1. Couple smart ones left, I guess. Hopefully, he continues repenting for his misdeeds.

2. An orc is a mindset not a race.

   In all seriousness, I am under the impression as someone with zero access to classified information that there is indeed a loose array of pro-Ukrainian Russians *in Russia* who are in some way or another clandestinely helping Ukraine or undermining Putin.

   *Someone* has to be helping with those internal drone strikes

3. Doesnt he get like half a million dollars bounty for doing this?

4. Is this article intentionally vague? They lured the pilot? Or did the pilot defect? And what… They just killed the crew? ” There were two crew members in the helicopter with the pilot, and they were eliminated by the Defence Intelligence. “?

   Trying to understand exactly what happened.

5. Russian pilot chose wisely.

6. hmm, Its also possible that the 2 so called “eliminated” also surrendered without issue???

   If they surrender, then they will be considered traitors too and that’s bad news for the families. Tagging them like that would be the best case scenario, regardless of the truth that surrounds their fate.

7. I’m sure Ukraine will put the helicopter to good use.
