A Russian Army officer's wife is talking to her deployed husband on the phone. "So, darling, what's this Special Military Operation our glorious leader keeps telling us about?" "Well, it's a proxy war between us and NATO..." "Oh? How's it going?" "We've lost 24.000 soldiers, 2,000 tanks, 200 aircraft, several helicopters, loads of other armoured vehicles and artillery, and they've sunk our Black Sea Fleet flagship..." "My goodness!! What about NATO?" "Oh, they haven't turned up yet..."
