    Holding a publicly advertised event in Kyiv for arms dealers seems a recipe for disaster

    “On Ukrainian social media, questions were already being asked about the event’s security. Images circulated of flyers advertising the event, as well as invitations featuring registration links from which attendees could obtain location information.”

    That seems…unwise…

      On the other hand, there’s a lot of very pissed off and highly capable people now who are likely willing to strike a deal to get some revenge.

      Exactly so. Saw a post earlier about the Russians saying that Ukraine targeting “civilian infrastructure” shows their “frustrations at their battlefield losses”.

      First thought was, “If that’s how you think, that explains a lot.” A very telling accusation, shall we say.
