Q for @EliotHiggins @RALee85 @UAWeapons @KofmanMichael - NATO govs saying no further significant rearming of Russian forces - yet videos appearing of military trains: - saw 1 from Russia too, if I can find it. More troops/weapons arriving from RU or not?
🧵It's #InternationalWomensDay and given the uptick in media coverage of #digitalsleuths: Let’s talk about representation in open source research!
When we use open sources to report on war, whose voices, experiences are we amplifying?

Like most groups, @amnesty is publishing analysis partly based on open sources from #twitter as well as Telegram, Facebook, VKontakte, etc. For us the focus has is on possible war crimes.

Social media is a critical source (great!) but it privileges certain types of violence. Violence that is less spectacular e.g. dehydration, starvation, lack of access to medical supplies and electricity, or racism.

NEW: Banning Facebook & criminalising journalism are not just the actions of a desperate man, they’re the equivalent of putting on a pair of bell-bottoms & dad-dancing across the internet.

I don’t know what’s going to happen next, no-one does. But the Kremlin’s reputation as invincible masters of information war has taken a beating. Putin’s blunt force command-&-control response v Zelensky’s social media mastery is like watching Stalin versus the TiKTok kids 
And the Ukrainian war isn’t just playing out across social media. That same social media is impacting the progress of Ukrainian ground operations in real time. The open source #OSINT community is acting as a global battalion of armchair intelligence officers

@antiputler_news In both videos, we can see bulletholes:
The one with the watermark is the victim's.
The one without one is the aftermath.

This might have blown my mind more than anything else today. Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov is wearing what appears to be Prada combat boots.
This is the full fascism propaganda film they put out. But given chechens’ rep as fearsome killers, I hope Ukrainians will take heart from fact there’s no way Kadyrov will want to get those £1,250 boots dirty
Lol. The Pravda combat boot. Who wore it better?
