We'll meet Again....
U.S.-Provided HIMARS Effective in Ukraine
Ukraine and Russia blame each other.
Do they have a BLM group there?
What are the odds Russia shelled its own position?
Hummm, the Pre Maidan Coup Ukraine government didn't seem to have so much trouble transitioning away from Nuclear dangers.
They got rid of, and de-milled all those aging Nukes and improved the sealing and containment of Chernobyl's Soviet era accident.
But Regime Change was such a good idea ...
I’ll wait for the coherent explanation as to why EITHER side in this war actually wants to start a nuclear accident.
That said - Russia’s the only side that turned the dial way past Full Retard by doing an assault on Chernobyl with (a) not single a person with nuclear safety expertise in the team, and (b) a bunch of grunts so ignorant of what Chernobyl was, they ignored a few hundred safety notices and dug trenches inside the most nuclear contaminated place on earth.
I really wouldn’t put it past the Russians to do something equally stupid somewhere else. Ukes and Belorussians know what a nuclear accident on their doorstep looks like and literally anybody who’s ever had a teenage education in Ukraine will know what happened in and around Pripyat.
No matter how badly they would want to mess things up for the Russians, it’s extremely unlikely that they’d risk another incident like that.
It’s the Russians - especially if those forces include troops from the eastern provinces of Russia - who have absolutely no idea what could happen. It’s even possible that they’ve got orders not to screw with nukes but are under so much pressure to hold the Ukes back that they’ve decided it really isn’t as important as, say, firing rockets to the other side of the river.
the impact crater should tell which way it came from... no?
We'll meet Again....
Welp, if the Ukrainians are using HIMARs, there is no worries; they could not even destroy a bridge and its supporting pylons.......
Regardless of who fired those rounds, this ultimately is Russia's fault.
Any reason that Russia would want a huge nuclear spill in an area they plan on occupying for the indefinite future?
I’m at a loss...
Dima covered the cross-river bombardment of this power station in minute 1 of yesterdays round up. on Military Summary
In todays attack the UDF used 220 mm Hurricane MLRS cluster rocket fragmentation submunitions to - once again - attack Zaporozhye NPP (Nuclear Power Plant).
This time they hit the spent fuel area. Fragmentation submunitions and a rocket engine struck about 400 meters from one of the operating reactors.
