Yep, all of the targeting during the period the ICC cites was mostly to disable the electrically powered rail grid as far as I know.
Kharkiv the past few months would be harder to argue there.

Targetting electrical infrastructure is technically a warcrime, and the persistent targeting of the grid in Kharkiv this year with intent to slowly depopulate the city is probably the first real war crime the Russians have been responsible for in the war so far.
ICC have solid jurisdiction because Russians haven’t been white since 2022.
I wonder if this is a way to do insurance/tax write offs for unsold stock? Seems like they filled their pre orders very quickly if they have stock sitting around.
Yanis Varoufakis saying he’s dead.

When the brainworms get tangled into a special and unique bundle.
Ukraine and their backers aren’t capable of agreeing to this, they’re just too deep in the fantasy. The only reason I can think of for making this declaration again, which is really just a call for Ukraine to recognize the current reality of the situation, is for posterity.
A last off ramp before the Russians commit more and then demand more for resolution. It could only be a matter of time before Russia insists on Kharkiv oblast as a response to the terror bombing of civilians in Belgorod.
Putin continuing to be a boring liberal rules-based leader.
Bunch of unenforceable demands that will just lead to more war in another decade. Why even bother.
Airlines are desperate for anything with wings they can get their hands on right now, and even then they don’t want to take the chance on Boeing.
Ukraine is starting to topple, and the US has to ensure the right sort of people maintain control of whatever is left.
Who would win in a coup, the depleted conscript armed forces, or well armed, ideological paramilitaries with outside funding and direction?
Azov was fed fresh fit ideologically charged recruits to bring the numbers back up.
Young fit recruits who are below the conscription age and join up willingly are too valuable to send to the meatgrinder units that convert 27-60 year old males into fertilizer. Instead, they are sent to more bespoke units like Azov.
The RAND Corporation study that was used as the template for America’s war in Ukraine specifically outlines the scenario where Russia reindustralises and wins. The conclusion is: this is unlikely, but would be catastrophic.
It’s noteworthy they’ve called this on a Scottish school holiday. It indicates they’re worried about a Labour resurgence in Scotland taking seats from the currently weak Scottish National Party (known on hexbear for attempting things like the Gender Reform Bill)
Georgia is really doing well to demonstrate that if you kick the NGO nests, they’re just packed full of imperialist agents.
Poor Armenia and Georgia though. They’re really stuck in bad positions.
Not to disrespect him but he was just a guy. The entire Iranian leadership is committed to their path and a couple of people dropping out of the sky or getting assassinated hasn’t previously, and won’t now, change their course.
Ukraine speedrunning the collapse of Donbas by redirecting troops into what looks like bait.
Kanakay is going to end up like Hawaii if they don’t get the French out now.
Not too terrible?
UK has been changing laws in the past few years so that bikes must be fully considered legitimate traffic by other drivers. It makes sense to increase the expectations on cyclists to actually act and have the same responsibilities as traffic too, rather than a weird hybrid. All of this is in lieu of just creating decent cycle infrastructure, which the UK is no longer capable of doing since it’s a developing nation larping as an imperial power.
There’s no reason for people wearing patches like that to ever reach a prisoner collection point. They can go back into their bunker followed by a couple of grenades.
Visceral dislike is how I’d describe it too.
In order to lie the way they do, they need to know the truth, and yet materially gain from lying. They are demonic manifestations of evil untruth. They are not capable of redemption, their entire existence is manipulation for gain. I will never advocate for mercy for the stenographers.
