[RSS] Massive explosion as ‘Brit Storm Shadow missile’ hits Russian-occupied port in latest Ukrainian strike on Vlad

Post by RSS »

A HUGE explosion rocked a Russian-occupied port today in the latest Ukrainian strike against Putin. A suspected British-supplied Storm Shadow missile hit the Berdiansk port in Russian-occupied Ukraine causing “casualties and destruction”.

State media outlet RT said there had been “casualties and destruction” from the strike. The exact target was not immediately clear. The exiled Ukrainian mayor of Melitopol said: “It’s loud in temporarily occupied Berdiansk…The explosions were heard all over the suburbs.” The Berdyansk City Military Administration claimed that Russian ships taking Ukrainian grain and metal from the port were seen fleeing after the explosion. Storm Shadow air-launched cruise missiles can travel up to 600mph and blast targets up to 350 miles away that have long been out of reach for Ukraine. The high-tech weapons are capable of hitting targets at maximum range in just 35 minutes – travelling nearly half the length of the UK. The devastating missiles can wipe out well-defended static targets like facilities, bunkers and bridges and have already proved their abilities in the past weeks. On May 26, a massive explosion was seen ripping through a Russian missile store in the same port of Berdiansk allegedly also using British-made Storm Shadows. Pictures showed the enormous fireball erupting after the strike hit an arsenal of Russian S-300 air defence missiles. Meanwhile in the Belgorod region under siege by anti-Putin partisans, two women were reportedly killed. A child and another adult were reported as wounded amid intense shelling in Shebekinsky district. A report also claimed an explosive device was dropped on a road from a drone. The area is being attacked by the pro-Ukrainian saboteurs that are storming across the border from bases inside Ukraine. The freedom fighters, mostly belonging to the Free Russia Legion, claimed they are close to seizing the town of Shebekino as the war lands ever closer to Putin’s doorstep. The mysterious legion made up of Russian nationals states its aims are to “build a free Russia” – liberated from the tyranny of the Kremlin cronies. “Our enemy is thieves, murderers and war criminals in power in Russia, who unleashed a brutal war for their own benefit,” they declare online. A video from today shows the rebels inside Russia at Novaya Tavolzhanka village in the border region of Belgorod. Air raids have wailed non-stop for days and thousands of locals have evacuated towns and villages in the area as the fighting has intensified. In Russian-occupied Mariupol, also on the Sea of Azov, Russia claims to have shot down incoming Ukrainian missiles. Earlier Russia faced drone attacks in Kursk region, which borders Ukraine.
