Explosions reportedly continued for hours, and authorities evacuated nearby settlements. Initial reports indicate that the site, previously protected by one of Russia’s densest air defense networks, suffered catastrophic damage.

    If Russia truly has fucked its entire workforce into conscription, they may have to pull forces off the frontlines in order to manufacture replacements for lost equipment and munitions.

      they’ve torn through a tremendous amount of the soviet reserve hardware they had.

      but also have lost over a hundred thousand people, which is gonna hurt any workforce.

      woohoo keep going Ukraine!
