BBC: Ukraine launches missile attack on Crimea
Russia says Ukraine has launched 10 missiles and three unmanned boats in an attack on the home of its Black Sea fleet in Crimea.
The attack caused a large fire at a Sevastopol shipyard which left 24 people injured, Russia said.
Moscow-installed governor Mikhail Razvozhayev claimed most of the weapons were intercepted but that two ships had been damaged.
Ukraine has strongly implied western-supplied cruise missiles were used.
Unmanned vessels, known by many different names including sea drones and drone boats, operate on or below the water.
They usually have built-in explosives and cameras that feed directly back to the person controlling them.

WNU Editor: This attack happened on the same day that Putin was meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. I agree with the Military Summary Channel analysis (link here) that the West is sending a message to Russia that their alignment with North Korea will result with the West sending even more longer range missiles to Ukraine.
Update: There are numerous reports in the British press that British Long Range Shadow Missiles were used .... Russian submarine hit by British Storm Shadow missile strike (The Independent).

Kiev uses British missiles Storm Shadow to attack Sevastopol shipyard — Sky News (TASS).

If this keeps up the diplapidated British Navy run by Labour will be able to beat the Russian Navy.
Queue Medvedev rattling the nuclear saber.
Britain has nukes too. Littleboy will whine that Britain is very small while Russia is very large, so a nuclear exchange favors it.
No how much of that large, large Russian land is taiga? Can't support a lot of people on it. you can assuming you can expert oil and import food. Otherwise, we are talking about high density reindeer herding.
An attack even fazman would like!
You would think that Balaklava would have been reactivated and that everything that doesn't fit in Balaklava would be moved to Novorossiysk by this time.

All hail FazMan!
Your right, Russia should just lay back and open its borders, accept and force diversity, equity and inclusion, pay American blacks reparations for the slavery that only white people partook in throughout history, and neuter their children when they wake up feeling like a different sex one morning. How dare Russia resist this awesomeness creeping up to its borders
But but ..the war ended 2 weeks ago because uikraine was spent..
Its all good, he's choking on his words again..
Fazman is The Man
but why at the name site is the F lower case?

Your favorite Russian Troll here.
Gee skods, this gets tiring.
This is what you wrote

You are missing the concept. It is not me celebrating how many russians will survive. IF Any.
What I pointed out is, that given the comparable target areas, in comparison
a. the British will probably be eliminated as a race. Complete annihilation.
The Russians, when hit with the same amount of ordnance have a better chance to survive because they are more spread out and less interconnected.
It is simple common sense.
You believe in common sense don't you?
If you do not, Tell me this:
each country gets hit with 100 , 2 megaton H-Bombs.
How are the losses going to be equal if the Target area is more compact In Britain?
Make jokes all you want. Your lack of perspective and knowledge of Nuclear operations in this matter is concerning.
BTW when the dust settles....there will be no deer to herd.
Have a great day.
The Pr. 775 "Minsk" landing ship, which was hit during the attack on the Sevastopol Shipyard, suffered serious damage on the superstructure. The aftermath of a heavy fire is also visible.
Given the ship's age and level of damage - it is likely beyond economic repair.
Irrelevant , because the British response will be followed by a wave of u.s nukes. Anyway enough nonsense about nukes.it ain't happening and we all know that
Lower profile, to avoid his radar lol
An anti Russian wokie has a Hardon today
And you are sobbing into your pillow
fazman this is what you said.
because the British response will be followed by a wave of u.s nukes. Anyway enough nonsense about nukes.it ain't happening and we all know that
a. Yes a response will happen and , the strikes will be a full launch., But you avoid the premise that cannot be denied. After the launch, there may be some people left in the USA and Russia.
But Britain....they will be gone.
Nukes aint happening? Well I am sooooo glad you can see the future and be so sure and gamble with other people's lives...
You must be a progressive liberal NEOCON. A true devotee of: Hillary, Wolfritz, Frumn , Kritsol, Applebaum and Cheney. Never met a war you didn't like eh? Just as long as it does not touch you that is.
But on second thought???!!!
This sucks!!! EEGads!!!!
According to the "Fazman Rule". Nuclear War is now assured.
I best go buy tickets to Patagonia or South Africa and start digging a bunker.
Lmfao..you've been wrong again..looks like ukraine isn't spent and the war goes on. MAD doctrine applies yawn
