It's a long read, unsurprisingly, as it is a long war, but I cannot recommend it strongly enough for those that wish a deeper understanding of the conflict up to the point of Trump's second term.

It makes me want to raise funds for attritable air platforms to carry Wide Area Motion Imaging payloads for the Ukranians, so they might (EM spectrum permitting) be assured of what lies in the ground ahead of them, and keep moving swiftly (for to remain still or move slowly in battle - or indeed any conflict - is usually a terrible idea).
I am astonished that attempts to demolish the Kerch Strait bridge were forbidden by the US in 2022, and much later, that ban was lifted. Strategically, I'm gobsmacked at the way both sides prioritise politically desirable targets over winning the conflict definitively. Perhaps I am naive.
I am sad that the most excellent authors of the piece did not point out Ukraine's population demographics (worth looking up to understand why they abhor sending under-25yos to fight).
I am sure others reading this account will view it from a different aspect and be surprised by different things. I'd be curious to know what they are (as well as any hashtags I missed) if anyone cares to post here!

Covering protests for all to see,
But in Turkey, she was caught,
Arrested and then sought,
Deported from the land by the sea.

But the authorities frowned
Her voice would be bound
Now she's gone, but her message may save

An İstanbul court on Tuesday ordered the formal arrest of an Agence France-Presse photographer who had been detained after covering mass protests, reversing an earlier decision to grant him conditional release, the agency reported, citing his lawyer.
Photographer Yasin Akgul, who was arrested at his home before dawn on Monday, was charged with “taking part in illegal rallies and marches and failing to disperse despite warnings,” court documents showed.
But who is Erdoğan?
Why, he’s our dear friend in the EU who we pay billions of euros to so he keeps the Brown people away from our shores, of course.
Hey @EUCommission, wanna wave to your BFF? Go on, don’t be shy!
