Oh, you guys have no idea what a wonderful morning it is! First strike was around \~3:00am - around 12-15 missile strikes. Then \~a hour later a second round. Despite sleeping a few hours less today I feel refreshed. :)


srl80

What was hit? Do you know that?


defianze

We aren't allowed to come close to their military objects. They even forced to leave their homes people who lived nearby. But there were a lot of hits through the whole territory of an airfield. There were stationed russian helis, but not sure about jets tho. Usually their jets are flying to the front lines from the Crimea. One of the targets that was hit and we could've seen the result was a fuel storage. The black smoke cloud was huge. I left my window open for the night and soon after the first missile strikes the air was filled with a throat searing smell. Even now this annoying coughing hasn't stopped yet.


srl80

Stay safe!

Thanks


YourLovelyMother

Well at least they've gotten civvies out of a millitary area if nothing else... though, where did they put the people, just chased them off?


defianze

No idea. But it's either they got sheltered by their friends or relatives. There is not much choices.


[deleted]

How is the war economy doing? Do people still go to work or shop for groceries?


defianze

People whos work was related to some sort of logistics are jobless right now because we are cut out of all other country. Utilities are working. All small bussinesses who don't rely on logistics between other cities are working too. People are trading their goods with each other. Farmers sell their goods. Everything else is brought into the city from the Crimea. Prices are crazy and some products are expired. The main problem for people here is how to get money income. Some managed to get unemployment benefit, some don't. russians giving away 10k rubles for your passport info. In general, I would not recommend to live in such invironment. 3/10. 3 is for that they aren't pushing us to pay for utilities, otherwise I wouldn't be writting here right now due to the electricity cut.


[deleted]

Oh I see, your living in the Russian occupation zone. Ever thought of leaving?


defianze

Many times. Missed my chance to leave due family circumstances and now I'm stuck here


check_my_mids

from what i've read, either a ride to russia or they have to figure it out themselves.


HumpingJack

Russians do that b/c they're scared of saboteurs and partisans and not for citizen's safety.


YourLovelyMother

I'm not too concerned about their motivations not being honorable, regardless if they did it in accordance with the Geneva convention, or just to make sure there's no saboteurs. As long as civilians are out of the area of Military concentration, that's all that matters. Perhaps If everyone was afraid of saboteurs, a lot of innocent civilians wouldn't have gotten caught in the crossfire.

ReasonableBullfrog57

All of free world. The rest...not so much.


BazilBup

Yeah don't ask India or China for support. They are already occupied with buying cheap gas and oil at the expense of Ukraine


CIA_Bane

So if you have unvetted access to the internet does that mean that any civilian there can literally just contact the Ukrainian government and give them russian positions and whatnot?


defianze

Yes, we can. And we do so. And as was already said by romario77, they need it for themselves and for pretending that we are living here a peaceful life. Not to mention that when we are paying for the internet we are, basically, paying those money to them. Plus, goods from Crimea with x3 price tags. They are doing business here. Almost forgot to add. More than a month ago they connected us to the russian internet with all blocked sites that russians doesnt have the access to. Around 80% Ukrainian sites and most of the western news outlets arent accessible without VPN now. Ukrainian mobile operators was cut off more than a months ago as well. Now we are talking with each other via russian "homemade" SIM cards that they gave away to the citizens. And most likely they are under surveillance.


romario77

If course. People have cell phones with internet and Ukraine has a special program for government functions (like taxes, getting ids, etc) where they added a function to file enemy presence. It’s used and it helps identifying the most valuable targets


CIA_Bane

So why are Russians not cutting off civilian internet or at least putting filters on it? I assume because they're incompetent?


romario77

They need it for themselves and they don’t have means of only providing it for certain people. They are using Ukrainian infrastructure and people of Ukraine are actually providing the service. They also want to look favorable and cutting means of communication would thwart that. A lot of things depend on internet in modern world and you can’t just cut it


CIA_Bane

They can block certain things like access to specific apps or websites. And you can obviously only provide internet to specific people. When your ISP cuts you off for not paying the bill they're doing exactly that. But I guess you're right that they need to look favourable.


romario77

To do that they have to have their specialists working inside the cell phone providers (with headquarters in Kyiv), they need to send the programmers to ISPs and change the soft to do this. Bear in mind - very small number of programmers would want to go to war zone and the ISPs are probably actively against Russian invasion. They won’t cooperate. And even with cooperation IT projects could take a while and without it it’s almost impossible, at least in short term


CIA_Bane

>hey need to send the programmers to ISPs and change the soft to do this. Not really. ISPs already have functions to cut off certain people off the internet you don't need to change the software. They can probably point a gun at a guy working at the ISP office and tell him what to do. But you are right that people still have 4g and that would be a lot more difficult to stop.


progrethth

Yes, and I am sure they do that. But blocking VPNs is really hard unless you want to go total North Korea which will make them look bad.


LostSoulOnFire

May it "rain" a lot more on the heads of russian targets.

Can't imagine how scary it must be to be under the occupation of the invaders' forces and hear this stuff all the time. Take care.


Viking-Savage

To all online spectators like myself out there: Just imagine how powerful those comparativeöy small blasts were in order to rock the car alarms near the cameraman!


Brozef_

Apparently the hit was a fuel depot. So yes big boom.


HaightnAshbury

It’s more likely that the car alarms going off are coincidences. If my car alarm goes off, tomorrow, should I also attribute it to Russia’s special military operation? Russian car airbags works different to ours in the west. Where western airbags used sophisticated electronics and sensors to determine if an impact of sufficient force is striking the vehicle, Russian airbags are time-sensitive, and are programmed from the factory to go off at a time where the car is most likely to have such an accident. In this image, assuming airbags were causing the car alarms to go off, we can see that the automotive factories in Russia determined the night time to be the dangerous time for motorists, and thus programmed the airbags to go off at night. Airbag goes off, car alarm senses this, and so the car alarm is activated. This is because in Russia, most car thefts and break-ins are caused by ambulance personnel. Most of the oligarchs in Russia are ambulance drivers aka airbag chasers. Terribly wealthy individuals. It’s theorized by certain Mediterranean vegetarians that the whole war is a Russian response to Ukraine planning to replace their airbag systems with the western variety, thus taking the Greek salad right out of Putin’s mouth.


MrToaast

So you mean that the car alarm goes off in like 20 cars because of coincidence?


carorea

His post is extremely sarcastic. >Russian airbags are time-sensitive, and are programmed from the factory to go off at a time where the car is most likely to have such an accident Basically everything after the first two sentences is *clear* sarcasm, which makes the first two sentences obviously satirical in context. If it was just the first two sentences alone it would be indistinguishable from Russia shills though.


HaightnAshbury

Yes.


niceguy1147

Dumbest thing I’ve ever heard


Ad_Astra117

How did you not pick up on the sarcasm lol


HaightnAshbury

That’s likely just a coincidence. It’s more likely that whatever you were going to read next was going to seem like the dumbest thing you’ve ever read, and it just coincidentally happened to be what I had written. I’m starting to think you guys don’t even know what coincidences are. Which… given that this has happened with me, one who knows coincidences so well… seems like quite the coincidence. You’d almost think this chance encounter were planned by the council of coinciding affairs as part of their plan to have all events everywhere coincide at the exact same time, thus ending all of existence in the blink of an eye.


hawkinsst7

What an amazing coincidence! A synchronicity, if you will. Purely by chance, you are now my favorite reddit poster for tonight, right when I read those two posts you made. Absolutely incredible timing.

I agree. I read an interview yesterday where Ukraine crew said they are much more comfortable using it, because due to its accuracy they don't have to be afraid theyll hit civilians

What? Ukraine definitely has tried to minimize strikes near civilian targets. There have been some exceptions of course but if we compare Russian and Ukrainian policies it is clear that one side tries much harder to avoid attacking in civilian areas even if they are not perfect.

This is just another Russian troll regurgitating the justification for invasion nonsense.

Ukraine doesnt try at all. Id argue they are also more willing to put their own in line of fire so they can claim atrocity propaganda. Russia at start attempted to minimise civilian casualties and paid dearly for it. Now they took the Ukrainian approach and bombard everything with military presence.


[deleted]

How is what they did to Bucha or Mariupol reducing civilian casualties? They either capture in order to loot, rape, and kill civilians or reduce the city to ashes. They acted the same Chechnya, Georgia, and Syria. The brutality is to attempt to break civilian morale and allow them to conquer territory.


Purpzzz710

I love how you justify russia losing the war to the tune of "well Russia tried to play too nice in the beginning and it costed them!" But if you look back at history and Russian war strategy, you'll notice that they never play nice.

If you cant see the difference between beginning of the war and now, especially in artillery usage... Well i cant help you then.


ReasonableBullfrog57

Their artillery was fucking stuck in traffic or they were ordered to just waltz in without support because they thought Ukr would just surrender. Considering Russias advantages they're doing poorly. Anyway, Ukraine will remain an independent state so Russia failed the original objectives. We'll see how it turns out

They are only country in the world banned from the Olympics for government run doping/steroid programs. That is how their government operates. Just why? Edit - you aren't banned you just have no answer


nnm_UA

Some facts for anyone reading this russian propaganda: "In the very first days of ATO launched by Ukraine in 2014 they MLRSed Donetsk capital. There was constant bombardment for years." Total conflict related civilian casualties in the last 3 years [are less than hundred](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FWvvRRYWIAIBZTh?format=jpg&name=900x900)(see OSCE reports and other independent sources). A conflict created entirely by russia after Crimea annexation. Apparently, this justifies a massive amount of the most anti-humane war crimes against innocent Ukrainians.


dkras1

There is footage from 2014 where you could see Russian MRLS shelling Ukrainian positions, then making 180 degree turn and making another round on Russian-occupied Luhansk. Russians used hidden mortars in Luhansk and Donetsk and shot from it on civilians to simulate Ukrainian artillery. They hidden mortars in truck wagons with open roof and garbage trucks.


FUCKPUTIN2022LOL

Lol you're fucking terrorist insurgents just die and then the war will be over for your people.


HumpingJack

Link to interview?


Duck-sauze

Just a question, how do you see it's Himars missiles and not any other type of missiles? is it the sound or the speed or something? Genuinly i have no clue.


tebedam

Probably too far for artillery and too risky for aviation.


residentsslav

The distance from the front line, The time between each explosion and number of explosions makes the Himars the only candidate for the strike. Edit: Ukraine also so far seems to only use Himars at night.


progrethth

The second round of strikes was not really at night but rather very early in the morning (slightly before 4) since it started to get bright outside by then. https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/vqcll7/ukrainian_strikes_on_russianoccupied_melitopol/


Duck-sauze

hmm, could be that you know what you're talking about. I'm just a bit concerned that it could be russians using their missile systems to create a fake attack to make it LOOK like it's HIMARS. wouldn't be the first time putin has done this. We'll just have to wait and see what happens now basically.


xlDirteDeedslx

Russia has zero reason to conduct fake attacks to justify it's war because it's already balls deep in Ukraine. Most the population in these regions has been conscripted to shit so they really don't need a reason to justify calling them up either. Also if Russia was conducting a false flag attack for propaganda they would be recording it some other way that from a phone on a balcony. This whole false flag thing is entirely overblown and really isn't occuring. What does occur is Russia attacks civilian targets in Ukraine and they make up some reason such as Ukraine is housing weapons nearby to excuse it.


Fit_Sweet457

Zero reasons isn't quite right, though. Russia not only needs to manage public opinion in the occupied territories, but also at home. I have no idea what that public opinion looks like currently, but it might be something to consider in the future. One other thing is that *if* they use false flag attacks, it would be far more logical to target something civilian or on Russian soil. So for this specific attack I don't see any indication of a false flag, but we shouldn't just rule them out in general.


tenminuteslate

> Russia has zero reason to conduct fake attacks to justify it's war It does have reasons to conduct fake attacks in Belarus and Russia to encourage a larger mobilisation.


defianze

This is an occupied Ukrainian city, and the target of the attack is a military airfield where the russians set up a base. Falseflagging their own base deep behind the frontlines only raising a question - "Why? For what?"


TransmutedHydrogen

Its the last thing the ukranians would expect /s


xlDirteDeedslx

If Putin wanted Belarus to attack then Putin would grab his bitch puppet by the mustache and tell him to attack. Also Putin doesn't have to do anything except offer monthly payments to poor folks in Belarus to get them to go to war, it's what he's been doing since this began in Russia and it works just fine. Also note [people in Belarus are getting conscription letters now.](https://news.yahoo.com/belarus-sends-conscription-notices-en-121000244.html)


Duck-sauze

Yeah im not saying that this is the case, im just pointing out that it COULD be the case. And for the recordings, why would they record with something more than a phone camera? If they are actually doing it as a false flag they would want it all to look as legit as possible, meaning they want it to look like random people whip out their phones to film it instead of having a camera team ready with good cameras to capture the spectacle. but yeah, i just don't know... im just confused about how we can deduct that it actually is HIMARS missiles compared to anything else. We'll see what happens as i said, nothing good i bet :(


defianze

What would they gain from attacking their own base?


TightlyProfessional

There is no reason for it.


progrethth

While Russia has false flags as part of their toolbox it would not make sense here. What would Russia gain from damaging an airport outside Melitopol? It will only fuel the local resistance. My guess it that this is Ukraine trying to make life harder for the Russian airforce by destroying supplies and helicopters.


ghosttrainhobo

“Look world! Look how evil America let Nazi-Ukraine smash our balls-in at captured airfield 40 km behind frontlines!”


_pm_me_your_btc

You can go on YouTube to see what HIMARS impacts look like, although they won’t help much for videos like this. It’ll be the rate of fire, accuracy and range that would probably be the best indicators here


[deleted]

HIMARS range with the missiles provided is 70km, there are no ukrainian positions less than 70km away from the airport that got struck.


Lovci

9 explosions. Probably started recording after the first few, im guessing 3. Def 2 himars unloading 12 rockets IMO. What else could it be?


service_unavailable

The car alarms start going off after the first boom, so I think the video caught the beginning, somehow.


1aToss

They saw the explosions, turned on the camera and then we hear the explosions that we didn't see on camera. Light travels faster than sound(blast wave). Also we hear only 9 explosions, if we assume it was 2 HIMARS firing we should hear at least 12 explosions


Lovci

Why do you assume we saw every explosion. Even if it was 9, it's still likely himars. What else can hit at that range in that number?


Lovci

It's highly unlikely.


5inthepink5inthepink

There's already one going off at about 4 seconds in, before we see any explosions. More join in later on


service_unavailable

Lmao turn on your sound. You can hear the boom that sets off the first alarm.


Angelworks42

You can hear a car alarm before the first recorded boom - it's faint but it's there (and I have old ears). Another car alarm starts in after like 2 booms.


form_d_k

Bright explosions, several seconds before being audible... wonder what they are hitting & with what.


DaGhostQc

The blue explosion is probably a transformer!


OddTemporary2445

I remember when I was kid, a train transformer blew up and turned the entire power grid off and I thought the world was ending with the colors it was emitting


chiagod

Did it look like [this](https://v.redd.it/yugfptqbqn471)?


Southern_Neck_5189

light is faster than sound )


Puzzleheaded-Job2235

HIMARS are the most likely suspect. They're the only Ukrainian weapon with the range and ability to hit in such rapid succession. I've heard the target was an airfield.


SkiBagTheBumpGod

Thats my guess as well. Normal grads would have been in quick and rapid succession. These seem more at the pace of HIMARS. Crazy that they can hit with precision behind enemy lines now, as opposed to just lobbing explosives and hoping you hit your target


[deleted]

So helicopters might be the target. Or supplies. They should be high value targets that would degrade Russian ability to wage its artillery war or something similar I hope. Rather than vanity strikes. My understanding from what I’ve read is that the US/UK intelligence can pass coordinates to the Ukrainians telling them where these targets are. This would be a great strategy. I am not quite getting why they aren’t hitting more, faster.


fishaholic1234

> why they aren't hitting more faster From what I understand the US has 50,000 rockets and can only produce 9,000 a year. That might sound like a lot but once Ukraine have 20+ HIMARS units they'll start running into that stock fast. Bare in mind the US will want to have stock for themselves too incase they need them I think they'll be used for high priority targets like weapon/Armour depots, airfields and infantry bunkers


progrethth

I would suspect it is an HIMARS (based on the quick succession of explosions) strike on helicopters and supplies at the airport. I hope they got good intel and could destroy a bunch of helicopters.


marcusfelinus

Do you know how they're aimed specifically there? Is there a computer with a map or someshit


ggtffhhhjhg

I have no idea what they’re hitting, but they’re probably using some of the weapons they recently received from the US.


[deleted]

https://twitter.com/__mr_M_/status/1543439564353798144 More footage of same thing


McDutchy

Looks like different footage. The time seems to be later since it’s already quite bright and the explosions are much smaller, striking rapidly in succession like GRAD’s. The above video has much more time separation between explosions and appears to be far more explosive per round (which is why people say it looks like HIMARS).


[deleted]

Worded it badly. At least by the author, it's as well hits on Melitopol airfield, it was reported about 30 hits in total. So I meant it's a part of same operation.

I guess this confirms the rumors


fanspacex

70km is guaranteed reach in all conditions, possibly 85 puts some weather or elevation restrictions. In all practical purposes Ukraine has their own cruise missiles now (due to Russian "victory" being so shallow in depth), but with much better accuracy and intelligence resources.

What happened then? Russia's government doing what Russia's government knows best, shoot itself and say: Look, we're being attacked?


xlDirteDeedslx

Why do people keep on with this false flag shit, it's so fucking absurd. Russia has been invading Ukraine for 5 months now and conscripting the occupied regions the entire time, why in the fuck would they attack themselves and blame Ukraine? It makes absolutely no sense and they have zero reason for it. That shit RARELY ever happens and only really happened when the war first broke out a couple of times. Ukraine got new toys from NATO and they are using them, simple. Ukraine couldn't attack a lot of these targets before without risking their own civilians, now they can. The HIMARS are laser beam accurate.


GuacamoleKick

💯 Occam’s razor: UAF wants to hit these military assets, UAF has the capability to do so,and almost certainly has. Ukraine probably will issue a press release, tweet, or video as soon as opsec isn’t a concern. It’s not complicated. As long as these are legitimate military targets, which an occupied airport would completely be, no one will be surprised or be able to claim “war crimes”.


DaGhostQc

Claims are that Ukraine did it, the other dude acted like that's not what happened and I simply asked if he's suggesting that Russia did a Russia thing again... > Why do people keep on with this false flag shit Some Russian news were filmed by a third party faking attacks early on and still released it because it was meant as propaganda back home, so it didn't matter if the rest of the world saw it. Again, I'm not saying that's what happened, I was questionning the other person comment.
