Ukraine war: Fires tear through Odesa after Russian air strikes

At least three people have been wounded in Russian airstrikes on the Ukraine port city of Odesa, officials have said.

Oleh Kiper, the region’s governor, said air defences had destroyed 15 drones and eight Kalibr missiles, but falling debris had caused fires to break out.

He said: “Debris damaged a dormitory of one of the educational institutions, a residential building and a supermarket.

“The blast wave knocked out windows in several buildings, damaged cars parked nearby. Fires broke out at three facilities.”

Three supermarket workers were reportedly injured in the attack, two of whom were sent to hospital.

Ukraine’s armed forces in the south posted a video and photographs of firefighters battling a large blaze. The images have not been independently verified by The Telegraph.

Where's the news for Ukraine's success in the counteroffensive? It's far more important than Russia's 89th missile attack on Ukraine.

While the Russians seem a little tied down in Ukraine hiding in their trenches behind their minefields, someone left the heartland of Russia open to attack? - perhaps it was an oversight - confusion of war - the overconfidence effect - strike where your enemy is weak - destroy him

Arise, O LORD, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice.

He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows.

He who is pregnant with evil and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment.

He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made.

The trouble he causes recoils on himself; his violence comes down on his own head.

We all need to wake up. We are living in the last days when the prophecies of the Book of Revelation are fulfilled.
The four angels were released, ready at the hour, month, day, and hour, to kill a third of mankind.
The number of horsemen is twenty thousand, and I have heard their number.
In this vision, I saw the horses and those who sat on them, with breastplates the color of fire, purple, and sulfur, and the heads of the horses were like lions' heads, and fire and smoke and brimstone came out of their mouths.
By these three plagues, a third of mankind was killed by the fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths.
Those who were not killed by these plagues did not repent of the deeds of their hands, but worshiped demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, wood and stone, which cannot see, hear, or walk.
And they did not repent of their murders, their sorceries, their fornications, or their thefts.

The great tribulation will begin now.

Russians are attacking Ukrainian weapons depots and army barracks while Zelenskyy is attacking residential buildings with anti-aircraft missiles with long expired shelf life. Zelenskyy already hit Poland, Romania (a jet and a chopper were downed, 8 servicemen killed), Moldova, Belarus, numerous residential buildings and at least two children’s playgrounds inside Ukraine with these missiles. Western missiles which are sent there are also with either expired shelf life or very close to expiration date . It’s mindboggling how many buildings were hit and civilians killed (including two hapless Polish farmers) with this ongoing criminal lunacy of Zelenskyy regime. The chance of downing Russian missile is negligible in comparison with a risk of an accident with numerous civilian casualties. To give weapons to this war criminal Zelenskyy is like giving matches and gasoline to a serial arsonist.

So many russian bots, maybe now they get 15 rubles for comment instead of 10, so working harder.😂

This is a mistake. Odesa ought to end up a free port usable by both sides.

War exists because the universe is made up of two opposing forces: reception and bestowal. When these forces do not enter into a balance, then they short circuit and try to destroy each other. That mutual effort of each side to eliminate the other is war.

The root cause of war is in the clash of these opposite forces of nature: reception and bestowal. That clash of spiritual forces gives rise to wars that unfold in our material world.

Therefore, stopping war at its source requires developing a regulating sense that has the ability to bestow above our innate force of reception, which are our self-serving desires that aim solely at absorbing into ourselves. In the language of Kabbalah, that bestowing sense is called a “screen” (Heb. “Masach”). Through this new regulating sense, we can acquire a state of positive and balanced human connection.

That is the key to a war-free, harmonious and peaceful existence.
