Putin suffers Black Sea nightmare as Ukrainian drones wipe out seven boats in major blow
Express UK ^ | 5/30/2024 | John Varga

Ukraine destroyed seven boats in a devastating attack on Russia's Black Sea navy in the Crimea.

Ukraine launched a spectacular and devastating attack on Russia's Black Sea Fleet, inflicting major damage on Putin's navy.

The Black Sea Fleet is stationed in Crimea, which was illegally annexed by Russia in 2014.

Throughout the current war, Ukraine has managed to sink a number of vessels from the fleet including the Moskva flagship missile cruiser.

Through a combination of missiles and drones, Kyiv's army has succeeded in nullifying the threat from Putin's navy in the Black Sea, regularly inflicting huge humiliations on the fleet.

This has allowed Ukraine to keep open its commercial sea channels, enabling it to continue its grain exports - a vital source of income for Kyiv's beleaguered government.

In another daring raid captured by onboard video cameras, Ukrainian maritime drones attacked a a Russian ship-and-boat warehouse in the Crimea.

Russia's army scrambled its aircraft thirty two times in a desperate bid to prevent the drones from hitting their target.

Other than a drone hitting a dinghy, they don’t seem to have much footing. Looks like it going to fall in line with the other 98% of the Zeeper claims.

Two out of three rail ferries destroyed. Ukraine needs to take out the third ferry tonight.

great, now take out ALL Russian oil refineries and oil infrastructure

Eventually, Russia will run out of money if all their oil refineries and oil infrastructure is completely destroyed.

They do not really sell anything else on the world market.

That's Zelenska, former president of the Ukraine.

The Western doctors did some nice work on him-her, hey?

Now he-she can play the piano standing OR kneeling...

If the Ukrainians had ham, they could have ham and eggs.

If they had eggs.

“How’s come gluteusmaximus doesn’t want to talk about the front lines over in the Ukraine?”

One of predictions is coming true - which is that Russia is looking into atmospheric testing of their nukes. Been a long time, but it seems prudent to make sure they work, considering the bunch of Neocons they’re having to deal with.

Russia has not used it’s kilo subs at all and could sink all shipping in the black sea at will.

Tell Steven Seagal to stop running like a girl. It’s not a good look for Putin’s new “Hero of Russia”.

It was illegal for the CIA to overthrow the Ukraine in 2014; Putin annexed the Crimea 2 days after the start of the NATO/CIA overthrow which they framed as a ‘peoples revolution’.

Keep telling yourself that fable if it helps you to sleep at night.

Gee, the WG&F Game Warden had no problem with the shoot when I reported it and it was his suggestion to 1) tan the pelt and 2) try the bear meat.

IMHO the best use for black bear meat is sausage. As a ground meat it was passable but not as good as beef, bison, deer, or elk. It must be thoroughly cooked due to the crap that bears eat like road kill. Thus it’s useless for steaks unless you like well done. It’s too tough for jerky.

The fat made for a good soap. Beef fat makes the best soap IMHO.

In short, self defense is 100% legal in Wyoming regardless of what you’re defending against.

It’s only in Democrat states where they expect you to die if a bear wants to eat you. I gather you live in one of those places?
