CNN: Russia strikes Ukraine’s cities hours after Western countries pledge tanks to Kyiv
Ukraine has urged the West to get military hardware into the hands of its troops as quickly as possible, as Russia fired missiles toward Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities just hours after Germany and the US announced their plans to provide modern tanks to the country.
Russia launched 55 missiles at Ukraine on Thursday morning, Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said on Telegram. Shmyhal said the salvo was aimed at the country’s “energy facilities” and some power substations had been hit.
“The main targets were energy facilities to deprive Ukrainians of power and warmth,” Shmyhal said on Telegram. “The majority of missiles and drones were intercepted by our defenders. Unfortunately there were hits at substations. Nevertheless the situation in the power grid remains under control. Power engineers are doing everything to provide power supply.” Emergency power outages were introduced in the Kyiv region after the attack.

The U.S has more than enough of its own faults, as does about every other country on earth, including Ukraine, with its despicable history of corruption. But Russia is in a class by itself. May god damn Putin to hell where he belongs.
