This 'accidental' fire on a Russian air base looks serious on 11:16 - Aug 11 by Guthrum | See my reply to Gordon. Moscow, having annexed the region, regards it as part of the state and would be quick to throw accusations at the USA, given the latter supplied long-range artillery to Ukraine on the basis it would not be used to hit targets within Russia. They haven't so I suspect it wasn't HIMARS. |
We really shouldn't care what Russia say though. It's not part of Russia, annexation isn't a legitimate and legal way to gain dominion over territory. SB |  | |  |

The USA has been very public that targets within Ukraine are fine, so none of that is relevant. |  | |  |
