Amber G., based on your interactions with folks in India who are in contact with higher echelons of GoI/Health Ministry etc., any estimates when GoI might start relaxing on certain Covid restrictions like mask mandates? Anyways, appreciate you keeping us informed on latest developments in this thread.

This report is from the Liar (Wire) but it claims that Defexpo deferment is due to conflicting stances taken by EU+US against displaying Russian armaments.

Just curious - since the Russians have captured most major military installations and airbases, presumably the captured hardware - including fighters etc - could be used ? Possible but so far the evidence post shoot down of 2 incidents indicate these are not even from Stingers but rather from Igla ...

This Twitter handle is probably Ukrainian...seems like Ruskies lost another Mi-35M earlier today https://twitter.com/UAWeapons/status/1500122979996508161?cxt=HHwWgoC94d_5wNEpAAAA The last 2-3 days have been very expensive for Russian Air Force...they have been forced to use dumb bombs as their stock...

The rate @ which Ruski aircraft & helis are being shot down...damn Stingers I guess! I guess the aircraft/helis are not the newest upgraded ones since I think the newest ones are supposed to have quite sophisticated EW & self-defense suites (MAWS, President-S)... Been reading conflicting rep...

Didn't say they were neutral...just posting a different POV. In fact, in my Euromaidan post, I expressed scepticism over the numbers reported.

Russian Su-25 was shot down and Mi-8 was subsequently shot down in rescue attempt. Not sure how you can make out mi-8 but apparently the rotor is visible. https://twitter.com/osinttechnical/status/1499698448416886785?s=21 To what are the Russian aircrafts falling prey to?

Seems like Javelin missiles have been very effective in Ukraine.

Take this FWIW...Center for Countering Disinformation (CCD) reports Russia's estimated combat losses from 24.02 to 04.03, noting that the data are being updated as the calculation is complicated by the high intensity of hostilities: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FM_YQKUXMAE7ZgV?format=jpg&name=med...

Now the political argument has shifted to the indecisive advisories by GoI starting from 15th...some liberal folks are saying that any sane student would chose to stay and continue the courses when GoI issues ambivalent and indecisive advisories.

That must be some shoot down...if a massive plane & supposedly armoured (at least cockpit) like Su-34 can crash with everything torn in to pieces...not much left except for crater and multiple fasteners and torn metal...unless it site was cleared off debris

Not sure if a certain comment was made in this thread but one of the poster said that secularism and the current Western outlook is akin to Christianity 2.0...reading the above reactions, I can't help but get the feeling that it is true.

Brilliant speech at Bundestag link The above statement echoes sentiments of several Indian diplomats as well (of course who condemn brazen Russian aggression) but basically US (probably deep state/Dems) along with NATO were egging Ukraine since 2014...of course the ultimate losers in this latest ga...

Comments from some of the students who were flown by GoI makes me sick to my stomach...absolutely no sense of gratitude and all sense of entitlement.

NaMo has asked IAF to help in students evac from Ukraine. C-17s & IL-76s to be deployed...I hope some Garuds will be part of the evac force...it would be good to show some strength along with diplomatic efforts.

Apparently EU diplomatic sources, Western intelligence believes that Ukr figures of Russian casualties & injured are correct i.e. around 4500 including injured & KIA.

What controversy of PhonePe founders? Misappropriation of funds...it was on news like last week. Regarding the Russian *artists :), seems like their earnings is held at the service provider level and that money can't be transferred to local Russian bank anymore due to SWIFT denial.

So West has pretty much weaponised any tools it has access to hurt Russia...of course it is Russian people who are getting hurt rather than the people in Power and/or Oligarch...I am taking on a daily basis.

LOL...it seems like the myth about Ghost of Kiev, the ace MiG-29 pilot who shot down impressive number of Russian aircrafts, uses footage from a DCS game.

It been satisfying to read on Twitter the amount of vitriol & melt down Western folks are having over India & UAE's abstain stance. At least one woman who is a JNU alum, is hoping that Western order "kicks" India down & comes hard...surprisingly most of them don't question Chin...

Amber G, the recent surge in cases in many countries, is it due to Omicron BA.1 or BA.2 variants?

When does India plan to open 3rd booster shot for adults over 18?

Further, whatever happened to the trails being conducted a...

So Satya Nadella & Sundar Pichai are included in this year's Padma Bushan awards list. Firstly, I hope they acknowledge publicly & thank GoI for awarding them rather than give in to the fear of reprisals from woke crowd for acknowledging/thanking award from GoI/NaMo admin and stay silent.
