We have a two party system effectively. So why does he not sign on and take his chances for leadership?

[utrickytrees] 08/7/2024 18:53

Eer think Sunak managed that without any help from Farage. 99% of Reform voters wouldn't have wasted the shoe leather going to the ballot box had Farage not stood.

Best yet that careful. You have to be a scientist to be Minister of State for Science. Ha ha ha. Edinburgh fringe stuff. The dept of science may have one or two already. I know lots of scientists and most of em wear odd socks. It used to be minister for universities. Would a degree in crested newt studies qualify him?
Does the transport minister have to be a bus driver or the minister of defence have a shotgun license? In what field does a Prime Minister have to qualified? Ha ha ha. Next slide pleas

DETAILED OVERVIEW OF MASSIVE RUSSIAN STRIKES ACROSS UKRAINE ON JULY 8, 2024

Support SouthFront


The Russian military launched several massive waves of strikes on Ukrainian military and industrial facilities across the country. The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed the strikes, claiming that ‘the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have launched a group strike with high-precision long-range weapons at the facilities of the military industry of Ukraine and the air bases of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in response to the attempts of the Kyiv regime to inflict damage to Russian energy facilities and economy’. The Russian military concluded that ‘the objectives of the strikes were achieved. The assigned targets were hit.’

Today’s Russian attack was one of the most massive ones on the Ukrainian rear regions in the recent months. There were several waves of strikes launched at night, in the morning and in the afternoon.

On the night of July 8, sirens sounded in all Ukrainian regions. According to local sources, as a result of the combined Russian attack, targets were hit in the central, southern and eastern parts of the country. At about 3 a.m. explosions thundered in the capital Kyiv, as well as in the Zhitomir, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, Odessa, Dnepropetrovsk, Sumy, Poltava, Kherson, Zaporozhie regions.

The massive strikes resumed in the morning. The Russian military used various drones and missiles, including Iskanders and Kinzhals, in order to identify the targets, reveal the areas of deployment of air defense forces, destroy the targets and confirm the damage. In the afternoon, more Russian strikes destroyed targets in the Dnepropetrovsk and Mykolaiv regions. The strikes are likely to continue all day long.

At 2 p.m. the Ukrainian Air Force officially declared the air defense forces destroyed 30 Russian missiles, including 1 hypersonic Kinzhal, despite the fact that the Ukrainian military has no means to shot down such missiles. The other destroyed missiles allegedly included:

3 Iskander-M missiles,
12 Kalibr missiles,
11 Kh-101 missiles,
3 Kh-59/69 missiles.
The blatant lies of the Ukrainian military are refuted by the horrific damage that it suffered.

At about midday, Ukrainian monitoring sources and footage from the spots in different Ukrainian regions confirmed at least 20 successful Russian strike

The capital of Ukraine came under one of the most massive attacks it suffered since the beginning of hostilities. Explosions there have been thundering all night long and continued during the day. The local residents forgot about the prohibition to film the strikes and any damage. The footage confirmed the destruction of numerous targets in different districts of the city. Local sources wrote about the strikes in the Solomenskiy, Dneprovsky and Goloseevsky districts of the capital, while the local authorities claimed that these were the wreckages of intercepted Russian missiles. The mayor officially confirmed at least one Russian strike.

One of the targets of the Russian attack was the Zhuliany airport, located on the southwestern outskirts of the city. The smoke was seen rising in the area. According to preliminary reports, at least one launcher of the US-made Patriot air defense system. The strikes definitely resulted in elimination of Western ‘military advisers’ who are always involved in operation of these precious US systems in Ukraine.

According to the footage from the city, another target was destroyed near the Lukyanovskaya subway station. The smoke confirmed that the strike likely reached the Luch Design Bureau, which is a major Ukrainian developer of components for the defense industry, or the nearby facilities of the Artem holding company, which is producing the missiles and other weapons. More strikes were reported in the area of the Antonov plant, which is producing aviation equipment.

The local authorities also confirmed the destruction of three energy substations in the Goloseevsky and Shevchenko districts of Kyiv. The power grid was damaged.

More targets destroyed by Russian strikes in the Ukrainian capital are likely to be revealed soon. The local residents reported that Russian UAVs were seen operating over the city during the strikes and after the attack.

As always, the Kyiv regime is trying its best to hide the truth. In order to gain the headlines and hide the real results of the attack and Russian success, Ukrainian propaganda launched a large media campaign aimed to again blame the Russian military for another fake attack on a civilian facility. According to Ukrainian lies, Russian missile struck a children’s hospital in the capital. The fake was immediately refuted by the footage, local reports and even claims of Ukrainian political officials. The video of the moment of the strike clearly showed an anti-aircraft missile very similar to NASAMS.

The Russian Ministry of Defense officially commented:

‘Statements by representatives of the Kyiv regime about Russia’s allegedly deliberate missile strike on civilian targets are absolutely untrue. Numerous published photos and video footage from Kyiv unequivocally confirm the fact of destruction due to the fall of a Ukrainian air defense missile’.

The Russian Ministry noted that Kyiv has been crying about the fake strikes on civilian facilities for years and always on the eve of ‘the meeting of patrons in NATO’. The goal of such provocations is to ensure further financing of the Kyiv regime and the continuation of the war to the last Ukrainian.’

Thus, there is a high possibility that the strike right near the hospital reportedly full of children could be not a mistake but a horrific provocation of the Kyiv regime.

More footage from the city showed the parts of Patriot missiles falling on the heads of civilians in the city.

Ukrainian/NATO air defense shamefully lost another battle against Russian drones and missiles. The capital Kyiv is the most protected city in the Ukrainian rear but the scale of destruction confirmed that no NATO systems can help the Ukrainian military.

Airfields
Precision Russian strikes inflicted more damage to several Ukrainian airfields. Explosions were reported in the areas of the Ozerny airfield in the Zhitomir region, Starokonstantinov in the Khmelnitsk region, Voznesensk in the Mykolaiv region, Mirgorod in the Poltava region, as well as Zhuliany in Kyiv mentioned before.

The past weeks were marked by a series of devastating Russian strikes on Ukrainian rear military airfields, including Mirgorod, as a result of which the Ukrainian Air Forces suffered heavy losses in numerous aircraft.

Today’s Russian simultaneous massive strikes on the airfields across the country are another clear example of impotence of the Ukrainian air defense to protect the strategically import military facilities. Meanwhile, NATO is assuring the public that it will deploy its precious F-16 on the Ukrainian territory.

Sumy region
A series of strikes were reported in the border Sumy region. According to local reports, a military column of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was destroyed on its way to the border areas. The Ukrainian military command was forced to send reinforcements to the Sumy region in response to the recent Russian ground operations in different border settlements; but their plan was thwarted by Russian strikes. As a result of the destruction of the column, the Ukrainian military suffered heavy losses in manpower and military equipment. Any details or footage are yet to confirm the reports.

Dnepropetrovsk region
Numerous strikes were recorder in different cities in the Dnepropetrovsk region. There were several waves at night, in the morning and in the afternoon. The footage confirmed several explosions in the capital of the region, the city of Dnipro. Local sources also reported strikes in the area of the local airfield.

The city of Krivyi Rih came under a massive attack. The local authorities confirmed the strikes, claiming the deaths of 11 people. One of the targets destroyed by Russian strikes was the building of the local Northern Mining and Processing Plant used by the Ukrainian military.

Donetsk People’s Republic
Russian missiles destroyed the hideout of the Ukrainian military in the settlements in the Donetsk People’s Republic that are still under Ukrainian control.

Another precision strike of Russian Kh-22 missiles destroyed facilities in the industrial zone in the northern part of the city of Pokrovsk (also known as Kirovograd). The footage published online confirmed a fire at the facility likely used as some workshops or warehouses by the Ukrainian military. According to Ukrainian reports, at least three people were killed as a result of the attack.

More Russian strikes destroyed targets in the cities of Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. The Novokramatorsky machine-building plant was reportedly struck. The smoke was spotted in the industrial area in Kramatorsk.

Kherson region
At night, Russian missile strikes thwarted Ukrainian attack on the Russian rear areas. The Ukrainian military supported by NATO reconnaissance and ‘military advisers’ likely planned to launch another wave of missile strikes on the Crimean peninsula. Preparing for the attack, the launchers with the US-made ATACMS missiles were heading to the launch sites. At that moment, they were spotted by Russian reconnaissance and immediately after their deployment, the launchers were reportedly struck by Russian Iskander missiles. As a result, the planned attack on the Russian territories was thwarted and the launchers with ATACMS missiles were destroyed.

The night was busy not only for the Ukrainian military but also for their colleagues in NATO.
Immediately after receiving information about the take-off of Russian strategic bombers, Poland lifted its aircraft into the air. This is already the routine of the local Air Force. The country’s military emphasized that this is necessary to ensure the security of Polish airspace.

‘Last night, there was intense activity of long-range aviation of the Russian Federation, in particular,because of the strikes on targets located in the west of Ukrainian territory. All necessary procedures to ensure the safety of Polish airspace have been activated, and the operational command of the Armed Forces is constantly monitoring the situation’, said the Polish Defense Ministry.

Meanwhile, reconnaissance aircraft of NATO countries were operating near the Ukrainian western border during the massive Russian strikes. A Boeing KC-135T Stratotanker tanker of the US Air Force was spotted operating near Rzeszow in Poland. It was presumably accompanying a reconnaissance aircraft, which had its radar transponders turned off. NATO reconnaissance was busy assessing the damage suffered in Ukraine, monitoring the results of Russian strikes and following the directions of flights of Russian missiles to support Ukrainian air defense.

In response to another humiliating defeat the Ukrainian and NATO militaries suffered as a result of the massive Russian attack, Zelensky called on an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council. He announced his plan during his stay in Warsaw. A few hours before the missile strikes on Kyiv he has traditionally left Ukraine. This time Zelensky arrived in Poland, where he signed an agreement on security guarantees. Zelensky has never been in Kyiv during the strikes on the Ukrainian capital.
