This is the dramatic moment Ukraine uses British Storm Shadow missiles to eliminate two top Kremlin officers in a dramatic double strike across the Russian border.
The strike on a key Russian command post in the Kursk region by half a dozen Ukrainian-deployed precision Storm Shadow missiles 'killed eight and wounded 22' in a major blow to tyrant President Vladimir Putin.
Chaotic footage showed the strike on Lgov targeting a building used by Russian serviceman, and today it was revealed that the lives of two colonels were lost to the blast.
Lieutenant-Colonel Valery Tereshchenko, chief of communications of the elite 76th Pskov Airborne Division, was in a command post in which eight senior officers died.
In the same bunker was Colonel Pavel Maletsky, 39, commander of 656th separate engineer-sapper battalion.
Although the strike occurred on December 30, the high-ranking casualties were only disclosed today as details of their funerals emerged.
Originally the attack was believed to have been by US-supplied HIMARS missiles.
But later evidence indicates it was Storm Shadow, the type of missile supplied by Britain to the Ukrainians.

"183,130 UK Forces Personnel"A standard "Tooth-to-tail ratio" would yield actual fighting personnel at obviously less than half, and perhaps much more, than the 183,130 cited above.Quarterly service personnel statistics 1 January 2024 -- Updated 21 November 2024
"...the strength of the UK Forces was 183,230 personnel as of 1 April 2024, according to the latest figures. This is a decrease of 3.0% since 1 April 2023.
"Broken down by force type, there were 37,780 personnel in the Royal Navy (including the Royal Marines), 110,300 in the Army and 35,140 in the RAF (these figures, and those cited below, have been rounded, so don't always add up to the precise total).
"The strength of the UK Forces can also be broken down by personnel type. The 183,230 personnel across all three branches of the armed forces includes 138,120 members of the UK Regular Forces, 4,300 Gurkhas, 32,420 members of the Volunteer Reserve and 8,380 other personnel. "
Not counting, of course, the "purveyor(s) of propaganda and faggotry."
Reading through the comments on the article -- which continue to mount up -- shows some Brits are making quite similar simple calculations and conclusions:
Ben DoonOne also notes that some in those comments rather mirror some comments made in many threads, about "putinistas" and the like. Because name-calling is such effective discussion....

5 hours agoYup, six missiles, at £2 million a pop. That's £12 million - I hope the two Colonels were worth it?

Nothing like watching a demented presidential puppet dance to the tune of his socialist lefty NWO puppet masters.
I expect to see another hypersonic missile Russian strike on Ukraine and possibly on Poland.
Ukraine has been expending its soldiers lives like they’re worthless as Zelensky continues to make a fool of himself in Kursk. Today’s Ukrainian ‘counter offensive’ in Kursk failed, throwing more men into the grave for nothing and wasting 2 tanks and 20 armored vehicles in their ‘mighty’ effort. It’s all for show, to make it look like Ukraine is making military moves purposefully, as it loses the war more quickly.
The start of you liberal spamming axxhole?
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Great post.
Putin is horrible and should leave Ukraine.
Putin caught unprepared yet again in Kursk. Right before General Kellogg’s peace mission begins.
I love the new graphic! 😂🤣
Bwahahahahahaha! I’m a Broadway musical geek and can particularly appreciate that one. “The Marcus Man.” Easy to work “parade uniforms” into that one. 😂🤣
At £1,000 pounds per pensioner household, the government of Britain could have heated 20,000 houses for old people for the entire season.
Ukraine First! Britain Last!
Go jerk off to a picture of the Z guy.
At this point the war cannot be won by either side. It can only be concluded.

“At this point the war cannot be won by either side. It can only be concluded.”
All that’s left is deciding where the borders will be. Russia can’t conquer all of Ukraine and Ukraine can’t drive the Russians out.
It’s become a bloody stalemate. Both sides have been bled white, obviously moreso for the Ukranians.
