It comes as a Russian ammo dump was destroyed in an apocalyptic explosion in a Ukraine drone attack
STARTLING satellite images show a huge crater at Vladimir Putin’s doomsday Satan nuke launch site after a "major blast during a failed test".
They give an eerie glimpse into the total destruction of the tyrant's biggest missile, nuclear capable RS-28 Sarmat - known in the West as Satan-2.
A giant crater is seen at Plesetsk cosmodrome in northern Russia - the result of a supposed catastrophic overnight failure of a test launch.
Green summer foliage has been vaporised as a crater is formed by what is reported as a massive explosion.
Analyst MeNMyR said: “As is readily apparent, the RS-28 Sarmat test was a complete failure.
“The missile detonated in the silo leaving a massive crater and destroying the test site.
“The Sarmat is a liquid fuelled missile so this accident could have occurred separate from the actual launch activity.”
Four firefighting trucks are visible on a satellite image seeking to contain damage from the evident accident.
If confirmed, this would represent a monumental blow for Putin, who sees the doomsday missile as being the centrepiece of his nuclear advantage over the West.
It would be the fourth failure of a Satan-2 test, of which there is only one known success, which Putin oversaw in April 2022.

NOT A TEST
HIT BY UKRAINE AMMUNITIONS
Looks sort of like a clearing for what may be 5 launch sites.
It’s kinda like the IDF of Ukraine, where they stop the evil before the evil gets going. Hmmm... any beepers being carried by Putin and friends?
I see the day when all nuclear missiles or any missiles at all, get blown up as soon as they launch or even when the trigger/button is pushed. The ‘neuter’ button is coming, or the bye-bye dummy button.
It’ll buff out.
Putin is very saddened ... now he won’t be able to threaten us all with nuclear destruction ...
The Sun.
Probably another failed test, actually. It’s the fourth such failure since 2022.
D’oh!
Nukes contain a lot of high grade high explosives. In this case riding on top of a LOT of rocket fuel. In an accident it is very unlikely that there will be more than a fractional “nuclear” detonation, but a substantial conventional detonation. In any case, there will be a clean up looking for chunks.
Someone drop a pager there?
It seems unlikely they would have a live warhead on a test launch of a design that failed 4 out of 5 tries...
Yeah, those Russian nukes are really combat ready, aren’t they?
—”The Sun.”
Pls, point us to your favored news source.
Any Geiger counters wake up?
Okay, which was it; a drone attack or failed test?
That is why you have a labor force of prisoners available. It's the Russian way!
