A Moscow drone slammed into Kyiv’s key Northern Bridge on Sunday, leading to a fiery explosion during a visit from Germany’s top official — as Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly preparing a mass military mobilization.
Dramatic footage from the Ukrainian capital showed a Russian drone crashing into the busy span during morning traffic, with a large fireball erupting from the explosion.
Cars could be seen rushing through the blast area to get to the other side as fire and black smoke overtook one side of the bridge.
Miraculously, only two people were injured in the incident, Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko said.
The airstrike came during a visit from German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, whose arrival in Ukraine was met with air raid sirens, explosions and interceptor fire.

Watch the Germans will start WWIII
Who's trying to start a world war?
We do have the makings of a World War if the Ruskies go ahead with some sort of mass mobilization.
The time is just right for our midterms as well as getting diesel prices to go even higher.
I’m really hoping this mobilization is all BS.
However Europe is ripe for several civil wars and another world war at the same time.
Oh, stop this piece of Russian propaganda. The Ukrainians were never goin to accept the Russian terms. It had nothing to do with Boris Johnson.

It is if it disagrees with the Zeeper narrative.

Well, Ukraine has long since entered mass mobilization. However, they still don’t draft men until age 25 or so unless that has changed recently. And the Ukrainians are in service “for the duration” (i.e., until death, maimed or the end of the war).
Russia on the other hand doesn’t send draftees to Ukraine and their service is (I believe) for a period of only two years. I’m not sure what mass mobilization means for the Russians. I suspect whatever it is will strengthen their position on the ground in Ukraine. Maybe Ukraine will begin to draft females like the EU hs been pressuring them to do.
If they killed Merz, most Germans would quietly celebrate.
Its why ChatGPT stinks sometimes as a reference. Johnson visited Ukraine after talks broke down, due to Russian extremist demands, clear signs Russians would not conquer Kyiv, and news of the Bucha massacre.
The 2022 Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations in Istanbul concluded on March 30, 2022, following a two-day meeting that began on March 29.
The first public visual reports and media documentation of the Bucha massacre emerged on April 1, 2022, after Russian military forces withdrew from the city near Kyiv

Interesting that the DUHkrainians were on this thread to give BoJo the Clown a tongue-bath IMMEDIATELY.
BoJo is a creep, who let the Snackbar Boys run wild in the Caliphate of the United Musland.

It is if it disagrees with the DUHkrainian narrative.
I have active contempt for people who resort to “AI” making their arguments for them.
As far as I know, Putin had nothing to do with Jan 6, COVID, involvement in any Trump assassination attempts, stealing hundreds of billions from the US, kicking back millions to the Democrats, trafficked children to rich pedos, and is not a coke head. So between Putin and Sniffy......? I hope this war is over soon.
When you put it that way, Sniffy the self-genocide guy comes out with the short end of the stick.
Almost three months ago....
