Indeed. This is Putin's Vietnam. Let's let him have it. The US doesn't need another "proxy" Vietnam.

According to the article:

appears to be a hybrid, something Ukraine is becoming expert on

 

Unprecedented resources mobilized by the Ukrainian forces have significantly amplified the devastation. An inside military source in Kyiv disclosed that over 100 drones were involved in the operation. Pro-Kremlin Telegram channels mentioned the possibility of a new "Palianytsia" missile drone, whose successful test was announced by President Volodymyr Zelensky at the end of August. In contrast, Ukrainian site Defense Express leans towards the theory of a modified "Neptune" missile with a tripled explosive payload.

The likelihood is high that the strike was a hybrid attack, utilizing Ukrainian rocket drones and cruise missiles.

 

Early Wednesday morning, September 18, a series of powerful explosions obliterated a major ammunition depot near the town of Toropets in the Tver region. The hit depot, labeled Arsenal No. 107, housed 240 tons of ammunition and was situated 500 kilometers north of the Ukrainian border.

A fairly detailed video on the result of the strikes on the Toropets arsenal now that most of the smoke has finally cleared. Looks like first impressions were right. A lot of damage and a lot of munitions, including missiles and components, that are no longer a threat to Ukraine. The shear precision needed to strike the individual hardened bunkers in the complex is staggering.
