Massive fires engulf Moscow and St Petersburg industrial sites amid Ukrainian attacks on Russia
Daily Mail (You Tube channel) ^ | Mar 12, 2024 | Daily Mail

Posted on 03/13/2024 8:14:52 AM PDT by MeganC

Huge fires were burning at industrial sites in Moscow and St Petersburg after the latest round of attacks on Russian infrastructure by Ukraine. In St Petersburg, a blaze broke out at an industrial site close to the airport with footage showing towering flames and a huge column of smoke streaking into the sky. Local reports indicated that a hangar within the industrial zone was ablaze, whilst some suggested a drone had been seen nearby at the time.

Meanwhile a similar blaze broke out in the suburbs of Moscow, where a construction warehouse burned to the ground. More footage showed flames ripping through the industrial complex, with firemen working to put the flames out.

Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for either of the strikes, but is known to be in the middle of a campaign of destruction against Russian industrial facilities. The aim is to wipe out the manufacturing capacity at the Kremlin’s disposal, to limit the amount of weapons it can put on the battlefield in Ukraine.

Good thing Adolf and the boys didn't know about this whole "destroy a couple of warehouses in Moscow and it's all over" thing. Wonder why the Ukranian Nazi collaborators didn't let them know back then?

Can't wait until the corrupt DC Uniparty, and the US Deep State have their globohomo Ukraine project finally destroyed.

It will be like a new Independence Day for the US Republic and the Constitution

the numerous recent successful drone attacks against Russkie military and industrial sites certainty exposes their ridiculously pathetic air defenses ... contrast that situation with the recent massive drone and missile onslaught against the U.S. Navy in Red Sea ...

The Russians have been acting with some restraint.

These attacks may just backfire by provoking the Russians to a more aggressive posture.

What surprises me is since Russia having air superiority, as everyone seems to agree; why haven’t they destroyed the drone launch sites, warehouses and manufacturing facilities??

Putin’s failure to defend airspace around Moscow and St. Petersburg reminds me of the hubris of Nazi Air Marshal Goering.

“Although it has been cited in several variations, the original quotation was given by Resichsmarschall Hermann Göring in a speech to his Luftwaffe in September 1939, after France and Britain declared war and the industrial Ruhr district fell within range of their aircraft. “No enemy bomber can reach the Ruhr,” he assured them. “If one reaches the Ruhr, my name is not Göring. You can call me Meyer.”

Meyer and its other regional spellings is a very common name in Germany. Some sources, for added irony, later re-quoted his boast as “If one enemy bomb falls on Berlin, you can call me Meyer.” The fact that Allied bombers did pound the Ruhr, however, was reason enough for Germans to start calling air raid sirens “Meyer’s trumpets,” among numerous other sarcastic references.”
