Many of you will remember this iconic picture from the early days of full scale invasion.
The Ukrainian soldier in this photo is Serhiy "Борцуха" - "Bortsukha" although others called him "Borets" [The Fighter].
He was a soldier in the "Tengri" sniper group of the Main Directorate of Intelligence (HUR) in the early days of the full-scale invasion.
Here he is seen riding a bike into Irpin, with an RPG on his handlebars and two more RPG rounds on his back.
In the spring of 2022, Ukrainian soldiers rode bicycles and used grenade launchers against tanks, aviation, and ballistic missiles.
Unfortunately, this warrior was killed a few days ago in an airstrike while serving as commander of a marine unit.

Ukrainian sniper Merlin broke his own trigger hand in his first month of the war, defending Dnipro airport. There weren't enough men to rotate the post, so he stayed on.

@prof_preobr Для меня это позитив: так давно хочу лишиться именно вот этого гражданства и не знаю как. Ну не в посольство же ходить? А тут всё так просто - не согласился и результат.
Только вот куда это несогласие посылать? И есть ли экспресс вариант очереди?
@CsabaSzekely7@theepicmap Dutch, Danish and German universities are light years ahead of 99% of British universities. These rankings are complete bull. The gap is even larger for PhD programs: in physics: average 1st year PhD student in Germany knows way more than than most of UK students after PhD
Rick Wilson: I think Russia's financial situation is so dire that they've stopped paying American influencers they've been known to pay.
Tenet Media scandal in US, where Russians were paying Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, Lauren Southern, Dave Rubin hundreds of thousands of dollars a month to tweet pro-Russian propaganda, that's disappeared.
HOST: Is that common knowledge that they were actually being...
Rick Wilson: 100%. Public story, legal filing. The Department of Justice went after Tenet Media because they were accepting money for these influencers to go out and take pro-Russian stance.
