Missiles struck Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, early on Thursday morning, setting off air raid sirens and forcing residents into bomb shelters. Explosions were heard across the city just after the alert was issued.

“Kyiv is being attacked by enemy missiles,” the capital’s military command posted on Telegram, urging people to take shelter immediately. Local authorities confirmed that at least two districts in the city had sustained damage.

Meanwhile, in the east of the country, the city of Kharkiv was also hit. Mayor Igor Terekhov said that seven missiles had struck the city overnight.

Andriy Yermak, chief of staff to Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, confirmed that Russia had launched coordinated strikes on multiple Ukrainian cities, using both missiles and drones. “Putin shows only a desire to kill,” Yermak wrote. “The attacks on civilians must stop.”

It is quite apparent that the Ukrainians are warmongers, since they won’t easily surrender their country to the nice Russian immigrants and their friendly Kalashnikovs.

If the pilot’s good, I mean if he’s reeeally sharp, he can barrel that thing in so low, oh it’s a sight to see. You wouldn’t expect it with a big ol’ plane like a ‘52, but varrrooom! The jet exhaust... frying chickens in the barnyard!

War Is Hell-General William Tecumseh Sherman

Those Ukrainian Nationalists of Nazi Heritage don’t care about ending the suffering.

One could say Vladimir Putin is celebrating Holocaust Remembrance Day in what he considers to be a fitting fashion.

Blasting the Ukrainian nationalists whose ancestors helped to perpetrate the Holocaust.

This situation is reminding me more and more of the RISK games that the other neighborhood kids and I played many decades ago. Toward the end of the game the kid who was winning would have a pile of pieces representing 10 armies each up against a kid who was being wiped out of the game who had just a few pieces left representing 1 army a piece. Do I really need to say who the two competing kids in this situation are?

Approximate movement of the missiles launched in today’s large-scale combined missile attack on Ukraine.

A minimum of 16 Kalibrs, 15 Kh-101s, and 6 Iskander-Ms were used.

Missiles impacted targets in Pavlohrad (Dnipropetrovsk Oblast), Kharkiv City, Ozerne (Zhytomyr Oblast), Kyiv City, Shepetivka (Khmelnytskyi Oblast), Starokostyantyniv (Khmelnytskyi Oblast) and Skalat (Ternopil Oblast).

Among the targets were airfields, energy infrastructure and probably defence infrastructure.

6 Tu-95MS strategic bombers took part in launching Kh-101 cruise missiles.

3 carriers of Kalibr cruise missiles, likely including at least one submarine, took part in launching Kalibr cruise missiles.

Iskander-M ballistic missiles were launched from Bryansk, Kursk and Voronezh Oblasts.

Ukraine is game to you?

No, the situation in Ukraine is not a game to me... I said, “This situation is reminding me more and more of the RISK games that the other neighborhood kids and I played many decades ago.” There is an unmistakable parallel between what is happening now and the end of those games. I am not completely sure why we even bothered to complete them. The end was typically obvious long before the game was completed... the same way that the end is now starkly obvious in Ukraine.

What is the purpose of wasting more lives and treasure in this idiotic situation?
