Russia Has a Plan for Ukraine. It Looks Like Chechnya.
Putin’s template is simple: flatten cities, install satraps, rule by fear.

Ukrainian artillery shelling Russian positions in Snake Island.
US Army 82nd Airborne Division instructors arrived in Poland to train Ukrainian military.
Dozens of explosions thundered on Zmeiny Island and a fire broke out.
UPD: “The AFU attacked the drilling rigs assigned byto Chernomorneftegaz, which are also called "Boyko towers". This was reported by
protege in Crimea Aksenov, as well as this information was confirmed by the MP from Eurosolidarity
Sobering: “In short, US annual artillery production would at best only last for 10 days to two weeks of combat in Ukraine.”
Ukrainian Air Force Su-27 pair seen over Odessa earlier today. Reports suggest they took part in the attack on the Chornomorneftegaz oil rig platform attack.
Woe! Is this being reported anywhere else?Update: German media Bild: NATO must be ready to use nuclear weapons - German air force commander NATO must be prepared to use nuclear weapons if Russia launches a first strike. Such a statement by the commander of the German Air Force Ingo Gerhartz leads Bild on June 20.
Russians have three airborne corps on standby attached to their Black Sea fleet.
There is now 2 separate fires showing on @NASA FIRMS data in the area where the 3 Oil rigs are located. 2nd fire visible from 23:48, See below. 4th Photo is a breakdown of where the rigs are located near Snake Island.
This is what we are fighting for.
