Live broadcast is suddenly being cut. It's not allowed to think different than the official line.

I'm posting an image of the text she has shown because it looks like it has been hidden by the russian media which reported what happened:

Quote from Kahn62 :

I disagree with this, Trump was and still is not insane, he was and is incredibly stupid, vain, gullable and naive, but no, not insane.

That confirms what i've always believed, there's many brave(really brave) Russian people who will speak out regardless of the consequences to themselves.

Quote from Scawen :

I've just learned about this Z symbol that has sprung up in the last few days and is being used apparently by brainwashed Russians.
It looks quite ominous to me. There is no Z in the Cyrillic alphabet so it seems like a symbol rather than a letter.

« Ukrainian General Staff has provided a decoder:

Z: Eastern Forces
|Z| - Crimea Forces
O - Forces from Belarus
V - Naval infrantry
X - Kadyrov’s Chechens
A - Special Forces (National Guard, FSB, Special Ops) »

« Initially, it was thought that the "Zs" were in fact a number "2" - representing the 22 February (22/02/2022). That was the day Russia ratified an agreement on "friendship, cooperation and mutual assistance" with the self-proclaimed breakaway regions in eastern Ukraine - Donetsk and Luhansk.

But it is now believed the symbol is simply a way for Russia's military to identify its own forces. RUSI's Emily Ferris says the Russian military marks its vehicles with Latin, rather than Cyrillic, letters.

Last week, viewers to a news programme on Russia's state-controlled Channel One were told that a "Z" was a common marking on Russian military equipment. The Orthodox Christian pro-Putin website Tsargrad told readers the simple marking could "avoid friendly fire" and couldn't be "mixed up with anything else".

Russian special forces veteran Sergey Kuvykin told the Russian magazine website, Life, that different symbols signified different military units. "Symbols like these are used - a 'Z' in a square, a 'Z' in a circle, a 'Z' with a star or simply 'Z' on its own." He said the markings helped make sure that troops, who might not be in contact with other comrades, were where they should be. »
