Judging by the sound delay, the explosion was likely up to 5 miles away. BBC interviewed locals, who claimed that the shock waves were so powerful they might have died if they were just outside. Zelenskyy’s delusional war is suicidal, this must end
Target was most likely a large ammunition depot. Judging by the sheer amount, that was their storage for their entire spring counteroffensive. Welp.
Hello comrade, i would be grateful for your opinion on this.
First of all the “Moscow Times” is one of those liberal, NED funded propaganda rags. It’s owned by some Dutch guy and is banned in Russia. One should always be very skeptical of anything such outlets publish.
As to the article itself, despite the sensationalist title, it is little more than confirmation that there is an internal political struggle going on in South Africa too.
This was a comment made by some member of the legislature, not an official statement the government itself. The government is still very much aligned with the BRICS axis. Not too long ago their president was saying South Africa intended to withdraw from the ICC.
Overall i wouldn’t pay too much attention to stories like this. Their purpose is to distract and to shore up the morale among the opponents of Russia at a time when things are going quite badly for the Kiev regime.
Thank you

Nice, ty.
And the reason they were warning Putin not to come in the first place was because they did not want to arrest him
Yeah that clearly looked like that, them being the 5th BRICS member is starting to look like one of the best decisions ever made so it’s no brainer they wouldn’t endanger that.
Especially now that countries all across the global south are practically scrambling to get into BRICS. Last i heard there were over a dozen countries eager to apply for membership as soon as possible.
It is clear which way the wind is blowing and a country would have to have either very stupid or very bribed/blackmailed leadership to side with the loser West against the rising tide of China and co.
Most of the global south nevertheless need to perform quite a delicate balancing act, being careful not too take steps that are too provocative because the US can still cause significant harm to weaker nations for now.
