I should clarify that this is a summary of what their comment says, not my own opinion.
I think the nuclear threats are because he backed himself into a corner by promising quick success in the #invasion of #Ukraine ... #Russia can still continue the #war for some time before running out of options. (Without considering the option of overthrowing #Putin, as I consider that unlikely until and unless the Russian military leaders see total military collapse in their near future.)
As for if or when a nuclear exchange will start, I profess complete lack of knowledge. He's a would-be world emperor, so seeing his path forward stymied could trigger an attack at any time. Or he could sit in the corner crying that those meanies prevented him from righting the (in his mind) wrong that was the breakup of the Soviet Union. It is anyone's guess which will happen.

#Ukraine offers official video source for war info. I like the way they are so effective at promoting their PoV that #Russia seems to be off-balance ... except among the extreme right-wingers who have taken everything that comes out of Putin's mouth as gospel truth, sent from above.

Something I don’t understand: rightist Holocaust deniers love to bring up the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor in response to discussion of Nazi atrocities, but suddenly forgot all that when #Putin’s #Russia starts a war against #Ukraine.

This 1980s warship was the flagship of the Black Sea fleet.
#Ukraine apparently did this with a missile they developed based on old #USSR designs. This is an embarrassing loss for #Russia. I'm sure the #RU Black Sea fleet is still a potent force, but they're now seen as vulnerable to #UA's weapons.
