Yandex' imagery of the place has the same resolution, though taken in the summer.
Anyway, what does it matter?
Suspect the intent is to encourage attacks.
It doesn’t in reality , they wont show anything the Americans can’t see anyway, but it would be a political and dickish move from another private enterprise enslaved to the CIA. They usually honour countries that request sensitive sites to be blurred. I myself copied it from a tg group so take what you will from it.
The result will be Russian sources stop blurring western locations like Israel or US or UK or whatever... just further proof if any was needed as to who controls what and their interests at the moment.
Damn, already the third time I can not gowith my son... 2 times due to COVID and this year Russia declared my country as unfriendly state
With no accountability for western politicians and leaders they have no reason to do what is right for the people in their countries... they just do as they are told which is almost never in their countries interests... but it is the same for all political parties because the US has dirt on everyone, that is why their spy agencies are so massive... they watch allies and know where the bodies are buried so they can control them and make them do things that are against public opinion in their own countries.
Novorosinform REPORTED:Military Aid From #Europe is Destroyed,The Former Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada announced that an arsenal of Weapons and ammunition Delivered By the West to #Ukraine was destroyed by #Russian Missile strikes last night at the #Lviv Railstation.
What a lucky turn of events....
They are in the middle of a war and they waste time with theatrics
Get some military academy cadets to prance around in Moscow and send those 11k grunts an 77 aircraft to help out in Ukraine
They don't need extra men... they are not short of men, what they need is time.
And there should always be time to celebrate the destruction of the Nazis during WWII... they paid a heavy price then and they think that was worth it too, this time around the price is tiny in comparison but it is still a heavy price to pay for shit that should not still be a problem.
Sadly there is evil in the world and they create and promote such things... part of this operation will kill nazis, but the political portion is essentially breaking Russia away from the west which means cutting ties with nazi lovers which is just as important if not more so.
So the question now presents itself. Instead of a Eurasian Union... what about a New Soviet Union?
After all, if not for crooked alcoholic Yeltsin and halfwits like Kuchma, the Soviet Union would have survived... just with free market politicals and a myriad of political parties.
Russia was probably the biggest loser in the Soviet Union setup... it was the worst colonial power because its colonies tended to have a much better standard of living compared with most in Russia. But they still complained of course.
Russia does not need to expand, just good trade relations with the south and east of Ukraine and everything will be fine.
Personally I'm not particularly fond of the "parade cult". IMO they should just hold it every 5 years or so, ie on the 80th anniversary next. Other years, mark May 9th with a more solemn ceremony, but do keep the "immortal regiment" march annual.
Remembering a war where they lost 30 million people is hardly a parade cult... perhaps if the west also remembered WWII properly it wouldn't be getting a partial repeat right now... more respect for the horror of war and they wouldn't be so keen to start them.
Frankly, that's just kind of silly. It's not exactly rocket science, and there are plenty of domestic manufacturers of piston engines in other weight/power classes already. They should have been tasked with this many years ago.
Of course, going for readily available off-the-shelf stuff is far quicker and more cost effective than to develop and produce an entierly new product at all times, that goes without saying.
But for important weapons systems, in a country like Russia that must have expected more and more sanctions coming over the past 8 years (as they have), come on.
They are building new factories to make UCAVs and still you complain... there are likely a few different engine types they could use from motor bike engines and other types as well.... making thousands of Orions would make little sense if they don't have the crews to operate them.
That's absolutely treasonous.
Why?
How many do you think they could possibly use at one time?
5) The U.S. official says the United States has no evidence that the sunken Russian warship had nuclear weapons when it went down. (contrary to Twitter gossip)
As far as I know by non verbal agreement both the Russians and US stopped taking nuclear armed weapons on their ships and subs (except obviously SSBNs and their SLBMs).
This is like a WW2 torpedo bomber destroying a modern ship.
If a modern warship didn't realise what that torpedo bomber was most modern western ships would be very vulnerable to torpedo attack.
By the time it launched its attack you could shoot it down easily enough but those torpedoes could still hit you.
BTW if a drone took out half of its radar capacity then that would explain the explosion and fire... if two Uran missiles hit it there would have been rather more devastation.
the US will get Pakistan fully in its orbit, but India and its 1.5 billion consumers are probably going to side with their traditional trading partner as will China. That is two very large markets and I just don't think Biden has enough to offer as a carrot and the stick won't work
I just hope the US throws its weight like it normally does in that special arrogant way only they can to make India realise that China isn't their enemy... their enemy is the west led by the US.
It's not about being Russia's friend, it's about strategy. You want to try and split the US and its allies as a bloc, and the less are engaged in simultaneous hostilities with, the better.
Agree but spliting the US and Zion is unlikely.... easier to split the US from the EU and probably more productive...
Conversely the other 85% are not part of the bloc, or maintain dependence on it for the security of their regimes - countries like Pakistan, Columbia, Georgia and so on. These are states that can be relied upon to resist any pressure from the West to control their affairs, rebel against them outright, or in the case of dependent regimes - have strong grassroots opposition movements.
Exactly... what you are talking about in western terms is the first world (the west), the second world (Russia and China and other communist states like Vietnam and Cuba and North Korea) and the third world (anyone else not in those two groups). Russia and China and India will never be allowed to join the west and the third world is also banned from joining the west, and the west is fixated with what they admit is containment and isolation of second and third world countries preventing them joining the first world of comfort and leisure. Problem for them is that the second world is going to develop and grow with the third world and pretty soon they might reach levels where joining the western world would be a step down for them... many will claim the west has all the money but it is fake money based on nothing but printing presses in the US and when countries stop trading in US dollars or Euros and stop accepting them their value will drop to nothing and they wont be rich any more.
Conversely there is nothing stopping Africa from becoming as wealthy as Europe... Asia is already developing fast and central and south america can all develop and grow too and Russia and China and India can join in that development and growth too so everyone wins... except the bitter and twisted west who has gone home and taken their ball but everyone else just made their own balls and are playing together now.
Memorial to what? Incompetence?
Smartest thing to do now is to drop pile of depth charges on the wreckage and forget that the whole sorry thing ever existed
They could refloat it and recover any dead on board and then move it to a suitable place near Sevastopol away from sea traffic and sink her as a memorial to this stupid war the US created for Russia and Ukraine. Divers could visit the wreck and remember what the Americans are.
Holding an AK-74 set to full auto like that... Though I guess he's okay because the mag is wrongly fitted too (rear release latch engaged but the forward hook isn't, he inserted it the wrong way...
You can also see the hammer is forward, it is visible in that image...
Also the Ukrainians would absolutely post drone camera footage of them targeting the Moskva if they did.
Also the key problem I have with such a story.
But then they love to pretend drones are more capable than they actually are... look at the BS regarding Turkish drones in Syria and NK and in Ukraine...
Man that Kh-29 doesn't waste any time getting started
It is a rocket powered 300kg HE warhead bomb... Maverick is like 50 kgs, so 6 Mavericks on target at once. A Kh-25ML is about 90kg HE so about three Kh-25s... very potent... often used against very heavy structures like the foundations of heavy bridges or bunkers.
