The German publication BILD reports that the German consulate in Kiev was damaged as a result of today's strikes.

The Gauleiter of Krivoy Rog confirmed serious damage to an infrastructure facility (most likely the Krivoy Rog Thermal Power Plant) in the city, which led to a lack of electricity and water in a number of areas of the city.

The head of Eurodiplomacy Borrell condemned the attacks on Kiev and promised Ukraine additional military assistance from the EU

The Kryvyi Rih TPP was hit very hard, the damage was significant. Let me remind you that this is the thermal power plant directly at the front, at which our soldiers were ordered not to shoot, although Ukrainian gunners were hiding on it.

These are moves that they should have been making since the first couple of months of the war.

what about the combined 500, 000 convicts and grandpas Wagner is recruiting for abobaku hunter Putin?


Wagner is doing it's own recruitment separately. It will be impossible for the private military company to get 100k men let alone 500k.

Russia govt is trying to raise 300k on it own. The DPR, LPR, Kherson, Zaprophizia e.t.c are doing the same on their own. All these men won't be ready until next year. They need minimum of 3 months of training.

Even when they are ready, they will not be sent to the frontline. This is why...

If you send 250k troops to war. 2/3 of the 250k will not be sent to the frontline. You need a substantial number of the troops to protect your supply line. In the case of Russia. The already controlled territories in the Donbas and the new territories the Russian took (Kherson, Zaprophizia & Kharkiv) were also manned by part of the 250k troops. Likewise the key infrastructures in those areas like Power stations, Rail stations, Nuclear plant, administration buildings e.t.c

So only about 1/3 are sent to the frontline. That was why I said if the Russians have truly lost 80k. The Ukrainians should be able to push the Russians out of Ukraine entirely in less than a week. When these 300k troops are ready next year. The Russian soldiers, Chenchens, LPR & DPR e.t.c that are already in Ukraine but not on the frontline, will be sent to the frontline. While most of the 300k will replace them by taking over the protection of the supply line, the key infrastructures e.t.c. Then bit by bit, in the future the reservists will be sent to the frontline to fight through rotation.

It is my belief that the provocation on the Crimean bridge was planned to see the extent Russia will retaliate. In war no chess piece is moved without an objective.

Maybe just maybe Ukraine already knew what retaliation from Russia would look like. The Kremlin should thread with caution because NATO, EU and the US are monitoring launch locations.

The bomb on that bridge was Russian job meant to choke the war effort from within. Putin is rounding up soldiers around Moskow as we speak in an effort to prevent a coup against him.
The bridge sabotage was to help severe all annexed regions from Russia mainland and discourage Putin.

If they get involved, we can all say our last prayers. The poisedon submarine is already stationed in international waters with nuclear warheads to cost catastrophic radioactive coastal destructions in enemy waters and coasts. No one will win a nuclear Armageddon.

The SBU openly claimed responsibility alongside their foreign demo team. I have read about Putin securing the Kremlin but it’s only on NL. As usual confidential sources in CIA and the White House. Need I remind you that Putin is not GEJ that had Guards Brigades deployed without his knowledge and permission. The Federal Guard Service of Russia reports directly to Putin and those guys are no joke.

Let’s assume some actors wanted the gloves off in dealing with Ukraine

I think they are trying to figure out if Russia is running low of high precision missiles or not.

The West already know the location of the missiles. Some are fired from war ships on the black sea (Kalibr Cruise), some fired from air through Belarus and black sea using bomber (KH-101 Cruise Missiles) and some fired from Russia territory (Iskanker Ballistic/Cruise missile).

They know already but there is nothing they can do about it. It is not there war.

This is total rubbish. I think the West initially thought this is Putin's war. That was why they were clamouring for a regime change in Russia. But the moment they realise that the Russian military leaders are pushing Putin to do more in dealing with Ukraine crisis. They back off immediately. Just pray that the military don't take over in Russia. The pro-West in Russia are the minorities and they are already leaving Russia for the fear of being called up.

Putin can't fight the military. If they want to take over, there is nothing he can do. Trust me they are strongly behind him.
