The plant that went up in flames reportedly manufactures equipment for the Russian military.
I’d love to know if all these drone strikes and explosions deep into Russian territory are some spy shit going down or partisans or whatever. It’s going to make for some interesting documentaries in years to come I think
So far every location hit by Ukrainian drones is a legitimate military target, unlike Russia that targets schools, hospitals, and apartment buildings.
The fact the drones are getting all the way to Moscow without being tracked is amazing. A complete failure by the Russian military and intelligence service. Before long they will strike the Kremlin.
Remember Mathias Rust? The guy who landed on the Red Square, right in front of the Kremlin? He landed there in broad daylight with his Cessna, coming from western Europe. At the height of the cold war. Nobody saw him coming…
“Within a year of returning to Hamburg, Rust stabbed a colleague at a hospital where he worked and ended up behind bars again.” Hol up
Well, flying a chessna into cold war russia was not a sane decision, either.
Not amazing, good ecm and coordination with allies that have spying/surveillance capabilities than most of that entire swaths of former bloc states.
I imagine the us is having a bit of a laugh in yet again arming the little guy and bankrupting the ussr/Russia for pennies on the dollar.
Didn’t they fly drones into office buildings in Moscow? I get that it was late at night and empty etc etc but just doesn’t seem like a legitimate target as you say.
Yes, the building housed the ministry of economic development, the digital ministry and the ministry of industry and trade.
There were residential buildings hit in one of the earliest attacks on Moscow.
Because the drones were shot down and crashed into them.
Probably it’s just Putin bombing his
slavescitizens to justify some extreme action against Ukraine in the near future. I mean he did that before.Where does the term partisans come from? I’ve only seen it used recently in relation to this war

It’s pretty old. I’ve heard it most of my life in this usage.
Goes back to WW2 at least. Russian partisans fucked the germans up behind the frontlines.
The plant that went up in flames reportedly manufactures equipment for the Russian military.
Correction: The plant that went up in flames reportedly used to manufacture equipment for the Russian military.
That was an impressive one. Not just blocking the “special military operation is contained” narrative like the other deep strikes, but also hitting high tech war supplies.
I just read the military optics company was renting warehouse space to a pyrotechnics company. So, this is either a successful operation or a horrible reminder not to put tactical magnifying glasses next to a giant pile of fireworks when the sun is out.
Yeah that’s not likely… someone else put this comment in another post:

The owner of the pyrotechnics company denied this. The targeted factory was reportedly connected to the manufacturing of a next-generation bomber.
Those careless smokers get everywhere…
Awesome
Fortunately, nothing of value was lost.
Will someone please think about the водка! There were likely
severaldozensthousands of bottles that sacrificed everything during this event.
Are there no other sources for this besides the daily beast?
Maybe this is what Russians get for giving Putin free reign for a quarter of a century.
Don’t want to see anyone get hurt, but FFS the Russian people just went along with it when Putin came to power and steadily gained ever more control of the government. The Russian people could have stopped this 10, 15, 20 years ago but didn’t. Now they have an entrenched mad man in there who controls everything, has gotten them into a pointless war in Ukraine, and clearly shows no sign of stepping down.
Attacks on Russian soil have only started.
Russians have tried to get him out of office but then they get arrested, radiation poisoning or suicided.
They’ve had protests, sure, and individuals have tried to go up against him, but never in the masses needed to overthrow his government.
Sadly Bill Clinton and Tony Blair backed Putin initially. It’s not totally the people’s fault.
Bill was President up until 2001 and Putin gained power only 2 years earlier. At the time there was no reason not to support him. He was a freely elected leader. But that was 2 decades ago and a whole lot of things changed since then.
Merkel as well
unpleasant situation for ru worms
This is exceptionally interesting considering the fact that Ukraine has made great use of western-supplied night vision against Russian forces. It seems logical that they would want to deny such an advantage to their enemies.

Hmmm. Any chance Putin was caught in the blast? Fucking piece of shit.
The bitch is hiding in a bunker he was nowhere near this.
I know. What a shame.

Any other news outlet reporting on this?
