Russian invasion of Ukraine

[YUPPIE]

Report: The Russians are reportedly planning a big show of environmental terrorism as a false flag, of which is said to cause unimaginable calamity if unchecked.

Oleksandr Prokudin, Head of Kherson Oblast Military Administration, has said that the Russian invaders are preparing another chemical provocation to stop the Armed Forces of Ukraine and accuse Ukraine of environmental terrorism.


"According to the Resistance Forces, the Russians are preparing another provocation at a chemical plant in Armiansk in temporarily occupied Crimea. They have taken explosives to the Crimea TITAN plant and are mining the area.

A possible explosion will cause the release of thousands of tonnes of toxic substances into the atmosphere and lead to a deadly danger to people and the environment."

Prokudin said that in the event of a provocation, residents of Crimea and at least seven other regions of Ukraine, as well as Türkiye and the aggressor country itself, will suffer.

He posted a guide for the population with an algorithm of actions in the event of chemical hazards and added that the authorities are constantly monitoring this situation and are ready to respond promptly to all threats that may arise.

"Remain calm, do not succumb to Russian provocations and follow the announcements of the Oblast Military Administration," Prokudin summed up.

Russia does not, under any circumstances, want to do something that results in the deaths of Turkish citizens living in Istanbul. Right now Turkey is walking a very very fine line where they've sent supplies and aid to Ukraine as well as prevented Russia from being able to reinforce it's ships in the Black Sea, but also maintained a relationship with Russia that has been pretty critical to Russia maintaining any form of economy. Russia would love Turkey's support, and failing that they'll happily settle for Turkey doing exactly what it's doing now, but they won't do anything that forces Turkey to go hostile to them.

Are you suggesting what Russia is allegedly planning to do (the chemical explosion) is going to affect as far as Turkey

[The Stormbringer]

so it quite obviously wasn't a false flag the other day. Some of you gotta be more careful with the maga brain stuff.

Did Ukraine claim ownership of the drone attack in Moscow? Or the Russian separatists?

You didn't even read, or more likely were incapable of comprehending, what you yourself posted. You said that it would affect Turkey.

It was just a minor mishap, but on-topic to what you said:

I don't think the Kremlin would care if Turkey was caught in the crossfire of their militaristic agendas. Not only does Turkey provide aid to Ukraine as you said, along with severely impeding Russia at the Black Sea, Erdogan made a fool of Putin not too long ago on television - despite being no saint himself.

That's not a beneficial relationship to maintain for Russia.

Lmao.

Report:

While Russia has won Bahkmut, it's stated that at a generous estimate, they've lost 60k lives to do so.

Wagner is also indeed completely pulling out (per stated date) despite Prigozhin's supposed loyalty to Putin, leaving the question of how Russia will replenish their manpower to maintain a hold on Bahkmut.

Despite government mandates to ramp up equipment production, overall industrial output has decreased by 5% in Russia.

As it turns out, feeding your entire workforce to a meatgrinder leads to massive labor shortages. Weird.

[Evil Midnight Bomber]

It was in the article I cited extensively, which you conveniently left out.

Putin keeps drawing red lines and threatening the apocalypse jargon, but we've been steadily crossing each line as if to test him on "fuck around and find out". The greatest fear, again. is the West deems Putin completely unpredictable and doesn't know which line is it he'll deem before he fucking loses his shit. It can change entirely depending on his whim.

It's amazing how we are "not doing anything about Russia's War crimes" while at the same time "we keep provoking Putin"

[Iphie]

Lmao.

That country is insane...

[The Stormbringer]

That country is insane...

I mean, weren't there famously some people who would, in WW2 Britain, go out and steal from homes whenever the air raid sirens sounded and people were in shelters?

Perhaps, I honesty don't know, but that merely changes my statement to what the f--- is wrong with people?

Its not just the meatgrinder in itself, but that well over a million Russians of an age to be in the workforce has fled the country, many of them young and reasonably well educated. That sort of blow is not easily compensated for in the economy.

Russia has been an impoverished country ruled by iron-fisted despots and warlords since its inception.

It's not really that surprising a lot of its citizens are opportunistic scavengers that will steal if they can.

Very much so, alot of the "keep calm and carry on" and "blitz spirt" was propaganda.

Pretty much so, crime itself went up 57% during the blitz

I bet fires went up by 57%.

Heck there was even a serial killer that went out to kill during the air raid.
