Ukraine wants permission from the west to use long-range Storm Shadow missiles to destroy targets deep inside Russia, believing this could force Moscow into negotiating an end to the fighting.
Senior figures in Kyiv have suggested that using the Anglo-French weapons in a “demonstration attack” will show the Kremlin that military sites near the capital itself could be vulnerable to direct strikes.
The thinking, according to a senior government official, is that Russia will consider negotiating only if it believes Ukraine had the ability “to threaten Moscow and St Petersburg”. This is a high-risk strategy, however, and does not so far have the support of the US.
Ukraine has been lobbying for months to be allowed to use Storm Shadow against targets inside Russia, but with little success. Nevertheless, as its army struggles on the eastern front, there is a growing belief that its best hope lies in counter-attack.
Nah, there’s been enough spamming Israel hatred on this Ukraine thread. Please express your hatred towards Israel and it’s people to your daily Israeli hate threads so we don’t spam this thread about Ukraine with it any more than it already has been. Gaza might be the only thing your brain can have in it, but other people have other things they want to discuss.
They only referenced the fact that Israel has been targeting civilian populations while repeating the “we only strike military targets” discourse. In no way did they suggest they hated israelis.
I also think it’s important to condemn the actions of Israel while refraining from hating their population.
I haven’t been making any posts about it, only comments, and even then fairly rarely. Maybe once a month or two. I haven’t said or implied any hatred for Israel’s people. If you can’t even be honest about what I’m saying, the rate at which I am saying it, etc, who are you trying to fool?
And lastly I’ll take your lack of condemnation of Israel’s actions after being explicitly prompted to as support for their actions, as support for their genocide or palestinians. So much for the whole “jUsT SOmEoNE thaT THinks AnyoNE tHAt DiSAGREes ON AnyThING WIth THem muST suPPoRt genoCIde”
