Yes, thank you for the latest delivery of steaming hot bull excrement from the Kremlin. Again - what percentage of it is true? 1%? 0.5%?

Well, this lists 839 Ukrainian MLRS systems destroyed, which is twice as many as Ukraine ever had, so...

It also says that russia shot down the two Harms that Ukraine reported firing at russian air defense systems in Nova Kakhovka yesterday.

I just watched video of those same russian air defense systems burning in Nova Kakhovka yesterday so ...



'Pants on fire' would be my assessment of all these russian 'reports'.

So nothing about the nuclear power plant that russia targeted with at least 9 cruise missiles last night?

Or the white phosphorus incendiaries detonated over civilian areas near Lyman?




Would that be the two HARMS launched from a Mig 29 that destroyed your S300 battery near Nova Kahovka?

You missed.

Must be weird for russians to be attacked by Mig 29s eh?

"Kiev regime continues its provocations aimed at creating a possible technological disaster at Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

Would this be the same power plant that has international observers on site 24x7?

Along with cameras and sensors?

Are russian front line units actually reporting this nonsense to the kremlin or does the kremlin just make it up every day?

Yes, they 'destroyed' themselves onto S300s, ammo dumps, and one good sized concentration of russian armor that was preparing for an attack.

By the way, there were only 24 missiles launches, 6 each from a battery of 4 launchers.

Is there a math problem with russian soldiers?

Perhaps tell the kremlin to at least release phony numbers that match the equipment being used.

Might be a 'little' more believable.






Russia still hasn't been able to shoot down any HIMARS rockets, but they at least learned to stop trying to get them with S400s, those things just self destruct in the air while trying to match HIMARS maneuvers.
