Ukraine just struck deep into Russia, destroying a key electronics factory in Cheboksary that powers Putin’s missiles, drones, and glide bombs.
With only two stealth drones, Ukraine crippled a plant essential to Russia’s war machine—impacting everything from missile guidance systems to nuclear sub components. As smoke rises, Ukraine’s message is clear: nowhere is safe.

Regards,
Russia can't even defend its munitions factories.
Expect a sudden change of Russian leadership in the near future - with extreme prejudice.
Regards,
Would you look at that! Russia makes their own things instead of importing them. /extreme sarcasm
Ukraine has done that ten times over. But your definition of what would constitute a Ukrainian victory is a laughable. Ukraine can never install an occupied government in Moscow, but that’s not its goal. Its goal is to preserve its own nation. Russia’s goal was to destroy Ukraine. Russia has lost. The only question is how many times over Putin will allow Russia to be decimated before Russia accepts defeat. No, keeping Crimea and the Donbas will not represent a win; Russia had those before the war started.
Correction: ATTEMPT to bomb.
Wow, unfiltered news straight from the KGB! Nine dyeffestatink targets! Look, at the dyeffestation! Czere are a lot of police cars!
OTOH, I did learn that the peace-loving, freedom-loving Russkies have reopened a railroad to Pyongyang.
Bury you dead killed in combat like any civilized country would do.
Did you miss the entire Gulf War?? Ukraine is a pussycat compared to the bold strikes we did.,
People must have forgot the highway of death photos.
Rocked our place pretty good. We live about a mile away.
The night of the start we sent a bomb right down the chimney of the command HQ!
None of your realism posts change the unethical fascist character of Putin. He is not a U.S. ally. He has massive nuclear weapons aimed at our complete annihilation.
Yet yall cheer him on. I’m happy to oppose. China might be taiwan. It would still be wrong. And yes yall would cheer that on too.
Ukraine CANNOT win against Russia.
Afghanistan was much smaller than Ukraine.
The Soviets suffered much lower casualties in Afghanistan than Russia is suffering in Ukraine.
Afghanistan never was able to hit Soviet military targets deep inside of the Soviet Union.
Meanwhile, Russia is now advancing on Dneiperpetrovsk Oblast…
It’s true. Europe has been sucking the USA dry. Effectively 2/3 of the cost of defending Europe is borne by USA taxpayers and they demand 2/3 of the troops on the ground be US men. And 2/3 is probably understated. More like 5/8.
I always laugh when people don’t mention this but bitch about Israeli aid. We give them 10-15% of their defense budget and get back improved weapons and they use their own people.
Heck, our predator drone was developed by an Israeli.
RE: Russia ( USSR ) in Afghanistan
Well, let’s see ….
The Soviet Union was in Afghanistan for about a decade, from December 1979 to February 1989. The withdrawal process itself lasted nine months, beginning in May 1988 and concluding on February 15, 1989.
We are only 3 years into the invasion of Ukraine.
If this keeps going, and it follows the Afghanistan pattern, it will take till 2032 for this to end. Trump would be long gone by then. And who knows if either Putin or Zelenskyy will live that long?
The X factor will be the support of the larger Russian populace in the big cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg… so far, their residents remain unaffected. If Putin eventually has to draft young men from these 2 big cities, and thousands start to die, we might see massive loss of support for the war. So far, Putin hasn’t found the need to tap the young men from these cities. He can still tap prisoners, foreign mercenaries and draft Russians from other smaller cities.
Russia also does not have a Walter Cronkite broadcasting America’s hopelessness in Vietnam. Any Russian journalist who tries to emulate Cronkite will disappear never to be seen again.
Russia is not destroying Oil Drilling Platforms. One in the Black Sea ran by British Intel was a communications hub and drone refueling point. Video was released June 11th and was pretty cool. The missile hit and it was gone. The Brit’s manning the oil platform converted into an intelligence rig is food for the fishes.
Britian is openly getting Starmers proclaimed war. He talked it up and then got caught in performing terrorism.
Over a hunderd Brits have been taken out in Ukrine in the past few days.
The French lost a 50 man deployment hours after landing in Odessa this past week.
Trump took a step back and the British Empire is pissed. They are involved in the Riots across the US as well.
Ukraine is in it’s current form a western project. That version of Ukriane cannot win. Never Trust a Democrat. Ukraine was a nature target for Obama and Biden along with the DNC with their corruption. There is no more money to be made. All the western investments Ukrainians are fighting to defend are or will soon be under Russian management.
This conflict has devolved form destroying Putin and Russia for resources, to Central Banks and NATO trying to save their ledger sheets - they are overextended in Ukraine simply becasue they thought they COULD NOT LOSE.
Nobody wins in war. But the West gets a black eye and the US/British breakup is incoming.
See, that’s the perpetual problem with Russia. The idea that Russia needs to FORCE anyone, especially the Ukrainians, to be Russia friendly. How backwards can you be?
Maybe God will someday FORCE Russia to simply be friendly with the world, instead, especially so with Russia’s neighbors like Ukraine. God can be very persuasive that way.
In the meantime, perhaps a serious charm offensive would be less offensive to the world than the usual Russian aggression against its neighbors has ALWAYS been.
It was working. With the previous Putin’s more congenial attitude, NATO was an obsolete organization, just an outdated idea from last century, and Russia was becoming friends with everyone, even old enemies.
But now, with this current Putin’s return to belligerence and dreams of past Soviet gory glory, NATO is stronger than ever and even adding new members, as Russia makes war with its neighbors once again this century and threatens us all with nukes and WWIII. SSDD: Same Soviets, Different Day
Yo, Russia! Change your heart, change your thoughts and change your life into something better for your sake and the world’s, too.
