TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Russian Defense Ministry said on Sunday that the country’s warships destroyed a command center with Kalibr cruise missiles, killing dozens of Ukrainian officers.
“More than 50 generals and officers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were killed,” the statement said.
The strike took place near the village of Shirokaya Dacha in Dnepropetrovsk Region. The strike hit the compound where commanders of several Ukrainian units had gathered for a meeting, Moscow said.

REALLY?
Discernment of news sources is important.
To follow your cafeteria line analogy: NOT all food is healthy.
Some news/food is poisoned;
Some news/food is to be vomited or spewed violently
Some news/food is bad, corrupted, decayed, decomposed, putrefied, & rotten;
Discernment of news sources is important!
“Discernment of news sources is important!”
*****
Cite one objective news source that doesn’t have an agenda, doesn’t pick and choose what they report to advance that agenda, and doesn’t spin what facts they do report to advance it as well.
Christian Science Monitor
One surprising contender on the list of unbiased news sources, given the name, is Christian Science Monitor. Both AllSides and Media Bias/Fact Check list Christian Science Monitor as center-balanced and unbiased.
This news organization has built a REPUTATION OVER THE YEARS as providing extremely fair, in-depth exploration into important issues in the world today.
[MY FATHER COULD NOT STAND WALTER CRONKITE/BARBARA WALTERS AS SHE PUBLICLY STATED DING HER REPORTING WITH A “SLANT” ON THE NEWS!! WE WERE NOT THEN OR NOW CHRISTIAN SCIENTIST BUT RESPECTED THEIR REPORTING FROM THE 50’S ON]
Unlike the more biased media outlets out there, Christian Science Monitor works hard to bring in perspectives from all sides.

Of course I believe anything said by the Russian Defense Ministry and reported by the Iranian press. Not. As to being hit from a Russian warship, I thought those had all been parked 60 miles from the Ukraine shore to avoid being sunk by the Ukrainians.
Even if Russia succeeded in hitting a Ukraine military compound, how do we know they know how many people might have been killed, and their rank? Lots of unknown unknowns.
That is fake, yes?
Supposedly the Kaliber missiles have a range over 600 kilometers. Don’t know what that is in miles.
1 kilometer = .62 miles
“That is fake, yes?”
~~~~~~~
Not to my knowledge, no. Please let me know if you discover otherwise.
Our government, it seems, is neither confirming or denying...
It’s kind of an obvious fake, isn’t it?
Just on how it looks, but I’m no expert.
I agree it looks suspect. The event itself took place and was effective, by
accounts on both sides, however. (Seemingly demonstrating the ability to
destroy bunkers 4-500 feet underground.)
(The event being the destruction of the arms depot... not this meeting, thing...)
The US Army has around 650 generals so yes, 50 if they were all generals is a lot.
If that happened to the US it would mean 1 out of 13 generals was killed
Now I question all killed were generals.
My thoughts exactly.
A kilometer is 5/8ths of a mile, so roughly 400 miles.
