Mass Graves found in Izium Forrest
Russian official claim of attack on Special Forces Cormorant
If you can't get enough wars (and who can?) here's another one! The whole border between Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan has erupted. Both countries are moving their armies forwards.
This remote central Asian region is home to various obscure "stans" north of Afghanistan that used to be part of the Soviet Union. After independence, Russia continued to play policeman here and generally kept a lid on things. (Though today China is trying to exert influence and has become some of these countries' biggest trade partner.)
But it's like "defund the police" in the US. Russia suddenly appears gravely weakened so things are getting rowdy on the street. (This is thousands of miles from Ukraine, but the impact is being felt.)

And a Ukrainian missile (HIMARS?) hitting in the middle of occupied Kherson city. The one in the tweet below show the Court of Appeals building hit, directly behind the Regional Administration building in the foreground. According to Special Kherson Cat, citing Russian media reports, the building that was hit housed the offices of the Russian appointed administrators of the oblast and a meeting of their district heads was being held at the time.

And something happened in Valuyki in Belgorod oblast in Russia, just north of the Ukraine border near the Kharkiv oblast area recently retaken. Looks like air defense activity and a missile inbound on a flat trajectory out of the clouds. Our friend HIMARS again?

Among the stuff the Russians left behind in Kharkiv oblast, Ukraine has found huge stocks of artillery rounds compatible with their older Russian made artillery guns, ammunition that the West isn't able to provide in the quantities needed.
But Ukraine says that they are unwilling to take gifts from the Russians, so they will be returning all the Russian artillery shells, one by one.

You would think with the way things are going that Russian soldiers would not want to piss off the Ukrainians anymore than they already have. So if this is genocide on some scale then I would think the order came from the top.
How do mercenaries get paid….body count?

There are lots of internet rumors that the whole thing was staged by the Russians and is bogus, but I don't know why they would do that. Shooting just makes the city that the Russians control and may want to annex to Russia seem less secure, which isn't in their interest.
maybe they are doing it to cover up war crimes
maybe they have dumped bodies and weapons in there and then are shooting it up and will then film it and say they were returning fire against nazis
but they are not taking fire and there is a civilian car blocking the road where they have set up
in the second video you can see the Z tank firing into the air to a 1st floor height directly after soldiers have gotten out & run into that line of fire.
and it looks like a camera man with a camera has got out of the same APC & appears to be filming
The Dirty Orcs & their murderous hoards are probably killing civilians and claiming them to be resistance fighters as punishment for the Ukraine counter offensive.
