Saw that a few times today. I was hoping that there might be some video evidence, but it sounds like it occurred well off shore.Su35 downed by Ukraine AD over black sea.
So when will Zelensky proactively condemn war in Myanmar, Sudan, Palestine or Africa ?
When was the last time anyone heard one from him ? Anyone?
Zelensky shames Arab leaders
Some Arab leaders are ignoring Russia’s “illegal” conduct in Ukraine, President Vladimir Zelensky said at the Arab League summitwww.globalvillagespace.com
“Unfortunately, there are some in the world and here, among you, who turn a blind eye to [prisoner of war] cages and illegal annexations,” the president said. “I am here so that everyone can take an honest look. No matter how hard the Russians try to influence [others], there must still be independence.”
please deh ah, your question more suitable for leaders who don't have occupation issue like Zelensky had. the point of your question...........So when will Zelensky proactively condemn war in Myanmar, Sudan, Palestine or Africa ?

I'm completely aware that Ukraine is suffering immensely in this war and that they are losing tons of men, resources and equipment. That isn't lost on me at all. I'm also fully aware that Western propaganda and Russian propaganda are clashing in extreme fashion.
But time and resources are on Ukraine's side, not Russia's. Ukraine is fully invested in this war and has millions of men to draw from for combat. In order for Russia to replicate that, they eould need full, general mobilization, something that their country has no stomach for right now. It's incredibly difficult to advance against a foe with similar capabilities. If you think for a second that Russia hasn't suffered thousands of WIA and KIA in their advance of Bakhmut, I can't help you. Historically, assaulting forces expect about a 3-to-1 attrition rate when on the offensive. You can assume that for every 1000 soldiers lost around Bakhmut that Russia lost about 3000. That's just how war works. That has nothing to with bias.
As for your claim that The Patriot Battery in Kyiv was destroyed, I'd ask you for some evidence? What did the missile hit? Did it destroy the system's radar? Did it destroy multiple launchers, located KMs apart? You have to provide me with something technical and evidence based. Watching a missile hit something, from afar, tells us nothing. The system could have easily had a component damaged, without the system being destroyed entirely. Unless you're going to tell me that 1 non-nuclear missile took out the multiple launch batteries located all over the city.
I'm happy to have a military conversation with you if you'd like. I'm not operating under any delusion that Ukraine isn't experiencing substantial attrition as well. The problem for Russia is that there is a 50+ country coalition backing Ukraine, with the explicit goal of seeing Russia lose. Meanwhile, Russian support is from some 3rd world countries that can barely offer Russia any capability that they don't already have. Russia is largely fighting this war like it's 1945.
As for the idea that Russia was going to run out of missiles, who said that? Journalists? Ukraine?... I never once heard the American Government, the British Government or the German Government say anything of the sort. Listen to official sources that are involved in the war, not random news outlets that have no idea of Russia's actual stockpile. This is what we do know about missiles though. Russia is getting low on their best ones. How do we know? Because they've significantly reduced the number of accurate Caliber and Iskander cruise missiles it uses, and is forced to use old KH series missiles and S300 missiles (in ground attack mode). Russia is losing territory in the grand scheme of things, all while their volleys of missiles continue to be less effective and numerous. That smells deeply of a country that is running out of time to make substantial gains, as their key resources dwindle.
Lastly, this is how you know the war isn't going well for Russia. Over the last year, they've lost exponentially more land than they've gained, all while exhausting extensive resources and manpower and replacing it with terribly trained soldiers (by all accounts) and Soviet era armored vehicles that are getting increasingly shitty in quality. They're actively sending T-62 MBTs to the front lines to plug the holes left by the destruction of hundreds of their best tanks.
Happy to engage in any kind of conversation you want to have!
Ukraine has a lot of manpower and so does Russia.
Ukraine has the advantage of having an endless supply of ammo, weapons, equipment tho, that might prove to be crucial in the end.
I checked this map, nothing seems particularly off. The data show similar pattern, the only high measurement from 18th of May from Lefkose.
