Russian ballistic missile strikes kill at least 6 people in Zelenskyy's hometown

What do you expect if you launch drone attacks on Russia?!

War is war... and paybacks are a b**ch!

As predicted yesterday, the poorly thought out attacks on Moscow will lead to this and many more.

Wasn’t such a good idea to attack civilians in Moscow, and then gloat, now was it?

Wasn't such a good idea to invade a country on a BS lie at the expense of 1/2 or more of their front line tanks, was it?

Baby killers! putin sleeps well at night, knowing her rockets killed yet a few more children today :( .

"Russian ballistic missile strikes kill at least 6 people in Zelenskyy's hometown"

.... including a 10-year-old child!

Once again, as so often, civilians as well as civilian infrastructure are the targets of PUTAin's aggressors!

They are oh so good at "de-nazifying" Ukraine.

Oh, and by the way, that 3-day-limited-operation has bee extended to roughly 550 days!

Ukraine prevails!

Some people seem to misunderstand what is going on here. The drone attacks inside Russia ARE the payback. As somebody said yesterday, attacks on civilians don’t weaken resolve, they strengthen it. You can guarantee there is going to be more happening in Russia.

Wasn’t such a good idea to attack civilians in Moscow, and then gloat, now was it?

Because before then the Russian invaders handy previously targeted Ukrainian civilians, right?

Using your own logic though:

Wasn't such a good idea invading Ukraine, now was it?

EFD,what is so special about Ukrainain,they are not the only people in the world, catching hell,and some of it might be their fault,for having a corrupt government

Because before then the Russian invaders handy previously targeted Ukrainian civilians, right?

Whaddabout!

all Russian missiles were “shot down”.

What you're saying, ffs, is when a bully beats you up and takes your dinner money, on no account should you try to stop him hitting you, or hit him back; instead, roll over, give him your bus money too, and hope he doesn't kick you as he takes your dog, bike and shoes as 'recompense' for scraping his knuckles on your chin.

Every death and injury, every damaged or destroyed building in this war is the fault of none other than tzar Vlad the Despicable.

He will get what's coming to him.

It is interesting that killing the parents in front of their child, in a strike on a civilian bridge, wasn't worthy of condemnation when the Kyiv regime did it, at least in the eyes of those most upset by the Russian response to Zelensky's attacks on civilian residental buildings in Moscow.

And of course those who share the Kyiv regime's contempt for Russian speakers don't see that what Zelensky was boasting he was about to do to Russian speaking Ukrainians amounted to the same thing Barayagwiza was saying about the Tutsis.

Was tempted to ask Romeo Dallaire when he was recently in Edmonton if he would have intervened in the Rwandan civil war while it was still a small thing if he'd been allowed to, but he actually made it clear he would have in his book. And didn't have the chance to point out that if he had, it would have opened the door to accusations like those the White Bloc have made about Putin being made about him by those outside the White Bloc.

Whaddabout

Lol no. Not "whaddabout."

If Russia targeting Ukrainian civilians was the result Ukraine allegedly 'targetting Russian civilians, then why was Russia targeting Ukrainian civilians prior to then?

Obviously the Russia. Military attack Ukrainian civilians regardless of what Ukraine does.

cleo

No, what I’m saying is what I said. If Ukraine attacks Moscow they will retaliate big time and will lead to more Ukrainians civilians dying. I said it yesterday and it happened. Not stating what is right or wrong, just the facts.

No, what I’m saying is what I said. If Ukraine attacks Moscow they will retaliate big time and will lead to more Ukrainians civilians dying. 

The classic logic of the domestic abuser. "If you resist my abuse, I will REALLY beat you. So don't resist."

The correct response is a frypan to the head of the abuser and that is coming.

EFD

wasnt saying who is right or wrong, just saying what would happen after the Moscow attacks and was proven correct. Please try to put emotions aside and deal with the facts.

Hilarious! And if there wasn't a drone attack on Moscow, but the had missile strikes on civilians, what would your excuse be?

Ukraine didn't attack civilians and yes it was a good idea. Attacking Moscow brings the war home to Russians.

Also, Russia fires missiles on Ukrainian cities regardless.

Considering there are 700,000 child abductees from Ukraine in Russia, does that mean Russia killed parents in front of 700,000 kids potentially?

Ukraine didn't attack civilians and yes it was a good idea. Attacking Moscow brings the war home to Russians.

Moscow business district isn’t civilians?

Early morning? How many civilians were killed?

Doesn't matter to some. The point is Ukraine is very bad. When Russia unilaterally invades, and inevilitably targets civilians Ukrainians are just supposed to beg for peace and mercy, when Ukraine launches missiles at Russia., Russia is right attack civilians. Or so they say.

Nuclear weapons on the table if Ukraine counteroffensive succeeds: Russia’s Medvedev

https://www.politico.eu/article/russia-dmitry-medvedev-ukraine-counteroffensive-russia-invasion-war-nuclear-weapons/

This whole war, was/is perpetrated by the Putin's Russian dictatorship government and regime

On a pack of lies and deceit from a dictator and his demonic faceless inner circle so instigating fueling a war without end in Europe again.

So 2023/2024 could be a pivotal moment in European history, the possible use of tactical battlefield nuclear weapons, could I suggest have such grave consequences to force an escalation globally.

I am afraid the European Governments/EU refusal to face warning after warning of Putin's political duplicity must now share and face the consequence.

The foolish hapless Marcon ego fueled political posturing, coupled with Angela Merkel German inward selfish energy policy.

Two devastating wars, did our so called political élite learn anything?

Other than to grab broom handles and pitch forks.

Apparently EU President Ursula von der Leyen, when German defense minster go to option in the face of any possible future Russian government aggression

About Prigogine and Wagner. Prigozh recently announced that Wagner was returning to the Russian-Ukrainian front on August 5. So, welcome.

Today the moderators are not sleeping, they are strangling the slightest word of truth:)

Best to commit your limited resources to attacking military targets instead of civilian ones.

Keep pounding, Ukraine!

It better,that war be fought on European soil,than in America,let European be the sacrificial lamb for their own duplicity with Putin

That's the idea behind killing killing the Russian in Ukraine rather than in Latvia where the US would have to be on the battlefield.

Best to commit your limited resources to attacking military targets instead of civilian ones.

It's a rare case when I agree with you. But, alas, your storm shadows shoot mainly at the residential quarters of Donetsk and the bridges of the Crimea.

Russia is right attack civilians

not attacking civilians.

its "debris" from every single Russian missile that is "shot down" by Ukraine.

not attacking civilians.

No. They're attacking civilians. Believe me: I have Ukrainian friends whose elderly parent's condominium was targeted with Russian missile strikes in the opening months of the war.

This is precisely what I mean: Ukrainian civilians deserve to get pummeled, and it's wrong for Ukraine to resist.

Odd. I don’t see anything about claims of missiles being shot down in the article.

The ‘Crimean bridges’ are not civilian targets. Moscow uses them for transporting troops, equipment and ammo. They are legitimate military targets.

As for ‘killing the parents in front of their child’, what was a civilian family doing in a war zone in the middle of the night? Note that the attack on the Kersh Bridge was at three in the morning , to minimize casualties.

wasnt saying who is right or wrong

No need to be coy; why not state clearly that it is WRONG to invade a neighbour, wreck his land and steal his kids; and it is RIGHT to do everything possible to push the invader back where he came from.

what Zelensky was boasting he was about to do to Russian speaking Ukrainians

What was Zelensky boasting he was about to do to Russian-speaking Ukrainians? You do know that Zelensky himself is a Russian-speaking Ukrainian?

what was a civilian family doing in a war zone in the middle of the night? 

wow, nice victim blaming.

a civilian bridge isnt a ”war zone“ if Ukraine doesnt attack it and make it into one.

Except Ukrainian hadn't been supplied with air defense systems at the time. 

hadnt they? yet you mentioned the cathedral from last week.

that theater, just like the pizza parlor, was hosting military troops.

Dont you remember that Amnesty International told us Ukraine hides troops inside civilian areas? Well until they were criticized and deleted that.

a civilian bridge isnt a ”war zone“ if Ukraine doesnt attack it and make it into one.

While we all know how concerned rightists are about civilians being injured, It's not a civilian bridge when it's being used to transport weapons.

is the Pentagon a military target when they are planning wars there?

hadnt they? yet you mentioned the cathedral from last week.

No. They hadn't. They were supplied with air defense as a direct result of Russian attacks on civilians.

that theater, just like the pizza parlor, was hosting military troops.

No it wasn't. These are RT talking points. Pathetic.

For anyone doubting Russian attacks on civilians, you're welcome:

Just wait till the UA liberates Crimea and Mini-me has no answer. Or when his government ministry buildings start to spontaneously combust.

Wonder what that will do for his tough-guy persona?

action-reaction

if any of you have expected that Russia will just sit and do nothing must be or uniformed or very naive.

UA is desperate and chances that can win over Russia and defeat Russia are as even lower than one month ago when UA side had some 30% of NATO tanks and armoured carriers more...as these became rubbish lately.

so as their so called spring offensive...

if any of you have expected that Russia will just sit and do nothing must be or uniformed or very naive.

Then maybe Russia shouldn’t have invaded. Very naive to think the Ukrainians wouldn't fight back.

EFD

wasnt saying who is right or wrong,

Of course you are. You have created excuses for the fascists in Moscow for Day one and bemoaned any setback they have had.

You are not an impartial observer and nobody here believes your "who me?" excuses.

The Pentagon is a 24/7 target for Russia that has nuclear missiles targeted at it.

a 24/7 military target?

so if it were struck, all the civilians who work there were just "wrong place, wrong time" and could be victim blamed? why were they there?

Blacklabel

> so if it were struck, all the civilians who work there were just "wrong place, wrong time" and could be victim blamed? why were they there?

If that were to happen there would be no further discussions about anything just which parts of the world survived a nuclear holocaust.

Except the action was Russia attacking Ukraine, the reaction was Ukraine striking back.

If anyone thought Ukraine would just sit down and be taken over in 72 hours, they must be Russian or very Putin.

Russia targeting civilians is 'business as usual'. It has nothing to do with drones in Moscow.

Blacklabel - the Pentagon is unequivocally a military target as are US military bases wherever they are located. Who is suggesting that they aren’t?

this conflict will end as soon as money flow from UAS/EU for Kiev regime will get dry.

since this conflict still makes a a lot of nice profit for US gun lobby-carnage at UA battlefield must continue.

Mr.Austin may know more details abt that...

Russians doing terrorist attacks on civilians? again? to be expected from the evil regime residing in the Kremlin.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Monday that his forces have increased the intensity of attacks on Ukrainian military facilities.

I think means hospitals, supermarkets, restaurants and apartment buildings, and other well known Military centers of operations../s

this conflict will end as soon as money flow from UAS/EU for Kiev regime will get dry.

This conflict will end as soon as Xi pulls the plug on his proxy war with Ukraine as a dry-run for Taiwan. The Russian people will be left with all the blame, and none of the support.

This conflict will end when the Russians quit or are strategically defeated.

"Wasn't such a good idea invading Ukraine, now was it?"

Agree....no doubt Putin would do things differently with hindsight seeing the cost to Russia.

"This conflict will end as soon as Xi pulls the plug on his proxy war with Ukraine as a dry-run for Taiwan. "

Nonsense.

The latest news appeared today at about 03:40 Moscow time: Several drones were shot down by air defense while trying to fly to Moscow. One flew to the SAME tower in the City as the last time. The facade at the 17th floor level is damaged. Emergency services are working . Waiting for an answer if JT has the courage to publish the truth about the upcoming events.

That's in Moscow? If so, good news!

Action-reaction. Invade a foreign nation, your own gets droned.

For Moscow, the destruction is minimal.

Yeah, I'm sure the people don't mind getting droned. All in a day's war, right?

All the propaganda in the world cannot hide the civilian casualties. And two countries that formed the backbone of the Soviet Union, intermarrying and working together for 70 years. Putin is a monster for pitting them against each other.

The Russian people will be left with all the blame, and none of the support.

Russians have never had friends and helpers. As the Russian tsar Alexander II said: we have only two friends - the army and the navy. So, no one is counting on help

So, no one is counting on help

good!

Russians have never had friends and helpers.

That's right, China is not your friend. Russia is China's puppet, doing a dry-run of invading a foreign nation so China can see how the world will react when they invade Taiwan.

Russia has no friends, because Putin thought that by becoming China's proxy, he could get Ukraine quickly and easily (in 72 hours). Instead he sold out Russia's future for China's ambitions as part of their proxy war, and ended up alienating the rest of the world.

How does it feel to know the Russian people are puppets of China? I wouldn't feel good if it were my people.

Russians have never had friends and helpers. As the Russian tsar Alexander II said: we have only two friends - the army and the navy.

astounds me you don't see the irony in that.
