(Reuters) - A fuel depot was on fire early on Wednesday near a crucial bridge linking Russia's mainland with Crimea, a Russian official said, days after Moscow blamed Ukraine for an attack that set fire to an oil depot in Sevastopol.

Evidently there has been a drone attack on the Kremlin, there was a fire but no casualties.

Hitler survived about 42 assassination attempts, Castro apparently some 600 (!!). Hopefully Putin’s luck will run out sooner.

Putin's is almost certain that it must have be Ukraine because all of his Russian enemies have mysteriously fallen from windows or have been poisoned.

 

Though the story may just all be propaganda to garner sympathy from Russians and to justify his missile attacks on innocent people in Ukraine.

Apparently, It's a small short-range drone which cannot be launched from Ukraine.

Ukrainians have been complaining/asking for quite sometime for long range missiles/drones/planes whatsoever, meaning they have no means and/or ability/capability to attack anything further then 60-70 kms, Moscow it's around 600+ Kms from the Ukraine front lines, anybody would need a very fast/strong drone to fly that far.....hummmmm unless it's a set up/false claim by Russian, we all know how/why they do these things, just a pretext (like they needed one 555) to send more and more missiles to kill innocent civilian Ukrainians

This morning Vladimir Solovyov says Russia should kill Zelensky while he’s in the Netherlands. "We don’t care that it’s a Nato country"

 

We knew this already about Solovyov, but he has once again confirmed it: what an absolute a-hole!

Of course the Russians lie. Russian generals never tell the truth.

The US gave the Ukrainians 38 Himars, and Russian generals say they destroyed 40 Himars installations. Looks like they can't count to 40. Hahaha.

It's well said here.

HIMARS Threat To Russia

It’s believed that the US has supplied 38 HIMARS launchers to Ukraine so far. How many of those remain operational is moot. Since the start of the war, Russia has claimed that 40 launchers have been struck.

Why do you think that it is the Russians who want to bomb??

Even here there was a theme that the Russians did not want to bomb Ukraine.

 

 

 

Germans, Jews, wild Buryats, Chechens and Dagestanis, Tatars and at least a hundred other nationalities live in Russia. And the second place in terms of numbers in Russia is occupied by Ukrainians.

 

For the sake of justice, we can assume that Ukrainians living in Russia want to bomb Ukraine?? A lot of Putin's generals are Ukrainians, for example, General Teplinskiy. And Defense Minister Shoigu is a Tuvan.

I agree, this is very good news.
Ukraine should seize the initiative from the Kremlin. Take new loans in Brussels and Washington and sign a contract with Wagner. Wagner is a private military company and they fight for money. Whoever pays the girl dances with her.

I don't know if this is true or not, but Wagner recently stated that he has 10 million applications from US citizens who want to fight for his private military company. 10 million brave American guys will decide the outcome of the war in three days and then peace will immediately come to the whole planet.

Quite appropriate, given that the drone apparently tried to blow up the flag pole on the Kremlin roof.

Why are you generalizing? Maybe it's better to say correctly that you can't trust Prigozhin, Wagner's boss??

 

Don't you believe such respected Russians as Navalny, Khodorkovsky, Kasparov?
