Yesterday the Ukrainian special forces with the assistance of the Bayraktar TB2 UAV took back control of Olkhovka in the Cherdynsky District of Kharkiv as they dig deeper into the Russian occupied Kharkiv.
The town has been fully liberated with the Ukrainian forces suffering injuries to some of their personnel and with many Russian troops captured or killed.

Neddstark: Reason why we communicate in English not Igbo is because the British conquered this part of west Africa and your ancestors could do nada about it. Forget sentiments. It is all about weapons and conquest. Russia has more weapons, they are the biggest arms manufacturer in the world. They are using a tenth of their capability in Ukraine.

Neddstark: Russia's focus has never really been on the Northeast. Sad some of their soldiers had to be captured. The main focus has been the liberation of Donbass. The capture of Mauripol sealed it. Everywhere in the Donbas billboards have come up saying "Speak Russian and don't be ashamed about it". With the successful capture of Donbass, the next agenda is to make Ukraine a landlocked country. No access to the sea. Ukraine will exist but half the size of what it presently is.  Just like that? So in your dreams a sovereign nation would watch another country come into their territory, take a whole city and make it their own? You really have no idea what you are yapping about. Na now Russia go see fire. They want concentrated warfare in that region abi? It's now going to be Guerrilla warfare promax and Russia has the disadvantage there

chatinent: But how can Ukraine be begging Putin and still be doing these?
These people are really brainwashed by the US...except of course, it's another propaganda. Show us where Ukraine is begging Putin? You are the brainwashed one to believe such nonsense even from your own mouth. Ukraine has been asking for either sky to be closed or to be given planes because that is the only advantage Russia has against them. In other areas they have been destroying the Russian troops like kilode. This is why Russia no longer engages them in man to man fighting but has shifted to long range missile shelling. A cowards fight |

The Ukrainian forces have reportedly recaptured key strategic locations of Trostyanets in Sumy Oblast, Poltavka and Malynivka villages in Zaporizhzhia Oblast from the invading Russian forces.
The Ukrainian forces launched successful counter-offensives against the invading Russian troops in Zaporizhzhia Oblast in Southeast Ukraine.
The Ukrainian forces successfully ousted the Russian forces from the Poltavka and Malynivka villages in Zaporizhzhia Oblast after intense fighting.
On the other hand, Trostyanets – a city in Sumy Oblast in northeast Ukraine was also liberated by Ukrainian forces.
“The city (Trostyanets), located in the northern Sumy Oblast, was captured by Russian forces on March 1. Trostyanets returned under the Ukrainian flag on March 26,” a report claimed.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called for immediate supply of weapons from the West.
“It is impossible to save Mariupol without additional tanks and planes. We cannot shoot down Russian missiles with shotguns and machine guns,” the Ukrainian president said during his latest address.
He added that Ukraine is “waiting too long” for the required weapons. https://nenow.in/world/ukrainian-forces-recapture-trostyanets-poltavka-malynivka-russian.html

Autos › Nissan Stops Production At Russian Factory by Igbofam2(op): 10:40am On Mar 16, 2022 |
Nissan has halted production at its factory in St. Petersburg, Russia, for three weeks, citing a shortage of parts.
The stoppage began Monday, a Nissan spokesman told Automotive News Europe. The company has had problems sourcing parts from outside the country, the spokesman added.
"Due to ongoing logistics challenges, we have suspended exports of finished vehicles to Russia and the Nissan plant in Saint Petersburg has suspended production from March 14 for three weeks. Nissan is carefully monitoring the ongoing situation," the automaker said in an emailed statement.
Nissan has about 2,000 employees working at the plant and additional workers in sales and marketing roles in Moscow. Production at the factory was 45,040 vehicles last year, the company said.
Nissan joins a range of automakers who have paused production in Russia after Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine at the end of February. Others have halted exports to Russia.
Nissan’s alliance partner, Renault, has halted activities at its assembly plant near Moscow until this Friday because of supply difficulties. Renault builds the Terrano small SUV for Nissan based on the Dacia/Renault Duster at the Moscow facility.
Nissan said it was helping to relocate families of 40 Nissan employees working in Ukraine and was in contact with the remaining 27 still in the country.
The company has previously said it is creating a 2.5 million euro ($2.75 million) fund to help victims of Russia’s invasion, including donating 1 million euros to the Red Cross and other aid groups.
Nissan sold 51,338 cars in Russia last year, making it the ninth-biggest manufacturer based on sales, according to figures from the Association of European Businesses, a Russia-based trade group.
The locally built Qashqai SUV was the company’s best-seller with sales of 20,474, according to the AEB figures. The X-Trail midsize SUV, also built locally, was the next biggest seller at 19,010 units in 2021. Nissan also builds the Murano large SUV at its St. Petersburg plant.
The company has already stopped imports to the country.
Independent dealers remain open Nissan’s network of independent dealers in the country are still operating, although cars are priced 30 percent higher on account of the collapse in the value of the ruble, the Nissan spokesman said.
Renault is deeply embedded in Russia via a majority ownership of Lada’s parent company AvtoVAZ. The French company is reportedly reluctant to cut ties because it is worried about the high cost of pulling out of a venture with a local partner.
Moscow has threatened to nationalize or expropriate the properties of companies that leave Russia because of the war.
Two other factories operated by AvtoVAZ at Togliatti and Izhevsk also shut down for some days this week due to “the ongoing crisis in the supply of electric components,” the venture said in a statement.
AvtoVAZ previously built low-cost Datsun models for Nissan at Togliatti but stopped in 2020. https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/nissan-halts-production-russian-factory-citing-parts-shortages

Crime › Re: Alleged Sex In Car On Lagos-Ibadan Expressway: It Was A Case Of Murder & Suicide by Igbofam2: 4:57pm On Mar 03, 2022 |
maasoap: There was no authenticity to that claim, some even said half naked. Lol
The story said she slumped, that is not the same as dead. He could have been taking her to the hospital for all what they knew. Dem be doctor who certified her dead?
He just murdered someone close to him, you couldn't expect him not to panic and make mistakes. You can't expect him to think straight and think things through since it wasn't a predetermined action. Simple.
That's is Fallacy. How could you be so sure of something that didn't happen in your presence to the people you didn't know? You would make a very bad investigator. Your mind has no room for "what ifs, perhaps, how come and why"! Police claimed Murder/suicide simply because they found a bottle of insecticide in the car. Was an autopsy done to show he drank it or that he drank it before or after he died (forced into his mouth)? Did they bother checking his physical locations via his phone GPS to rule out any foul play? Did they bother to interrogate his wife regarding her location same day he died and check her call logs? What report was tabled at the other police station? Was it about a murder or a grevious assault? Make some of una dey at least try to show say una go school by allowing your brain to do some critical thinking |

sketcherJ: sometimes the motive behind an event is as basic as this. It’s good to think and reason but at times, you over think it and make it more complex when the answer is right in your face That is why being inquisitive and desiring an investigation would always rule out all other options and ensure that what you arrive at is the truth and nothing but the truth. Like I said, the only thing that would eliminate all doubt is to track the locations of his phone prior to him allegedly killing himself |

Man commits suicide inside his car after killing girlfriend in Ogun
https://dailypost.ng/2022/03/02/man-commits-suicide-inside-his-car-after-killing-girlfriend-in-ogun/ Big question!
WHY WERE THEY FOUND NAKED?
The man had no reason to strip himself and the lady naked prior to drinking sniper.Plus, it is possible the car keys may have a spare and the car was locked from the outside while leaving the keys in the ignition to make it appear like a murder/ suicide.
Plus how did neighbours see him carrying a supposed lifeless body and didn't accost him since they allegedly knew the lady was dead?
Why did he have to allegedly drive all the way to his house risking possible police stop and search just to drop a suicide note when he could have easily sent an SMS message or Whatsapp message to his wife via his phone?
I am sure that if they track his phone prior to the alleged murder/suicide it would show he was nowhere close to his house prior to killing himself

Foreign Affairs › Russian Oligarch’s Superyacht Seized In Germany by Igbofam2(op): 9:02am On Mar 03, 2022 |
One of the world’s largest yachts,owned by a Russian oligarch who faces sanctions following the invasion of Ukraine, was seized Wednesday by German authorities, marking one of the first super-yachts to be seized as Europe and the U.S. crack down on the Russian billionaires within Vladimir Putin’s orbit.
Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov’s custom-built 512-foot yacht Dilbar — which Usmanov purchased in 2016 for $600 million and was, at one point, the largest yacht in the world by tonnage — was seized two days after the European Union announced plans to sanction the oligarch. The Dilbar was docked in Hamburg, Germany, where it was undergoing a refitting job since October 2021, Forbes reports, adding that shipbuilders that were working on the Dilbar didn’t show up for work Wednesday because the German government had taken the yacht.
According to Reuters, since the announcement of sanctions against Russian oligarchs, a handful of their superyachts have made their way to the Maldives, which does not have extradition agreements in place with the U.S. “This coming week, we will launch a multilateral Transatlantic task force to identify, hunt down, and freeze the assets of sanctioned Russian companies and oligarchs — their yachts, their mansions, and any other ill-gotten gains that we can find and freeze under the law,” the White House previously warned.
Usmanov — who the U.S. Senate called a “senior member of Vladimir Putin’s inner circle” while attempting to sanction him under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in 2018 — reportedly has a multi-billion dollar empire that includes metals giant Metalloinvest, the Russian cellphone giant MegaFon, consumer electronics firm Xiaomi, as well as estates throughout Europe. Forbes reports that Usmanov was also among Facebook’s earliest investors.
The European Union announced plans to blacklist Usmanov and prohibit his travel throughout the continent as part of the sanctions against Russian oligarchs amid the invasion of Ukraine.
Also on Wednesday, the Everton F.C. in the English Premier League severed its sponsorship deal with three Usmanov-owned companies, ESPN reported. This past weekend Roman Abramovich, another alleged Putin associate, handed over stewardship of the Chelsea soccer team to his charitable trust before the U.K. could impose any sanctions on him; Abramovich is now attempting to sell the soccer team ahead of any longterm sanctions against him. https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/russian-oligarch-superyacht-seized-1315552/

alizma: Did you read the part that says people saw him carrying the corpse to his car and they even reported him at a certain police station? an average Nigerian like to blame other people or the devil for everything. Who confirmed she was dead before labelling her a corpse? Is it the same Bariga I know or another bariga? If indeed people saw him carrying her alleged corpse in BARIGA they would have descended on him and probably lynched him. Bariga people no get joy o. What sort of half baked story is the police spinning? |
Crime › Re: Ogun Contractor Kills Girlfriend, Commits Suicide, Drops Wife Suicide Note by Igbofam2: 8:31am On Mar 03, 2022 |
Their decomposing bodies were found naked.
Is the police trying to say he drove from Bariga to his house naked and then drove to the NASFAT location naked too or he stripped himself naked prior to drinking the insecticide and dying?
Did he decide to make love to her corpse one last time before drinking the poison which was why they were both naked?
