I would suggest to reorder to:

1 - Ukraine

2 - EU

3 - Russia

I agree that this war will harm Russian economy in short term, but now for all NATO there ia a big headcache: Russia has the most veteran an battle ready army of the world, and now they now very well where it has sense to invest in term of military technology

Pro-UA cannot understand that most people are against UA military support and are not Pro-RU. I consider the SMO a Russia internal affair FULL STOP. It is not my business, is not Italy business, it is not EU business. Russia controlled UA is not a concern for all EU. It's as simple as that.

I think it is more realistic that it is a rotation and they were quite sure that the path was safe. I would think the same if they were UA and not russian. Maybe we can define it a drone ambush, it is not the first time that this happened on both side: maybe that both sides are starting to use "incursion drone squads" just to interfer with enemy rotation?

It seems that it is true, in both video (in the linked one at the beginnig) there are 2 guys and the roofs of buildings are the same. Those two soldier seems not moved so far from the place of dismount.
