Soviet soldiers feed polar bears from a tank, 1950 This picture was taken in the Chukchi Peninsula.
This Peninsula is west of Alaska and it is considered to be one of the hardest places to survive in the Russian federation (then Soviet Union).
Patrols in this area were routine, however the soldiers there often saw that even the wildlife there was struggling due to the extreme cold in the area, so they would feed cans of condensed milk to the polar bears. The second image shows a soldier kissing a cub.
The soldiers did not give meat to the bears, as it wouldn't be possible to take a large quantity of meat with them in a tank, however condensed milk was part of their army ration as a dessert.
These picture's are actually incredible, as polar bears are very protective of their cubs and will fight viciously to defend them. Polar bears are also thought to be the most aggressive type of bear towards humans.
The Chukchi Peninsula is inhabited by the Chukchi people, an indigenous group of people who may have been the first to ever live in the Eastern Russian Federation. There are about 15,000 Chukchi people alive today.

According to international law, the region of Karabakh is a part of Azerbaijan. As of right now, all of Azerbaijan’s military operations are taking place inside Azerbaijan. Armenia is not being invaded. Armenian troops *inside* Azerbaijan are being attacked. These are facts.
Do you ever feel that older cities are just more interesting than new ones?
Well, it isn't just because they're old.
It's because of something called "vernacular architecture"...

Turkophobia among Armenians will never stop.
One of the Armenian admins of the Turkic-phobic Telegram channels is sowing hatred.

My heart goes out to everyone affected by the major earthquake in Central Turkey.
As I stated earlier, sooner or later this would happen in this region, similar to the years 115 and 526. These earthquakes are always preceded by critical planetary geometry, as we had on 4-5 Feb.

A quick Caucasus thread 🧵:
For a month now Azerbaijani "protestors" block the Lachin road between Armenia and Karabakh... ostensibly because of "ecological concerns". In reality it is about russia arming Armenian radicals in Karabakh to start a new war.
