#Ukraine: 9. UK Intel says RU is legislating to increase the recruitment age from 18-27 to 21-30, as too many students are escaping the draft by claiming study exemption. #tweet100 Image
#Ukraine: 10. The UN/Turkey have brokered another grain deal so UA can export millions of tonnes of agricultural products, but RU says it has only agreed the deal for 60 days, not the 120 days of the previous one.
#Ukraine: 11. Lastly, here are more of the insane ravings that appear daily on Russian State TV! If these people were in charge we would all be destroyed for not being Russian! Let's hope Putin is more of a realist. #tweet100
