2024-09-19 | Things go Boom in Russia: Spectacular Strike on Vast Russian Arsenal
Silicon Curtain - A podcast by Jonathan Fink
2024-09-19 | Z-patriots are having a meltdown, because, once more things are going boom in Russia. And this time, it’s big. It’s huge in fact. Not only do we find out what it looks like to ignite roughly 30,000 tons of munitions, we get to see so-called Russian patriots lose their minds over how their government fails to protect strategically significant military sites over and over. ---------- The ecosystem of patriotic channels, that nonetheless must exist within the restrictions defined by the Russian regime, have been howling all morning and saying that Russia's defeat is almost inevitable. This is real hysteria, born of rage, frustration and fear. What really rubs salt into the wounds, is that it is clearly Ukrainians achieving this with their own weapons. Propagandists can try to pin it on NATO, but this really does not wash any more, given that it’s plain for all to see how timid, cautious and slow Western support really is. Everyone knows that for now, there is a ‘soft appeasement’ in place, meaning that western weapons cannot be used against airbases and launch sites that continue to rain death upon Ukrainian people. The 107th Arsenal of the Main Missile and Artillery Directorate of Russian armed forces was hit by drones. This may be the biggest blow to a Russian ammunition depot during the entire course of the war and resulted in an explosion that was visible from space. The fire engulfed the entire territory of the arsenal. The warehouses could store up to 30,000 tons of various ammunition – which does not mean that it was stocked to capacity when hit. We just don’t know how much stuff was onsite at the time. But munitions it could have contained, include 122 mm rocket munitions for Grad and 82 mm mortar shells. Missiles for S-300 and S-400, and for Iskanders could have been stored at the arsenal. A stock of North Korean KN 23 may also have been stored at this site. Shells from the 107th arsenal were directly delivered by rail to Kursk and Belgorod, and apparently, the Northern group of troops will feel the consequences of this strike, and the job of soldiers fighting against Ukraine’s incursions into Kursk may find their task is massively complicated by the loss of these ammunition reserves. ---------- Sources and recommended reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08IiEi3-uVI&t=588s ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
