Evil Vladimir Putin suffered a huge blow after Ukraine launched dramatic strikes on the dictator's oil refineries, defence plants, a military airfield, and radar facilities.
These huge hits came after Donald Trump ordered two nuclear submarines to move closer to Russia after "provocative" threats of war with the US came from Russia's former president Dmitry Medvedev. In a dramatic dawn strike, a huge fireball explosion hit military-linked Novokuybyshevsk oil refinery in Samara region with mushroom-shaped flames rising into the sky.

Another key oil refinery in Ryazan - crucial for supplies to capital city Moscow - was also in flames. Fires were reported to have been raging close to a military airfield at Primorsko-Akhtarsk, in Krasnodar region, used for Putin drone strikes on Ukraine.
A “major hit” was reported on a Russian air defence radar company near Feodosia in Putin-occupied Crimea - military unit 66571. There were giant “balls” covering radio-technical stations - one the size of a nine storey building.
Fires were recorded at the facility in the Tepe-Oba mountain range. One woman died in drone strikes on the Electropribor plant in Penza city, making special-purpose telecommunication and cryptographic equipment for Putin’s war machine.
Eight giant explosions were heard over the city followed by flames at the plant which was struck by long range Ukrainian drones. A defence-related radar plant in the city was also hit for the second time in three days, according to reports.
Ukraine also hit targets in Rostov region leading to one death, according to reports. The Ukrainian strikes on military-linked targets were in stark contrast to Putin’s assault on Kyiv on Thursday - one of the worst of the war.
A total of 31 people were killed including five children after Russia slammed a £2 million Iskander missile into a residential tower block Kyiv.

“Any post invasion “peace agreement” would have lead to total annexation by Russia regardless of “agreement”. That has been and still is Putins dream.”
Maybe your dream, but if the Neocons don’t stop their war, he may be forced to take over the entire country.
Good Lord. Let's pray neocons won't force him to do it as at this rate he will run out of breathing Kacaps before taking half of it.
“Go just some months back and you find dozens of cases when the Ukes were hitting airplanes on the ground, ammo depots or damaging critical factories. They know what they are doing.”
The Russians are generally aware of it. Orders have been issued.
LOL.
True that!
Give them a whiff of the Grape!
And suddenly, what once was old, is new again! :)
The macho war of nuclear-ratchet-chat-itis.
Trump will bypass US Farm State Senators concerns with work arounds. Your point is well taken but will be irrelevant here. I repeat; Putin has stepped on his own dick here and will pay a fearsome consequence for doing so. Thinking Trump will allow other inconsequential concerns to derail this is fantasy. Prepare to watch Putin struggle now, post self dick stepping on.
Which leftist feminist is that quote from?
“Russian auto industry in collapse”
Where are the electronics?
Madame, it has four wheels!
This is the engine - see the spark plugs and the distributor.
What’s that pedal for? And what’s that handle in the middle for?
The pedal controls the clutch, and the handle controls the manual transmission....
The West has collectively decided that Russia, who should have been friends, is now an inconvenient gas station with rusty, poorly-maintained legacy nukes, and needs to be neutered. We will now watch as Russia is neutered. The West will absorb what makes it through defences and utterly crush Russia. And we will stop hearing shit from Russia about threatening use of their rusty, ill-maintained legacy nukes. F*ck them.
This didn’t have to be. It can still change. We should be friends and indeed allies with Russia and Putin. Why aren’t we? Why can we not settle Ukraine here and NOW?
“Trump will bypass US Farm State Senators concerns with work arounds.”
The Chinese eat wheat - and the Wuhan institution probably wasn’t the only Chinese research facility doing dangerous things.

50%+ shells is far from 90%😂
Go back to 2022 and were saying Russia didnt need any help, after 3+ years they are needing plenty from China, NK, and Iran.
I also love how Russia’s gdp numbers were proof everything was fine, now that they are going down is that “proof” they are not?
“Go back to 2022 and were saying Russia didnt need any help, after 3+ years they are needing plenty from China, NK, and Iran.”
“needing” or “getting”. I don’t know, and there is no way you know either. So let’s stop playing with the language, shall we.
More strikes on Russia oil depots tonight including depot in Sochi.
What Rosneft refineries doink? Boom!
