Here’s a Completely Crazy Idea

Look, I know this might seem far-fetched, but hear me out. Maybe if you’re going to have a meeting of your army commanders, you should try to choose a location that is not within range of the enemy’s artillery: Two Russian generals have been killed by a Ukrainian artillery strike on a forward command-and-control center […]
