Re: Main news thread - conflicts, terrorism, crisis from around the globe
"A big missile and drone day has been announced today in Ukraine. It started at 3 a.m. in the Zhytomyr region, and for good reason. According to the FSB, an attempt was made by the Kiev regime to recruit a Russian Aerospace Forces pilot to hijack the Tu-22M3 missile carrier. It turned out, however, as usual - instead of an airplane, cruise missiles arrived at the Ozernoye airfield. Such an episode already happened in March 2022, when the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense tried to lure a Su-34 pilot. After investigation documents into this incident were published in 2023, it became known that several aircraft were destroyed and the officers of the unit who were waiting for the “hijacker” were eliminated. The only successful operation was the hijacking of a helicopter, after which its executor was shot dead in Spain like a mad dog, and his carcass was run over several times by a car.
At Ozernoye, by the way, the standard four Tu-95MS operated. In the face of air defense and radar massacres, it has not been necessary to use more aircraft for a long time. Also, a second strike on the air base near Zhitomir was carried out at about 11 o’clock."

Re: Main news thread - conflicts, terrorism, crisis from around the globe
Russia was targeting military objects in Kiev, and the strike on the hospital was caused by an AIM-120 air defense missile from the NASAMS system used by the Ukrainian side. This is evidenced by the proportional dimensions of the missile (diameter and length) and the nature of the damage (collapse of only a small part of the building and shrapnel damage on neighboring buildings). Footage showing shrapnel typical of air defense missiles was shared directly on Ukrainian Telegram channels.
The length of the AIM-120 missile is 366 cm, the diameter is 17.8 cm, and the length-to-diameter ratio is 1/20.6. For the X-101, these parameters are 745 cm, 74.2 cm, with a ratio of 1/10, and for the Kh-55, they are 588 cm, 51.4 cm, with a ratio of 1/11.4. In the screenshot from the video, it is clearly visible that even with the angle of the footage, the length of the missile exceeds its diameter by more than 15 times.
Indirect evidence includes the absence of the characteristic sound of Russian missile engines (the whistle in the second video is present but differs from that of a X-101) and the arrival of the projectile from the western direction.

Today I hear that some Ukie player was giving it all the crocodile tears at the end of the match re: the childrens hospital, which was clearly not a target.
FUCK Wimbledon. And fuck this piece of shit country I am stuck in.

Yeah that top centre image being compared to an AIM-120 is really stretching credulity. And frankly, that whistle in the second vid I saw is indicative of a turbojet used by by Russian cruise missiles, and not the solid fuel motor used by an AIM-120.
It's irrelevant anyway, the hospital was clearly not the target, Russia is not Ukraine or Israel.
My tuppence worth.

⠀
Unfortunately, one person died from his wounds. I express my sincere condolences to the family and loved ones of the deceased. This is an irreparable loss...
Preliminarily, two civilians were injured. One man with a mine explosion injury and a shrapnel wound to his arm was taken to city hospital No. 2 in Belgorod. All necessary assistance is provided. The second victim received medical assistance on the spot and will continue to receive treatment on an outpatient basis.
⠀
According to preliminary information, in the city of Belgorod, windows were broken in three private houses and in 12 apartments in 8 apartment buildings, and 2 cars were hit by shrapnel. 3 economic entities and 2 social facilities were also damaged.
In the Belgorod region, after air defense forces repelled an air attack from the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the village of Maisky, the roof of a private house was broken and a passenger car was damaged by shrapnel.
All operational services are working on the ground. The information is being clarified.

there is definitely a push for propaganda points (by both sides). But in war, accidents happen. after all, all sides are using live ammunition. things can go wrong.
I would say it is highly doubtful that Russian federation was deliberately targeting children hospital. Same thing is with that incident where himars rocket exploded over a beach in crimea. To qoute forrest gump "shit happens"

Following the Beirut airport fiasco, two IRGC-linked ships have landed at the Syria port of Latakia in the past week.
Iranian-flagged and OFAC-sanctioned vessel KASHAN is set to arrive in just over 24 hours.
IRGC-linked DAISY recently unloaded at Latakia as well.

News from Zelenskyi's concentration camp: The Ukrainian boy from Kiev, who shot the video from the balcony of his house in which we see that the children's hospital was hit by a US missile from a Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile, was arrested this afternoon by the police and the SBU, Ukrainian intelligence service.
Thanks to this guy, the entire Western propaganda operation failed. Now the Ukronazis will take revenge on him.
