Also of interest, confirmation that Russian is using up brand new 2022 production 152mm artillery ammo. Which means that they've exhausted their existing stockpiles of older ammo in at least that caliber.

Apparently Serbia is playing on both sides of the fence and has been for some time now.

Ukraine Weapons Tracker (UAWeapons) posted images from Ukrainian forces showing Serbian made 122mm extended range rockets.

Serbia has made public comments about supporting Russia, but recently refused to sell artillery ammo to Russia.

According to UAWeapons 3500 Serbian rockets and "other" ammo were sent to Ukraine.

At least 26 people have been killed and dozens are injured after two trains collided in northern Greece, authorities say https://cnn.it/3EGfjrV

Russia has also shown images of debris from one of the drones that hit the refinery and another that crashed near Moscow.

Refinery drone was an elderly Tu-141/142. Moscow drone was a newer Ukrainian UJ-22.

This is important for a couple of reasons.

1: It's the largest Russian refinery and fuel/oil storage facility on the Black Sea coast and the primary way that Russia ships oil out of the Black Sea.

2: It's supposedly outside of Starlink range. So either Musk shutting down Starlink for long range was a lie. Or the Ukrainians found a workaround.

3: That place takes up 1/3 of the city. If it goes up it'll take out most of the city and port. Think Lebanon times 75+.

It now appears that you are allowed to support Ukraine at Birdsite, but only if you pay for a Blue Check.
This makes the following sentences about Twitter's obligation to be a neutral platform utterly contradictory and nonsensical.
