Published

on



A drone strike has caused a massive fire at an oil depot in Russian-controlled Crimea, local officials say.

Video on social media shows smoke and flames billowing from the facility in Sevastopol, Crimea’s main city.

Firefighters are at the scene. No-one was hurt in the strike, the Moscow-appointed regional governor said.

On Friday Russia launched a wave of air strikes in cities across Ukraine, killing at least 25 people. It was the first such attack in months.

    Zelensky and Trudeau applaud former Nazi divisional fighter who fought against the Soviet Union
    For the parade shit in Moscow after drinking a very laxative and oily cabbage soup? It is a fact that the Nazis captured in North Africa and sent to the United States arrived giving Nazi salutes and were treated better than many African Americans. At the parade in Moscow, the Nazis did not dare to salute.

    The Moscow Times identified the tanker as the chemical tanker SIG, which is currently under US sanctions for supplying jet fuel to Russian forces in Syria. Russian outlets claimed that the incident did not result in an oil spill. A Russian milblogger claimed that the Ukrainian naval drone intentionally targeted the SIG’s engine room because targeting the stern creates the least likelihood of an oil spill and is where the most expensive and difficult-to-repair equipment is located. The nature and location on the ship of the attack suggest that Ukrainian forces intended to disable the ship without generating significant ecological consequences.

    [The attack on the Russian oil tanker is the mind of the pentagon, the Biden administration which have voiced for two year that they want to destroy the promising economy of Russia, they also have said they want to destroy the promising Chinese economy. ]

    YouTube is America's puppet propaganda machinery which shows only the Ukrainian side, not a single video in you tube shows the Russian side. In every video Ukrainian soldiers killed Russian soldiers, destroying their tank and fighter plane, bombarding Russian trenches. BBC News also doing the same thing you people are don't show ground reality for this reason your credibility goes down like Pakistan.

    The war between Russia and Ukraine are taking place due to the conspiracy of USA. Under the level of helping America are destroying Ukraine and reduces the power of Russia and weakens Russia economically. Due to war people die. Actually America is a killer. A terrorist country. They kill the people of Afghanistan, Iraq ,Syria . They destroy the countries.They add oil on fire that is their foreign policy. In future there will come a time when America will destroy for their sins.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.

Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
