Scratch one Kilo submarine and one Ropucha-class landing ship!

Nothing speaks to victory as well as a burning shipyard!

Don’t start wars and this kind of thing won’t happen.

Crimea is becoming untenable for Ruzzia. It’s time for them to give up and leave or else face even more destruction inside Ruzzia itself. Lots of attacks in Ruzzia and Belarus last night. Train derailments in Belarus and all sorts of mayhem in Ruzzia.

Anything to distract from the complete failures along the battlefront.

90% of Moscow's rationalization for the invasion of Ukraine has to do with maintaining a naval power base on the Black Sea. If that can be nullified by a bunch of low-cost drones, Putin's just wrecked his army for nothing. My cup beer mug of schadenfreude runneth over!

The USA should have a fairly nice pile of ADM-160 MALD’s being replaced by newer versions. Supposedly the Brits expressed interest back in 2009. Pretty safe bet these account for several of the intercepts Russia claimed.

Good to know.

Hope they killed and injured a lot of Russians too.

How is the Ukrainian counteroffensive going?

Three months, 72,000 dead and what has Ukraine gained? A deserted village of 5000?

Oh yes, Bin Laden’s attack on the twin towers in NYC was a very big deal as well. Where is Bin laden now? Terrorists can have some very big deals once in a while.

USA is still the world’s biggest economy.

Two more ships damaged and possibly repairable, 31 dead.

Bonus: Russian police thought a group of Russian soldiers were saboteurs and opened fire, killing 3; return fire killed one cop.

I’d say the big deal this week is Vinyl Pants Zelensky, your hero, admitting the so called counteroffensive was dead in the water.

What took out this Rooskie drydock was the 990 lb warhead on a Storm Shadow cruise missile. British donated. Well written article!

“Russia’s lack of modern Black Sea waterfront repair infrastructure is a serious problem for Russia’s Black Sea fleet. Without maintenance support, Russia’s entire Black Sea Fleet will, in a matter of months, be rendered operationally ineffective—and effectively sunk.”

Touché.

This is massively good news!

I don’t see how Russia can hold on to Crimea much longer. It’s getting untenable there.

Next-door-Russians have apparently also understood that its now impossible vacationing in Crimea... Tourism is dead. That place is slowly dying.

NOTE
While NATO countries have no problem letting Ukraine use Western missiles to hit anywhere within Ukraine / Crimea, the West is refusing them to hit military targets in Russia! Why!?

Russia uses IRANIAN drones all over Ukraine, so why can’t Ukraine do the same, using foreign western tech to hit Russia?

Russia will now even use North Korean missiles to hit Ukraine. Doesn’t that automatically gives a go-ahead for Ukraine to use Western missiles against Russia?? I hope it does!
We have to let that sink in for minute...

War is hell. But this doesn’t move the front line.

Everyday many Ukrainians and Russians die in a useless counter-offensive that will not lead to a NATO victory.

Neocon war ghouls smile.
