The first part of the article was about the Russians hitting targets in and around Kiev...

“The U.K. intelligence said the Iranian drones are “slow and fly at low altitudes” with a small explosive payload, unable to fulfill “the deep strike function which Russia probably aspired to use it for.”

Even when shot down they still either explodes or start fires

Bigger and better Iranian hardware on the way.

Yeah, the Nazis were convinced the mass introduction of V2 strikes (Sept. 1944) would turn the war around too ... hey, V2s were unstoppable!!

needless to say, it didn’t

these Iranian pinpricks won’t either ... but they WILL make the Ukrainian people more determined to continue the fight

What, with a pinprick vengeance hit on a residential area? The V-1s and V-2s did far more damage in World War 2.

Elsewhere, in southern and eastern Ukraine, notice that the trees are losing their leaves making hiding in the EVER PRESENT WOODLINES surrounding the open fields much less effective. Things happen when you can’t hide. Just sayin’.

The joy people seem to have for the death and destruction says volumes. Russia started this even if Ukraine joined NATO. Who out there besides Putin thinks that NATO would attack Russia. This is all about Putin and people taking joy in the suffering of Ukrainians is sad. The fact that Russia is activating T-62s and buying munitions from Iran and possibly Korea mobilizing 1000s of Russians to continue the “special operation” also speaks volumes about Russia’s military situation. Will this all result in the destruction and occupation of Ukraine seems likely but for what cost. The world has gone mad once again

Wait, what! I thought the propaganda was that no nations would align with Russia. Of course, anyone paying attention knew that was all bunk.

Didn’t hear that the Ukrainians dropped another S300 on Kiev. No surprise.

also speaks volumes about Russia’s military situation.
———
The billions the West is giving Ukraine, now officially a welfare state , speaks volumes about the Ukrainian military situation….Vlad spends pennies, the West billions.

Guess who runs out of money and equipment first? And Vlad says Checkmate again.

Meanwhile many of the nations supplying Ukraine with money and hardware are putting their economies into a near depression to fight this war.

Word of warning, you never know what poster you are responding to, rumors are going around of posters using multiple identities to give the impression of vast support for the current situation and impending Russian doom.

Well, close to 70 percent of the world’s population refuses to honor vegetable head Biden’s sanctions and his Ukie war. Russia/ China/ India/ SA/ME , Africa and Brics ALL had enough of US hedgemony, war mongering, and woke far left agenda.

mobilizing 1000s of Russians


Real number is 2.1 million, but not all will be conscripted.
