Lost in the media with everything happening in Israel and Gaza, the last week or so has featured some of the largest Russian losses of the war.

There's always been a steady stream of rumors from Western sources since the war began. I remember a couple of months into the Russian invasion, news sources were also talking about how he looked sitting in his chair and the placement of his hand. There could indeed be health issues but all I'm saying is that western media sources reporting this has been fairly consistent throughout.

Putin recently was in China for the BRI forum with other world leaders and from the video clips I saw, he seemed fine. Yes, I am a doctor!

This has been a long and brutal conflict. And I can safely say that watching Russian tank turrets popping up 100 feet into the air as they explode is still as deeply satisfying now as it was in the beginning.

That failed launch is an old video. I remember seeing it at least a few months back.

I don't know, but I do know that a lot of that stuff made its way to Syrian rebels fighting against Assad. So much so, that they had to pull their UN peace keeping contingent from the Golan Heights because there was fear Assad would target them specifically out of revenge.
