Ukraine says it struck one of Russia's most advanced warplanes
Ukraine on Sunday said its forces hit an ultra-modern Russian warplane stationed on an air base nearly 600 kilometers (370 miles) from the front lines, after its Western allies allowed Kyiv to use their weapons for limited strikes inside Russia.
Kyiv’s main military intelligence service shared satellite photos it said showed the aftermath of the attack. If confirmed, it would mark Ukraine’s first known successful strike on a Su-57 fighter plane, a twin-engine stealth fighter lauded as Moscow’s most advanced military aircraft.
In one photo, black soot marks and small craters can be seen dotting a concrete strip around the parked aircraft. According to the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense, the strike took place on Saturday at the Akhtubinsk base in southern Russia, some 589 kilometers (366 miles) from the front line.
Ah yes, the typical Russia bad post. You should be at least, more creative than a rock
But this is just a news report detailing an event in the war... And plus, Russia is bad... So...
Are you having a bad day? 'Cause you sound very whiny for some reason.
He’s probably grumpy because of the time difference in wherever the Russians run Fancy Bear out of these days
Who?
They're on first.
I'm not asking you who's on first! What's the guy's name on second base?
Yes.
russian state hacker group
They also do psyops, social network influence/astroturfing, blackmail, etc
You 😘
I'm not going to tell a stranger how's my day. Sleep well
Totally normal human response.
VE HAF VAYZ OV MAKING YOU TALK, HUNTER!
I mean... Russia is bad. It invaded its neighbor twice, it makes being queer illegal, Putin critics keep "mysteriously" dying, the media is all state-owned meaning it only reports what Putin wants reported, the elections are fraudulent affairs...
But apparently they have fresh bread in supermarkets in Russia. So says Tucker Carlson. So it's not all bad.
Just out of curiosity, when did westerners started to have a problem with invading other countries? I ask just because of the fact that in the last 100 years you were always either the invader or sided with the invader. And now its all wrong. Could you care to point when this change happened?
Ah, yes. The famously singular "westerners" who all 100% agreed with every foreign affairs policy of their government over the past century.
Are you saying that because Western countries have done bad things it means that Russia isn't doing a bad thing when it does it too?
No, what i did was ask you a question, wich you did not answer
A people and it's government are two different things. And frequently the government does not give accurate representation of its people's desires.
But let's say the USA, because I assume that's what you are insinuating by westerners, is 100x more evil than all other countries combined. Does that mean the Russian government isn't bad? Nope. Truth doesn't change based on the moral character of another separate unrelated entity. Even if that entity is worse and even if that worse entity is the one saying the truth.
I'm not a fan of the US, its imperialism, and its geopolitical meddling but even I have to admit that the last time they annexed something was in 1900, Hawaii. Two years earlier, Puerto Rico (from Spain).
So why are you not protesting the ongoing occupation of south korea or japan?
You do know that South Korea and Japan want those bases there, right? They don't have to allow them. They are a huge boon to the local economies.
They may be there because of a war, but they remain there because the people in those sovereign nations want them there.
You know what military the sovereign nation of Ukraine doesn't want on its soil? The Russian military.
Lots of crayons eaten to puke this, i imagine
I would advise you not to violate our civility rule again.
Now-
Can you show any evidence whatsoever that the governments of South Korea and Japan are being forced to keep American military bases there?
Can you show any evidence whatsoever that their presence has been a net negative on either nation?
Can you show any evidence that the nation of Ukraine does want Russia's military on its soil?
Sorry i tend to respond badly to stupidity. Wont happen again.
The mental gymnastics involved in beliving the japanese people wants troops from the country who nuclealy nuked them for no reason other than showing power to a third country is really out of my mental grasp. Maybe one day i will consume so much propaganda that i will be smart enough to understand things like that.
And that would be the second violation after a warning. Time for a break.
How is that breaking civility rules but your post right here is fine? https://lemmy.world/comment/10541760
Saying a question is stupid is not uncivil. Saying a person is stupid is uncivil.
And asking why all Westerners are okay with invasions except when Russia does it is a stupid question because it's obviously not true based on anyone who has paid attention to protests in Western countries when those countries invade other countries.
And if you really have an issue with that, you are free to take it up with lemmy.world admins.
I’m just saying this feels like a “who watches the watchmen” type of deal. You’re like the biggest power user on this website and I see you bickering with people in the comments of every post with more than 30 replies.
Because neither of those are forced imperialist occupations.
You are mistaken. This is a "Russia is pathetically weak" post.
Lol, remember when a a band of mercenaries invaded Russia a year or two ago? The only reason this didn't end in devastation for Russia is because Wagner called it off.
Ah yes, the typical Russia bad post post. You could at least contribute something to the discussion.
Sometimes when everyone thinks something is bad, it's because it's actually bad.
Or its propaganda but who may know
One less weapon for the invading army, whats not bad about that?
lol check this guy’s history.
