Russia will take years to replace nuclear-capable bomber planes that were hit in Ukrainian drone strikes last weekend, according to Western military aviation experts, straining a modernisation programme that is already delayed.
Satellite photos of airfields in Siberia and Russia’s far north show extensive damage from the attacks, with several aircraft completely burnt out, although there are conflicting versions of the total number destroyed or damaged.
The United States assesses that up to 20 warplanes were hit - around half the number estimated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy - and around 10 were destroyed, two U.S. officials told Reuters.
Dear Russia and Putin, I wish to extend a few words of sympathy to you in these trying times:
LOL! Get fucked, you deserve everything you are getting.
Wish we could see the person that downvoted this
Posts are public on Lemmy. I can’t speak to specific instances and apps, but in the basic web interface, “View Votes” can be found under the three dot menu of each post.
I’ve heard about that but I haven’t seen it yet. I just get options for moderation history which is a really cool feature on its own.
I believe they can see it because they’re an admin of their own instance vs a standard user (I also cannot see who voted, and I think the API keeps that data private for everyone except admins)
Totally fine with that
Agreed, there was a massive discussion about it on github where that sort of was the general outcome at the end of the day as well

My guess is that it’s someone feeling sympathy for the people of Russia. Which I kinda get. There are a lot of people there that oppose the invasion. The rest aren’t necessarily bad people either. They’ve just been fed lots of propaganda and lies.
