What front? The Russians have been destroying civilian infrastructure
and residences and hospitals and business and government areas far far
away from the portions of Ukraine they occupy. There is no military
purpose, just inflicting misery.

Communication is less reliable to nonexistent. No, life for those who
aren't dead hasn't stopped but it's surely miserable.

Why would you downplay this?

It doesn't magically repair lines of communication.

Ok.

Ok.

It's possible this newsgroup could get created on binary servers and
it's possible that a few of the world's Ukrainian speakers will find
it. It's ridiculous to argue with me that within Ukraine, any
significant number of people are able to use Usenet or any other form of
communication without severe outages that the rest of us who aren't
living with constant attacks from Russia take for granted.
