Very poor tactics displayed by this Russian armored force so close to Kyiv. They're well within range of Ukrainian artillery in Kyiv, they're on an obvious avenue of approach, and they still decided to bunch up like this, leaving them more vulnerable to indirect fire.

Looks like the cargo section for an Iskander-M 9M723 ballistic missile carrying cluster munitions. Compare to the 3rd photo from Karabakh.

Russia has made it clear that Ukrainian membership in the EU would be a red line (that's what drove the Maidan), as are a number of domestic policies it is pursuing. There was no recent movement for Ukrainian membership in NATO, which means it is a poor explanation for this war.
Even if NATO had declared Ukraine would never join, that would not have stopped this war. This was also driven by Ukraine's political orientation and Russia losing influence. Putin even said that Ukraine would present a threat even if it didn't join NATO. 2/
Again, you can track comments from Putin and senior Russian officials over the past two years to see how the rhetoric shifted, largely in response to policies Zelensky pursued. Putin devoted an entire security council meeting to Ukraine in May after Viktor Medvedchuk's arrest. 3/

Photos of what looks like a T-80BVM catastrophic loss, captured T-80U tank, and destroyed Russian trucks.

Two more tanks behind that T-80U. Possibly one or two T-80BVM. Looks like one is heavily damaged but not clear about the other.
Heavily damaged is an understatement, it lost its turret. So there are four tanks.
