For anyone interested in how things are going for Russia, read this thread. 

 

Journalists on the ground - not UKR intelligence, journalists - have managed to tap into FSB comms and identify senior agent by essentially looking up their number in the phone book (in this case, an open source app).

As far as I know, still nobody with an English wikipedia page (one made before they died) killed.

Reading his wiki profile he doesn't exactly sound like a nice person but he had honour in fighting for his country which is commendable.

Moscow man buys newspaper, glances at front page, throws it straight out. Next day: same again. And again.

Eventually, seller snaps.

"Why do you do that?"

"Oh, I'm just checking for an obituary."

"But obituaries aren't even on the front page!"

"The one I'm looking for will be."

Apparently either the Ukrainians or reporters hacked his unit's comms, so there's audio footage floating around Twitter of his next in command calling their higher ups to report he's been killed. Seems like he got caught by a Bayraktar

From his wiki:

 

"Ukrainian sources said around 20 major generals had been deployed to the Ukrainian front, of whom three have been killed."

 

Again, this is just embarrassing for the Russians

Mayor of Melitopol kidnapped by Russian forces

[CastAway 488]

first American journalist killed on the ground per reports on Twitter. 2 NYT journalists shot by Russians in Irpin, 1 killed - still a bunch of confusion on Twitter re: who is dead and who lived

 

EDIT: name of the dead seems to be Brent Renaud. explicit photos of his body all over Twitter, approach with caution - most tweets that name him also have the photos included at the moment, so not adding tweet sources. I'm sure we'll get a confirmed obit soon.

Unnamed Fox New journalist badly injured by shrapnel near Kyiv

 

EDIT:

 

Twitter chatter IDs him as Benjamin Hall, likely this guy:

He was tweeting from on the ground Ukraine as of yesterday. Injuries reported to be serious

[MortalCaso 1,630]

Adding some more info to a post above.

 

(Wiki)  Brent Renaud was killed at age 50/51 on March 13th after being shot in the neck. Reported to be Russian forces. At the time, Renaud was an independent journalist doing work for TIME magazine. Previously, he had worked with NYT and had also produced films (documentaries) for places such as HBO and VOX. The man was well known to travel into danger all around the world and film it for those unknowing back-home. Highly recommend everyone here read more about him and/or watch some of his films. Truly an inspiring man with a shocking level of bravery.

 

I doubt anything major comes out of his death policy wise (sadly). All we can do is respect his work and the man he was. RIP

tweet is not embedding for some reason, but name of dead reporter is cameraman Pierre Zakrzewski.

There have been 0 updates on Hall for nearly 24 hours now. Very odd. Found a sketchy DailyMail article, but nothing else.

The commander of the 22nd separate guards special purpose brigade has been killed according to unconfirmed reports:

If true, fourth Russian major general killed.
