Ukraine Update, Day 45

There’s no ambiguity about Russia’s ability to successfully demilitarize Ukraine and deNazify its armed forces.

The sooner it declares mission accomplished, the better the outcome of its special military operation.

Conversely, the longer it continues, the more time if gives US/Western dark forces and their MSM co-conspirators to wage infowar propaganda on its operations — by making stuff up.

On Saturday, Russia’s Defense Ministry spokesman General Igor Konashenkov said Kiev is “preparing another provocation with the goal of accusing Russia of mass killings of civilians, adding:

As orchestrated by its higher power in Washington, Kiev’s Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) intends to use bodies of tortured to death Russian soldiers and others killed by Kiev’s forces to once again falsely “accus(e) Russia of mass killings of civilians.”

“The SBU will then stage the ‘neutralization’ of a ‘Russian reconnaissance unit’ at the Pushcha-Vodytsia forest, which will arrive in Irpin to ‘kill the witnesses of Russia’s war crimes.’ ”

Like always, MSM will fall all over themselves reporting the fabricated official narrative at the expense of truth and full disclosure.

As for rules of law, they’re whatever hegemon USA’s rules-based order says they are — no matter how false and hostile to peace.

Days earlier, Russia’s US envoy Anatoly Antonov warned that as long as Washington and its NATO vassals are able to resupply Ukraine’s war machine with weapons, munitions and related equipment, the risk of confrontation between the world’s dominant nuclear powers will remain dangerously high, adding:

Their transport cross-border to Ukraine makes their convoys “legitimate military target for (Russian) forces.”

As for conflict resolution, Russia’s aims remain demilitarization and deNazification of Ukraine, along with liberating Donbass entirely, keeping Ukraine nuclear-free and out of NATO as a member state, as well as recognition of Donbass sovereignty and Crimea as Russian territory.

Commenting on Ukraine’s missile attack on Kramatorsk with a Soviet-era Tochka-U missile by Kiev forces on Friday, a Russian Foreign Ministry statement said the following:

The Kiev regime “committed a similar barbarous crime on March 14, 2022 when a strike (a) Tochka-U missile at the center of Donetsk killed 17 people and wounded another 36.” 

“In both cases, the choice of the target was not random.”

As orchestrated and directed by hegemon USA, “the Kiev regime is striving to maximize numbers of civilian victims.”

“Their murders in Donbass have become standard practice for Ukrainian armed units in the past eight years.” 

“By cynically killing civilians in cold blood, Kiev is trying to blame Russia for its own crimes in order to discredit Moscow’s special military operation to defend the DPR and the LPR.”

“There is conclusive evidence that the UAF committed this crime.” 

“It is the UAF that has Tochka-U missiles in service and uses them.” 

“Fragments of this missile were found on the site of the tragedy.” 

“Such inhuman actions by the Kiev regime confirm that the goals of the special military operation to demilitarize and de-Nazify Ukraine are fully justified.”

“Kiev authorities will not escape responsibility” for their war crimes.

Separately on Friday, Sergey Lavrov said the following:

US/NATO regimes are “caught up in a Russophobic frenzy and seek to cancel everything relating to the Russian Federation.”

“Their Russophobic policies hold all other crises around the world hostage.” 

“They are forcing everyone to stop working with us in any association just to prove that they can impose their unilateral will.” 

“This is an irresponsible approach.”

“(N)one of this will succeed in throwing us off our stride.”

On Saturday, Russia’s Defense Ministry spokesman General Igor Konashenkov updated its military operation in Ukraine as follows, saying:

“Tactical aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces and missile troops destroyed 85 Ukrainian military facilities, including two command posts, three multiple rocket launchers, four self-propelled artillery pieces, a field ammunition depot, two logistics depots, four strongholds and a combat equipment storage site.”

Overnight, “high-precision air-launched missiles destroyed a major ammunition depot of the Ukrainian armed forces near the Novomoskovsk settlement in the Dnepropetrovsk region.”

Since Russia’s campaign began, Russian forces destroyed “127 planes, 98 helicopters, 425 unmanned aerial vehicles, 2,031 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 228 multiple rocket launchers, 880 field artillery pieces and mortars, as well as 1,932 military motor vehicles.”

Separately, Konashenkov explained  that Kiev is using foreign mercenaries.

Intercepted radio communications identified six foreign languages spoken by combatants besides Russian and Ukrainian.

Defending so-called “European values, (they came to) kill Slavs for American dollars while hiding behind a human shield of civilians.”

Last month, Russia’s General Staff estimated that around 6,600 mercenaries from 62 countries are operating in Ukraine — taking blood money to kill Russians.

Here’s an example of how worlds apart Russian and Nazified Ukrainian thugs operate.

Days earlier when Russia downed two Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopters, ones trying to evacuate Nazi Azov commanders from Mariupol,  surviving crew members were med-evacuated to a Russian field hospital for treatment.

Crew member Ivan Gavrilenko said he was brought to a medical facility and “provided with medical assistance.”

Russia “didn’t let me die. Thank you very much,” he said.

In stark contrast, when Russian forces are captured by Ukrainian Nazi thugs, they’re brutally tortured and killed.

Don’t expect US/Western MSM to diverge from their Russia bashing narrative to report the above or anything else positive about the country and its leadership.
