A damaged Ukraine zoo is to put all animals to sleep after Russian shelling.
An MP and founder of an ecopark in Kharkviv says the large animals will be put down as there is no way of rescuing them after damage to the zoo. Oleksandr Feldman said the attraction was destroyed because of Russian shelling.

Large animals will be put to sleep because there is no possibility to evacuate or transport them.

"US sanctions Russia's "most prominent" dark web market

From CNN's Sean Lyngaas

The US Treasury Department on Tuesday sanctioned what it called Russia’s “most prominent” dark web market, a place where cybercriminals sold hacking tools and where millions of dollars in ransomware payments changed hands.

The sanctions coincided with a move by German police to shut down the computer servers of Hydra, as the dark web market is known, and seize $25 million in cryptocurrency.

Since emerging in 2015, the Hydra dark web market — an internet-based network accessible through specialized software — has been a haven for illicit commerce, according to researchers and US officials. Over $5 billion in bitcoin transactions have taken place on Hydra, according to Elliptic, a firm that tracks cryptocurrency.

That includes about $8 million in ransom payments made to hackers that have deployed three prominent strains of ransomware in attacks on US companies. "

 

I think wiki can crowd source that US$5 pretty easily.

EDIT: 96 beat me to the punch

 

The shelling of "military targets" continues...confirmed by Doctors Without Borders...who I'm sure are secret agents (yes sarcasm because those are the type of excuses Russia & its supporters will put out)

"Regional military governor confirms strike by Russian forces on children's hospital in Mykolaiv

From CNN's Nathan Hodge in Lviv

The military governor of Ukraine's Mykolaiv region posted a video Tuesday that appeared to show shelling of a children's hospital on Monday.

"Yesterday's attack on a secret medical facility — a children's hospital," Vitalii Kim said, without further elaboration.
....
On Tuesday, the aid group Doctors Without Borders (MSF) gave a more detailed statement that describing a strike on a hospital in Mykolaiv.

"On April 4, a four-person team from Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) visited Mykolaiv, Ukraine, to meet with city and regional health authorities," the statement read. "As the MSF team entered the city's oncology hospital, which has been treating the wounded since the beginning of the war, the area around the hospital came under fire at about 3:30 p.m. local time.""

 

yeah, highly trained attack toddlers. Big bad russians killing kids, how very heroic of them

Or they can release the large animals when the Russians arrive at the zoo.

 

Honestly the Ukranians will likely end them humanely, whereas they'd likely be tortured by the Russians.

 

Eaten more likely

 

I see, so what do you think about Saudi's invasion of Yemen? Do you think Saudi's treatment of their own civilians, particularly their women, is better than how Russia treats their own civilians? Do you think Saudi's treatment of Yemenis is better than Russian treatment of Ukrainians? How does it make you feel that the Saudis are doing such things with primarily American military gear? Do you think we're complicit in spreading evil in this case? Should we want to, do you think it'd be easier and more effective for us to stop Russia from committing evil compared to stopping the Saudis?

Also, just to clarify, do you wish to stop evil in general, or a more narrow case of an evil country invading another country? How do you measure the evilness of a country? The suffering it causes for its own civilians, or the suffering it causes for civilians of other countries? Is a country that treats its own citizens well, but commits genocide in other countries e.g. Britain back in the colonial days, considered good or evil? Is a country that's oppressive to its own citizens, but have relatively few violent conflicts with other countries, e.g. China of today, considered good or evil?

 

I don't think there are rules for specific circumstances, I think it just needs consensus. Also, I think NATO's most wishy-washy member is probably Turkey rather than Hungary.

Nothing compares to what we did in Afghanistan just this past winter. Russia is a pop warner team compared to the horrors we've unleashed.

 

Guess India couldn't keep denying stuff huh?

 

Oh no, poor Russian victims
