A 10-story residential building in Belgorod, Russia, was struck overnight by a Ukrainian missile, a local governor said.

"The Belgorod city and the Belgorod district came under a massive attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces," Vyacheslav Gladkov, governor of the Belgorod region, said in a post on Telegram.

The Ukrainian Tochka-U missile that struck the building was among several that Ukraine launched overnight, the Russian Ministry of Defense said in a statement.

Ukrainian military officials did not immediately comment on the claims, which could not immediately be verified.

Something tells me it malfunctioned. If they had wanted to target that building, it wouldn’t look that good.

I think it is about the fourth time that I’ve seen that same apartment building hit in the same exact place,

They’re scheduled to run out of men and munitions for the 6th time next week.

Your front has collapsed in Kharkiv, Donetsk, and Zaparozhia. That's what happens when you're short men and munitions.

Will we see photos of the people mourning over their bodies? Of course not. The media only shows Hamas victims and their crying relatives.

I only follow currency and bond markets. Things that actually exist.

I just happened to notice that this apartment building looked familiar.

Almost 2 1/2yrs of comedic bs nonsense on both sides but hey my front is collapsing for 19th time.

3 days to Kiev

The Russian strategy up to this point has been to advance slowly and use artillery to kill as many Ukrainian soldiers in the trenches as possible. However, this strategy no longer applies in Kharkiv, as the UAF has abandoned their positions in this province.

It’s taking a lot of Russian lives to kill Ukrainian lives.

Biden hasn’t stopped shipments to Ukraine yet because of the killing of civilians?

“Something tells me it malfunctioned. If they had wanted to target that building, it wouldn’t look that good.”

The idea is to DEMORALIZE the enemy when you know you cannot defeat them on the battlefield. That technique can be quite effective, as we did the same to Serbia, trashing their civilians after our attempt to defeat their military from 30,000 feet didn’t work. Hamas did the same on Oct 6th. It’s a good technique, but it does require having the media and Western governments covering your backs, as is the case on all 3 of the examples cited here.

Let me see if I understand this correctly. For the sake of argument let’s go with Ukrainians did this and did this on purpose, and if so that makes them a “nazi terrorist regime “, yet daily Russia launches missiles, artillery, and bombs into Ukrainian cities, many far from the front and razing many to the ground.
So that makes russia what?

The selective outrage is amazing

Perhaps, but in historical context the “great patriotic war”, you know the one that started jun 22 1941( sep39-jun 41 apparently does not count as Russia was allied with Nazi germany where Russia invaded Poland then Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania, and who can forget the great finish winter war of 39)and ended may 9th(may 8 for the rest of us).

Not quite 4 years, so after over half the time of the “great patriotic war” Russia is “winning” with motorcycle and golf cart glorious assaults.

Got it
