    I’d love to know if all these drone strikes and explosions deep into Russian territory are some spy shit going down or partisans or whatever. It’s going to make for some interesting documentaries in years to come I think

      So far every location hit by Ukrainian drones is a legitimate military target, unlike Russia that targets schools, hospitals, and apartment buildings.

      The fact the drones are getting all the way to Moscow without being tracked is amazing. A complete failure by the Russian military and intelligence service. Before long they will strike the Kremlin.

        Remember Mathias Rust? The guy who landed on the Red Square, right in front of the Kremlin? He landed there in broad daylight with his Cessna, coming from western Europe. At the height of the cold war. Nobody saw him coming…

          “Within a year of returning to Hamburg, Rust stabbed a colleague at a hospital where he worked and ended up behind bars again.” Hol up

            Well, flying a chessna into cold war russia was not a sane decision, either.

        Not amazing, good ecm and coordination with allies that have spying/surveillance capabilities than most of that entire swaths of former bloc states.

        I imagine the us is having a bit of a laugh in yet again arming the little guy and bankrupting the ussr/Russia for pennies on the dollar.

        Didn’t they fly drones into office buildings in Moscow? I get that it was late at night and empty etc etc but just doesn’t seem like a legitimate target as you say.

          Yes, the building housed the ministry of economic development, the digital ministry and the ministry of industry and trade.

          Because the drones were shot down and crashed into them.

      Probably it’s just Putin bombing his slaves citizens to justify some extreme action against Ukraine in the near future. I mean he did that before.

    That was an impressive one. Not just blocking the “special military operation is contained” narrative like the other deep strikes, but also hitting high tech war supplies.

    I just read the military optics company was renting warehouse space to a pyrotechnics company. So, this is either a successful operation or a horrible reminder not to put tactical magnifying glasses next to a giant pile of fireworks when the sun is out.

    Maybe this is what Russians get for giving Putin free reign for a quarter of a century.

    Don’t want to see anyone get hurt, but FFS the Russian people just went along with it when Putin came to power and steadily gained ever more control of the government. The Russian people could have stopped this 10, 15, 20 years ago but didn’t. Now they have an entrenched mad man in there who controls everything, has gotten them into a pointless war in Ukraine, and clearly shows no sign of stepping down.

    Attacks on Russian soil have only started.

      Russians have tried to get him out of office but then they get arrested, radiation poisoning or suicided.

        They’ve had protests, sure, and individuals have tried to go up against him, but never in the masses needed to overthrow his government.

      Sadly Bill Clinton and Tony Blair backed Putin initially. It’s not totally the people’s fault.

        Bill was President up until 2001 and Putin gained power only 2 years earlier. At the time there was no reason not to support him. He was a freely elected leader. But that was 2 decades ago and a whole lot of things changed since then.

    This is exceptionally interesting considering the fact that Ukraine has made great use of western-supplied night vision against Russian forces. It seems logical that they would want to deny such an advantage to their enemies.
