The UK, France, German and even America (though I don't know how Trump got Putin's permission to do so ) have lifted restrictions for Ukraine to use any of their missiles against Russian targets deep inside Russia itself, this puts Moscow right on the edge of the distance that Ukraine can go with their current stock of long range missiles, depending on what version of those missiles they have. Also, some of those missiles Russia currently struggles in defending itself from them, especially the German Taurus missiles. Reports are Putin is not a happy camper about this.

did they really?

was Trump asleep

[felter]

Most of the main stream media is kind of not reporting about it, while the Ukraine war media all are here is The Military Show Coverage or if you would rather read about it, here's an MSN article.

I think Trump said something along the lines that Putin is mad, but it takes one to know one. There was a phone call that he did and things didn't go well. So maybe Trump is now seeing that Putin isn't playing ball. But Trump is still a puppet.

Tomorrow he will praise Putin, as usual

Beds Russian bombers are burning. Major strike against russian military airbases, deep (~4500km) into russian territory.

Edit: found more details about that masterstrike @theguardian. This was a special operation 18 months in the making

Should know the damage from the strikes in a while. Sometimes numbers change. Drone factories blown up, factories else where, ships seized by both sides, French volunteers help defend/turn the tables in a break through in Ukraines lines (trap or not), some assassinations, attacks on russian assets in Syria, more planes blown up besides the bombers.

The Russian commander who led a bombing campaign against the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol has been killed in an apparent suicide blast attack.

WOW! that is impressive, I'm sure Putin will be shitting his pants around now.

[fiksal]

if Russian government works the same way as Soviet right now, Putin probably hasn't even heard these news

I just checked what government propaganda channel 1TV reported
- news about two blown up bridges
- good progress on the front line
- all is good it appears

[mr.WHO]

- news about two blown up bridges

Add Kerch Bridge to the list - it got hit today:

1TV says it didn't happen I guess

21:06
Ukrainian special services announced on social networks their allegedly successful attack on the Crimean Bridge

I have a very sad conclusion from "Operation Spider Web" - now everyone and their grandmother will have to invest into real drone defence around key infrastructure - since now it's rather easy to obtain trucks and load them with drones.

We can laught at Russia for sucking at war time defense, but the rest of the world is in peace time mode - we are bound for drone 9/11 sooner rather than later and it's not only a military targets that are at danger.

No, it was about a link by burger1 which he removed in an edit.

Now that's something new - Russian Su-25 shot down his own wingman with unguided rockets:

Did he owe him some money? or try to desert? So many questions, so few answers.

Russian news will read the next day that the brave pilot shot down three NATO jets, killing all 10 Americans onboard
