Ooh, russian ships above the water with functioning engines. Well done Russia!
~~in show of force~~ to escape Ukrainian drones.
You mean to show how fast they can run away?
"Show of force"
We've been watching your show of force for few years now and it's been unremarkable to say the least. A country without a navy has sunk your Black Sea fleet with modified jet skis. Just imagine what a country with navy could do.
Show of "force".
The sheer force of will to keep those leaky bastards topside...
Wow, they actually made it, well done russkies! Next, try to get the aircraft carrier work at least a week. That will put the fear into the hearts of every westerner.
Can be sunk with an RC boat with firecrackers taped to it...scary scary.
Looks like it’s time for Ukrainian Special Forces to go to work.
Maybe they're looking for their missing sub too?
Lol they can't even protect their own ships next to Crimea. Homemade ski-do torpedos get the job done.
Meanwhile they're rocking a small flotilla geographically near the US?
"Oh but they could have nukes" the Russians already have ICBMs, like who tf cares? At this point all they can really do is threaten undersea cables or underwater gas pipelines
since this has no obvious strategic benefit, I'm starting the rumor that Putin is secretly on board and is going to Cuba for cancer treatment.
Steady hands.
Picture: man showing his willie out of pants
lol
Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.
