If you look at Mar’ino on Google maps, you can clearly see the Sanitarium. Then just pan out west along E-38 toward Rylsk and you’ll see three pig farms. These are Stepanovka-1, 2, and 3. I spent quite a few days at these three sites and had no idea that sanitarium even existed!

Have to imagine all this- seeing/reading/hearing has to be a bit surreal since you spent a good bit of time in this region.

Escalation imminent…Russian ICBM fired at Ukraine just now.

Russia Strikes Ukraine With Intercontinental Ballistic Missile, Air Force Reports

If this information is confirmed, it will be the first time this type of missile was used during the war.

Why would they launch ICBMs at Ukraine? Seems like a waste of missiles when they have shorter range ones that can do the same job. They must be having supply issues or this is a pure psyops play.

It’s posturing. They think it projects “you’re stepping this up, we can too” but it’s not really meaningful, as you indicate.

Potatoes up 65%? Who would have thought all those potatoes given to survivors of Russian troops would turn out to be an investment?!

And, If you look in the illiquid assets of the Russian NWF, you will see “ordinary shares of JSC "DOM.RF" - 137,000.0 million rubles” I don’t know how many shares there are of DOM.RF total, but this could be a plan for the Russian government to turn illiquid assets into liquid ones

even more interesting is DOM.RF sanction. The Russian NAtional Wealth Fund holds about 137,000.00 million Rubles of that stock. The thinking is Russian NWF uses that to turn illiquid assets into liquid assets ( when it needs cash )

But with the sanction- that just got a lot harder to do.

The belt is starting to tighten around the neck of the entire Russian economic and financial system. Russia is finding itself in a very precarious position going forward. One event -global or domestic - shock to the system can have a devastating effect and cause the collapse to go into overdrive.
