"UKRAINE has obliterated one of Vladimir Putin's prized Black Sea submarines in an impressive attack on occupied Crimea.
Kyiv forces said the prized Kilo-class Rostov-on-Don submarine, worth £275 million, was hit in a strike on the Sevastopol port."
"Ukraine's attack on Friday also “significantly damaged” four of Putin’s ultramodern S-400 air defence systems - worth in total around £2 billion.
Kyiv claimed the missile barrage also targeted four vital launches of Russia's "Triumf" air defence system.
The Kilo-class Rostov submarine - used to fire calibre class missiles on Ukraine - had been hit in September 2023, but was then repaired.
Dramatic pictures showed the gaping hole ripped into its side after a barrage of Storm Shadow missiles bypassed air defence systems to blast naval docks in Sevastopol.

What points? Can you be more specific?
Russia doesn't need conscripts, they have enough willing volunteers. It's Ukraine that is using press gangs to conscript men, the current average age is 47. They have even asked countries to extradite refugees back to fight
When you say willing volunteers, he concentrates on poor regions and people desperate for money sign up. These people usually have no training or expeience and are cannon fodder. The Chechen volunteers had both and were well equipped but these "volunteers" from elsewhere are very poor quality
Putin clamps down on anybody who speaks up, if he can't hush them he kills them. Navalny may be down as a natural death but his mistreatment had a detrimental effec on him and weakened him, he went through a lot menatlly and physically.
Ukraine needs everybody, Russia has a far bigger population, more than 3 times the size of Ukraine and yet they make very slow progress.

Volunteers are volunteers, regardless of where they come from, it's the same in all armies including ours.
Russia has 48 opposition parties. They had a high turnout st the recent election with overwhelming support for Putin. Russian arrested 400 for social media comments one year while we arrested 3,300 with half their population. We have censored Russian media , and steal assets from many simply because they happen to be Russian
Navalny was a known drug addict with severe health problem
Yes, Russia has more resources than thd Ukraine, just as we had over Iraq and Afghanistan

Where's the proof that "Navalny was a known drug addict"??
... And how was Navalny's health, before he was poisened in 2020 ??
Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎

Total nonsense! I'm about to school you . You can't mine something that is 1200 miles long. It's not a static front line either it's moving all the time. So your point is nonsense.
The Russian space programmer is very advanced. Until recently, they were the only nation that could ferry astronauts to the international space station
They have 220 satellites at the moment, the even managed to disable Elon Musks starlink system
The Ukranian air force is non existent, it's why they have been begging for f16s. I believe the Netherlands have just given them some useless ones
The Reason Russia has evacuated civilians, which any country would do under the circumstances , is because the Ukraine is shelling civilian areas. They als mired missiles at the Nuclear power station, but fortunately Russia shot them down
Lesson for today ended.I hope you learned something, but I doubt it

You utter bellwhiff.
It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring. - Carl Sagan
It is the Russians who have targeted civilians targets, hospitals, schools, supermarkets, housing in Ukraine. So far 11,520 Ukrainian civilians have been killed including 633 children. 23640 Ukrainians have been injured including 1551 children. Clearly Russia is targeting civilians. The Russians claims it Missiles, drones and bombings are precision weapons only targeting military targets. They are either targeting civilians or their missiles are very inaccurate.
There have been very few reports of civilians being killed in Russia by Ukrainian forces.
After two weeks of the Ukrainian Special operations in Russia they continue to gain territory with little opposition from the poorly trained Russian army in the area. Russia still has not mounted a serious counter attack
A key Russian bridge has been destroyed by what is believed to be a HIMARS strike
Ukraine used missiles to down key bridges inside Russia today to thwart Vladimir Putin's war supply lines.
Pictures show the result of a HIMARS missile strike over the Seim River in the Kursk region, which Kyiv's forces partially occupy.
It is the latest blow to Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin.
Used BMW 3.2 Litre For Sale - Pay The Right Price - Search Now www.autotrader.co.uk/BMW/3-2-Litre Used BMW 3.2 Litre For Sale - Pay The Right Price - Search Now Ad The bridge in Glushkovsky district was blown apart in a second strike, after the first attempt holed the structure but left it intact. A mass evacuation was being carried out in Glushkov district, home to around 20,000 people.
The downed bridge now prevents Putin from transferring personnel and supplying reinforcements to his troops at the frontline, now inside Russia.
Reports indicate this is not the only bridge to be destroyed. The destruction of the bridge is set to make resupply and evacuations harder. A frantic post from a pro-war channel said: "Part of the Glushkovsky district is now cut off. This is Tyotkino, Popovo-Lezhachi, Volfino and about 27 more settlements.
"The civilian population can now only be evacuated by water.
"The enemy is also hitting the bridge in the village of Zvannoye in the Glushkovsky district.
The destroyed bridge is some 13 miles inside Russia from the border.
It is yet another humiliation for Putin who has shown himself unable to control his own territory while trying to swallow neighbour Ukraine

A great read, but that's all it is.
You are so easy, perhaps your own Ministry of (in this case non) defence could enlighten you.
Russia's foreign ministry claims Ukraine used Western rockets to destroy a bridge over the Seym river in the Kursk region.
Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said it was the first time the region had been hit by "Western-made rocket launchers".
The launcher in question was "probably American HIMARS", she said.
"As a result of the attack on the bridge over the Seym River in the Glushkovo district, it was completely destroyed, and volunteers who were assisting the evacuated civilian population were killed

Amnesty are run in the uk by two people who failed to get in to the police.
Amnesty International seems to have become more overtly political in recent years, expanding its original remit. The women in the AI vest applauding Ricky Jones as he called for throats to be cut illustrates what I mean.

Amnesty, Stop the War, CND and the like have been following the Moscow line for decades. Old habits are hard to break.
Bought and paid for shills who should all be on some sort of watchlist.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

The British arny desnt offer cash incentives for people to sign up, the pay is the pay.
Russia has very little genuine oppositin now, Putin has either jailed them, killed them or they have left. You recently claimed Navalny wasn't the main opposition,
PPS, there are SEVEN oppo parties in the state Dumas and NINEin the regional parliaments. Putin has "cancelled" most f the oppo. People who may have been gebuine opposition to Putin, well old Vlad just stopped them standing,

Reports suggest Putin will not go out without that last response available to him .

A recent significant development is that most of the bridges over the wide Seym River, used to supply Russian forces south of the river have been damaged. This means that a large area of Russian occupied territory to the west of the existing incursion salient has become vulnerable, and that the forces there can only evacuate by water. Russian military bloggers are predicting that Ukraine is likely to take this area in the next few days. If that happens the UAF will have a strong line of defence along a river that is difficult to span with temporary crossings.

They have destroyed one, but the Russians have already built a pontoon as a crossing
