According to monitoring channels 4 Tu-95MS headed to Olenya Airbase and 2 landed at Engels-2 Airbase. This signals massive combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine tonight
That's a big fire!
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov: When we issued a very clear statement in response to threats from the Baltic and other NATO members to attack the Kaliningrad Region, we were immediately assured that the Alliance had no plans, and could have no plans, to attack Russia, and that NATO was, supposedly, a defensive alliance.
We have heard many times that NATO is a defensive alliance, yet that did not prevent the attacks on Yugoslavia, Afghanistan or Libya.
That is a valid point, actually...![]()

Kaunas said around 100 soldiers would help guard the Lithuanian-Russian border over the next two weeks, according to the Elta news agency.

BREAKING:A Russian glide bomb just struck a bus in Kramatorsk.12 Ukrainian civilians were killed and 14 wounded.
Doctors are now fighting to save the lives of people injured in the Russian strike on Kramatorsk. As of now, 30 people have been confirmed killed, and sadly, that number may rise. The Russian bomb effectively hit two city minibuses. Some of those killed have still not been identified because of the severity of their injuries. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. Another 18 people were injured in the strike. Residential buildings and cars were also damaged.
This strike will not go unanswered. Russia is trying to destroy all life in Donbas, and a response from the world is a must. A forceful response – exactly as the Russians deserve for all the deaths they have brought. May all those killed rest in peace.
Now imagine what they will say if we escalate with Iran, getting any of our Nato Partners involved..That is a valid point, actually...
For the first time in 8 years, NATO's Military Committee has arrived in Kyiv in full force — with representatives from all 32 member countries

This after Russia killing how many civilians now? Ironic much?Russia Demands Handover of ICC President Akane
“Tokyo, Oct. 8 (Jiji Press)--The Russian Prosecutor General's Office said Thursday that it has requested Dutch authorities to hand over Tomoko Akane, president of the International Criminal Court”
“In December 2025, a Moscow court sentenced Akane to a prison term of three years and six months to 15 years for issuing the arrest warrant.” <for Putin>
Putin is reportedly unable to land in Moscow amid drone activity and aerial balloons. Four aircraft from the Rossiya presidential flight unit are said to be circling near Moscow, while the capital’s airports are closed due to the drone threat.
IKEA stores in Denmark are preparing to serve as emergency shelters - and potentially temporary hospitals - in the event of a major crisis.
According to Reuters, the furniture giant is preparing for scenarios including blackouts, flooding, and attacks on critical infrastructure.
• Showroom beds could provide emergency accommodation.
• Restaurants could supply meals to displaced residents.
• Backup generators could keep facilities operational.
• Additional beds could be assembled from warehouse stock.
IKEA is part of Denmark's crisis preparedness coalition, bringing together more than 200 companies to support society during emergencies. (A front where Denmark is lacking a lot behind, compared to other Scandinavian countries) The preparations come as European countries strengthen civilian resilience amid growing concerns over sabotage and Russian hybrid threats.Europe's security preparations are increasingly extending beyond the military and into everyday civilian infrastructure.

While I am unsure if the Constitution permits the Federal government to mandate shelters (it may fall under "common defence"), States certainly could.Here in the US we're on our own!
The federal government could build mass shelters for every person in the US using modern TBMs. IMOWhile I am unsure if the Constitution permits the Federal government to mandate shelters (it may fall under "common defence"), States certainly could.
You would be adding a substantial amount to a house price, however.
Switzerland has that, but they only have 9 million people, whereas the US has 350 million—where do you get the money?The federal government could build mass shelters for every person in the US using modern TBMs.
