One of the reasons Ukraine is starting to eat Russia's lunch is Russian military officials were afraid to give bad news to Putin about Ukraine's drone offensive progress.

In other news, another Russian defense minister fell out of a window yesterday.

Pablo Picasso termine Guernica cette nuit là, entre le 27 et le 28 juin 1937 C est une icône de la peinture du XXe siècle. Exécutée par Pablo Picasso pendant la guerre civile espagnole, elle est à la fois un chef-d'œuvre et un symbole politique.
