I have seen other photos where it looks like snow but the trees still have leaves and assumed (?!) that it was something like infra red photography giving it that look.
This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

"Movements of large armored units, like in this video what looks like an entire armored battalion."
And 33 APVs and 24 artillery units. Ouch!
I'm shocked they can scrape up 50k troops for an exercise if that's accurate.
"USA very concerned about this cooperation: Today the 1-week maneuver Vostok2022 begins in eastern Russia. Military observers/troops from 13 countries participate, 50,000 soldiers in total, over 5,000 heavy weapons, including 140
, 60
, opening parade:"
If they can it is probably all the boys from Moscow, St. Petersburg, etc. they don’t want to send to die in Ukraine.
Maybe Laos, Mongolia and Nicaragua are lending them a few of their own??? The list of countries participating in those military exercises (minus China) reads like who's who of military powers.
It should be a great event....definitely one of the best ever. GOAT? I don't think so....unless Angola joins the mix.
"The IAEA delegation has arrived at Zaporizhia NPP and will begin investigations and monitoring of the power plant."

Russians TG and even MoD are sharing the news about UKR forces landed SOF group in 60 fighters in Energodar and they are trying to seize nucliar plant. Blue - as if landing site, large purple circle - nuclear plant territory, small inner circle - reactors. As if Russian helicopters and artillery now eliminatig landing group, but very likely this is "virtual war" to prevent inspectors access to the plant
