News and rumors on the Ukraine front.











This new bridge is about four miles from the border inside Russia. I guess near Chernobyl of all places. There have been Russian troop movements videoed in the area all weekend long.There are reports the Ukraine Army is on full alert. It's 2/16 in Ukraine, the day US intelligence said the Russians would invade. It must be getting near dawn there. No mention of any troop movements tonight though. You would think they would start to move under cover of darkness so maybe nothing will happen tonight.
Don't know of any good reason to build a bridge in a day though.

OSINT is intelligence “drawn from publicly available material”, according to the CIA. Most intelligence experts extend that definition to mean information intended for public consumption. ... In intelligence agency terms, OSINT is also information drawn from non-classified sources.Nov 19, 2020

is either a target of Russians... if the wind is blowing toward Kiev... or a target of Ukrainians if the wind is blowing toward Belarus.


either way it would be like setting off a dirty bomb.
