Ukrainian forces hit a Russian military logistics base with over 30 strikes in the Russian-occupied southern city of Melitopol on Sunday, the city's exiled mayor said. A Russian-installed official confirmed that strikes had hit the city.
"At 3 o'clock (0000 GMT) and 5 o'clock (0200 GMT), there were over 30 strikes on a single military base," Melitopol Mayor Ivan Fedorov, who is currently on Ukraine-controlled territory, said on Telegram.
The military aerial logistics base has been "taken out of action" and other resistance activity caused a Russian armoured train carrying ammunition to derail on Saturday near Melitopol, Fedorov said.

Russia’s RIA news agency reported that Ukraine had hit the Aviamistechko area of Melitopol where the city’s airport is located, but did not specify what had been hit.
RIA cited local Russian-appointed official Vladimir Rogov as saying that around 16-18 Ukrainian MLRS rockets had hit Melitopol in two strikes at 0300 and 0445 Moscow time (1200 GMT and 0145 GMT).

Ukraine seems intent to reducing the VKS helicopter fleet at the Melitopol airport with HIMARS delivered GMLRS rockets.👇

I understand that Putin is celebrating Julyteenth, in celebration of the collapse of Biden’s presidency. Who can blame him?
Ukies do not have as much artillery and shells/ammunition as Russians, but they use them better. Slava Ukraini, and die very soon Vlad Putin.
Putin is a pedo. Just like Biden.
Sure, but Ukraine is the source of money laundering to our worst enemies: the families of Biden, Pelosi, Kerry, and Romney.
But Biden is adversely affecting my nation, my wallet and my family.
But, but, Putin is a good Christian - just ask him! And he has his nice friends, the Chechens, to help make Ukraine nice and quiet and religious.😜
You forgot the Clinton’s! once Hitlery started cheering for the corrupt Ukraine you knew the whole deal was crooked.
I guess this is in response to losing a whole region today. I guess everyone is not aware of what is happening in the world or the devastation that is going to happen across the globe due to this war.
Is Ukraine really worth it? This war is not a Ukraine problem alone, it is a worldwide problem. Millions outside of Ukraine will soon be suffering starvation. The world including the US heading for a deep recession. Inflation is skyrocketing and soon there will be shortages of everything.
And whether we like it or not, Russia and China along with the Asian world are forming an allegiance against the US monetary system. We are getting closer to World War III and the collapse of our economy.
Prolonging the Ukraine war will accomplish nothing but destruction and suffering. I could be wrong, but I think Russia will emerge stronger after the war. Their equipment will be upgraded (some say no, but I don’t believe it, China will supply what they need) and they will have learned a lot from their costly, stupid mistakes.
Sure, Russia is a bad actor and looks completely incompetent. So? We get to puff out our tough guy chest prolonging a proxy war while millions might die of starvation and the world economy crashes further. Biden is preparing for $200 a barrel oil, wait until that hits.
Trump will fix things when he’s back. And Putin will be dead from cancer.
Putin’s state of health will do nothing for America’s middle class, given Demented Joe’s intentional destruction of our economy and social order.
Well hello there, Spams-a-Lot.
Say no to pedos. Russian and American.
he has ukie caviar on his spam :)
Hey! Those are corrupt Americans! Maybe Pootie should punish them directly by nuking US instead of going after their money launderers!
If that is true, then why are you blaming the victim? Should we be mad at the girls abused by Epstein? After all they probably gave "massages" to Bill Clinton and his pals.
And you can't possibly agree on anything with George!
