Towelie, and now by 2naSalit, and also listen to Anna From Ukraine daily. Not being moscow-centric as so much reporting in this country is, they paint an even grimmer (for ruzzia, at least) picture of just how badly putler's "three-day special military operation is going. The battlefield is a nightmare, and the ruzzian economy and civil society are tanking as the consequences of their war are being felt at home in ruzzia, as they damned well should be.

(editorial note to daily kos: there is no apostrophe in the possessive form of "its" )
