Forty Mile Long Russian Military Convoy North of Kyiv Is Most Juicy Military Target Since the Iraqis Fled Kuwait City.

"Logistics problems are stalling a massive Russian convoy that's pushing its way toward Kyiv, according to a senior U.S. defense official. The convoy, which has been measured as stretching for 40 miles, is apparently being hampered by fuel and food shortages.

"The news comes as Russia continues to concentrate attacks on the large Ukrainian cities of Kyiv and Kharkiv.

"As night fell on Ukraine on Tuesday, Russia's large convoy was still about 18 miles north of Kyiv — representing little or no change from Monday, the official said. The official added that some elements within the military column are "literally out of gas" and having difficulty feeding their troops."

All that time building their forces, and they forgot to supply them. Good, fuck 'em. They expected Ukraine to crumble in a day and instead found resistance. Now Russia's new strategy is to flood social media with propaganda.

A half-dozen Ukrainian MiGs can turn that highway into chaos, with the ambush waiting. Ukraine has the jets, but it would be difficult to get enough troops into place. Only in the cover of darkness.

@beckyromero If they even get to Kyiv they themselves might ask for asylum and refugee status. I never would have thought Russia would be this bad.
