  • @Mr_Buscemi is right. It’s about Prigozhin, the leader of the Wagner group and Putin’s ex-best friend getting removed out.
    Ever since the armed rebellion that he attempted the Russian state media apparatus and all of the millbloggers as a whole have been ordered to remove Prigozhin completely, to erase him from the public view.

    And that is similar to soviet tactics from Stalin’s time, where similarly erasures have been performed.
    The most well known ones was the picture in which Stalin appeared next to Yezhov, Yezhov former chief of NKVD eventually fell from Stalin’s grace, long story short he got a sham trial and later executed.










  • Can you sauce this with some context? Is the Crimean bridge a propaganda/extending Russo-imperialism project for Russians, as the kerch bridge was before the funni?

    No, no. Nothing of that sort.

    The Chonhar bridge connects Kherson oblast to Crimea.
    The problem is that this bridge one of the very few locations that Russians can use https://i.imgur.com/lluvBfW.png

    The bridge that they just bombed is the one shown in red. Dark blue puts Russians well within HIMARS range, while light blue puts them just barely at the end of that 50km HIMARS range.

    The other option that Russians can use to get to Crimea is through Kerch bridge.

    Imho, the bombing of the Chonhar bridge should be seen as the official start of the coming Siege of Crimea.
