From the Saker, does this mean that the RF will take the whole of Ukraine, or was it just a throw away comment.
“This change was implicitly confirmed on 28 July by Dmitry Peskov, Press Secretary to President Putin, who declared that ‘the whole of the Ukraine needs to be denazified’.”

If you listen to what Sergei Lavrov said about defending the Donbas and Russia from the longer range weapons the US is sending to Ukraine, it would appear that most of Ukraine is now the battle zone. Russia will stop when those weapons can no longer hit Russia. Of course, if Russia takes all of Ukraine, those weapons will be in Poland, right next door. So who can say when it will end?
Ah, the pampers-clad woman had landed in Guam. Might try to fly to Taiwan from there, instead of to Singapore. Anyway, her plane should be forced to land on the Chinese mainland, or interfere with its electronic system, so it’d go feed the fish. Poor fish!😃

utc@3…Ukies appear to upping their game outside the Donesk Arc, so it may take a year at least a year for the RF get to Odessa, or a future SMO as Crimea has now been attacked somewhat successfully.
Yesterday big photo op in Odessa Z and G7, that’s throwing down the gloves, now hitting Crimea, getting to a point where, Money Talks, Bullshit Walks….so Russia may have to Put Up, or Shut Up.

The targeted strike on the billionaires house, I think he was home, may be a new ‘phase’.
