6/ The moment of one of the impacts was caught on camera by someone near to the Kupol military plant in Izhevsk. As you can see there had already been at least one hit by Ukraine's drones.

Quite unexpected, that al-Qaeda attack on the Russian convoy 40 km from Ber (here I marked blue) may have caused the largest Russian casualties since Tinzawaten last year, and the clashes last month in Africa Corps "baptism" after the official replacement of Wagner. #Mali
