The Ukrainian military attacked warehouses with saltpeter located in the village of Novaya Kakhovka in the Kherson region which is under control of the Russian military. The strike resulted in large explosions. Victims were reported.
The strike on Novaya Kakhovka was carried out by American HIMARS MLRS missiles.
According to the head of the local military-civil administration, civilian facilities were damaged. The number of victims was not revealed.
“As a result of the AFU strike on Novaya Kakhovka, warehouses with mineral fertilizers and saltpeter exploded, explosions continue. There are victims, a hospital, a market and residential buildings were damaged, windows were blown out within a radius of two kilometers,” the official said.
20 big russian ammo depots destroyed in last 10 days by himars. Russia is done and there is nothing they can do. Go home russian child rapists or u will all die.
Still holding to those fake victories? You are as dumb as your meaningless comments. Must be hard to be in agony all day long because the Nazi regime you cheering for is loosing on every front. Serves you right.
cope harder russian bot ^^
topGun = ivan
Enjoy freezing this winter dipshit.
We can lover Our levels. Its worse for them which has a very low level.
brutal, russian invaders like to die like rats
,,,,As a result of the HIMARS fire attack near Shakhtarsk, all deputy commanders of the 106th Airborne Division of the Russian Federation died except for one (call sign “Badger”, he is in serious condition).” ”

That’s a fake Ze fag NATO terrorist shit concocted propaganda. Meanwhile first chechens enters Seversk city and start mop out the fascist trash hard. I must say more early than I expected. The fucking hoholist ameriscum whores are in disarray and desert in hundreds.

I see no fake in this. Its stalemate borders there with a tiny push for the Ukras. They now do attack Kerson a littlere her and there.
Its a very good reminder.
No fertilizer
Denazification and demilitarization can only be achieve by no other means than eliminating Volodymyr Zelensky from the equation that would soon convince the entire AFU to capitulate and therefore effectively ending the war.
How xoxols say – masters are fighting, but we are dying.
Masters are fighting — the forelocks are cracking. Forelock is hohol.
Commentators on this forum needs to be objective. Russia is done. It’s not about territorial gain the way Russia is thinking. It’s about engaging Russia in a prolonged war that will degrade their military and economy, bring revolution within Russia proper and re engineer their social life style in line with the west (anglo saxon).
This fight is well planned
Russia is done? Sounds like ‘objective comment’.
Bugger off gimp,destroying ukranian weapons either way gets you poofters nowhere,
iq if ye shoesize can’t fight for shit because your heads too far up zelenskys cakewhole!
Your going down gimp,this I swear you cannot no matter what deny the reason,bio-lab-fad!
GOD BLESS MOTHER RUSSIA,WOE UNTO YOU DEGENERATE LGBTQ PROXY PARASITES!
Replace “Russia” with “EU” and you will be 100% right. Ongoing global crisis is the attempt of anglo-saxons to survive as hegemonic power by the price of economic downgrading of european states (from France to Russia) like in both world wars. No colonies, not enough resources for “golden billion”, some regions of this billion should be poor to let others support their consumption level. China, India and Russia, Venesuela and even Central Africa don’t allow to be robbed by the west, so one part of the west made the decision to rob another part under false flag reason — anti-russian embargo. Economics of EU will go down, this step will open new markets for US made goods (“Chevrolet” instead “Volkswagen”) and new loans for bankrupt EU states. More loans — less independence. The worse EU live, the more fascist tendencies inside EU. Anglo-saxons want germans to be poor and fighting with Russia. But they have no chance against hyper-sonic and nuclear weapon. Hohols are dying for interests of Fashington, germans could join them with the same result, though result will be even worse, because Kiev is ancient russian(at least from 9th century) city and will not be heavily bombed unlike Berlin.
Russia simply can not keep on fighting all of NATO rabid hyena pack with velvet gloves. It is high time the Kiev cabal is eliminated and a severe cost is imposed on NATO supply lines.
Why? Russia is doing OK, and happily cleaning up Ukraine, with minimal loss. Would you prefer a Western Style Carpet Bombing Campaign, and who will be the winners then? Be patient.
Cut off the head of the snake. It’s time. Overdue.
why – only a dip shit Ukrainian Nazi would destroy fertilizer when they are basically an agricultural nation – sort of like burning down forests if you are a key exporter of timber! What a success! Not many hypersonic missiles use ‘gunpowder’ these days!
The HIMARS isn’t being used as a military weapon because their intel can’t give them worthwhile targets; it’s strictly being used as a terror weapon and every country who supplied them, or the missiles is guilty of terrorism.
Just pause and think of another angle – not many would put a counter barrage radar around a fertilizer warehouse – soft targets – the reality of war demands easy propaganda!
The many pctures for it is very nice.
Cope Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahagahagahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Can a terrorist be guilty of terrorism? Wake up stupid.
Disinfecto has been hit by a Himar.
A very short version is its 227mm grenades with highest accurasy in distance in Ukraine up to 70 km.
Very god if someone here and there arer terrified.
It says Ukra now can hit big targets far away very well by the explosion seize.
they think they are safe good luck with that
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahagahagahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahagahagahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Theye dont have acces to it. The Russians has.
Some might even use it for explosives and play Beirut
Though advanced sorts of pressed gunpowder is a fuel of solid-fuel rockets and missiles. Some sorts of gunpowder (pyrocollodium smokeless gunpowder, invented by D.Mendeleev) can be made out of cotton, technical cannabis and other plants with high cellulose content.
What Moscow is waiting for? For God sake do it now.
So go and do it, boss.
there r people thats thinking about doing it
So go and do it, boss.
Depend on how many civilians casualties there is ,the I might the Russian pouring more men power around the karkov region.
Im sure thats what the Ukras hope for.
It is clear that a case exists to move Ukrainian Nazi forces back further from regions that have left Ukraine. Indeed that is exactly what the Russians have said all along, after all the special operation’s stated goals are peace for the regions that have been monstrously abused by the Ukrainian Nazi piss over the last eight years.
Russia should not do the slow pace fight that will drag it out Ukraine can deploy million of men. If russia moves quickly then the soldiera will have no choice but to give up as they have no land to retreat to anymore.
,,mineral fertilizers and saltpeter exploded, explosions continue”
nice COPE southfront but you are right, now your ammo depot is like fertilizer :D
God bless HIMARS
Los Himars seran convertidos en cenizas, no lo dudes. Las respuestas rusas suelen ser devastadoras.
You keep losing your lands and cities and you have the audacity to tell others to cope over a destroyed ammo deport ?
Time to carpet bomb central Kiev government buildings!
There is nothing more deadlier for libtards than bombing of Internet towers, propaganda offices, parliament buildings and presidential palaces :D Imagine no Internet for 2 months – half of Ukropistan population and kleptocrats would die from grief :D Они все зжертвы, как Зеленскии сказал.
Ruskies in Panic mode i love it squeaking like little mice getting crushed. Love those tears 😘
Russian cowards will never do it
bye bye and say HI MARS
The list of high ranking Russian officers killed in the HIMARS strike in Kherson:
• Major General Nasbulin
• Colonel Gorobets
• Colonel Kens
• Lieutenant Colonel Koval
• Lieutenant Colonel Gordeev
Bye bye hans, as always you comment will vanish from here as you do too. You will always stay a looser in this forum :-) That is the price you have to pay when spreading fakes and utter BS. Simple as that.
Its corfirmed by russian side, just like 150+ russian destroyed in RU base in himars attack today. Deal with it.
Stop spreading your fake news here bitch. Just go to the desert and kill yourself.
another russo bots and sputnik/ russia today enjoyer……welcome in reality….himars working day and night since last week and russia cant do anything about this :D
This is a pro Russia forum if you stupid weirdo didnt noticed yet. So what are you even doing here? You want join our cause?!
Well. Number one is forgotten. You are denied to know your enemy raised blindfolded and kept away from most hrings of importance.
@TopGum & Jay
Do you even realize how stupid your comment is ?
If this is a pro-russian forum, then it should be very very easy to defeat any anti-russian comments by the sheer load of high quality, logic and fact-based pro-russian comments. Which by better argumentation and truth-based linear thinking and pointing out the main points in detail, then show to everybody, including outsiders, why russia is right and the others are wrong.
But instead you plea for banning and censoring all comments which are not pure “hurra russia” sheering, but question the war and the intentions of the current russian president ?
Do you even realize that exactly with this behaviour, you are proving all the anti-russian people from around the world right, and play directly into the hands of those, who say that Russia is not interested in truth, is in fact still a evil communist monster from hell, and that Russia and pro-russians websites are just communist hellholes, which always lie, and cannot stand the truth, what is why these evil judeo-communist scum, can only defend their dumb and clumsy propaganda claims, by deleting and censoring all opinions and comments which contradict the official communist party given direction and propaganda. (Same as in old communist Russia under Lenin or Stalin)
You here, prove these anti-Putinist people right, and by this you are degrading Russia and doing harm to it much more then any “Nazi” writer could every do. I hope you are proud of it, idiot !
Try being pro russian on Facebook and watch the comments, same deal other way round
Topcum is a sad roach that thinks talking Alone in the internet is some kind of Victory 😂🤣🤡 all pro Rússian fórums are on panicking mode now, some are enraged by the russian terríble performance others are stilll coping. Super entertaining to watch. Please let them continue 😘
sfsgg
Hans Raus is right. The information is accurate. The Ukrainians hit the HQ of the 22nd Army Corps in Kherson. A lot of dead
In other news Iran is now using more advanced centrifuges with “modified subheaders” for faster enrichment at their most fortified bunkers, probably courtesy of Pooty.
The slaves of the Psionists are suffering from explosive diarrhea and rectal prolapse and there’s nothing they can do about it while the war in Ukraine goes on, and it will go on for a very long time. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Mullahs get nukes and vaporize the welfare funded bananan republic of Israel before Trump wins the 2024 elections.
More like an UN prokct, where they make icecreme for the polar bears.
They do not behave like they believe they will ever get these territories back.
You do not go for a scorched earth tactic if you want to reclaim own territories
and free your own citizens taken hostage by an agressor….
Yes, they are not trying to win back the battle for the local hearts and minds, because they know this battle is by now impossible to win. So, “nach mir die Sintflut” is their tactic now.
Sure Steiner. Where is the russian air force though?
Xoxols are idiots and cowards. Did you notice, that the only thing that they are capable of blowing up is their own house? Have you ever wondered why nobody is getting involved apart from helping them to destroy themselves? That include US, EU countries and Russia.
Exactly right. They are well aware Ukraine as a state is gone. This is now a punishment of everyone who is not willing to side with nazis in Kiev and to make it harder for Russia to rebuild this future region of Russia. Quite obvious Washington vultures are behind these war crime tactics.
Reclaim? They aren’t even ukrainians. These bitches are polish descendants with nazi tendencies. They don’t give a **** about ukrainian lives.
Add to the mix the fact the these himars are 100% operated by murican mercs and you have it.
The russian tactic will work in the long term just because of this. They are showing to the ukrainians who their real enemy is.
I am appalled that after drafting even women, revolts haven’t exploded around Ukraine yet. But this is the end game. People can tolerate everything to a certain point. But there are red lines even for peasants ( ask Marie Antoinette ).
Scorched russian strategy younmean 🤣😂🤣 Boom Boom GOES the himars 🤣😂🤡
Putin war strategy is very poor. His poor tactics prolong the war and more civilians are sufferings. The same mistakes Putin made in Syria. That’s why we still have conflict in Syria.
Are you serious? You still have conflict in Syria because the USA, Israel and Turkey are attacking you. Do you want Russia to fight against THEM? Russia came to Syria to save it from Daesh, and it did so!
Sure.There are still a conflict in the mistaken socalled state named Syria.
Blaming others for that tells every thing. They not even liberated themself.
@Helen
Yes, it came to Syria on invitation of Syrian president Basher Al-Assad.
But in Ukraine there was no invitation. No Ukraine president invited the russian troops. Maybe had Janukovich in 2014 immediately did a scream for help, ask for russian support and Putin had answered that positively, then you could correctly compare the move of russian forces into Syria with the current moving of russian forces into Ukraine. But without that, it is obviouly two completely different things. One is an legimate stationing of troops in Syria on invitation of the Syria president, the other is an invasion and war of aggression, started by Russia against and disliked opposed (at least in TV) country, which is led by (at least in TV) the jew Mr. Zelensky. In fact most here, even G2 man (the only true pro-Putin writer here who’s able to write more then just one or two-liner comments) have already realized that is is jews on both sides of the Atlanic (West and East) who are running this show. They pose as Americans, French, Germans, Poles, Ukrainians, Russians etc. Position all the top position with their agents which then claim to be the native rulers, when in fact they are jewish snakes and parasites hell-bend on bringing each country down to its knees, ignite senseless wars, kill the population and degrade everything.
Only if the mayority of people around the world wakes up to this truth, only then the world will become a better place and can ‘heal’.
no because Tahrir Sham use chemical attack in Syria therefore Assad will no atttack to Idlib
It seemes some of it hit You.
Russia has promised none of that. They do as told. Assads are kept in control and safe in most parts. By that they have baserights well kept.
Your version for still is far out too. Russia and for that matter even USA saved Syroa for ISIS. If not Assads wasnt there at all.
People like him and for that matter Erdogan should have been replaced many yers ago.
Just like Beirut this has Zionist footprint written all over it
Everybody else does it. It would make sense if you let them take over. Anybody can see thye do most things much better vthey Your kind.
Noah buildimng the Ark was no muslim from there. If so all of You would have drowned. Most likely Pre- Zionist did it.
S-400 didnt work or something??? im confused
I’m wondering the exact thing. Are the HIMARS missiles too advanced for Russian counter munitions? Why can’t they find where the launchers are?
They are artillery granades or semilar to. They are too fast.
Those move around as random as they can just as the rest of the artillery.
If You dont like them comming, You have to find the Bradly vehicles where they come from.
Hard to see if those 2 senteces are related:)
But I can help. The Himars are very big and accurate artillery 227 mm artilery grenades. The range of the low distance model is 70 km. Kherson by that is easy.
S-400 are not deployed in Kherson, closest battery in Dhankovoy in Crimea far away. Rostov-Na-Donu and Belgorod are the other S-400 batteries all in Russian soil. So HIMARS are out of target range of S-400. And remember the anti-ballistic missile range for S-300 and S-400 is much shorter than anti-aircraft range, only up to 30-40km.
Wait Im going to tell you a joke. Are you ready?
S 400
😂🤣🤣😂😂
except your retarded ass didnt read part where nearest s400 is in Dzhankoi Crimea 150km away from Nova Kakovka. Ballistic missiles/rockets can only be intercepted within 30km from battery. S-400 cannot be deployed near frontlines due to URKOP artillery. Russians currently have no way to protect against artillery shells.
Russia had better redouble its efforts to neutralize those HIMAR AND move the front away from the cities it wants under its eventual permanent control (the missile they have, have a 50-mile range, so that’s your search grid). Also, why can’t the Russia anti-aircraft weapons detect and shootdown the HIMARS missiles?
The RF can not only detect and shoot down HIMARS systems, but also jam their systems. The question is, why they are not doing it. Yet.
Why dont You fucking look it up Yourself. You are raised not to. That ´s why You are remaind stupid living in own created dark…
This is no unicef or a childcare center. Very few where I live are like that. If so they have the jobs, where no educations is needed.
Lack of S-300V1 and S-300V4 in combat zone Kherson/Donbass is costing lots of ammo depots. S-400 batteries in Crimea/rostov and Belgorod are out of range. HIMARS travel at mach 3 which isn’t hypersonic. SA-12/SA-23 are definitely capable of shooting them down but need to be deployed within 30km of ammo depots.
You can’t jam unguided shell, because no radio-electronic components inside, this is the main shell of all MLRS.
Reports on Avia Pro have just stated that a Hymars grouping was destroyed. A Russian Awac in Belarus was involved in targeting with many hundreds of Russian MLRS missiles. A Russian drone was also involved.
The Hymars were smashed before they were about to fire, lol. So all the crews would also be dead.
Nice story, another 20 himars just like
1000 bayraktars destroyed ? :) you russian bots love to cope so hard .
Thye also annouced that Putin would make striptease for ut. UN has declared it for not needed. He already was as naked as ansnyone can be.
Im so tired about those which are forbidden to learn to lookup Yóurself.
You never look up. By that its very visible You learn nothing and keep Yourself in the darks. I kind of dont care about that.
But blaming me, west and others for it is a no go. You just told my why You write so much crap. Nothhing else is allowed.
Salt-peter and Ammonium nitrate are usually used in irrigation food production, but can be used in explosives.. I’m sure that this was a ‘set-up’ target as other compounds can be used and having this could be a detriment in the future.. holding back traditional fertilizers piss farmers off, but the ‘enemy’ destroying the supply creates the attitude change that is needed.. and gives Ukraine a victory claim
What are the people in the first video saying? Are they just surprised by the explosion, or happy, or sad?
Sadly surprised. Ebal, blyad, ebal, something close to “fuck, oh shit”.
The BIG QUESTION is: When Russia Will Stop playing Nice and wipe out Ukraine with those bombs they used in Syria? No KABs? no Thermobarics? No Free-fall bombs? Just a Raid Overnight of Strategic Aviation and the Ukronazis will run like children! The Ukrainian Nationalists are terrorists. Needed to be treated accordingly. If Putin let it continues this way, it head will fall. Putin is weak. Not really Hawkish. Medvedev will take it´s place.
Syria Ukraine different situations. Russia does not want to kill Ukrainian civilians, relatives of many Russians themselves. In Syria, Russia was killing ISIS.
That’s true, there are more relatives than in West and East Germanies 30 years ago.
Try to talk with Ypu RT TV again.
TOS is thermobaric, heavy bombs were dropped on “Azovsteel” from Tu-22, 203mm mortar mines of “Pion” and 203mm shells of “Malka”, so what do you want? Cities won’t be ruined, at least cities of LDPR, but every day 250-500 nazis are dead and more wounded. I think this is nice spanking on daily basis. About Medvedev, he is a liberal (i.e. pro-western), don’t trust his words, because his deeds are the reverse. Today even some liberals hates hohols, because hohols are disgusting, ask germans and poles (both hates Russia) who gave homes to hohols, now they wish hohols to go back to Hohland.
Medvedev who sold out Lybia and just waits after Putin has left to sell russia to his US Friends?
You want a Russia who fights put chechens or tartars in charge of the war and let Medvedev
calm down the oligarchs who are crying cause they cant go on parties with western oligarchs
at the moment.
Putin let the barking rat Lithuania blockade Kaliningrad. Nothing done so far. Ukrainians are using terrorists tactics. This attack was on civilians. If Russia wants to continue using only missiles, i think things won´t solve as they should be. The West doesn´t understand good will. It perceives as weakness. And Ukrainians unfortunately choose this destiny, so. KABs, FABs, Thermo on Ukronazis Now!
I hate to say that, but yes, in principle you are correct.
Doesn’t get anymore succinct than what you just said!… “Why” does Russia continue to play by their rules by leaving it’s membership at the UN Ca$in0 intact!?….
Sure. If i decided it was next some time ago.
If You want to meet Nato, we are there.
They are not the small nice neutral and peacefull Ukraine.
Stop bitching loozer. NKVD, really? Xooxls blew up fertilizer in the own backyard. Who cares? We just have extra 100,000 xoxols without homes or windows in their homes. While NATO has equipment only for nice video shoots, gun shows, fake maneuvers and Photoshoped press releases. Have you ever seen an american Abrams tank with dirt on it? Ever? They are only made for hardwood floors.
Putin is too busy getting his suit ready for church on Sunday.
a warehouse here and there.. it gets dull, tbh Russia needs to call a war in Ukraine a war already and raise the whole thing to the ground.
The Western funded terror of Bandera continues and no decision making centers are destroyed.
At least Macron and Putin still have time for visits on the phone.
Banderas was jailed by Gestapo.
“Iran is planning to supply hundreds of drones with combat weapon capabilities to Russia for use in Ukraine, a top U.S. official said Monday.” I think this is a very good news as these drones has been successfully tested on the real field for years, for example in the saudi/houdi wars.
Haha 🎈
Russia won’t do anything except keep doing their artillery work on the ground. They have made like 10,000 threats to target leadership and haven’t done it. Keep getting hammered by America I guess, do nothing.
4chan hacked Hunter’s icloud, there they found a strange character called “Pedo Peter” – is it Joe Biden?
No doubt. America is sick to its core. Probably why it supports Ukraine.
So Ukraine attacked and hit a target in its former territory. I’m impressed. Perhaps if the retreated slower, they might have remembered to blow it up on the way out.
Yahoo posting that the ukies destroyed Russian command centres and armaments depots. LOL they never stop the bull.
We have very good information by very detailed maps where troops are and missile and artillery hitting. Its njot Our fault You fx cant see the many dayli rapports form
Denis Davydov, Times radio, Sky news and many others.
By thats you would be able to add and subtract better. Mostb othe people can see Ukras must defend themself and make many Russians losses too If not Russia was everywhere already.
Ypu should not believe most of the Rusisian and ukrianian propaganda. WE here do not. But we do believen in the many other more sober sitesw.
The do tell Ukras destroy a lot of Russian stuff and facilities. It might not be as many as the Ukra officials says. In the other hand Russians hardly admit any own losses, whích is impossible.
Russia can prevent this by deploying SA-12/SA-23 anti-ballistic missile batteries all around Donbass and area of operation. But so far they haven’t.
They can’t forget 50 (or even 57) dead generals and officers killed in Shirokaya Dacha near Krivoy Rog city north to Herson region. That’s why they are trying to create new shiny peremoga (false PR-victory) near Herson, this is PR-revenge.
The Ukrainians destroyed the HQ of the 22nd Army Corps in Kherson. Many dead.
I don’t know why you guys are deleting comments now. Just like the Americans I guess, against free speech.
Directly from RT : “A Russian ammunition depot exploded in the city, the speaker of the Odessa regional administration Sergey Bratchuk and adviser to the head of the Kherson region Sergey Khlan said.”
So it was not saltpeter
Sergey Bratchuk is in Odessa, the same article then says: “Sources of Russian TASS and RIA Novosti news agencies, in turn, say that warehouses with saltpeter were attacked.” Remember the Beirut explosion? It’s a substance that would possibly explode.
Saltpeter is an ingredient of gunpowder.
And fertilizer with TNT equivalent 0,42, i.e. 1 ton of saltpeter has same power as 420 kg of trinitrotoluol (trinitrotoluene).
