This is the second megathread for discussion regarding the crisis.
Informal/Satirical news sources are not allowed on the main feed of the community but you are free to post them in this thread.
Please remember that all community and instance rules apply to this thread hence keep is civil.
This conflict has spanned for decades and has spread so far. Learning about every little thing has been overwhelming enough. Finding a way to organize that information is no easy task either. This comment will be used as an anchor to showcase a plethora of information regarding the conflict, both in background and the present. I still don’t know if it should be organized by news source or events themselves; maybe it will be a mix.
