it would be part of the flattening Ukraine in response to long range strikes into Russia.

I guess Putin is wise enough to not take the bait, atleast not yet

ye, hard to tell how far the US and the UK will push it.

at least the headlines are accurate now: "Russia and US battle for advantage in Ukraine war ahead of Trump's return".

highly unlikely

Source is Interfax Ukraine

Well, this is highly similar to previous map that Medvedev show us in the past:

You are polish correct, i know there is a group of poles that want their territories back (due to hatred of bandera) . But even then I don´t think poland/hungary are interested in those territories, there is barely any poles in lwow.

- Third pard is what putin openly has said, he wants ukranians outside of the 4 oblasts.. so thats not really a surprise.

Anyhow highly unlikely, this would probably the worst case scenario for ukraine

is that Ukraine state media?

Psychological War, Intercontinental Ballistic Threat: Russia’s Latest Move Against Ukraine

Though the source of this information remains unclear, the RBC-Ukraine media outlet reported that the Strategic Control channel, which specializes in monitoring radio frequencies and tracking Russian military transport aircraft, was likely the first to release such a warning

According to the Strategic Control channel, the potential use of the RS-26 Rubezh is likely a response to Ukrainian ATACMS ballistic missile strikes.

50/50 on it being BS, but if the Russians do fire an Avangard at kiev, i hope they put a conventional warhead in it.

Kyiv is claiming Russia struck Dnipro today with an ICBM- specifically claiming an ICBM from ~500-600 miles away (?) and not calling it a cruise missile or intermediate missile but a space trajectory and reentry, and a non-nuclear warhead
"Big if true" applies but it doesn't make much sense. US monitors should have been able to confirm the missile launch before it even struck if its a real ICBM
US officials talked to ABC and said it appeared to be an intermediate range ballistic missile, plainly not an ICBM. And that makes a lot more sense.

Still, those are the kinds of medium range nuclear capable missiles that are a big step up from cruise missiles
