Armaments equivalent to 30 kilotons of conventional explosives were destroyed. Armaments which had been under the command of Autocrat Putin (friend of crazy North Korean dictators, Syrian dictators, Iranian mullahs, etc.) have been taken out of circulation. Armaments which one day could have been employed against Western troops (and civilians!) have been removed from the equation - and at no cost to Ukrainian lives.

A purely military installation has been destroyed - and you are quibbling, "expressing concern," casting aspersions, as well as distracting and diverting attention to unrelated matters.

Ukraine has won a major victory today. Let us hope that many more days like this follow!

Regards,

indeed, it is wonderful news. It means they are doing this without our long-range missiles. Since they are so successful without them, we don’t have to risk war with Russia now.

In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled US/EU $50B Rus Asset Ukr Loan Plan Fails; Ukr Officers Flee Vuhledar; Rus Encircles Ukr Troops Kursk (My notes on 1 hr 30 min video), alexander_busek wrote:

I spent a lot of time viewing and recording my notes on the video thread I posted, so I viewed your comment as if it had SOMETHING to do with the actual thread content and in that context, a burning dump is irrelevent. I didn't realize you were simply distracting from the thread content "LOOK! SQUIRREL!" or in this case, "LOOK! BURNING AMMO DUMP!"

I don't happen to believe that Putin = Hitler, so I don't believe I should sigh with relief as if that ammo was going to be used against us.

HA! You accuse ME of distracting and diverting?  I was still focusing on thread content and context, remarking on my legitimate concern for men trapped and not permitted to surrender, because I had just viewed the video and recorded my notes. My comment was about the thread topic. My 'concerns' were on the topic - yours were distraction/diversion. You snarked at me to get this conversation going, remember?

Ukraine has not won a major victory today, if by 'major' you mean that it could change the fact that Ukraine is losing the war. How many Ukrainian ammo dumps has Putin destroyed? Did anyone call those  'major victories' in Russia? The good thing is that it was a military asset without harm to civilians (if that part is true).

Regards,
