Russia not having it all their own way. Well done Ukraine.

“U.S. has indications that Ukraine is now "able and willing" to take back territory overtaken by the Russian military: senior U.S. defense official

Ukraine's military is now trying to push the Russians out of Izyum, in East Ukraine, and has held Mykolaiv against ?? attack.”

I'm a bit cut off from news supply so look at this thread a lot for info. As I'm in hospital sitting looking at all this wonderful equipment that runs by technology, the idea of cyber attacks freezes me to the bone

Well he hasn’t done it yet, and I’m sure we have the technology to prevent him doing too much damage.

Joe Biden

"The magnitude of Russia's cyber capacity is fairly consequential, and it's coming," Biden warned on Monday in a written statement. "He (Putin) hasn't used it yet, but it's part of his playbook."

CNN reporting, that USA security services are saying that Putin is planning to attack the wests cyber networks, including government departments, hospitals, energy suppliers etc.

This should not be taken lightly as the security forces have been spot on so far.

Let us hope that our defences against such attacks are up to it.
