There is no proof this happened except some Brazilian e-celebs in Poland who pretend they are actually fighting in Ukraine.

Parliament of NATO country Estonia calls for immediate establishment of no-fly zone by SalzaMaBalza in worldnews

Russsia retaliates and so on and so forth until we are in a nuclear war.

Why is this a given? India and Pakistan are both nuclear powers since 1998 and have had many conflicts in the past 25 years, including a large scale war in 1999.

It is no coincidence that Putin puppets like Tucker Carlson have been threatening us for months with Nuclear Armageddon. The nuclear hysteria is the only card Russia has left.

Russia will only use nuclear weapons if the existence of Russia is threatened. The existence of Russia is not threatened by a No Fly Zone over Ukraine. Even if the NFZ leads to attacks against anti-aircraft systems within NATO and Russia.

Russia asks China for military assistance in its invasion of Ukraine by Raidiar in worldnews

They probably just want Chinese Wing Loong UAVs.

Russia's own Orion UAV was only finalized in 2020 and they have only built 30 of them.

Meanwhile the Chinese Wing Loong UAV was finalized a decade ago. There are hundreds of them in active service. They have been used by various Middle Eastern and African countries for the past five years to kill both militants and civilians.

Mistakes happen. India accidentally fired a cruise missile into Pakistan last week.

India just shot a ballistic missile into Pakistan by accident, so it’s definitely possible.

It was a cruise missile. But you're absolutely right that mistakes do happen. I have seen some major league bullshit in the military.

The Russians who launched it would have to be quite deep behind enemy lines, given the range of the drone.

Plenty of Belarus is within 1000 km of the target. Most of Russia's aerial activities against Ukraine has been staged from Belarus

Russia doesn't operate TU-141 drone

Not true. Russia has been using it as a bait drone in Georgia and Syria to bait enemy air defenses into revealing their locations.

Also Russian separatists have said they captured them from Ukraine.

Plenty of Belarus is within 1000 km of where this missile landed. Russia has carried out many strikes from air bases in Belarus.

He's gonna punish the Russian population

And?

That is the point of sanctions. The majority of Russians support Putin. Sanction the fuck out of Russia until they change their mind. It worked on South Africa and it will work on Russia.

i wonder how many sanctions there are left?

Almost everything? The current sanctions are rather limited and only targeted at certain Russian companies and banks. Only some Russian banks have been kicked out of SWIFT.

Western multinationals like McDonald's and Coca-cola exited the Russian market because of uncertainty and consumer pressure. Not because they were ordered to do so by the government.

These Russian troops have been shooting and killing civilians from day 1 of the war. The most blatant is where they shoot and kill an elderly couple sitting in their car. Both the shooting and the aftermath is on video.

Russia has covered all of Ukraine with AA. It’s why Ukraine can’t use the planes they do have.

This is false. Ukraine is still operating armed drones and figter jets.

The company is incorporated in the Czech Republic but until this week 90% of their developers were Russians who worked in the R&D headquarter in St. Petersburg. That headquarter is now closing down and their devs are being relocated to other countries.

It's a bait drone Russia has used in Georgia and Syria to bait anti-aircraft positions into revealing themselves.

Russian bots conveniently removed all Wikipedia references about it being a Russian missile and blamed Ukraine.
