...the Ukraine people hate Russians.

The documentary Ukraine on Fire goes all the way back to Ukraines siding with Nazi Germany in WWII. I'd imagine theres some reeeeally deep feelings between Ukraine and Russia. It also covers the 2014 riots/uprising and you'll see Obama era officials there and John McCain and George Soros and good ole Brandon Himself! It opened my eyes...esp when the 2020 color riots were happening right here.

You forgot that after the flash over explosion of the the gas that displaced the surrounding air, a vacuum is left and the air rushes back with a vengeance.

A missile hit a gas storage tank, probably LNG. You can tell because the gas burns on the edge as it heats and expands because that’s the only place there’s oxygen.

I plan to watch that.

But, Russians killed millions of Ukraine people prior to WWII, and still not many fought against Russians, because the Nazis were busy killing Ukes in mass graves.

Some military historians cite Hitler for being a dumbass for killing Ukrainians because he could have turned them against the Russians, after what happened.

So when the Ruskies used them to raze the city of Grozny to the ground back in the late 90’s, where was he? The Generals didn’t face any such war crimes afterwards.

The article is the worst journalistic writing I have ever saw.

Conventional explosive such as TNT must carry their own oxidizers as nitrates. TNT is trinitro toluene. Basically a benzene with three nitrates attached to the benzene ring. The nitrates on the benzene ring are the oxidizer. Thus the are a point weapon of much destruction but have a limited radius of lethality as compared to a fuel air weapon also called thermobaric weapons. The thermobaric weapon is basically a weapon filled with petroleum distalists. It primary charge creates a mist cloud of these distalits like gasoline. It is then ignited by a secondary that then explodes the cloud. It creates a huge pressure wave that kills in a wide radius. A soldier in the blast radius would have his lungs collapsed and his ribs broken and become knives into his lungs.

The ugly beauty of this weapon is its blast radius and the fact that the oxidizer is just the air. Thus, all the pounds of conventional weapons that need oxidizers is not needed and thus pound for pound is most efficient.

I’m suspect this is the petroleum depot blowup from earlier

If you have further distinguishing info please share

Likely explosion is from whatever munitions or the like that is stored there. Have seen a few others like that since targeted areas were hit and continue to be.

That’s irrelevant ...we’re on a roll

This is free sponge forum for all and any propaganda

And don’t forget it you Putin lackey you...lol

The forum has lost its mind

Quoting sites they normally detest as gospel

No empirical discussion or questioning

Or you’re a Putin boot licker

I’ve seen this movie here before a half dozen times

Considering this is a ‘Azerbaijan’ news site you might want to find another source.

People who are not familiar with explosions of ammunition instillations etc. see ‘explosions’ often as bombs rather than realize explosions can be anything other than a bomb.

Good to have both sides chime in ......there’s so much propaganda out there....and Ukraine and Russia are well known for this. But in war there’s always a propaganda war tough to find the truth until it’s over and the dust settles........

I can’t be sure but the large updraft and mushroom cloud looked like the pipeline depot explosion from earlier
You cannot believe anything about this in western aggregate media

I mean it’s a flood of disinformation and propaganda unlike anything I’ve seen in my life so intense and dominating ...it’s ironic how we used to laugh at Pravda and TASS

More intense than Covid

Larger than 2020 election fraud denial

It’s scary and represents a serious threat how easily and saturating they can do this ...that is real non military power ..

I recall reading about Ukraine’s siding with Nazi Germany when studying about the war. I was surprised how many countries actually co-operated with the Nazi’s.....but then fear of destruction when you have few sources to fight back can do that.

I covered the Odessa fire when so many were burned alive.....the truth of that has never been clearly detailed....but it was obvious to me where the blame was.

You know how often I’ve posted photos and reports in other events...Including Ukraine’s MAidan, which I had many sleepless nights trying to get at the truth. It’s exhausting when you see all the false information....and our media is one of the worst.....they always will side with the Global Cabal.

Forgot saying because the propaganda is so thick and intense I’ve opted out of showing any photos and little on any reports. I haven’t seen anything like it before either. But I can tell when it starts and for this war it began long before it began.

I remember early on in the Gulf War, when getting my train at Penn Station, hearing someone on CNN on some bar TV say "sources at the Pentagon said the Republican Guard has been decimated." It turns out, that was utter crap. True, the Guard cam under heavy fire but that was in late February.

I'm hearing all sorts of stories, about Putin being furious and Ukraine mothers brandishing AKs. It smells like CNN and the Guard all over again.
