Russia launched Kh-55 missiles over Ukraine for the first time

December 1, 2022 by Text: Lyudmila Trotsenko

According to the Armed Forces, there may be several reasons why Russia started using these Soviet missiles.



The Russian invaders, during the massive shelling on October 31, used Kh-55 cruise missiles for the first time, which had not been released in Ukraine until now. Their fragments were discovered in two regions of Ukraine - in Lviv and Khmelnytskyi regions.
This was announced by the representative of the Central Military-Scientific Department of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel Mykola Danyliuk, during a briefing at the Military Media Center.

Who knows Arabic? This video was found on the phone of a murdered Russian. The book at the end of the video was used by Russians instead of toilet paper. What is this book ?

It is the holy Quran. The way they are talking with the arrogance in their voice I am not convinced that they don't know what is this book. "This is how we live" he says... I am not shocked.

Its the Quran.

Russians desecrated a holy book but its not the first time.

In Libya and Syria they operated with impunity. Where they desecrated mosques and scared books.

Then again its hard to convince most Muslims about Russia because of "muh Evil West".

The Russians also bombed a lot of Eastern Orthodox Churches in Ukraine.

Im not surprised in them engaging in such actions. If they bomb Eastern Orthodox Christians what makes people think they will respect Muslims.

We seen how the Russians treat Crimean Tatars.

Usa is considering wagner group a terrorist group.

Okay I support putting these bastards on the list.

But why has it taken this long?

When these guys operated in Ukraine before the Russians invaded also took part in the massacre of Ukrainian troops while their crimes in Libya, Syria and in other African countries are becoming more prominent.

You can pretty much see Ukraine's own expectations of the war.

Since you're talking about Kherson I heard that the amount of Ukrainian troops they had in the direction of kherson had to go to bakhmut which Russians dubbed the name of the place the meatgrinder. I wonder how Kherson is going to be later but Bakhmut seems to be very important for the Ukrainians.

You know I don't really care about all that, i am 110% sure if we transferred every user from defense hub and every user from Russia defense net forums to a random online forum some place with this thread you guys would be arguing 24/7 about who has the higher moral ground which I don't give a shit about. I am just posting current actions with visual evidence what is going on and who is currently taking what.

Ursula said 100k Ukrainians got killed.

Dont know how reliable that figure is.

But shows how both sides have accumulated massive casualties.

The fighting is so fierce its no surprise the high casualty rates.

I don't know if that's an accurate total, but it wouldn't surprise me if there were North of 150,000- 200,000 combined KIA and WIA, on each side.

This war will come down to 3 things...

1. What is the Russian public's appetite for loss of life? Are they willing to withstand another significant round of mobilization? Would 500,000 KIA and WIA be too much for them? I suspect that Ukraine is all in. They'd probably be willing to suffer 1 million WIA and KIA if that's what it takes to win. A sobering reality and significant question, for both sides.

2. What will give first? The West's desire to support Ukraine and defeat the Russian military for a generation, at the best discount they'll ever get? Or the Russian support of this "special military operation"? How much economic retraction, and induced hardship will Russians withstand before they start pressuring their politicians for a resolution?

3. Who can out supply who? Who can train troops faster / better? The Ukrainians, who will be training troops largely outside of Ukraine throughout 2023, or the Russians, who are strictly training their troops inside Russia? Who runs out / low on artillery shells and long range strike capability first? The West is ramping up production in Europe and the United States, while Russia is ramping up internally and getting help from the likes of North Korea. Who will run out of tanks, IFVs, etc that they are willing to lose, first? Will Ukraine get the continued support they require and constant infusions of modern equipment, or will the West stop supplying equipment when they've exhausted their obsolete stockpiles in storage and refuse to send their modern equipment into battle? Will the Russians chew through the remainder of their modern equipment fast enough that they're deeply out gunned and the technological edge favours Ukraine too deeply? How about the battle between Russian cruise missile strikes and the bolstering of Ukrainian air defense. What gives first? Does the West provide Ukraine with enough systems and enough missiles to intercept the large majority of the inventory Russia has left, or are the Russians able to missile strike Ukraine into submission before the air defense can be built up enough that it becomes too much to overcome?

Those are the three major questions in the short term. The Americans are likely going to spend another $37 billion on military aid for Ukraine in 2023. They'll probably spend close to that between humanitarian aid and propping up the Ukrainian Government next year as well. If the the other 30'ish countries make similar ratios of contributions next year, Ukraine is likely to see North of $50 Billion in military aid, and more than $5 billion per month in financial / humanitarian aid.

Can Russia match that moving forward into 2023? Or does the collective foreign support for Ukraine simply become too much to overcome?

Bakhmut is not only important to Ukraine but also Russia
Bakhmut can be a bridgehead for Ukraine to initiate new offensive operations as well as destroying all the Russian supply routes in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions and the same is for Russia. Having Bakhmut under Russia means that the offensive within the region is pretty much gonna fall into Russian hands since Bakhmut is like a fortress


Bakhmut is like the heart of Luhansk by now; you lose it and it will be very difficult to win the region back
