A Russian source is putting out info that NATO advisors including a UK lieutenant Colonel have been captured in Azovstal
I'd be surprised to find an officer that senior on the ground acting in an advisor role so close to the action . Generally it's more junior ruperts and senior NCOs, especially if it's instructing in the use of supplied equipment.

Sounds more like a Russian false flag.

I think your right, it appears the Russians are "keen" to try and create some evidence of NATO involvement to lend credibility to their stories.

But when they turned up Zelensky said “oh, not u2 again”
Saw them in a club in my home town what seems like a million years ago, £2 to get in and that was £1.99 to much

To put the entrance fee into perspective it was 55p a pint back then :D

MONTREAL, Oct 1 (Reuters) - Russia failed to win enough votes for re-election to the United Nation's aviation agency's governing council on Saturday, in a rebuke of Moscow for aviation-related actions taken after its invasion of Ukraine

I've read that this is the latest Ukraine movement taking place.

They seem to have established an ability penetrate Russian lines without fear of being enveloped themselves.

They have been repeatedly using this tactic to advance.

As they do so they leave a route for the Russians to withdraw (hurriedly and without equipment). The result is Ukraine advances and re-equips at the same time.

Since leaving the EU because of Camerontwat and Brexshit we now need to have a UK badge on the rear in place of the GB sticker we used to have. Friends have been asked while in France if their motorhomes are from Ukraine :facepalm:

I haven’t so far been asked, but if so I’d answer Royaume Unis, which is the frog for United Kingdom. Perhaps I should get a RU sticker to help them out? :sisi1 Would I get asked?

I thought the UK badge thing was Boris's idea as a way of sticking 2 fingers up at the Krankie..?

I just had an interesting chat with a lady who came to me to ask if camping was permitted where I’m currently staying, until tomorrow. It took a little while to realise she was a Brit, she sounded German with her accent speaking French. Yes PowLo she did indeed.
