Tell HN: Bloomberg reports that Russia invaded Ukraine

1. Pure Ukrainian, no relatives abroad. 2. I know people who can confirm that and do not know anybody who can deny except for some buddies who has moved to Russia several years ago. 3. North of Ukraine, very close to the Russian and Belarus border and pretty far to the Black Sea. Our border is steady BTW, maybe because there is nothing worth of attacking, unlike some mining and metal industry in ОРДЛО (abbreviation means literally Some Places of Donetsk and Luhansk Region but in usually speaking we call that area Donbas which means a Don river basin). 4. I have a family business, it is a grocery store which has been worked 20+ years with no computers. Now, almost all businessmen like me need to buy some computers, and to connect to the Internet in order to get a program registar of settlement transaction (we call it ПРРО). Of course it is closed source, expensive, it longers service time for my customer because of ping and right now the ПРРО in my store is glitching as hell so there is some risk that I will be fined if I will not manage it to work correctly ASAP. BTW it is hard to find any fan of Zelensky's politics even among employed in other areas, maybe because he is not really the one who can and who does rule the country.

2) Is true about these regions, largely because of constant war conditions caused by, well, constant war going on there. More-or-less same is true about the Ukraine itself, even given no war is going on there. Conditions are comparable (but subsidies in that case are, of course, coming not from Russia, but from the West).
