Zelensky was trying a couple months ago to get Britain to supply him with “a couple of charges” to try to create an escalation with a nuclear false flag that he hoped would draw NATO troops directly into the war.

So it is very conceivable that this “errant missile” was another attempt to bring NATO to the front lines with Article 5.

The only good thing about this latest stunt is that even much of the West is finally on to Zelensky. Not to mention that outside of Poland there is no interest in Europe to offer troops to join this war.

This can’t be...I was reading another thread where all the usual suspects were blaming Russia! I hope they all have their feet firmly implanted in their mouths.

And many claiming it was an Ukrainian AA missile

No way an A-A could create such a powerful explosion. Not even the old Phoenix, which was only carried on the huge F-14, could create such a crater. Most likely it was a S-300 SAM.

The UK wouldn’t mind to have a nuclear blast in mainland Europe.

I said it at the first moment because the first thing visible on the published photo is a part of the S-300 motor.

Yep. Sounded like Ukranian goof/on purpose move to further emptying of American taxpayer dollars from the moment it was announced.

And the worshipers of George Soros and Joe Biden would enjoy hearing about mushroom clouds appearing over the U.S.A. As long asthe source of Lying Joe’s dirty money was unimpaired.

Them pro-Ukraine propaganda peddlers been pumping BS since March of this year within FR, and unfortunately, many within FR been eating it up like a new brand of Sweetarts.....

Russia out of missiles.
Russia destroyed their own gas pipeline.
Russia attempted to blow up their own Crimea Bridge.
Russia was shelling themselves in a nuclear power plant.
Putin was dying from 32-flavors of Baskin-Robbins diseases.

I could go on.

Poor Zelensky, he can’t keep his people on script no matter how hard he tries...:-) His initial assertion that 10 facilities had been struck was later increased to 15 in the speech he gave his nation. His spiel always includes suggesting that almost no missiles or drones get through...”we shoot them down.”....:-)

But, now the Minister of Internal Affairs publicly ups the ante.

https://t.me/i20028843

💥💥💥More than 30 infrastructure facilities of Ukraine were damaged on November 15 due to strikes, the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Denis Monastyrsky said on the air of the Rada TV channel. Earlier, Minister of Energy of Ukraine German Galushchenko said that this attack on the country’s energy system was the most massive since the start of a special military operation - generation facilities and power transmission systems were destroyed. In this regard, according to him, emergency shutdowns have been introduced in a number of cities in the country💥💥💥

Precisely. Right from the get go, calmer FR heads suggested the missile was Ukrainian. Timber Rattler ( Jeb Bush) and UmcMummy are no doubt disappointed the Nato cavalry won’t be riding into Ukraine this time round.

Galicians themselves are laughing at his claims at this point.
It is good when they are able to down a couple out of hundred of these missiles.

Entirely plausible and more likely what happened. In spite of numerous- reported- Russian mistakes, firing into another country would have been out of standard operating procedure. Mistakes happen - the fog of war.

"I called it many hours ago!"

I think the first thought a lot of us had, was that Ukraine fired off those missiles. I know I did. Whenever the media comes out and blames Russia right away, based on what's gone on in the past, our instincts tells us not to believe it.
