There is an ongoing debate about what kind of weapons Ukraine has received, ATACMS, maybe PrSM ? Based on a video where a HIMARS is seen with a square cover in a highway near Dnipro:

And comments made from Arestovich:

What is clear to me is you might sabotage a military building with SOFs but ¿3 or 4 in a week?. Range should be close now to Kerch bridge....

Edit: Fire next to Sochi airport as a welcome to Putin:

In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. The economy was in decline, the shops were empty. Then delays with salaries began, workers were fired from state farms. The birth rate has fallen sharply, crime, alcoholism and mortality have risen. Russia then lost several million people. More intellectually developed massively moved to Israel, the USA, Western Europe.
Since then, Russians have been allergic to Western democratic values. The Russians had the "Weimar Syndrome" of the death of a great power. "Weimar Syndrome" is a common term. Mass revanchist mood in the former Empire, which did not accept its defeat, did not recognize its moral justice, historical inevitability. Putin took full advantage of this phenomenon, promising to revive the great power. To do this, he eliminated (fired, secretly killed) hundreds of independent journalists, statesmen of the opposition. On television, they began to promote the great past of the state, the sins of the United States in Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, the victory over Germany in the Second World War was praised in every possible way.
A cult of Stalin arose in Russia as the savior of the fatherland, the conqueror of Germany. Stalin became a god for millions of Russians, he ousted Christ.

Tsardom of Russia, Russian Empire and the Soviet Union are dead and have collapsed.

But still Russia retained lots of its conquests in Central Asia, Eastern Europe and Siberia.

While most empires have lost all their territorial holdings funny how the Russians still feel like they got defeated or live with that feel in defeat.

While us Turks are still stuck in small Anatolia and lost all of our territory.

Look at the oil we lost 🤬

Russia is the biggest country on this planet. Even if they lost a lot of territory but they still retained their land mass of an empire.

Russia is the main reason for the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. They have shed the blood of millions of Turks. They are still ruling them. Yet we are waiting eagerly to serve them in our hotels. Such a pity.

Commendable accomplishment by the Ukrainians integrating HARM with Mig 29.

I wonder how many more NATO munitions will be integrated after this too, now that this has been proven.

Ukrainian MiG-29s Are Firing AGM-88 Anti-Radiation Missiles

The Pentagon has now confirmed sending AGM-88 missiles to Ukraine and that they have been integrated onto the country's MiG-29s.

Soldiers of PMC Wagner spoke about the battles in Ukraine with the elite units of the Ukrainian army near Bakhmut. And the situation with the wounded and dead of the Ukrainian army. (video with subtitles)



Episode of the battle in Ukraine. Paratrooper units on BMD-4M airborne combat vehicles seized an advantageous line and ambushed a Ukrainian reconnaissance group. Then, with the help of the BMD-4M, a column of armored vehicles of Ukraine was attacked near the forest belt, which was moving towards the positions of the airborne units. Armament of the BMD-4M: 100 mm rifled gun 2A70, four ATGM "Arkan", 30 mm gun 2A72 and 7.62 mm PKTM machine gun.

If I'm not wrong "the factory" seems old and with no "recent" maintenance, in fact from Google Maps, it seems an abandoned place, also on video.
News says it is used to dismantle old weapons which makes sense:
"...while trying to take photographs of the Gramsh factory, which is used for dismantling derelict weapons, the ministry said in a statement."

Really strange, at first I thought they were trying to sabotage the plant as Bulgarian and Czechs ones... but what were those guys doing there?

Could be a false flag operation in Kosovo to take some attention away from Ukraine.
Then flatten Ukraine with missiles.
Who knows.
