MOSCOW, June 23 — Russia said today that the United States was responsible for a Ukrainian attack on the Russian-annexed Crimean peninsula with five US-supplied missiles that killed at least five people including three children and injured 124 more.
The Russian Defence Ministry said four of the US-delivered Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missiles, equipped with cluster warheads, were shot down by air defence systems and the ammunition of a fifth had detonated in mid-air.
The ministry said US specialists had set the missiles' flight coordinates on the basis of information from US spy satellites, meaning Washington was directly responsible.
"Responsibility for the deliberate missile attack on the civilians of Sevastopol is borne above all by Washington, which supplied these weapons to Ukraine, and by the Kyiv regime, from whose territory this strike was carried out," the ministry said.
The United States began supplying Ukraine with longer range ATACMS missiles, which have a 300-km range, earlier this year.
Reuters was unable to immediately verify battlefield reports from either side.
Television footage on Russian state television showed people running from a beach and some people being carried off on sun loungers.
Russian-installed authorities in Crimea said missile fragments had fallen just after noon near a beach on the north side of the city of Sevastopol where locals were holidaying.
At least 124 were injured, Russian Health Minister Mikhail Murashko said. The injured included 27 children, five of whom are in a serious condition, authorities said.
Russia vows response
Russia will respond to today's attack, the Defence Ministry said, without elaborating. The Kremlin said President Vladimir Putin has been "in constant contact with the military" since the attack on Sevastopol.
Neither Ukraine nor the United States has commented on the attack, which came on a day when Ukraine said one person had been killed and 10 others wounded by Russian strikes on the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.
Russia annexed Crimea in 2014 and now views the Black Sea peninsula it as an integral part of its territory, though most of the world considers it still as part of Ukraine.
Putin has repeatedly accused the US of using Ukraine to undermine Russia's own security - something Kyiv and its Western allies deny - and has warned of growing risks of a direct confrontation between Moscow and the US-led Nato alliance.
Putin sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine on February 24, 2022, in what he cast as a defensive move against a hostile and aggressive West. Ukraine and the West say Russia is waging an imperial-style war of aggression and a land grab. — Reuters

Russia has conducted multiple deadly attacks against Ukrainian civilians for over 2 1/2 years since Feb 24 2022, so this crybaby is hypocritical Russian Kerbau.
ReplyDelete2nd, Crimea is a contested war zone. So Russian civilians holidaying in Crimea basically signed their own suicide note.
Mfer, the KEY POINT is US involvement!
DeleteLearn to separate the chaff from the wheat before commenting. Why did this mess started in the first place?
ReplyDeleteAs far as I am concerned, this mess changed from a low-intensity conflict in Donbass into a massive , deadly war when Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb 24 ,2024.
ReplyDeletePutin made a bet , a seriously mistaken bet that he could achieve his maximal objectives of Regime change in 2 weeks. But he failed miserably..... so here we are in a war of attrition.
Wakakakakaka…
Delete"Putin made a bet , a seriously mistaken bet"
Wow… such an inconsequential insight of fart!
Putin's bet is to PRESERVE the Russia sovereignty going the way of SU!
ReplyDeleteAs you were saying...

BREAKING: A massive explosion has rocked Odessa. The fire and plume is one of the largest I've seen. Russia must have struck the ATACMS warehouse.
When one really think about it, it is not joke. Come on man, just like, 2 kids died three adults too, and many injured from the splinter while enjoying on the beach on a day out with family. Some raised a fist saying it is justified for what the RU had done to the Ukrainians.
ReplyDeleteHow can anyone say it is a movie?
Anyone familiar with WWE pay-per-view main event, there are scripted altercation, but it did not stop the two wrestlers having a go at each other to the fullest of no hold barred, bloodied, sledgehammer, table, chairs and so on, all until one tap out or submitted.
It had been warned, scripted or otherwise, that this is not a game. People died. There will be casualty of war.
Condolence to those suffering losses. Future generation will remember the sacrifice made of those today.
Until the total victory against such monster, hold the line.

The Deep State Archipelago is a Devolution Proof:
While Joe Biden was wandering around like a dementia patient at the G-7 meeting, his supposed allies in the Globalist Regime were attempting to wring more out of him than the typical meandering sound bites reserved for his corporate media handlers, specifically regarding commitments to Ukraine funding and overall support for the NATO bloc.
That is encouraging in and of itself, as it’s further evidence that formerly-connected nodes within the Deep State’s matrix have been cut off from their former communications and control structures.
The fact that EU ‘Allies’ are taking Biden to task for not holding up his end of the bargain implies that the net effects of a regime candidate ‘winning’ the 2020 election have not come to pass.
Now why would that be?
We’ve been told we’re watching a movie. We've believed it. Now, they're starting to.
We’ve also been told we’re going to like how this movie ends.
Do you think they feel the same way?
Let's see if the "game stop" here...this week is one of the date marker. If you post from msm, then it is a big one...

As expected, the Biden regime have
quietly denied any involvement in the attack on Sevastopol.
Pentagon spokesperson, Charlie Dietz, this morning:
“Ukraine makes its own targeting decisions and conducts its own military operations.”
We just supply them with all the weapons, training, intelligence, and funding. They want you to believe that the financiers of this war have absolutely zero influence on the decision making process.
If you believe this, I have a couple bridges to sell you.
https://t.me/bioclandestine/3495
⚠️Update⚠️
Russian UN Ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia, delivers statement on the Sevastopol attack.
Direct US involvement in this attack is “beyond any doubt”.
“Washington and its allies encourage their Neo-Nazi puppets in Kyiv to commit terrorist attacks against civilians”.
Whether you believe Russia’s allegations of US involvement or not, the reality is, global tensions between nuclear superpowers have never been higher. We are the closest we have been to nuclear war since 1962.

MASSIVE NEWS!
Julian Assange reaches plea deal with US DOJ, will NOT be extradited to the US, and has been granted “time served”, after spending the last 5 years in a British prison.
Assange is free!
Does he pick up where he left off?
Why would the Biden DOJ allow this?🤔
https://t.me/bioclandestine/3497
Assange is airborne!
He departed London, and is on his way to see his wife and kids!
I don’t want to get ahead of my skis, but if Assange gets back in the Information War, we might have just got our most valuable solider back.
Deep State panic inbound.
There are more interesting nuggets in the trailing comments to the post.
ReplyDeleteNot exactly new stuffs from the overview context, maybe the intensity and more forthcoming info release...
Question would be, would msm report on it?

🦠☣️Ukraine Bio Update☣️ðŸ¦
New report from Russian MIL, alleging that the Pentagon relocated their bioweapon operation to Africa, due to Russia’s liberation of the labs in Ukraine.
Kirillov alleges that Biden-owned Metabiota, and other intermediary NGOs, are running cover for the US State Dept and DoD, posing as a humanitarian operation, to conceal their true objective of pathogen production for Big Pharma.
Kirillov also points out that Biden-owned Metabiota, have been forced to stop operating in many countries in Africa, due to awareness of their nefarious biological activity and agenda.
Also keep in mind, the founder of Biden-owned Metabiota is Ghislaine Maxwell and Clinton affiliate, Virologist Nathan Wolfe.
Later in the briefing, Kirillov also alleges the US are planning to spread disease via migratory birds. This comes after Kirillov previously alleged that the US plan to manufacture ANOTHER pandemic for the 2024 election like they did in 2020. Bird Flu comes to mind.
