  1. So the Orcs themselves think that the actual situation is bad enough to provoke panic in most people.

    Interesting.

    Keep hitting until they break, Ukraine!!

  2. Time to hack their news networks and show Russian assets being blown up and orks fleeing and/or dying.

  3. This is why it’s so important to attack Moscow. Damage isn’t important, the whole point is to show the Muscovites that 1) there’s a war, and 2) they’re not safe.

  4. Russia does this because it had drawn a red line wrt using western cruise missiles (storm shadow) on crimea.
    Russia had claimed that crimea is the same as russian territory due to the sham referendum it held there after 2014, and therefore the taboo of using western weaponry to attack russian territory applies.
    Ukraine seemed to respect that red line, until July 19 when it used storm shadow to blow up that enormous ammo/resorce dump near that airfield in Eastern crimea. Russia pushed hard on its domestic info sphere to make it look as if that was a drone attack/its red line was still respected, and bombed the Danube port few days later

  5. Some German once said: “I knew the war was running bad for us when our victories where coming closer to Berlin”.
