Kyiv once again. And grain exporting hub on the #Danube. Russia carried out air strikes on #Kyiv and the southern Ukrainian region of #Odesa early on Wednesday, killing a #civilian and causing a fire and damage at a Danube River port. During a nearly 3-hour #drone attack on Odesa, several agricultural and port facilities were damaged, and several fires were reported. Ukrainian air defence systems shot down all #missiles launched at Kyiv. Falling debris caused damage. #war https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukraines-defence-systems-engaged-repelling-air-attack-over-kyiv-ukraines-2023-09-06/

Nothing is changing in Russia's behavior. Another strike on Ukrainian port infrastructure on the Danube River. The attack on the port of Izmail in Ukraine's southern Odesa region hit warehouses and production buildings, and debris from drones that were shot down set ablaze several #civilian #infrastructure buildings on Monday. Air defense shot down 23 out of 32 #drones launched from Russia and from occupied Crimea. #war #Ukraine https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-strikes-ukraine-grain-exporting-port-ahead-putin-erdogan-talks-2023-09-04/ https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukraine-says-russian-drones-detonated-romanian-territory-during-danube-strike-2023-09-04/

Russia continues its attempts to destroy Ukraine's #civilian #infrastructure. Russian #drones hit #Danube River port infrastructure that is critical to Ukraine's grain exports, injuring at least 2 people in the #attack on southern parts of the #Odesa region on Sunday. Air defense shot down 22 of the 25 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched by Russia. Russia's likely goal is to provoke a global food crisis and famine. #Ukraine is a major producer of grains and oilseeds. #war https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russian-drone-attack-odesa-region-hits-port-infrastructure-injures-two-2023-09-03/

Thinking about how #WorldWarII was the first major conflict where dropping #bombs from planes on cities was a primary method of attack, realizing that that's why the scale of destruction was so much greater than #WorldWarI. Suddenly realizing that the ability of the #rich and powerful, who make decisions, and their #civilian supporters, to hide from the actual fighting may have been why #WWI wasn't "The #war to end all #wars", but #WWII, where no one could hide, killed the appetite.

Russia remains confident in its impunity. Russian air #strikes hit two western regions of #Ukraine, #Lviv and #Volyn, on Tuesday, killing three people and wounding more than a dozen. At least two people were also wounded in the southeastern city of #Dnipro. #Civilian infrastructure including schools and a hospital had been damaged in a total of eight Ukrainian regions in Tuesday's #attacks, which involved at least 28 cruise #missiles. 16 missiles were shot down. #war https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-strikes-western-ukraine-large-scale-air-attack-officials-2023-08-15/

Wednesday night's Russian #missile #attack on the Ukrainian city of #Zaporizhzhia (see previous post) was soon followed by another strike with #civilian casualties. Russian Iskander missiles struck a hotel in Zaporizhzhia on Thursday evening, leaving one dead and 16 injured. The damaged Reikartz Hotel is located in the city centre on the bank of the Dnipro River. The UN staff used the hotel when they worked in the town, said the humanitarian coordinator for #Ukraine. #war https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-attacked-civilian-building-zaporizhzhia-officials-2023-08-10/

The law set up a 2yr process for the #DOD to create a cadre of special prosecutors….The Offices of Special Trial Counsel, …will be…experienced #military #prosecutors who will report to the #civilian leaders of the military’s branches.

The final step needed to change the Uniform Code of #MilitaryJustice under the #law was a presidential #ExecutiveOrder. Lawmakers directed Biden to issue it by 12/2023. …Biden did so Fri, 5 mos ahead of the deadline.…

The US Treasury accused them of engaging in "mass #executions, #rape and #abductions” both in #Mali and the #CAR. The Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project - #ACLED - put the number of #civilian deaths in Mali at 2000 just in 2022.

Like @Lockdownyourlife , I also didn't have "Military #coup in #Russia" [1] on my 2023 bingo card.

This weekend will be #interesting, in the Chinese-proverb sense of the word.

[1] I'm not even sure what to call it. It's not actually the military doing it, it's a commercial/#mercenary #paramilitary. Officially their aim is to #topple the leadership of the #military, not the #civilian #government of the country, but I'm sure #Putin doesn't see it that way.

Media: #MarkHertling to #Acosta: "No condemnation will stop the attacks. This is the #russian way of war. Cluster munitions, targeting #civilian infrastructure. All those things add to the list of Geneva Conventions and Law of Land Warfare crimes the Russians have committed." Terrorists russians bomb hospitals, homes, schools, energy grids committing thousands of war crimes.
