Breaking News: Russia Deploys Advanced Oreshnik Missile in Strike on Ukraine's Largest Underground Gas Storage Facility in Lviv Region

In a significant escalation of the ongoing conflict, Russian forces have reportedly launched an Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) targeting a critical infrastructure site in Western Ukraine's Lviv (Lvov) region. Ukrainian officials confirm the attack struck the Bilche-Volytsko-Uherske underground gas storage facility near Stryi—the largest in Europe with a capacity of over 17 billion cubic meters, accounting for more than half of Ukraine's total gas storage network.

The strike, which occurred in the early hours of January 9, 2026, caused powerful explosions heard across multiple regions, including Lviv, Ternopil, and Rivne. While exact damage assessments are ongoing, preliminary reports indicate potential disruptions to Ukraine's winter energy supply, including heating, power generation, and gas transit to Europe. No immediate casu∆lties have been reported by local authorities, though emergency services are on site extinguishing fires and evaluating impacts.

This marks the second confirmed combat use of the hypersonic Oreshnik missile, following its initial deployment in Dnipro in late 2024. The attack follows a U.S. Embassy security alert warning of a potential major air assault, highlighting heightened tensions amid Russia's continued targeting of Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

Stay tuned for updates as the situation develops. #Ukraine #RussiaUkraineWar #BreakingNews

out of 193 countries
if you can't go to bat for your core 6 allies then why is he wasting everyone's time


interestingly, venezuela does not need an active intervention
it only needs an economic lifeline
dispatch a flotilla to reliably break the blockade
that's it
the worst that'd happen is troop deployment and venezuela is vietnam on steroids

6 out of 193 countries
and the largest economy, navy, and most populous country on the planet is giving excuses that would embarrass f*cking sandal-wearing militants in yemen
and it's not like these countries are basket cases
russia is a superpower. iran is formidable. both have their respective hegemonies and are civilization states, venezuela has the largest oil reserves. cuba is a small island nation in a prime location facing off a foe that could practically squash it like a bug. north korea is ride or die.
each one of them is a first round pick of resilience and sheer f*cking chutzpah deserving of xi's overt support and yet he's dropping lamba about international law
f*ck international law. f*cking act.

does he think the us will stop with venezuela
let them finish up setting up their alternate supply chains for chips, rare earth, and the core industrial metals
they will give every major supplier of chinese raw materials the same choice they gave maduro
kick out the chinese or spend the night in rikers
they already attempted same in panama and in the netherlands
just outrightly try to seize chinese billions in investment and unceremoniously kick 'em out and there's no war yet

-Lord

FoolishBoy419:
That will not happen in our lifetime. USA lacks the means to refine rare earths and China has made it nearly unprofitable for companies to venture into the sector.

emmaodet:
That was that China is afraid to fight and avoiding, whether they like it or not, they will fight it.
Whatever projection they think they are planning won't work.
I read someone wrote by 2050, China will displace the US by doing nothing but continue in this road they are.
Helloooo??
If China continues on this road, by 2030, they would have moved so backward instead of forward that it will alarm them.
You can only thrive, expand and rich if your interest is been protected else, you will become poorer.
The last company I worked for is a French company that went broke and bankrupted and they had to sell it to a bidder.
Chinese companies were the foremost bidders but just for the company not to fall into the hands of Chinese and make them stronger, American companies came onboard and it was sold to them.
50% of the properties in the company were owned by Chinese investors and they are been forced out to sell the properties cheaper or face the option of these properties not getting contracts and costing the Chinese owners maintenance money.
Either way. They are being banged.
This is what is happening at the background/behind the scene in the corporate world far from the public eyes unlike the war that is popular.
The Americans are going any length to push out Chinese investors, companies and rendering them poorer.
China will never get richer towing this part.

BREAKING: President Trump says the United States will launch bombing operations inside Mexico to eliminate the drug cartels once and for all.
"We are gonna start now hitting land, with regard to the cartels. The cartels are running Mexico."
"It's very, very sad to watch and see what's happened to that country, but the cartels are running and they're killing 300,000 people in our country every single year."

Trump on Operation Eagle Claw:

We had the helicopters crashing, the sandstorms. If you had sandstorms you should come back, but they tried to blast through the sandstorm.

LordAdam16:
i always find that argument puzzling
like if you have ever managed a business, you will not make that argument

take the average shop in nigeria dealing with energy issues, multiple taxations, and sh*t
maybe there is no gasoline because of scarcity
local government tax collectors locked your shop
unsatisfied customer called the police for you
logistics called you to inform you that your goods were in a truck that was in an accident or something

then someone will wake up and say you don't have to act

Tonight, in response to the terrorist attack by the Kiev regime on the residence of the President of the Russian Federation in the Novgorod region, carried out on the night of December 29, 2025, the Russian Armed Forces have launched a massive strike with high-precision long-range ground and sea-based weapons, including the mobile medium-range ground-based missile system 'Oreshnik', as well as drone strikes on critical facilities in Ukraine.

The objectives of the strike have been achieved. The targets of the attack were the production facilities of unmanned aerial vehicles, which were used in the terrorist attack, as well as the energy infrastructure that supports the operation of Ukraine's military-industrial complex.

Any terrorist actions by the criminal Ukrainian regime will continue to receive a response".

Alamkiir:
Putin join the vexing of the ship and attack on his home together for this attack. I will like to see more though, especially direct ceasing of American ship. Because that Trump is already using it to boast
