What if Vitali is wounded or worse?

I hope it ends also- this will have reverberations for generations. I admire the Ukrainian people and am humbled by the Klitschkos, Usyk, Loma…etc. Same with Zelensky- great leader. I am humbled watching these men fight for their country and put their lives on the line for their people. Putin seems determined though, and he doesn’t strike me as a man who wavers or doubts himself- so this will likely not end well. That being said, I feel Putin will make an effort to not severely injure/ kill famous Ukrainians to limit the outrage and ire from the rest of the world. Still, it’s an invasion so there is not much he can do from Moscow.

Difficult in the initial siege and partly why the Russians are advancing so slowly. Russian intel likely has a good idea where Zelensky and other high value targets are- so he will limit the heavy bombardment and place an emphasis on capture over kill. That being said- in armed conflict he has no real control so if it comes to heavy fighting they will likely not fare well. Once they are captured I think he will try to show that he is treating them fairly to reduce outrage and anti-Putin/Russian sentiment.

Bordering on some insane times. Imagine placing a higher unit emphasis on preserving high profile State figures than one does schools, playgrounds and entire civilian blocks all in the name of saving humanitarian face on the world stage. Think we've come to a point where Country to Country some very hard truths need to be confronted in the company we keep.
