Almost 90 bombs were dropped in one region in just 24 hours.
Russia unleashed an unprecedented bombardment in southern Ukraine overnight in what local officials described as a “massive attack” in the conflict which has continued to rage even as the international community’s attention has moved to the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
The Ukrainian Internal Affairs Ministry on Monday morning said Russia dropped at least “87 aerial bombs on populated areas of the Kherson region - the largest number for all time.” At least eight people were also injured in other Russian strikes carried out in the Odessa region further to the west on Sunday night.
Thanks for the articles!
Between this and finding out that there’s natural gas under Gaza I’m getting suspicious
Wait until you hear it’s not “under Gaza” but under the sea, in what would be Gaza’s “economic influence” area… and that the Palestinian Authority has been in talks with Egypt to extract it, while Israel has been in talks with US corporations.
The gas is expected to be worth about 400 billion USD.
Didn’t know all those details, except I was under the impression that EU and Israeli companies were the ones trying to extract the gas, the US wasn’t directly involved in that from the few articles I’ve seen about it.
Israel, US, Europe would always share the gas (through protected and exclusive trades). These parties all win when one of them wins. The same goes for Islamic States and the Arabic League.
Israel was a perfect and unfortunate point to disrupt an otherwise closed up and profitable region for the powers in the middle east.
