Yes Ch4HDnews and LBC Matt Frei
was just Live talking to Ian Dale on LBC.

He went for a drink with Stuart Ramsey of SkyNewsHD
he said he viewed his phone footage of the attack
before it went online

He said he (Stuart)
was lucky one bullet missed his vital organ.

He said they were Russian hit squads

an Update by the BBC

[The BBC is temporarily suspending its journalists' work
in Russia, in response to a new law which
threatens to jail anyone Russia deems to have
spread "fake" news on the armed forces.
BBC Director-General Tim Davie said the
legislation "appears to criminalise the process
of independent journalism".

The Kremlin objects to the conflict being
called a war, instead calling it
a "special military operation".

BBC News in Russian will still be
produced from outside the country.]

You know this is the Ukraine War thread

And WW3 could start like WW1 did

Look how crazy that was started


Spoiler:

In 1914, the Great Powers were divided into two opposing alliances, the Triple Entente, consisting of France, Russia, and Britain, and the Triple Alliance, made up of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. Tensions in the Balkans came to a head on 28 June 1914 following the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the Austro-Hungarian heir, by Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb. Austria-Hungary blamed Serbia and the interlocking alliances involved the Powers in a series of diplomatic exchanges known as the July Crisis. On 28 July, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia; Russia came to Serbia's defence and by 4 August, the conflict had expanded to include Germany, France and Britain, along with their respective colonial empires. In November, the Ottoman Empire, Germany and Austria formed the Central Powers, while in April 1915, Italy joined Britain, France, Russia and Serbia as the Allied Powers.

Zelenskyy has just [REDACTED]. So yes we’re in a world war.

That's lovely Nicky

MTVN 05-03-2022 02:28 PM

Well done Nicky :clap1:

I'm going to donate a bit as well, I read today that financial donations are a lot more useful atm than any goods because of the logistical issues but you obviously have to be careful where exactly you're sending your money

Alf 05-03-2022 02:39 PM

I'm not gonna donate any money. Does that mean I've done something bad?

Alf 05-03-2022 02:40 PM

Well done Alf

bots 05-03-2022 02:51 PM

i donated a bit as well. I can't sit on my hands and do nothing

NO it’s personal choice of course...I would like to think if the UK was in this situation people in random European countries might spare a thought and a few Euro’s from the comfort of their armchairs, thats how I look at it

It’s not going to make any difference to my life to part with a few pounds, it’s the only thing I can do to try to help people fleeing war..

I wouldn't trust it to get to the places you're told it will go. Not all of it.

When this is all over Russia will be paying to rebuild everything for years to come. They just need a bit of money now to survive

Id give items like old clothes , toiletries etc. Never money though. Often it goes to corrupt officials or used on weapons
