Vikings rookie cornerback Khyree Jackson was killed in a car crash, his agent told ESPN. He was 24.
I have already argued at length that Russia, being the most sanctioned and economically undermined and terrorized country on earth, via embargoes and outright industrial sabotage like the Nordstream attacks, may be underachieving—for now—while hiding a far more powerful economy than current records imply. If you take away those artificial handicaps unfairly gimping Russia’s economy, then it is almost certain that Russia’s true unmeasured economic might is that of 3rd place behind China and the U.S. It’s remarkable that even under unparalleled attack, Russia is able to command one of the fastest growing and most robust economies in the world.
Oh boo hoo. Maybe Russia should consider ending their war of aggression so the world can see how powerful their economy actually is.

They appear to be disarmed and possibly wounded with the shooter moving calmly from one person to the next and executing them based on the video in the article. It's unlikely they're combatants at this point which would make them prisoners.
Video footage has been released showing the execution of Ukrainian prisoners of war by Russian troops near the settlement of Krynky in Kherson Oblast, in Ukraine’s south.
I was wondering when they would start using civil aviation aircraft to conduct strikes. I'm not sure of the legality of weaponizing civilian assets for military purposes, but it's an effective disguise if they can log a flight plan near a sensitive target. Even if they don't hit the target or get shot down, then Russia will have to run the risk of shooting down its own civilian aircraft or stop general aviation flights near high value targets.

Disappointing yet unsurprising.
