Russia is skating on thin ice having violated the post World War 2 International Legal order. They also claimed genocide in eastern Ukraine and used that as justification for invasion but that has no legal merit at all. Russia's actions breach the legal principle of the prohibition of use of force, laid down in article 2 (4) of the UN Charter.
No one wants to go to war, but personally, I think sanctions will not be enough because China will bankroll them, and NATO is either going to have to put boots on the ground in the end, or this war will not only spread, but drag on for decades and costs millions of lives.

i agree, i've been saying for a bit now that we are already at war, we just don't admit it yet. Sanctions may not legally be classified as war, but when they cripple a country's economy, it is war. We are arming the ukranians and even offering them attacking jets. It doesn't need boots on the ground on the battlefield to be at war

Ukraine's state run nuclear company says electricity supplies to the former power plant at Chernobyl have been cut and has warned that radioactive substances could be released, because spent nuclear fuel cannot be cooled.
In a post of the telegram messaging app, Energoatom says a high-voltage line feeding the plant was disconnected after it was damaged during Russia's seizure of the station nearly two weeks ago.
Ukraine's Energy Minister German Galushchenko told the BBC that Ukraine has no access to monitoring information at the station and therefore cannot evaluate whether any radioactive substances are being released.
"We need to repair it as quickly as we can," Galushchenko said. But he added that there is "a special system of security in case of electricity cuts" which will allow the plant to operate for several days using diesel generators.
Earlier, the IAEA said it had stopped receiving monitoring data from the plant and warned that Ukrainian authorities had told them the plant's staff of about 210 workers have been on duty constantly for the past two weeks.

I heard that it only takes a few days to cool the stuff down and then it’s stable so hopefully it may be ok

The Ukrainian foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, said reserve diesel generators at Chernobyl nuclear power plant had a 48-hour capacity.
After that, cooling systems of the storage facility for spent nuclear fuel will stop, making radiation leaks imminent.

Remember the plant has not been in use for over 20 years and that a huge amount of work has been done to make it safer since the accident. It sounds scary what's happening there but I don't think there's the prospect of a major nuclear disaster
BBC:
But in a statement issued on Wednesday, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) sought to calm fears.
"Due to time elapsed since the 1986 Chernobyl accident, the heat load of the spent fuel storage pool and the volume of cooling water contained in the pool is sufficient to maintain effective heat removal without the need for electrical supply."
Meanwhile, radiation levels around the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant - the largest in Europe - and which was seized by Russian forces last week, are said to be normal.
Repairs are being carried out on a block damaged by fighting, Petro Kotin, the head of state nuclear firm Energoatom, said.

the biggest problem from Chernobyl was radioactive dust. Providing that stays sealed, there will be little to no exposure
The other nuclear plant is much more modern and has many more safety features. The biggest one being that there is no dust in the process, so even if there were a leak, it wouldnt disperse radiation the way Chernobyl did in the 80's.
Just as an aside, if nukes were fired off, once you get outside the blast zone, the biggest issue is radioactive dust and that can be maximised if it an in air explosion rather than a ground explosion

The labs at issue are part of a network of facilities with links to the Biological Threat Reduction Program, an element of a US government effort that began in the 1990s to reduce the threat of the former Soviet Union’s weapons of mass destruction programs, including in countries like Ukraine that had once been a part of the communist country. The Soviet Union maintained a massive bioweapons program and part of the role of the US-linked labs is to take custody over left-over supplies, as is the case with a central reference laboratory in Kazakhstan. Disease surveillance and public health have since become the major focus of labs in the network

USA has now said it has not agreed to supply Poland
with new F-16 jets
So they supply Ukraine with MiG jets
[The Pentagon has dismissed Poland’s plan to
hand the US its MiG-29 fighter jets
to boost Ukraine’s fight against Russia,
as Moscow officials said they were
ready to provide humanitarian corridors
on Wednesday morning for people
fleeing Kyiv and four other cities.
Washington appeared surprised by
the announcement by Polish foreign minister, Zbigniew Rau,
who said on Tuesday that his government
was “ready to deploy – immediately and
free of charge – all their MiG-29 jets to the Ramstein
airbase and place them at the disposal of the
government of the United States of America.”
The Pentagon appeared to reject
the proposal, saying it was not “tenable”.]

It's really the only way; Russia is never going to agree to anything without a guarantee of military neutrality on that border.
Another thing is, Ukraine could actually thrive as a neutral buffer zone between the West and Russia. Both have a strong interest in maintaining that distance. Frankly... if you take politics out of it and focus purely on the safety of civilians... both should pay Ukraine large sums, annually, to take that position.
nato are never going to agree for ukraine to join it in the next 20 years. Countries that join have to be stable and ukraine certainly isnt

This is plainly not true, the Russian people have no sway over the Russian government whatsoever. From what's coming out of Russia, the vast majority of Russian people don't want this to be happening, and with those who do it's because they've fallen for the propaganda. The same as the vast majority of wars tbqfh. These are complex power struggles between a tiny number of people - the civilian population has nothing to do with it.

He is one of seven oligarchs to be hit with fresh sanctions, including asset freezes and travel bans.
The list also includes billionaires Igor Sechin and Oleg Deripaska, both seen as allies of Vladimir Putin.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said "there can be no safe havens" for those who have supported the invasion.

"Let's Dance" 2022: Russian dancer fined over Ukraine war
"Let's Dance" star Ekaterina Leonova comes from Russia. For this, she is now hostile on the net.
Cologne – Ekaterina Leonova (34) is one of the professionals who celebrated her comeback in this season of "Let's Dance". This time, the 34-year-old can try to win the title of "Dancing Star 2022" with Bastian Bielendorfer. Meanwhile, the native Russian has to deal with completely different difficulties because of her origin and the war in Ukraine.
"Let's Dance" star Ekaterina Leonova: Hostility over Ukraine war
The professional dancer has apparently received numerous hate messages. She has now reacted to this both in a post in her Insta story and in a video published by RTL. In her story, she justified herself as follows: "Yes, I was born in Russia, but I am not responsible for politics in this country."
In addition, Ekaterina explained that her family lives only 300 km from the border and therefore of course she is not well with the situation. Nevertheless, around the war in Ukraine, she called for: "Please stop blaming me for Putin's policies! I am for peace!"
"Let's Dance" star Ekaterina Leonova defends herself against hate comments
In her video statement, the 34-year-old first went into more detail about what kind of comments she has to deal with. Apparently, some viewers were bothered by the fact that she danced "in a short dress in front of the camera" while her "country attacks another". She then justified herself with the fact that it was her job (read more news about Celebrity & TV on RUHR24).
In addition, Ekaterina Leonova explained that this profession "connects many people and also people from many nations". Basically, the successful dancer feels it is "a great pity that you now judge by origin". Finally, the "Let's Dance" star wished for peace on social media and peace between all countries of the world.
"Let's Dance" star Ekaterina Leonova distances herself from Putin's politics
While Ekaterina Leonova has distanced herself from the politics and war of Vladimir Putin (69), this is far from true for all celebrities. A much-discussed counter-example is former Chancellor Gerhard Schröder (77). Since he has not yet spoken out against the Russian ruler, Borussia Dortmund, for example, withdrew his honorary membership.
The chief conductor of the Munich Philharmonic, Valery Gergiev (68), also did not distance himself despite an ultimatum. Dieter Reiter (63), Lord Mayor of the City of Munich, then drew the consequences and dismissed him without notice.

"some"? y'alls argument is that the "vast majority" of people are against the war.
if the "vast majority" stood up, what? 100m people?, you think putin wouldnt feel the consequences?Like I said we're in the real world, not a movie. Name a time in history an entire country has jumped to arms to topple their own government. And I'm talking world powers here, not coups in small nations, and even then, that's not what a coup looks like.

Lions rescued in Kyiv arrive at Dutch NGO’s shelter in Spain
Young lions and an African wild dog rescued from a wildlife shelter in Kyiv last week arrived safely at a Stichting AAP shelter in Spain, the Dutch foundation announced on Thursday. The animals are safe and sound and seem to be doing well, the foundation said on Facebook.
"Here, we can continue to work on their recovery and provide these animals a beautiful and especially safe life," the foundation said on Facebook. "They are now in quarantine, where we can examine their condition better. After that, we expect to give them access to a beautiful outdoor habitat where they can enjoy the warm Spanish sun."
The lions and wild dog were rescued from the Wild Animal Rescue shelter near Kyiv by employees of the shelter, who risked their lives to make sure the animals were safe. They managed to sneak the animals across the border to Poland last Thursday, reportedly under fire from Russian soldiers. The animals spent a few days in Poland to recover from the journey and then continued on to the Stichting AAP shelter in Spain. The trip took about 25 hours, with regular stops to feed and water the animals.
Stichting AAP said it received many heartwarming messages from people concerned about the animals. "Thank you so much for this!" The foundation asked for donations for the lions' and wild dog's care. According to the foundation, caring for a lion costs 75 euros a day and 35 euros per day for a wild dog.

LVIV, Ukraine, March 11 (Reuters) - An adviser to Ukraine's president said on Friday Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko was meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow as Russian jets carried out what Ukraine said was a false-flag attack on Belarusian villages.
Moscow did not immediately comment on a statement by Ukraine’s border service that several Belarusian border villages had been bombed by Russian warplanes to create a reason for Belarus to join Russia’s war against Ukraine.

LVIV, Ukraine, March 11 (Reuters) - An adviser to Ukraine's president said on Friday Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko was meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow as Russian jets carried out what Ukraine said was a false-flag attack on Belarusian villages.
Moscow did not immediately comment on a statement by Ukraine’s border service that several Belarusian border villages had been bombed by Russian warplanes to create a reason for Belarus to join Russia’s war against Ukraine.
