sadly this was about a week before Ukraine received permission to use Himars and other to strike Russian border zones. Does not seem they had longer range drones there, Magyar was probably still in Kherson by then

I'm pretty sure I saw an episode of Warographics' 'The Situation Room' a while back, where they talked about Ukrainian SF taking out Russian troops/mercenaries in .......Eritrea? Ethiopia? Sudan?.....That's a broadening of the war:

And since the "undisclosed" buyer of the submarine(s) are being built in Romania, they don't have to pass through Turkish controlled waters.

I really hate how they're making this footage being made into music videos like it's 1986 or something. Russian or Ukrainian, these are humans being killed. Is the shitty techno soundtrack really necessary?
The footage matters. The music is ... well, that ain't why I became a musician.

I always turn sound off on those videos so I was not affected by it but I do agree that many soundtracks are crap or worse.

It's not that the music is crap --though it most often is -- it's that the music is gratuitous action-movie BS when the bodies we're seeing are not stuntmen. Someone thought footage of a human dying needed a goddamned soundtrack. Reeks of propaganda. Just show the damned footage without a dance-beat.

Correct! That's what got me thinking, maybe Ukraine will have a submarine soon.
Though it's more likely Romania is working to replace their own retired Kilo-class submarine, though talk is that they wanted French boats, which of course cannot currently enter the Black Sea.
