#StormShadow, finally delivered to #Ukraine.
This is a step forward, since now Ukraine is able to destroy targets it could not destroy so far. This applies especially to the bunkers in #Sevastopol but also offers a new (good) option for the #Kerch bridge.

@pplsassembly did you not consider peace a good cause? Do you wish the Tories to keep sending UK workers' (OUR) money to a literally nazi regime? To keep committing terrorist attacks (#nordstream2; #ZaporozhyeNPP; #kerch bridge, Crimea; #BlackSeaFleet) against Russia? Pl respond.
@STWuk you attended the demo. Why don't you make a stand against #naziukraine? Your position re Ukraine is untenable. In order to denazify Ukraine, save LPR & DPR citizens and try and stop nato expansion, which you advocate, Russia had to undertake a SMO.
This is your headline @STWuk
Nothing about how Ukraine is a literally nazi regime, how it committed genocide on thousands of DPR and LPR citizens since the 2014 CIA led nazi coup.
Nothing about the EU literally advocating nazism, voting to glorify nazism at the UN SC on 4th Nov.

Risultati preliminari dell’indagine russa sull’attacco al ponte di #Kerch, in Crimea, con un accenno agli intrecci fra l’attentato e l’accordo sul grano fra Russia e Ucraina.

L’attentato sarebbe stato organizzato dall’intelligence ucraina, forse insieme a servizi stranieri. L’esplosivo per l'attacco sarebbe partito all’inizio di agosto, camuffato in bobine di pellicola da costruzione (un carico complessivo di 22 tonnellate), dal porto di Odessa.

Il fatto che un carico di esplosivo diretto contro la Russia sia partito da Odessa costituirebbe una violazione dell’accordo sul grano, che proibisce la spedizione di armi e materiale bellico da e verso i porti ucraini.

Das Ganze erinnert mich an die Brücke von Remagen. Die Amerikaner konnten sie für kurze Zeit nutzen, bevor sie wegen der strukturellen Schäden und der hohen Belastung einstürzte.
