What I see is a fully intact runway. I see military hangers/ fuel depots attacked but not the key infrastructure as Putin wants his generals to use the landing fields.
ReplyDeleteOnly Ukraine will use them instead. Moscow has moved its fighter wing to Belarus to try and replenish the aircraft that it has lost contesting the sky's of Ukraine. The revolutionary modernized Russian military machine is turning out to be a paper Tiger that lets men, women and children be murdered for a false narrative and a fake Cause. You argued Merkel would have talked him down. Perhaps, he was smarter than that and was waiting for Merkel to leave to try and expose a weak Germany and use his energy reserves to steal Ukraine.
Photo looks like imprecise targeting. Ramps with planes were not hit. Looks like Russia lobbed misses in the general direction of the air base.
