This appears to be pretty standardized at this point. For a while now we've seen Russian soldiers with shotguns accompanying air defense assets when they move out of their covered position. This is done to protect against the small Ukrainian FPV drones.

Two things to keep an eye on if this plan gains traction. First are 'buffer zones' that Russia may push for along the border between the two countries. Second are restrictions on the Ukrainian military following a peace deal. 3/

Stories circulating today that Putin is open to negotiations if they're led by Trump. From what I've seen so far, these are the same demands Russia has made for some time with one exception; nothing has been made public about the future size or capabilities of the Ukrainian military. 1/

It happened again. Russian soldiers executed Ukrainian POWs on camera. They're not trying to hide this, they're celebrating it on Telegram. This is Putin's Russia, this is who Ukraine is fighting.

Putin's escalation threat is based on a made up version of the war. Then again, this is how they've escalated in every case so far. Made something up then acted on it. 4/

Preston Stewart @prestonstew.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

If that were the case, totally understandable. There are rumors (likely true to a degree) of intel sharing, but nothing outside of low quality Russian propaganda, to back up NATO troops on the ground manning and firing these systems. 3/

Preston Stewart @prestonstew.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

His claim is that this represents NATOs joining the war because NATO troops will be firing on Russian targets in Russia. NATO joining the war directly will be met with 'appropriate decisions'. 2/

Preston Stewart @prestonstew.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Putin's threats about escalation aren't about US weapons striking in Russia. In past statements he has made the claim that advanced western weapons cannot be operated by Ukrainians, therefore the entire process is done by NATO soldiers from target identification to launch. 1/

"the US and Europe have upped the ante and lifted restrictions on the use of all types of weapons. As was rightly noted, there was no such restriction, because they [Ukrainians] have been firing missiles at Crimea and the LPR and DPR since the moment they first entered service. 1/2

They’re seriously freaking out about the permission to strike with ATACMS. They’re even being paranoid over some "breakthrough on a section of the front."

Russia has been using their allies weapons to kill Ukrainians for years. Ukraine now being able to target military sites in Russia with US weapons is their catching up to where the war already is. 2/2

I wish the people so concerned today about something leading to WWIII would have been this loud when Russia started using North Korean and Iranian munitions to strike in Ukraine. 1/2

In Gaza the claim was that it was all fake. AI generated, maybe Israeli actors or maybe even filmed outside of Gaza. In Lebanon it’s that the footage is real, but old. From past conflicts just now released to the public.

Russia launched one of their largest missile and drone attacks of the war overnight into Ukraine. Reportedly over 210 total munitions were fired, 120 missiles and 90 drones. Power outages reported across the country, overall damage assessment is still underway.

Is Khamenei dead/in a coma? That's the rumor, but that's all it is right now, a rumor. The only sources where I'm seeing it reported are pretty speculative in nature and tend to be about 50% accurate in their initial assessments. Wait and see situation.

For what it’s worth, no channels I follow and trust across the Middle East are even mentioning the claim.
