Delbow Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Just now, The_DADDY said: a) Ukraine had a hand in the attacks? I don't know. b) Putin genuinely believes they did? I don't know. 👍 Well I can't fault you for these honest answers. Would be good to see more of this all round - people understanding the difference between knowing and believing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it in various places. Some with videos (pretty grim videos too) some without. As I say, they could be real, could be fake but time will tell.

Delbow Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I mean, it's worth remembering that Putin is the man who assured everyone that he definitely wasn't going to invade Ukraine. He's one of the least trustworthy people in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The border with Belarus would be the closest I think, followed by Latvia and Ukraine, but all a fair distance. I would have thought that the border with Ukraine would be bristling with Russian military surveillance installations and personnel so not the best direction to head. All speculation at this stage anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eastern most part of Ukraine is south of Moscow (and you have to go through Belarus to get to any more western bits). Chechnya (and the North Caucasus in general) is south south east of Moscow. 'Heading towards Ukraine' = going vaguely south. Heading towards Chechnya on major roads would take you along the same route for the first few 100km. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more usual outcome in similar attacks is that they are on a suicide mission whether by their own hand or accepting they will be killed by guards /police/military.That they escaped at all I find surprising.
