Ammunition warehouses detonating after a UAV attack in Toropets, Tver region of Russia.
  • I was talking about the tactical nuke that might have been stored there. By the way, the locals in Toropets said that the explosion would be much bigger if another storage facility was hit. Perhaps they were talking about some deep storage with a nuke that remained intact. And this is probably the reason why the Ruscists now strictly forbid any publication of the aftermath.

    The explosion of the nuke in the storage is very different from the explosion of the intentionally exploded armed nuke. It may not even explode at all, but only spread radioactive material.

    But in this case, the radioactivity level did not increase, so evidently no nuke was hit.

  • The website for the independent Russian news agency, Astra, has been blocked in Russia for "false information of public importance".
  • Which words? If you mean Roskomnadzor, it's a typical example of the bureacratic newspeak, invented in Russia during the establishment of the Communist regime. It's meant to terrify.

    Otherwise Slavic languages have about as many consonants as French.

  • It were Ukrainians who initially populated this region, so it's no wonder that people there still preserve the Ukrainian accent. People from Donetsk and Luhansk puppet republics also speak with this Ukrainian accent.

    Russians join Ukrainian battalion to fight against their own country
  • The Siberian battalion consists mostly of people "from ethnic minorities from Russia's far east". Modern Russia is a huge quasi-empire, with Muscovy oppressing all the colonized nations and regions. Ukrainians, being formerly colonized, feel with all the oppressed nations and support their fight for freedom.

    That's why Ukrainians actively support the "Free Nations League" https://freenationsleague.org/ and this Siberian battalion. Imperialism is deeply ingrained in the flesh and bones of Muscovy, so Ukrainians are wary of it.

    Muscovy destroyed the democracies of the medieval republics: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novgorod_Republic https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pskov_Republic

    Ukrainians have way more in common with these democracies, which were the closest allies of the ancient Kyiv state, than with Muscovy, which has always sought to oppress and enslave Ukraine.

    Whatever Muscovy says, it will inevitably seek to oppress due to the law of "imperial boomerang" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_boomerang

    We can be true friends only with free people of independent nations.
