I'll be honest, I didn't have 'Russian Space Agency Raises Mercenary Army' on my 2023 bingo sheet arstechnica.com/space/2023/0…
It appears that Roscosmos really is recruiting soldiers for the Ukraine War

Funny take: ROSCOSMOS T-72 turret space programme Serious take: out of all the new corporate PMCs only Gazprom's ever appeared on the battlefield so this may just be vaporware

Loadshedding sucks, I get it, but... What else did we expect? The war has been raging since February, 🇪🇺 energy issues have been extensively discussed all Summer.
So, we have reports of 2 Russian missiles hitting the same area in Poland (unlikely that they both accidentally hit the same spot), and near the 220kV power line connecting Ukraine and Poland. Did those dumb motherfuckers do it on purpose??

Russian missiles hit Polish Przewodow directly at the electricity power line which connects the EU with Ukraine, close to Dobrotvirska power plant in Ukraine, an important energy hub. Map: courtesy of ENTSO-E, the EU organization of electricity network operators.

NATO & PL probably already discussed what to do when a shitty Russian cruise missile inevitably misses its target and lands in PL. Now what? Putin only understands strength and a weak response will be an open invitation for more.
2 killed in Russian missile attack on Poland. It won't lead to war but expect renewed calls for a no-fly zone and new weapons (Patriot SAMs or F-16 fighter jets) dw.com/en/russian-missiles-c…
Biden says 'unlikely' missile fired from Russia

US officials say initial findings suggest a missile that hit Poland was fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian missile.
