Ukraine has launched a “large-scale” drone attack against Russian military bombers in Siberia, striking more than 40 warplanes thousands of kilometres from its own territory, a security official said.
The claims could not be independently verified. But if confirmed, the attacks would mark Ukraine’s most damaging drone strike of the war to date, amid an escalation in cross-border incursions before planned peace talks in Istanbul on Monday.
“Ukrainian security services are carrying out a large-scale special operation aimed at destroying enemy bombers far from the front, in Russia,” the official was quoted by Agence France-Presse as saying, adding a fire had broken out at the targeted Belaya airbase.
Russia started when they invaded the Krim. All of Europe shrugged their shoulders because of cheap gas… Russia is quite clearly a fascist state so I really do not understand your apologies for it. It’s probably the only state that is more capitalist than the US, so why defending it?
Russia didn’t invade Crimea. They already had an agreement with the legitimate government of Ukraine to station a base there. Then when the west overthrew the government in a violent coup, Russia moved in to annex Crimea. Gotta put a bit more work into your propaganda there to make it more credible sounding champ.
Buddy, you are defending a clearly fascist state here.
I’m not defending Ukraine. In fact, I’m not defending anything. I’m pointing out actual facts of the situation.
Putin’s Russia is not fascist in what sense?
It’s not fascist in any sense. Perhaps try defining what it is you think fascism actually is.
The inequality in Russia is absurd. After the fall of the Soviet Union, it the country has clearly become the textbook capitalist country in the world. Tell me, what are the great left wing achievements it has made? Putin on a horse?
Textbook capitalist does not make it fascist. We wouldn’t need “fascist” if that was the case.
So you are saying that there is a fine line between fascism and capitalism, yes? What would that line be? And why would we chose capitalism over fascism?
Ok, thanks for confirming that you have no clue what fascism is and can be safely ignored.
Mate you are pretending to do some progressive work here, and instead you are defending Putin of all people. It is disgusting and you should be ashamed, whether you are fake or deluded
