That's a prewar photograph. Ukraine launched a flag onto the island using hi tech American weapons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 How's it fake if it's a prewar photo? That angle was quickly pointed out by Ukrainians on twitter so wasn't exactly a secret given how easy it is to check something like that: -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Quote A Ukrainian flag has been dropped by helicopter on Snake Island after Russian forces withdrew from the outpost, authorities said. The island, in the Black Sea, has been returned to the jurisdiction of Ukraine and the military operation concluded, Ukraine’s southern military command told a news conference. Spokesperson Natalia Humeniuk had initially said the flag had already been raised on the craggy outcropping. But she has since told CNN television that the flag was been delivered to the island via helicopter and will be hoisted when troops arrive. Homeniuk said her original remarks to reporters should be viewed "metaphorically". https://uk.news.yahoo.com/ukraine-delivers-flag-back-snake-090035057.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 So as the tpyxa tweet stated: " Flag of Ukraine is again on Snake Island". What actually matters is that the Russians are no longer where they don't belong where this island is concerned just as will hopefully be the case eventually with the rest of Ukraine's de iure territory. Wonder if Virginton will go for 50 red dots in a row like Marshmallo once did with my posts? Good way to out himself as a complete crank if he does. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Maybe they dropped a squad of brickies by helicopter to do the monoblock around the flag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Found this an interesting read. Lots of background on HIMARS and not afraid to have a go at recent Ukrainian tactical (or should that be strategic) decisions in Luhansk oblast: Have seen it suggested though that their narrative of valiantly doing their best to hold onto cities like Lyman, Rubizhne and Severodonetsk but just not having the weapons needed was aimed at securing HIMARS. If they had been retreating too easily odds on Macron and Scholz would have been pushing negotiations with Vlad that revolved around huge territorial concessions. Now, instead Germany and France have had to get serious about preparing for a winter without Russian natural gas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTimeLurker Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 The Americans appear to be upping the ante again on the quality of the weaponry they are providing to the Ukrainians: Up until now the NATO howitzers sent have not included this GPS targeting angle: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
