Ukraine fires US, British missiles into Russia, launches one of largest drone attacks so far
CNN ^ | Jan 14, 2025 | Reuters

Russia’s military on Tuesday said it would retaliate against Ukraine after Kyiv attacked Russian regions by firing six US-made ATACMS ballistic missiles, six UK-made Storm Shadow cruise missiles and launching one of the biggest drone attacks to date.

After Ukraine first launched ATACMS and British Storm Shadow missiles into Russia last year, Moscow responded on Nov. 21 by launching a new intermediate-range hypersonic ballistic missile known as “Oreshnik”, or Hazel Tree, at Ukraine.

“The actions of the Kyiv regime, supported by its Western curators, will not go unanswered,” the defence ministry said.

The Ukrainian General Staff said it had struck as deep as 1,100 km (680 miles) inside Russia, targeting oil storage, refinery, chemical and ammunition plants in the Bryansk, Saratov, Tula and Tatarstan regions.

This is another flaming turd for Trump's doorstep. Sanity will prevail in five days.

At least, there will be a huge injection of sanity in five days (can’t come soon enough!).

I’m hopeful it’ll suffice.

Yeah, how dare those beleaguered Ukrainians defend their country by destroying a couple of fuel dumps, munition factories, etc.?

One could almost believe that they were being invaded by two foreign nuclear powers!

Oh, wait...

I figured the one that would do him in was the one where he said FR needed to be disrupted - which I only saw after Bikkuri’s ping

It might have been, but it's hard to say. Canuck went on a six-hour trolling spree that day.

Muscowy invades Feb 25, 2022 for a 3 day “special military operation”

1000 days later, Ukraine is still not conquered or cowed by Muscowy and counter-attacks Muscowite territory and then we hear “Russia’s military on Tuesday said it would retaliate against Ukraine”

You can thank Victoria Nuland for all those new grave sites, the loss of Crimea and the Donbas region.
