Footage has emerged of a Russian TOS-1A thermobaric MLRS purportedly being blasted in the Bakhmut area of Ukraine, where there has been intense fighting over the Christmas period. 

The video, posted on Twitter and said to have been filmed a week ago, shows the weapon being raised from the tank before several rounds of rockets are fired.

  1. The Ukrainians should rename Bakhmut as Zelensky. That should tick off rasPUTIN.

  2. Saw the thermobaric rocket story in Daily Mail. They said it was a week ago. 7 days 6, days 4 days whatever. Enough time has passed to state the rocket attack did not really budge the line much.

    That is all Russia has without artillery Russia has jack shit. They are not fighting with brains or finesse. They are just using a sledge hammer until they run out of ammo.


    RASputin needs to be on trial for war crimes.
