A drone believed to be Ukrainian penetrated hundreds of kilometers through Russian airspace, causing a deadly explosion at the main base for Moscow's strategic bombers in the latest attack to expose gaps in its air defences.
Moscow said it had shot the drone down causing it to crash at the Engels air base, where three service members were killed. Under its usual policy on incidents inside Russia, Ukraine did not comment.
The base, the main airfield for the bombers that Kyiv says Moscow has used in recent months to attack Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, is hundreds of miles from the Ukrainian frontier. The same planes are also designed to launch nuclear-capable missiles as part of Russia's long-term strategic deterrent.

There are plenty of neoconservatives, who were never on the left, much less Trotskyites. And neocons were hardly the only anti-communists.

You still here? Surely George Soros has invited you to his New Zealand Great Reset escape compound by now? I'm in New York City. Many people in FB know who I am and where I live.
I love lamb and salmon from New Zealand. It looks amazing in documentaries and in Peter Jackson's movies. I'd love to go someday. But, Soros Gyorgy would never invite me anywhere I've called for Soros being prosecuted for Holocaust crimes. Let Soros and his lawyer say that he was too young to be held accountable. I've called Soros the most dangerous antisemite in the Western World. And I;ve called for the video of his ex-wife beating him up made public.
Any other asinine statements, tovarich?

Balderdascious neo isolationist drivel.
The bear is barely capable of committing the war crimes against Ukrainian civilians. Mother Russia is now unable to function well. She is certainly no super duper power.

Perhaps you should work on your reading comprehension.
Unlike you, I remain a conservative and nationalist. I have not sold my soul to the KGB or Soros
