Russia v Ukraine - How This Is Going To End
Russia's air force is struggling to support Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine because of combat losses, the U.K. Ministry of Defence said Friday. In its daily intelligence update, the ministry said Russia is being forced to deploy retired pilots to operate warplanes because of high casualty numbers. Russia has moved to using retired personnel who are now working as contractors for Wagner, a Russian private military company, to conduct close air support missions, the ministry said. Russia's failure to consistently deliver air power is likely one of the most important factors behind the Kremlin's "very limited campaign success" in the conflict, which began 120 days ago, the ministry's Monday update said. Putin's air force has so far operated in a "risk [averse] style," meaning it has rarely penetrated deep behind Ukrainian lines and has not been able so far to "gain full air superiority," the ministry said. https://www.newsweek.com/russian-air-campaign-struggling-ukraine-war-combat-losses-uk-1718828?amp=1 Helps explain why Russia has failed to achieve air superiority and refuse to fly missions into the interior of Ukraine. -

International Driving Permit (to prevent constant fines)
If you rent a car or motorbike in Thailand and if you bother to read the contract, you are required to have a driver's license for those two platforms respectively from your home country and also have obtained an IDP. I don't know the law in Thailand... but it's reasonable to assume that these two things are likely what is required. So if you are getting fined, it is because you are not in compliance. -

News Forum - Thailand drops outdoor face mask requirement
Hmm...., I have often seen people wearing masks, not only in Thailand, but also other SE Asian countries. In health clinics, wet markets, random shops for no apparent reason, occasionally in the streets. Up to them, don't understand what the objection to it could be? -

Russia v Ukraine - How This Is Going To End
The official said there is no evidence Russia has been successful in intercepting any of what has been a steady flow of military aid into Ukraine from the U.S. and other nations. Russia has repeatedly threatened to strike, or actually claimed to have hit, such shipments. https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-kyiv-politics-donetsk-0537bf3613c45dc9aec283752ccf9ca6 Got to be very hard to hit weapon shipments in transit. Russia isn’t flying missions past the front lines, and have no presence in the interior of Ukraine for accurate targeting information. I guess you could hit a stockpile but I doubt you would get much for no other reason Ukraine doesn’t get enough to stockpile. -
