Note what looks like polystyrene being added to make the Molotovs more potent - acting like a plasticiser or home made napalm.

A truly horrible but sadly necessary defensive weapon in this context unless the world rearms or better reinforces #Ukraine
This image says it all wife’s, sisters, mothers, daughters, grandmothers forced to prepare for war.

#StandWithUkriane 🇺🇦 Image
Saw this the other day and wanted to add it to the thread

A well known #Ukranian politician who needs to the know the world
#StandWithUkraine
Kind of @theJeremyVine to highlight #DanutaDanielsson taking a swipe at far right moron.

Powerful historic moment in the back drop of #UkraineInvasion
Sadly the loses amid the bravery and kindness - speak volumes.

#StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦
Thanks to @BBC @theJeremyVine for stitching both the clips together

How many of us can picture our mother or grandmother doing similar 💙💛🇺🇦
Then in contrast theres this Russian gent shredding the invading Russian forces

We need an army of Russians like him shouting down the #UkraineInvasion
Cannot believe this one - have they taken leave of their senses

Russian security forces - takes down Russia army choir for singing about peace!

If you need to win wars by conquering grandparents - you’ve already lost!

Cross posting the parallels from #TiananmenSquare Tank Man to #Ukraine citizens blocking armour columns
Mini guide to survival in a war zone priorities:

1 Shelter + safety

2 Water + essential medical

3 Attacks + emergency response

4 Defences + security

5 Escape + evasion

6 Food + resources

7 Support networks + communications

8 Short to long term contingency

💙🇺🇦💛
Even in dark times when all is lost - glimmers of hope arise

#StandWithUkriane
Nothing beats showing what’s in store - Russian forces do well to defect or surrender & save bloodshed 💙🇺🇦💛

#StandWithUkriane
As a security professional would never have dreamed of condoning cyber attacks

However this groups #StandWithUkriane & managed to take down various Russian news outlets & assets

The rule book has been tossed & we’re redefining everything
Excellent guide on How to Defend a City

Note web link is currently slow to load & hopefully someone PDF the info

Must read for #Ukraine civilian resistance

How to target harden

How to use urban environment to your advantage

How to construct defences & strong points
Interesting one - yet to be verified from multiple sources

Read both parts of the post

Headline: Reports of Russian forces dumping fuel intentionally - essentially deserting over fears of drawing fire.
Good post on the #CyberWarfare where attacks undermine but avoids pushing the red button.

Believe international community are assisting #Ukriane fend of cyber attacks - whilst #Hacktivists are crippling #Russian assets & platforms,

💙💛 #StandWithUkriane 💙💛
More footage of 9( #Ukraine citizens stopping armour columns

Literally

💙💛 #StandWithUkriane 💙💛
Extraordinary clip of ordinary people vs tanks in #Ukriane
This is absolutely epic

Yes you read right #Ukriane track for nicks #Russian APC!

Sadly only a matter of time before they start boobytrapping abandoned kit - be very very careful at #UkraineResistance #ukrainecivilians

💛💙 #StandWithUkriane 💛💙
Bravery can come from the most unexpected places

Hope this is truly authentic & more senior officers will follow from #RussianArmy #BelarusArmy #ChechenForces

Lay down arms, surrender, defect & #StandWithUkriane 🇺🇦💙💛
Fellow #Scots have sent a very personal message to #Putin

Rough translation - most likely #Glaswegian or similar dialects

“Hello Putin

(Your) out of your mind vr go away on your (shopping) trolly

You stupid looking (vr dull mined) - bad tempered - pair of small testicles” Image
Remember the #Ukrainans from snake island but now appears #Georgian sailors have adopted similar responses
Singing off for the day - leave you this one

Believed to be a #Ukraine grandpa picking a fight with a #Russian soldier - who fires off a round into the ground

💙💛 #StandWithUkraine 💙💛 - heck think this old boys standing for his country 🇺🇦
I like it

#Ukraine sailor try’s to sink Russian arms exporter yacht

He #StandWithUkraine 💙💛
Can’t figure this one - if they are promoting peaceful resistance - then why is #Belarus dispatching troops into #Ukraine

Too tired now to figure it out but can only hope it’s true 💙💛🇺🇦
Seen few clips now of #Molotovs being deployed against #Russian forces

anticipate casualty count to sadly rise on both sides

#StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦
A picture speaks a thousand words even in silence
Amen 🙏

When I was younger it was cool to hang around the back of the bike sheds

Now it’s hanging around with an NLAW 👇
#Ukraines be very careful accessing abandoned #Russian hardware or equipment

They are infamous for boobytraps or spiking kit - report locations to nearest 🇺🇦 army unit

Also kids will be curious but these are deadly war machines - this is not a game

💙💛 #StandWithUkriane 💙💛
Takes seconds to boobytrap or track a military vehicle & believe me this won’t escape the #Russians

As per my previous post be bloody careful or better yet leave it to #Ukraine 🇺🇦 armed forces

Moral booster - #Urkaine snake island troops all alive

💙🇺🇦💛

They look awfully worried about civilians Heckling

As a sign off tonight four images from the mass of material today which sums up

We need more of this - much more of this from the international community before the air bridges & resupply routes are severed.

@GOVUK what assets are being deployed to #StandWithUkraine
Needs more of these also

Reports of Netherlands also dispatching 200 Stinger Missile to #StandWithUkraine
Now Germany subscribes to send 1000 anti-tank & 500 stingers

#Russians pls you-have to stand down and get they boys & girls back home. This is a war which can’t be won as the world #StandWithUkriane

⚠️ #EssenFire

Images of a burn out residential block earlier this morning from German City of Essen.

Reports 3 people take to hospital for smoke inhalation
#EssenFire

Building appears to be low to mid rise & completely burned out after 100 occupants evacuated.

khaleejtimes.com/world/germany-…
#EssenFire

Reports suggest fire started around 2am & spread to block involvement within 20mins

Appears the fire compartments failed early stage by what mechanisms is unknown

@ahillslegal @LisaR8624 Few things

building safety risk is classed as a risk arising from

I) fire spread

II) structural collapse or partial collapse

Not risks of damp or mould etc

Note limit to “fire spread risk” not ignitability, combustibility or flammability.

Fancy legalese again by @govuk
@ahillslegal @LisaR8624 @GOVUK Ok assuming the material had a potential to ignite, combust etc

Are they only looking at the consequences of the spread and not the probability

Will they introduce risk grades low, medium, high or very high

Which ones will make the cut for funding - all, some, very high etc
@ahillslegal @LisaR8624 @GOVUK What test or performance standard will be applied to fire spread risk

Inhibit, restrict, limit to first item, component, compartment or other extent

Interesting fire spread picks-up not only cladding, balconies, insulation but cavity barriers & then compartments, fire doors etc
