Video shows a missile slamming into the British building in a fireball explosion at around 5.40am before a second followed 20 seconds later leaving it 'severely damaged'.

Larry Johnson on the current situation:
Well, we saw Donald Trump the other day tweet that the fault of Biden was that he forced the Ukrainians to always be on the defensive. Except that wasn’t true. We go back to September of 2022 when the Ukrainians launched a counter offensive against Russian positions and the Russians basically had they had no military presence to speak of just some border police where they were driven out
of the northern part of Kersan which is north of the Donbass. Um then in June of 2023 they launched another counter offensive and in the process they lost between an estimated 100 200,000 soldiers in a failed counterattack that was completely planned and directed by US military commanders uh General Cavali among others sitting in Stuttgart or Vbaden. Uh then in uh August uh 2024 uh Ukraine again launched another offensive into Kursk and that led to the deaths of 80,000 uh Ukrainian soldiers. So what
we’ve seen is this repeated pattern where Ukraine is incapable of mounting successful offensives and holding that
territory. Russia has pushed back in every single one of those instances. And what’s going on right now started off in February of 2022 with Russia having about 175,000 soldiers uh in their offensive into the start of the special military operation and they were outnumbered you about 5 to
one by the Ukrainian forces. uh we now three and a half years later have seen those numbers flip. So that Russia has
right now about 650,000 trained soldiers, experienced personnel that have been that have had minimum 3 to four months of training on the front lines all along the line of contact from the Sunumi region in the north down to
Odessa in the south. Whereas Ukraine is its army is right now estimated to be about 350 to 400,000. Uh the lopsided
uh losses that you know western propagandists continue to lie about what Russia’s experienced and ignore the the true cost for Ukraine. Uh in in the most recent exchange of bodies where Russia turns over the dead Ukrainians that it has captured or taken possession of and uh Ukraine does the same with Russian soldiers. Russia received 19 dead Russian soldiers. Russia in turn delivered 1,000 Ukrainian dead.
So it’s a 20 to1 ratio. For every one Russian soldier that’s dying, there are 20 Ukrainian soldiers dying. And what we
see taking place, the demographic changes taking place inside Ukraine are horrific. Uh you know, what used to be a
country of about 42 million people is now down to about 28 million. And they they simply don’t have the manpower to
sustain these kinds of losses.”
You would Neocon. Stop trying to create WWIII for your globalist overlords.
Hopefully they smashed the facilities into a skidmark.
British femboys and Euro (NATO) globaloids have no business in Kiev whatsoever, besides making war on Russia.
If they don’t like getting shot at, just stay TF out.
Hard to see how your posts in this thread can be construed any other way than openly rooting for Russia’s success.
“Hard to see how your posts in this thread can be construed any other way than openly rooting for Russia’s success.”
Posting the truth about what’s going on attracts this kind of remark every time.
“The Brits launched that drone attack on their sub base and nuclear bombers.”
Got any proof of that?
L
Shut up and sit in the corner with the rest of the neocon dunces.
It’s called a war - dunce. Not that you know the first thing about them, but wars are where you kill or destroy those trying to kill or destroy you.
In this case, Russia destroyed Euro-scum ops that should never should have set foot in the Ukraine.
Here’s hoping they keep it up... good and hard.
I made a simple comment but you seem very upset by it and all of your remarks are absolutely childish generalizations.
If Putin wants the United States and Europe to back off the stupidest thing is to attack their assets directly in a misguided effort to send some kind of message.
But your ability to understand these things is apparently at the level of a 6-year-old.
Nice name calling Russia kiss ass.
What did you say you want someone to keep it up on you good and hard?
“Kind of a bummer though, the people likely to be hurt were night watchmen or janitors. I’d much rather the spies and military liaisons...... oops, I mean “cultural diplomats” get hit.”
I think posts like this go beyond merely posting the truth about what is happening.
The Krauts are egging for Russia to hit them inside Germany; Mertz has been told that Russia will hit Germany if his Tarus missiles launched from Ukraine hit Moscow, St. Pete, or other places inside Russia.
Russia simply needs to determine which auto plant is still producing vehicles and send a missile. Mertz isn’t called Blackrock-Mertz for nothing.
Just BECAUSE they are spending hundred of billions doesn't mean they SHOULD be spending of hundreds of billions.
NATO deems Russia as threat and Russia deems NATO as a threat.
But the last I looked the Ukraine is NOT in NATO.
No, sorry. The stupidest thing possible is tolerating foreign entities on your border, killing your troops and people when the threat can be eliminated entirely, which is what just happened.
According to your utter confusion, Russia should allow 5 Eyes and NATO "consultants" to continue their evil-doing so he can look a nice guy for Trump and the Eurotrash that's trying to wreck his nation. They don't care how he looks or if he has a winning personality.
You think it's some poser game... where good posing is what matters instead of battlefield results. Like most Americans, that's from sitting on your fat ass watching all our wars on TV.
It's not a game. Russia sees NATO in the Ukraine as a threat to their very existence. The mission is to eliminate the threat.
We don’t know what really happened. Missles get hit by defense and no one controls where they fall. Ukraine is known for putting HQs and such in or up against apartment buildings. Then they use communications, the Russians intercept them and hit them, damaging the apartments at the same time of course.
Can’t possibly be an escalation. Trump says that Pooty told him he wants peace. He must have told Trump the truth since they have such a good relationship and all that.
/s for those folks in Rio LInda
Go to Russia this is America.
You are obsessed.
For once I’ll give Russia the benefit of doubt. They were probably aiming for a school or apartment building.
