Something exploded last night near Kherson Ukraine




Nice bit of commentary by the great Def Mon.

Looks even better the second time.





I won't say anything more at this point but it seems like big things are going to start happening soon in the Kherson Oblast.

And there is going to be a really big Ukrainian push in this area, very intense battles will take place.

it is hard to translate what is being said.

And then of course we don't know the geography of Russia and Ukraine and the meaning of the various regions.

It does look like Ukraine is bombing the heck out of Russian depots right now.
Intelligence agencies can see the fires all over the area in question. Ukraine has told all civilians to clear out of the area. It is going to be a horrific battle from what I am reading.

operating on both sides of the Ukrainian/Russian border. I understand they recruited, like, 30,000 willing people since 2014.
