Ukraine appears to have attempted to strike deeper into Russian territory overnight, although officials on both sides were being reticent about drone flights and explosions early Wednesday that were described by three local governors in Russia.
A close adviser to President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine said that the assaults inside Russia near Ukraine’s eastern border were payback against launching pads for the invasion, but he stopped short of saying the Ukrainian military was responsible, attributing the attacks to “karma” instead.
In Russia, three governors described incidents involving drones or blasts on their territories. An ammunition depot was set on fire near Belgorod, a city less than 20 miles from the border. Two explosions were reported in Voronezh, nearly 200 miles from Ukraine, and a Ukrainian drone was reportedly shot down over Kursk, about 70 miles from the border.
The attacks in Kursk and Voronezh, where air-defense systems were reportedly activated, raised the specter of a wider war, as they were farther inside Russia than previous targets.
Ukraine’s defense ministry has generally declined to discuss reports of attacks on Russian soil. In two months of war, the fighting has largely been contained within Ukraine’s borders, though Russia claims that two Ukrainian helicopters fired on an oil depot in Belgorod in early April.
Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to Mr. Zelensky and a member of the Ukrainian delegation to the stalled peace talks, wrote in Russian on his channel on the Telegram chat app that warehouses in regions like Belgorod and Voronezh were being used to supply fuel for armed vehicles in Ukraine. Disarming them, he wrote, was “a very natural process,” adding, “Karma is a cruel thing.”

Bare chested guy on horse to shakes the nuclear clown.
Stranger than fiction.
Cool...if true.
I expect Russia to light 2-3 battlefield nukes (20-25ton) in Ukraine to demonstrate how seriously they take the matter.
Did the KGB agent expect war to be neat and confined like a Russian gulag?
Take out the naval base at Sevastopol. The No have the predator drone. It should have the capability for that range.
We should expedite some MOAB’s for the Ukes to drop in the middle of Red Square.
Only the totally stupid person would want a major war when their CIC is a brain addled vegetable leading a miltary of LGBT homo generals.
“I expect Russia to light 2-3 battlefield nukes (20-25ton) in Ukraine to demonstrate how seriously they take the matter.”
Why would all-powerful Russia need to use nuclear weapons against a non-nuclear state?
And if they do such a thing then the Russians better STFU when every last NATO country arms itself with nukes and aims them all at Russia. You might also want to plan on Switzerland and Austria joining NATO at that point.
Also, look forward to the year 2100 dawning and Russia still being an isolated pariah state.
Just like Twitter, Ukraine needs to be de-nazified.
LOL ! Looking at the “performance” of these damn imbeciles, they will simply blow themselves up.
Nice reply. They wave the nuke boogeyman around and think everyone is going to curl up in a fetal position and start cowering.
Nah, the Ukrainians are smart to avoid civilian targets. Let Russia have that shame all to themselves.
I mean, criticize Putin’s mental state and incompetent generals all you want, but I don’t think they are homos.
“Nice reply. They wave the nuke boogeyman around and think everyone is going to curl up in a fetal position and start cowering.”
Threats don’t impress everyone. To the contrary, some of us start thinking about neutralizing the threat.
Switzerland? Nahhh, they weren’t even invaded by the NAZIs when they were completely surrounded. They have neutrality down.
Putin is totally fine as far as his mental ability. His physical health, maybe not.
Now Biden, if you haven’t seen his latest then you would not realize how brain dead he really is.
And you know who brags about their new woke army run by pink haired homo woke generals.
