It is still unclear which one of Ukraine's impressive military weapons caused the explosion.

Such much propaganda.   It is clear the toady that wrote this wouldn't have a clue...

I’m surprised it wasn’t reported that Russia blew up its own gas rig.

Only if a bird flies into the flames... /s

Anyway, there would likely be a few local effects, none catastrophic. Some other critters (fish, etc.) nearby would also likely be killed by the explosion(s), but that’s just nutrients back into the system.

“ The Black Sea rig was also used by Russia as a weapons headquarters, say UkraineCredit”

*************************************************************************

Back in the day I always had my logistics folks try their best to find a sea based oil rig to use as a ‘weapons headquarters’. /sarc

Ukraine's Kursk Offensive Accelerating Ukraine's Collapse

Update on the conflict in Ukraine for August 11, 2024…

- Ukraine’s “offensive” into Kursk, Russia was another example of Kiev’s costly public relations campaigns, this time designed to prove Ukraine can “bring the war to Russian soil;”

- In reality, Ukraine expended manpower and equipment it does not have to spare, as well as stretching its already struggling logistical network;

- Additional attempts by Ukraine to appear strong as its strategically collapses include alleged special military operations in Africa aimed at undermining Russian security cooperation in the region;

- Ukraine’s suggested involvement in military operations in Mali resulting in the death of government troops has resulted in the severing of relations between Mali and Niger with Ukraine;

- “Ukrainian” operations worldwide provide cover for what are likely Western activities conducted by proxy against Russia just as it does against Chinese interests around the globe and is doing in Ukraine against Russia, which itself is a proxy war;

Ukraine is a losse cannon or under orders fromb Washington doing (Biden corruption coverup) bidding, furthering the DNC Rudsiaphobia, and the US not so secret war against Russia. Moscow really needs to treat Ukraine as a nation at war, as well as a terrorist state.

This conflict is escalating with never ending supply of the next wonder weapon, or assassinations, murders, ecoterrorism, etc.

That Russia is not labeling Ukrainian AF as a military operation in Russia but Terrorists means we are in a new phase caused by recent events.

We may be on the verge of a declaration of war by Russia. Any SO parameter agreements between NATO and Russia might result in Russia escalating the leathality and intensive tempo. It had appeared Ukraine wanted negotiations, but yet another ruse of insencere diplomacy has againt fooled the Russians, and the Chinese who will not be lied to again by Ukraine.

The war is no longer revolving around the republics and Crimea, but is now all of Ukraine.
