnbc has to say about it all, lmao it will be complete, utter disaster and you'll be far better off dieing in the war.  If that does happen, which is becoming increasingly likely, and I don't die in the initial 'shock and awe' my solution is a bottle of jack and a bullet to my head.

Yeah I think Tumblmore got it right.

With so many not working in the USA, and our women starting to enjoy combat... seems like we could export our people with the usual propaganda program to fight China & Russia.

Be all you can be, join the army and we'll give you education credits, tuition, and a small salary.

- HALF GLOBAL WEALTH HELD BY 1%...
- 'Simply staggering'...
- Davos arrives as world on verge of nervous breakdown...
- $25 Oil?
- Germany steps up repatriation of gold... Fears mount of work stoppage at ports...

Not sure who's Gold will be safe along bordering countries to Russia.

Russia is not the same country it was years ago. They have not threatened anyone since their 91 regime change. This hysteria would be more appropriate towards the U.S and it's wolf pack,  France and the U.K. It doesn't take a mathematician to count the number of destroyed nations via the democratic enlightened west when compared to the evil Russia, China, heck add even Iran.

Ukraine is a fine example of the innocent peace loving west bringing democracy to a nation by funding a coup, then installing, funding and arming a Nazi oriented regime. Iraq, another now dysfunctional state  bombed into the 12th century. Afghanistan, now the drug center of the world controlled by the U.S Intel agencies with the CIA leading the charge. And Libya, once having the highest living standard in Africa... now a complete basket case.

I can understand the ex-Soviet eastern Europeans being wary but they are pushing the envelope. One does not live peacefully with a powerful neighbor by constantly provoking them. Sooner or later you will get a reaction,,, which I believe is what the U.S and it's drooling wolf pack want. It is their modi operandi of late

Does Lithuania, Poland or any of the others really want to be the battleground again,,, just to satisfy the U.S Zero Cons dream of an American Empire?  Let me ask,,, Is the U.S suffering as the result of the sanctions placed on Russia or is it mostly Europe. It will be the same if war breaks out. Again... look at Ukraine. That is what the U.S and E.U have to offer.

You do have a choice at this point.

the choice is to take preperation

the bear is obviously waking up from hibernation

peristroika was a ploy

they have a long term plan that has not deviated

the US will not avoid this trouble no matter what tactic we use or have used

it is obviously heating up

something is going to happen and it will be sudden

wake up from your dream

As a Canadian I was a little insulted you didn't include Canada in your examples of wolfpack nations, the rest of your post deserves a thumbs up though.

What was the exuse at first, for this basketcase of a country called Ukraine,unable to pay anybody, but prayed upon by the european union with money that dosn,t belong to them, while the Russian side implies that the rights of russians in this country where not being held(and i believe them)

wouldn,it be better to acknowledge that the rights of the Russian Minority in this desperate Succubus country do need to be enforced

Lithuania , though currently a small inconsequential country has  a one thousand year recorded history of invasion and occupation of neighboring states . War is old news to this nation - state as it has been fighting them from its very inception , a fact that seems to be overlooked by well , everyone . Perhaps the current crop of psyco's ruling the place are attempting to resurrect the ghost of Mindaugas.....crazy

Old MSM source was put up by someone with date deleted,

mistaked for current, I think.

I have not seen genuine of current cutoff, but was about later and TurkStream

 

otherwise full fighting Donetsk and area, with Ukr went on attack and took large losses
