Smiling Panzerfuchs 2.0
I'm sorry, but due to the current situation in Ukraine, I'm unfortunately unable to reply to this thread right now (due to personal reasons). This has nothing to do with this site, the people here or anything else. However, as a Bochum resident, I am very directly involved in the fate of Donetsk right now. And people I know there. Sorry...
Add: My grandfather, a German Wehrmacht soldier at the age of 16, had been seriously wounded there at that time and nursed back to health by Ukrainian peasants there (before the Russian counter-offensive took place). Since then, my family has had very personal connections with these people, this city (because my hometown has a direct friendship with Donetsk) and I am just busy elsewhere.
Add2: Yes, I know, we Germans were the bad guys as the Wehrmacht. But we also had friends there (no Nazis, because also we Germans, who fought at that time, were not all the 100% hardcore National Socialists in the wish of the Hitler regime), but here the question is, how far is Ukraine part of the Russian claim to rule and how much are we Europeans. I'm sorry that I seem really stupid right now, but I have something very personal to take care of here. I just hope help doesn't come too late....
(but I have doubts here, because I could already partly not help my afghanist friends as I wanted to) I already notice how the stress also affects my depressive character. But I try everything I can to help at this point.
