Ukraine claimed “another unbelievable success” on Tuesday morning, stating it had shot down six ‘hypersonic’ missiles over Ukraine overnight, stating that the damage on the ground in Kyiv this morning was caused by falling missile debris.
Six Kinzhal (Dagger/Killjoy) ‘hypersonic’ missiles were shot down over Ukraine overnight, as well as nine cruise missiles, three ballistic missiles, six suicide drones, and three reconnaissance drones, the Ukrainian government claimed Tuesday morning.

Could be. This is the same location where the Ukie's were expending 4 million dollar missiles as if they didn't have to pay for them. Looks like they panicked and just started pushing buttons.

I do, certainly because they had a shared heritage whether the Ukrainians like it or not, they were part of the Soviet Union (and even had powerful and influential leaders who were of Ukrainian extraction) and are steeped in many of the same negative things, corruption being just one.
No doubt Ukrainians don’t want to admit that, and would rather embrace the “anti-Soviet” history. After the treatment of Ukraine by Stalin, who can blame them, but...it wouldn’t be the whole story.
If I say they are “Soviet” it doesn’t mean I say they are communists (they are an oligarchy) it means they have many of the inbred faults of the Soviet Union...utilization of over-the-top propaganda is just one of them.
In my eyes, both Ukraine and Russia engage in the equivalent of “running-dog-capitalism” we saw (and still see in Communist China) used.
To our Western ear, it gives them away, IMO.
how did so many of those bots wind up here trolling on FR?
ACME Munitions makes out either way. They sell crap to both sides.
They may have lied to mislead the Russians.
Can’t say
Many of them hate Trump too

A Patriot system was likely damaged but not destroyed by a Russian missile barrage Monday night, a US official tells
@NatashaBertrand
. US is still assessing the damage which to determine whether the system needs to be pulled back entirely or be repaired by the Ukrainians.
That's definitely a possibility since they lie to mislead the rest of us.
