I wanted to ask you guys what you all think of me making more commentary-style posts, including opinion pieces, analysis, and answering questions people might have in the comments in the format of a post.
Because I’m the only one running this channel, I don’t want it to turn into a corporate-style professional news outlet. I think making my posts more interactive is a good thing. I can’t really do this on Twitter, and on Telegram I have a much smaller, but stronger community.
I don’t intend to decrease the number of actual “news posts” I make, and the “commentary posts” would be much more sporadic, but I thought it could be nice to add a more human element to my reporting.
Let me know what you think in the comments, and if you would care at all.
Or react with 👍 for yes, or 👎 for no.

Ukrainian drones have attacked the Ust-Luga Port in Leningrad Oblast, resulting in a fire breaking out.
Prior to this attack, air raid alerts were activated in parts of eastern Latvia, likely due to Ukrainian drones using their airspace to evade Russian air defence.

Another bridge in Slovyansk was destroyed by Russian KAB glide-bomb strikes, this time connecting the eastern industrial districts to the northeastern suburbs.
This is the third bridge to be struck in Slovyansk in recent weeks. This bridge has been closed to civilians since 2022 due to its low quality, and was used exclusively by the military.

The Ukrainian Air Force launched an airstrike on a building in northern Kostyantynivka.
But somehow, according to Deepstate, this area is under full Ukrainian control and not even in a grey-zone.
In reality, this area has been under Russian control for over a month, but this goes to show how unreliable Deepstate has become.
