Frustrated Russian forces are prepared to “indiscriminately” use thermobaric bombs to seize control of Ukraine, Western officials believe.
One western official said it was “likely” that Russia failed to achieve its main objectives on day one of its invasion of Ukraine.
The official added: “And my fear with those objectives, that timescale not being met, is if that continues to be a theme where they are delayed and then my concern is that that Russia uses indiscriminate use of indirect fire, particularly artillery systems, thermobaric weapons - which we know Russia has both in its armoury and has used in previous conflicts.

I’m not sure you have a good handle on who your friends are, Chief. Here’s a quote from Tucker Carson for you:
“What is this really about? Why do I hate Putin so much? Has Putin ever called me a racist? Has he threatened to get me fired for disagreeing with him? Has he shipped every middle-class job in my town to Russia? Did he manufacture a worldwide pandemic that wrecked my business and kept me indoors for two years? Is he teaching my children to embrace racial discrimination? Is he making fentanyl? Is he trying to snuff out Christianity? Does he eat dogs?”
China is behind this.
Not all freepers remained stuck in the cold war.
The cheerleaders look good in their KGB uniforms.
Desperation. The Ukrainians have not been the piece of cake, cower in fear the Russkies fantasized about rolling over. They are putting up a fierce fight and embarrassing the Russkies.
Are you really that easy to be manipulated by cheap Propaganda?
Please explain why you think that is a stupid remark. tia
That’s what I now understand. thanks.
“Putin had no choice”
Lol.
Absurd.
You’re not serious.
LOL, what do you think he’s invading the country for? He’s threatening Finland and Sweden FGS. He is trying to rebuild the old Soviet aunion before he dies.
“LOL, what do you think he’s invading the country for? He’s threatening Finland and Sweden FGS. He is trying to rebuild the old Soviet Union before he dies.”
I think all he said those two countries are not permitted to join NATO, and why not, neither country was in NATO during the Cold War, yet they both prospered. I think after this week, those countries will take him at his word.
That’s right.
“The cheerleaders look good in their KGB uniforms.“
It reminds me of this ignorance and stupidity from 1939:

China is not in NATO too and they’ve certainly prospered. Putin is increasingly allying with the CCP. Are you a big fan of them, too?
No, I think China is the REAL THREAT, given their recent actions and their ideology, but I realize Hillary and the media want us to believe it’s Russia.
IF you think the CCP is the real threat you should be very alarmed with Putin sleeping with Xi. Putting is using CCP based assists to attack Ukraine. What’s to say they won’t do the same with us? Or Taiwan?
Since you are incapable of explaining yourself I will say good-bye.
“IF you think the CCP is the real threat you should be very alarmed with Putin sleeping with Xi.”
Damn right I am. Putin wanted to be on good terms with the West, but instead we FRAMED HIM for interfering in our election, not to mention all this Ukraine crap we pulled. If I were in his shoes, I’d respond just as he did.
It is absurd (and a talking point of propagandists) that “Putin had no choice”.
It’s laughable.
Where do you get this stuff from?
Do you think Russia is still the USSR and an enemy of non-communist countries?
You seem to have missed the news that is was Biden’s National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan, wworked with Putin’s Russia to frame President Trump while he was with the Clinton campaign. Google it.
Regardless, Putin was a key ally of Death to America Iran long before he was involved deeply in the Trump=Russia hoax.
