Hunderte russische Truppen versammelten sich im Freien. Sie wussten nicht, dass die Ukrainer vier ATACMS-Raketen auf sie gerichtet hatten.

  2. Putin’s successor will be installed by NATO. Moscow will need to be managed by the EU and the US after Putin’s Regime implodes. If only Putin had any thoughts about the future of Russia. Now is the time to flesh out his escape plans

  4. Imagine if Ukraine had ATACMS when the Russians did their 40 miles long convoy.

  5. 75% success rate. I’d be curious to know the dud rate at large with these.

  6. Oooh boy. That has to be pretty nasty surprise for the Russians. Just like that hundreds of conscripts ended up dead or at least taken out of commission for a trip to hospitals.

  7. Business as usual for **Pooti**.

    Plenty of meat for the grinder

  8. Probably a bunch of kids who didn’t want to fight in the first place.

  9. Unlike unsuspected citizens, these terrorists are a military target.

  10. 100 dead for 4 missiles that cost between 850k to 3.5m each?! I was expecting a bigger bang for the missile buck tbh.

  11. Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s… *
    #BOOM!

    *Translated from Russian.

  12. Smart Russians ran to Thailand to avoid being useless conscript.

  13. Thank you! I needed some happy news. My son has fever. This helps bringing up my spirit.

  14. Wtf is this headline. It’s set up like it should say “you’ll never guess what happened next!”

  15. 1. Not hundreds, but approximately 100, and without confirmation of information. Ukrainian sources mention the figure of 116 people.
    2. One such blow once a year is unlikely to fundamentally change the situation. Meanwhile, Russia is dropping up to 100 guided bombs a day on Ukrainian positions.

  16. Anyone who seriously thinks that Russia would stand a chance against nato forces is fucking delusional. Pull shit like this against NATO forces and there ain’t gonna be any survivors.

  17. I truly hope Ukraine wins and saves itself from occupation. For both Ukraine’s sake and the wider implications for Europe/the west.

    But, God, it hurts my heart to know this is happening, even to the russians assembled like lemmings by careless toddlers.

  18. 1 ATACMS costs 1.7M (according wiki), 1 mobik costs $272 (according wagner pricelist). Russians are more cost effective.

  19. Not the first time happening, and not even the second. Somebody still have not learned the lesson to not gather lots of people in one place

  20. «Acquiring ATACMS from the United States, and then aiming them at the Russian army’s vulnerable rear area, has been one of Ukraine’s top military priorities in recent months.«

    Sounds juvenile, like something in the eye of the reader, but having worked in journalism here and there over the years I can guarantee there’s no way Russia’s “vulnerable rear” and Ukraine’s “top” were used by accident.
