The Kharkiv Palace Hotel is a 5-star hotel commonly used by international visitors.
I don’t think that word means what you think it means… Just a heads up, Russia, it’s not called “retaliation” when you’re the assholes who struck first. You’re just being a whiny little bitch because Ukraine didn’t roll over and take your bullying.
I’ve been impressed with the fight Ukraine has given Russia. Russia wanted to win in a few weeks and look how that turned out.
Technology alone doesn’t win a war. The spirit of the people is critical and Ukraine has shown that.
hours after … retaliation
I press X for doubt. With a strict top-down command chain I don’t believe the response could come that fast. My conspiracy monkey brain thinks that’s the strike on Belgorod was to prevent that planned strike from Belgorod, a part of a long-going shelling, rather than the other way. They said they struck mil targets there, so maybe that was the point, and maybe they prevented some of the shelling of Kharkiv. If you turn it that way, it seems more sequential.
Russia shells a smaller country and kills dozens of civilians. And then has the balls to complain that people might be upset and relies on a sense of both sides being bad bullshit.
They are like the bully who hits a student but when the teachers come running over pretend they got hit worse back. And then still bully you more when the adults backs are turned. Except with much more actual murder.
