  1. I’m just waiting for a headline that says, “Crimean bridge closed, explosions heard in Vladivostok.” Talk about paranoia and fear, the orcs have it all.

    • The update reads as if the occupation authorities couldn’t hide the fact that some missiles hit their targets, and so reduced the allegedly shot down missiles to one. And even that is doubtful, nothing they say can be trusted.

  2. Updated at 18:30 . Crimean pro-Russian media reports that four missiles were shot down.

    Updated at 18:15 . The guerrilla movement ATESH reports four explosions in Dzhankoya.

    So who do we believe? Not that it matters, we will soon have the evidence on video.

    But where were the explosions, Sevastopol or Dzhankoya? Dzhankoya makes sense, it’s where the orcs have a large base.

  3. ATESH, which operates inside Russia and putinaZi occupied Crimea, has already had some big scores in their one year of existence. It consists of Tatars and Ukrainians. They are brave people, because running a secret army inside a totalitarian regime is extremely difficult.
    I hope they are well funded and supported.
