    One hopes that said serviceman is not still with his unit. I imagine they’ll be digging pretty viciously for the mole.

    Unless there is no such individual and Ukraine obtained this info through other means and is just trying to send Russia on a snipe hunt, lmao

      I hope it’s not an informant because the article gives a lot of details that would potentially give away his identity. Also how explicitly they are being about were they got the info from may be an indication of a psyop, otherwise this would be fucked.

      I would not be surprised if the “leak” is disinformation and the data was obtained through other means.

      What’s better than exposing your enemies? Exposing your enemies and provoking distrust and infighting, of course!

      Either way, a job well done.

        Yeah, sounds a bit dodgy. A Russian suddenly discovering his conscience after more than two years of being involved in a war of aggression and countless atrocities? Hmm.

    May they be hunted to the ends of the earth, and the only peace they find be buried 6 feet undeground.

    I’d love to hear from those responsible about the rationale behind this strike. It reminds me of the World Central Kitchen strike by the IDF

      Mix of terror bombing, probing escalation and reactions internationally and demonstrating that they can do as they please, crushing hope within and outside their influence. The usual cynical Realpolitik shit, with a dash of sadistic, immature enjoyment of power on the psychological side.
