Moscow: "Nothing to see here. Normal industrial accident. Nothing to do with the Special Military Operation. Nothing."

A dollar spent for Ukraine is a dollar well spent.

It doesn't matter how many times you tell Russian's not to smoke around explosives. They just stare at you and puff away.

I hope the birds in the area are okay.

It was not a drone attack against the location where Russia made drones, it was a "special firework operation"!

[krisfrederick]

Don't throw stones when you live in a glass Kremlin, Putin. Slava Ukraini 💙💛

[DoubleDogDare]

They make it sound as if it was a fireworks factory. Private videos show burned shell casings scattered everywhere in the area. They were making ammo and small rockets in that plant and there was another apparent "smoking accident".

I hope everyone understands that is very important for the world peace that Russia looses in Ukraine and Russian criminal government collapses! There fore we need to support Ukraine for as long as it takes!

Ukraine needs massive air support. We need a massive air assault like Desert Storm.

Dear Mr. Vladimir Putin : Tank you for being the single best arms and weapons provider to Ukraine whenever scared invading ORC's decide to cut and run. Tank you, Vladimir Putin's also for being the single best NATO/OTAN RECRUITER with once neutral Sweden and Finland joining NATO/OTAN. We could never have accomplished these achievements without your input and for this we tank you from bottoms of our hearts.

Sincerely yours, the FREE and Independent & Sovereign people of Ukraine. SLAVA 🇺🇦 UKRAINE

I find it really weird Putin and Russia thinking there wouldn't be any repercussions or retaliatory blow back from Putin's unprovoked attack upon Ukraine.

This is not a Stalemate in the least. Ukraine has cut Logistics line in Crimea in all but 2 places, making it difficult if not impossible to supply their troops. They’ve made bridges & roads impassable for heavy armor trucks & tanks. Two units have crossed the Dnipro river and come through Ruzzian defensive lines. Their progress is slowed by insufficient artillery & the lack of jets to cover their troops. Get them the F-16’s Now and watch these brave, courageous, tough and patriotic people take back their sovereign lands. Slava Ukraini Heroyam!
🇺🇦👊🏼🇺🇸💪🏼🇪🇺❤️💙💛✌🏼

"It wasn't a drone. It was a warehouse full of fireworks. Cuz, we keep those at our optics factories".😂

[jannibal]

A pyrotechnics warehouse (what the heck is this doing there anyway?) on the same grounds as an alleged factory for Russian military optical and night-vision gear, and it all blew up just due to an "oopsie" by somebody violating a rule inside the compound? Yeah, right.

It's good to see that business is booming in Ruzzia.

[SaharaPowerLove]

Yes, yes, yes, victory to Ukraine. Love to the USA. 🇺🇲🇺🇦💙💛❤

[philipstaff]

The US needs to stand strong for World Peace.

[kevlar]

Give me a second and I'll find the world's smallest violin. Then I will play a sad sad song for Russia a country that started a war to realize it was the third most powerful military in Ukraine

[cubsfanbigmike]

I love how they immediately know the cause before the fires are even out
