    Ukraine's air force says it destroyed Russian ammunition depot in Crimea

    July 2 (Reuters) - Ukraine's air force commander, Mykola Oleshchuk, said on Tuesday the military had carried out a "destructive strike" on a Russian ammunition depot in Moscow-occupied Crimea on Monday.

    "Once again, Ukrainian aircraft 'destroyed' by enemy propaganda continue to successfully perform combat missions," Oleshchuk said on Telegram, referring to a report by Russia's defence ministry that five Ukrainian military jets had been destroyed on an airfield in the Poltava region.

    Oleshchuk did not specify the exact location but posted a video from a local Ukraine-linked Telegram channel Krymskiy Veter allegedly showing the strike on Balaklava, near Sevastopol.
    Reuters could not immediately verify the statement or the video.
    Russian-installed Sevastopol Governor Mihail Razvozhaev said on Monday that air forces destroyed five Ukrainian targets over the Black Sea and in the Balaklava district. He mentioned no extensive damage, except small fires in a forest and damaged cars.

    Over the last two years of Russia's full-scale invasion, Ukraine has carried out multiple air and naval strikes on Russian targets in Crimea and caused significant damage to Moscow's fleet in the Black Sea.
    Lately, Ukraine has also intensified targeting of Russian air defence systems on the peninsula.

    UK Telegraph:

    “Ukraine will be told it is currently too corrupt to join Nato, in a major blow to Volodymyr Zelensky. Membership talks cannot progress until the former Soviet state cleans up, a major blow to Volodymyr Zelensky”

    Let's see what cuckoo Russia is up to now. Oh, they are ordering the arrests of people across the world on charges after they were tried in absentia by a kangaroo court in Moscow.. Everyone from Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas, to Ukrainian politicians, to foreigners who served in the Ukrainian military. The court has already decided that they are all guilty (no chance of defense) and has provided sentences ranging from three months to over twenty years. None of these people are Russian citizens and nearly all have never been inside of Russia.

    Let's take a look at the couple articles that outline this laughable "justice" of the Russians.

    The end of the following article outlines the laughable sentences against foreigners who served in the Ukraine military.

    Just another example of that UA is just step one for Putler.

    TL;DR: This Russian was drunk and arrested for carrying a knife in the town of Sweden's biggest ammunition factory, then it was found he had drones and were photographing prohibited installations.


    https://www-aftonbladet-se.translat..._sl=sv&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp

    A foreign citizen has been detained on suspicion of photographing protected objects in Sweden.

    According to Aftonbladet's information, it is a Russian citizen.

    The man was arrested when he was drunk at a festival in Karlskoga.

    A foreign citizen has been detained on suspicion of having taken pictures of various protected objects in various places in Sweden , writes Sweden's radio Ekot .

    Now Aftonbladet can tell how the man, who has Russian citizenship, was arrested.

    He was at a festival in Karlskoga where he was checked by a police patrol, who perceived him as drunk, according to Aftonbladet's information.

    He was then arrested on suspicion of breaking the Knife Act, but as he lacked identity documents, the police searched his hotel room.

    Among other things, a drone and other equipment were found there, which shows that he photographed protective objects in Stockholm and Sundsvall, according to the information.

    The man admits that he took the pictures but denies any crime.

    The man has now been arrested on suspicion of violating the Protection Act. Something that Säpo confirms.

    - I am aware of the case, but the Police Authority is leading the preliminary investigation, so I must refer all questions there, says Säpo's spokesperson Karin Lutz.



    Sweden and Norway have had plenty of similar cases lately. Sadly, it's presumably comparatively rare that GRU operatives are caught. This one would have gone free if he could have stayed away from the drinks.
