On the evening of 5 May, Russian occupation forces used phosphorus and incendiary ammunition in the city of Bakhmut, Donetsk Oblast.
"The enemy used phosphorous and incendiary ammunition in Bakhmut, trying to wipe the city off the face of the Earth

Actually he was bluffing - it worked.
That is a screen shot from a video game.

Nothing worse then willy pete. Thought that was against the Geneva convention on major population centers.
I think that video is from a video game. It or one exactly like it was on another site last year.
word, words, good ones, bad ones... Mean nothing. Sell your stuff, buy ticket to Ukraine like a man would do, instead of bleating like a sheep in a grate. A man can respect that action, right or wrong. Now back to helping the women in the kitchen, while the men discuss what they did in the last war.

Putin rains incendiary munitions on Bakhmut | Russia flattens Ukraine arms depot in Donetsk

Naive Putin wanted to join NATO once upon a time. That's when he learned about Russianphobia!
“I hope that somehow the Ukrainians slaughter the Russian bastards.”
It is good to see the Russians slaughtering the Ukrainian bastards who are using my country for money laundering of our taxpayer money!
Apparntly the effectiveness of the use of HIMARS missiles in Ukraine has significantly decreased....The reason is the use of electronic countermeasures by Russian troops to shoot down GPS targeting systems. accoring to CNN reporting.
Well said 👍
Fake numbers, WWII Germany, a world war, and why would you use a fake Vonnegut number to attack WWII America to defend this Russian invasion?
On about February 14th the Americans came over, followed by the R.A.F. their combined labors killed 250,000 people in 24 hours and destroyed all of Dresden—possibly the world’s most beautiful city. But not me.”

My mother, still living, survived Dresden.
The 250,000 number has been discredited as Soviet propaganda. More realistic figures are 25-35,000.
The firebombing of Tokyo on 09-10 March 1945 killed an estimated 100,000.
If the counter offensive works I don’t think they will go lightly on the Russians.

Exactly why Vlad will never, ever give up the ethnic Russian provinces he has liberated.
“Vonnegut was a fiction writer. The actual number killed in the Dresden bombing was a lot closer to 25,000 and probably not over 35,000. Which is still a lot of people.”
And the entire city of Dresden was not destroyed; but four square miles of the city center sure as hell was (which bore the brunt of the firestorm).
There’s a good book on this raid titled “The Fire and the Darkness,” by Sinclair McKay; which I just happened to have read not too long ago. His source put the number at 25,000 civilians killed in that raid. There are other books on this raid, many of which I’ve read. I remember the figure 22,000 being mentioned in another book. Perhaps more eventually died because of their injuries, which would increase the total number dead claimed to something north of 25,000.
It was a horrific attack. And yet, it was not the worst firebombing of the war: The firebombing of Japan killed between 80,000 and 100,000 in one night.
You can bet the farm that Ukraine did this particular attack back in September since this village was already "liberated" according to the article. The video looks to be a video game to me, but the point is to blame Russia, Russia, Russia!

"Thermite is an incendiary weapon said to be used by both Russian and Ukrainian forces, this time over the village of Ozerne in the Donetsk region, which was liberated just weeks ago.
While technically not illegal under international law, and often used in combat, it is considered a war crime "when it is found to have been used to deliberately target civilians", Amnesty International's Nikita White previously explained."

I’m genuinely surprised they have not used nukes yet.
