Russia re-registered €2.5 billion worth of airplanes leased to its airlines without owners' consent and sold them to Russian carriers, sparking a legal battle in Dublin courts, according to a Guardian report shared on X by @T_Krawchenko between 5:45:55 p.m. and 6:15:38 p.m. UTC on Dec. 9. The planes became stuck in Russia following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine and subsequent Western sanctions, with the legal proceedings detailed in The Guardian's Jan. 10 article cited in the X post during this 29-minute window. In a related Ukraine conflict development shared in the same period, X user @prestonstew_ posted video footage of Russian FPV drones targeting and destroying a CV90 infantry fighting vehicle operated by Ukrainian forces.
