Ukraine launched several drones at the Slavyansk oil refinery in Russia's Krasnodar region, sparking a brief fire at the site and resulting in one person dying of a heart attack, local officials said on Sunday.

"The drones were neutralised, but a fire broke out as a result of the fall of one of the devices," the operational headquarters of the region in southern Russia said on the Telegram messaging app.

The fire was extinguished and there were no casualties as a result of the fire itself, the administration said. Preliminary information indicated, however, one person had died of a heart attack, it added.

Roman Siniagovskyi, head of the Slavyansk administrative district, said on Telegram refinery workers were evacuated and there was no threat to nearby populated areas from the incident.

Separately, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said two drones were destroyed near the Russian capital, with no damage or injuries reported.

Of course, in Ukraine, Zelensky cancelled elections. This after imprisoning opposition leaders, shutting down opposition parties, killing dissidents and destroying churches.

That is what Russian news channels are saying, and that Himars against the city will result in a declaration of war followed by a Russian missile campaign the likes of what has never been seen against all of Ukraine. Cities will burn, bunkers buried, and a total disregard for Ukrainian potential voters.

On Saturday the Officer in Charge of FPV Drone production in Ukraine made the following statement. When the Special Operation started we made more drones than Russia, and they had very few. In four to five months, Russia production will become so high that he believes 99% of Ukraine Infantryman deaths will come from FPV drones.

Let that sink in. Ukraine has used these drones with success. Russia is about to both field more soldiers in Ukraine on the frontlines for the first time as well as have FPV Drone superiority.

Meanwhile, Macron has banned Russians from the Olympics, yet he is saying he wants Russia to enter a ceasefire during the Olympics. Macron has gone from Boots on the ground to Boots in the Body Bags in the course of a weak week. Now he wants a cease fire for Olympics.

Mr. Red Line Macron has lost both his voice and mind. Tomorrow Putin will be re-elected and Macron faces civil disorder, unrest and riots - he needs to focus of Paris for the Olympics.

Tragedy in the Belgorod region. During the day we lost more than 30 soldiers

Such losses were suffered on Saturday, March 16, according to sources in the General Staff and the FSB. 12 military, border guards, territorial self-defense fighters and the National Guard died in clashes with saboteurs who continue to attack the Belgorod region. More than 20 people were injured.

21 soldiers died in Belgorod as a result of attacks on the city. The enemy fired at a number of important targets. Sources do not say which ones exactly, but, according to our information, among them was a military base, “which only a few knew about.”

“Obviously, entire groups of enemy intelligence officers are now operating in Belgorod. I’m afraid the enemy also has agents among the local residents. We are now looking for those who handed over the coordinates to the enemy. Some objects were strictly classified, we are finding out how they found out about them in Ukraine,” said our source in the FSB.

The work, he said, is being carried out actively. The interlocutor promised “quick results in just a few days.”

Yea, they have been using shovels and throwing stones for over a year.

Just like when Biden gave the Cluster munitions to Ukraine emptying out US arsenal due to the ban by most nations... now Russia is employing on great scale than Ukraine did for that month in June last year. Everything we give to Ukraine is essentially a clearance, making room for the next generation. Whatever we allowed Ukraine to use, Russia has returned the favor.

I believe what Russia is saying is that those monthly 120-140 missile barrages seen in the past is going to seem they were scrimping. I don’t think Russia hit Ukraine with the monthly 3-4-5 days missile campaign in February or early March. That probably means 300-400 missiles instead of 130.

Today in Belgorod Ukraine is targeting the city with cluster munitions. Biden gave cluster munitions to Ukraine for use against Russians in Ukraine. Look’s like NATO’s attack dog has slipped the leash and gone mad. Using these weapons against civilian targets is just plain wrong, if not a war crime. Everyday, both sides make a choice to fight a savage war or a humane war - Ukraine has choosen to go scorched earth.

NATO has already given Ukraine missiles with a range of 400 km since Russia pushed the frontlines back requiring longer range weapons to make up for the increased distances.

I have a feeling Russia will go scorched earth on any locations known to have NATO officers or soldiers. I wonder if the world will take notice of the upcoming missile offense Russia is threatening. Now that Belgorod has been targeted with cluster munitions during the election, Russia is going to taunt them.

That single missile launched at Odessa killing 550 MPs and 60 NATO officers, 100 mercenaries’ and foreign military/government officials in a briefing Saturday is an indication that Ukraine is out of ADA and no longer can counter Missiles. Russia lauched one single missile a second time at Odessa when the first responders showed up and wiped them out. No Air Defense missiles or artillery to stop Russian missiles in the Odessa area.

The rest of Ukraine is also out of ADA.

Russian FPV drone production is expected to replace Russian soldiers and account for 99% percent of Ukrainian frontline casualities by July or August... Just in time for the next barch of 250,000 Russian soldiers to join the Steamroller headed for Kiev.

You shall see my American FRiend;) It takes time to train more soldiers. When you start a fight with 190K against 1.2m and it takes 2 years to hit 1.1m while reducing your opponent to 800k, it seems like Ukraine is either holding her own or even winning. The build up is only gaining momentum. Ukraine esitmates Russia will have gone from no FVP Drones to fielding 50,000 a month in July 24. When Russia get to July 24 they will for the first time finally match Ukraine’s total troop strength in Ukraine, and their war industry is keeping pace with the recruits.

I never underestimated Russia’s strategy to maintain their resolve and to overcome NATO’s proxies in Ukraine. Russia stated they would capture Kiev in 2026, and if anything I doubt Ukraine puts up the fight Siagon did when it literally feel overnight once US support was withdrawn.

Trump wins, Zelinski loses. That Ukraine assisted the democrats in their impeachment efforts against Trump is one more reason Ukraine must be destroyed. It is time to rebuild America’s institutions and government agencies ridding ourselves from lying disloyal Neo-cons.

Our American died with the Obama Election. The death of America.... That would be the never-ending recession of 2007. Technically, America has been in Recession since 2007, with the exception of the Trump years and few quarters here and there. We are currently in a Recession. Our American died along with the Bush-Obama December-to-Remember Oval Office meeting that began Quantative Easing 1. QE2 begain the following fiscal quarter. Obama printed 88% of the US money supply 96 months.

Fast forward to Biden’s Turd (3d) year where he has stiumlated the US Economy 5x the money supply.

Our democrats have done everything to destroy this country.

The last election is in clear contrast to what happened in the US 3 years ago, and what happened yesterday in Russia. Contrast that with the stolen elections in Ukraine.

Present day Russia had and election, with 122 nations sending poll watchers. They got the results the next day without overnight strategic ballot dumps.

My America died when Obama, Hillary, JF’n Kerry and Biden arrived in 2008.

Meanwhile back in Ukraine, the third Himars was destroyed in less than 7 days....
