Russia reports several drone strikes on Moscow buildings as Kyiv is attacked again
The Associated Press, via NPR ^ | May 30, 2023 | Charles Maynes

Russian authorities reported several drone attacks on the capital Moscow Tuesday morning, damaging several residential buildings.

Explosions were reported in several districts of Moscow and outlying regions of the city as Russian air defense systems attempted to intercept the drones.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed minor damage to several residential buildings but reported no serious injuries.

City rescue crews are cleaning up the debris and Russia's Investigative Committee said its inspectors were also on the scene gathering forensics evidence.

Russia's Defense Ministry called the incident a "terrorist attack" and insisted just eight drones had been spotted over the capital. Independent media reports suggested that number of drones could be much higher.

Good. Maybe if the Russians experience some of this war they started they’ll demand an end to it.

Russia attacks Kiev day in and day out. Do they not expect Moscow might get it too?

Yep. Depose Putin and get a leader that is willing to join the civilized world.

“Moscow getting a taste of its own medicine this morning...”

This is all fine and dandy until Moscow decides to retaliate with a few tactical nuclear strikes in defense of their homeland. A heavier dose of medicine.

Hello World War III.

First, expect it's a false flag.
Putin's orcs wanting to unite Russians behind his invasion of Ukraine by bombing their own people.

Putin’s troll army will be along shortly to threaten nuclear war if Moscow gets hit by anymore glorified RC airplanes. They think Russia gets to invade other countries, make threats, poison people in other countries, and no one’s supposed to do a bloody thing to them.

They’re a schoolyard bully who hates it when their victims fight back.

You're stepping all over Timber Rat's talking point.

Moscow getting a taste of its own medicine this morning...

Y'all need to coordinate a little better.

Yup...internet war is hard. Maybe pre-thread zoom meetings might help.

No fan of all the borrowed money Biden’s handlers are pumping into Ukraine, but this is a false flag op to justify Putin using nukes and to declare martial law in his own country.

“They’re a schoolyard bully who hates it when their victims fight back.”

This is just plain stupid. It is possible the war can escalate no matter who is in the wrong. I know of a country that firebombed cities killing hundreds of thousands of civilians and when that didn’t work they dropped nuclear bombs on cities to stop a war.

Millions upon millions died less than a century ago, both the morally superior and those that were not. Being right or wrong did not change the outcome. War is never fair to the victims. You have no idea how close (either do I) we are to the start of a nuclear war and being right in your mind does not change the fact. If Putin is the nutcase you say he is, be prepared for hell throughout the world.

If Putin is a nutcase then defeating him before he starts another war is all the more important.

I will argue False Flag. Putin needs to get rid of his war criminal and reparation charges.

For that to happen, there must be hits on Russian non military targets

Since there are none, he must do it himself

To: anyone

My cousin on Facebook posted this morning Zelensky has issued an announcement that Ukraine is ready for their offensive. All Brigades in position and ready so it should be any day now, maybe even today.

Can’t verify it, looked it up on a Google search and nothing came up.
