The submarine launched missile attacks on Kyiv targets
Last night, the Russian Armed Forces launched a massive missile strike on Ukraine.
As Avia.pro reports, citing informed sources, missiles attacked strategically important targets in a number of oblasts of Ukraine.
The attacks were carried out from the sea, using submarines rather than ships.
It is known that a submarine of the Russian Black Sea Fleet launched Kaliber missiles at targets in the Nikolaev oblast.
In addition, strategic missile carriers Tu-95MS of the Russian Aerospace Forces, as part of two groups, carried out attacks on Ukrainian Armed Forces facilities in Ukrainian oblasts.
One of the groups of missile carriers sent its missiles in the direction of the Poltava oblast through the Sumy oblast.
The airbase in Mirgorod [Poltava oblast] was under threat.
Soldiers from the second group of the Russian Aerospace Forces launched missiles through the southern part of the Nikolaev oblast, directing them towards the Kirovograd oblast.
Krivoy Rog was also hit, with two missiles fired at it. Two more were sent via the Kherson oblast to the Nikolaev oblast.
15 counterattacks of the Ukrainian army were repelled in the DPR, as well as in the LPR.
In one day, the Ukrainian army lost more than 1,000 soldiers, three tanks, including one Leopard, an Enclave electronic warfare station, an M113 armored personnel carrier made in the United States, four self-propelled guns, including a Krab, eight howitzers, seven armored vehicles, and 13 vehicles.
The Russian Armed Forces hit military-industrial complex facilities in Ukraine
This happened in response to Kyiv’s attempts to attack Russian power facilities.
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the strike was carried out using long-range precision weapons, including Kinzhal missiles and drones.
Goals achieved, objects hit.
Kyiv's ability to produce military products and transfer Western weapons and equipment to the contact line was significantly reduced.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces' UAV production workshop and ammunition depots were also destroyed.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered heavy losses in the DPR
The Ukrainian Armed Forces lost several hundred military personnel near Novopokrovsky in the DPR.
This happened due to the lack of defensive structures.
TASS writes about this, citing local law enforcement agencies.
According to the agency's source, Novopokrovsky has an unfavorable situation for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
“They probably did not have time to build a defense in the Novopokrovsky area and are suffering very heavy losses there. Now there are already several hundred people,” the law enforcement agencies told the media.
In the Orekhovsky direction, Ukrainian Armed Forces barrage detachments shoot mobilized
Militants of the SBU barrier detachments shoot mobilized Ukrainians.
This situation is observed in the Orekhov direction, when Ukrainian Armed Forces fighters are trying to retreat.
This was stated by the head of the “South” battalion of the guard, Major Mussa Iblaev.
as quoted by RIA Novosti.
“If they move back, then the highest penalty will be taken against them - this is execution, and not only they will suffer, but also their family members will suffer,” the military man said.
Earlier, TopNews wrote that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are still holding out at the expense of Poroshenko’s “defense line.”

The Russian military hit a Patriot air defense system and radar with an Iskander missile
Military correspondent Rudenko: The Russian Armed Forces hit a Patriot air defense system and radar with an Iskander missile [The Iskander is hypersonic, can’t be shot down. We are wasting our money sending Patriot systems!]
The Russian Armed Forces (RF Armed Forces) struck the Patriot anti-aircraft missile system (SAM) and the AN/MPQ-65 radar station of Ukraine in Zaporozhye with a strike from the Iskander operational-tactical missile system. War correspondent Andrei Rudenko reports this on his Telegram channel.
It is noted that the equipment transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) was hit in the area of the village of Gulyaypole in the Zaporozhye oblast.
Earlier it was reported that the Russian Armed Forces destroyed the radar station of the S-300 anti-aircraft missile system (SAM) and the P-19 Danube two-coordinate station. In addition, a fuel depot of the joint logistics center of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was hit.

Aftermath: Injustice, Torture and Death in Detention In North-East Syria
The principal partner of the US government in north-east Syria, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), is engaged in the large-scale and systematic violation of the rights of more than 56,000 people in its custody. Amnesty International concludes the US government has likely violated its obligations under Common Article 1 of the Geneva Conventions to ensure the autonomous authorities’ respect for international humanitarian law. The US likely breached these obligations where they participated in joint operations or provided intelligence to the SDF and affiliated security forces that led to the detention of people for perceived IS affiliation. In these situations, the US would have been aware that individuals detained by the security forces would be subjected to violations documented in this report.
by Amnesty International, APRIL 17, 2024
EXCERPTS:
Men, women and children in the detention facilities run by the SDF and affiliated security forces are being arbitrarily and indefinitely detained and forcibly disappeared. Many of these detainees are held in inhumane conditions and have been subjected to torture or other ill-treatment, including severe beating, stress positions, electric shocks and gender-based violence. In one of these facilities, Sini, detainees face unrelenting brutality: routine physical abuse; humiliation; and the deprivation of food, water, medical care and other basic needs. This has led to the death of hundreds of people. In another facility, Panorama, men and boys are suffering from a virulent, untreated outbreak of tuberculosis, which in 2023 was causing the death, on average, of one or two detainees each week.
People held in the two detention camps run by the autonomous authorities, Al-Hol and Roj, are being arbitrarily and indefinitely detained in inhumane and life-threatening conditions. Women and their children are being forcibly separated from each other. Foreign national boys are being removed from the camps when they reach adolescence and transferred to detention facilities, including youth “rehabilitation” centres, which they have little prospect of leaving. Women transferred from the camps to detention facilities for alleged crimes or misconduct are often forced to leave their children behind, without time to make arrangements for them.
This detention system, created in the aftermath of IS’s crimes under international law, is violating the rights of tens of thousands of people. It is also providing no justice for IS’s atrocities. Among those held in the detention system are IS victims. Scores if not hundreds of Yezidi victims of IS atrocities are among those detained. A large proportion of other detained women and girls are victims of forced marriage to IS members, and many detained boys and young men are victims of child recruitment by IS. The detention system has also failed to deliver justice and accountability for the victims and survivors of IS’s crimes, including war crimes, crimes against humanity and acts against the Yezidi community in Iraq the UN concluded amounted to genocide. Not a single person held in this detention system has been held accountable for these atrocity crimes.
The US government and other members of the military coalition established to defeat IS have played a critical role in establishing and supporting this detention system, but have failed to ensure that this system complies with globally accepted human rights standards.

Chandellor Scholtz is now officially brain dead. After allowing Biden to blow up Nord Stream, German industry’s only lifeline to cheap Russian gas, the very demented chancellor played the tough guy offering Ukraine more weapons — even though his country was the only European country with sub-zero growth last year. The demented Scholtz actually believes he can replace the cheap fuel with solar and wind, which invariably require subsidies because of their low efficiency. Nothing can save German industry now, but Scholtz refuses to accept reality.
Newsletter - The Swiss PR event for Ukraine
(Own report) – Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz is urging the leading countries of the Global South to take part in the planned Ukraine conference in Switzerland and is once again calling on them to take a stand against Russia. It is necessary to enforce "that Russia must withdraw troops," explains Scholz; the Global South should now "play an important role" in this. The Ukraine conference on Lake Lucerne, announced for mid-June, is based on the so-called peace formula of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Selenskyj, which in fact calls for a total surrender by Russia and is therefore not suitable as a basis for serious negotiations on a ceasefire. According to Kiev Foreign Minister Dymtro Kuleba, the Swiss conference is primarily intended to commit as many states as possible to Ukraine's [unrealistic] positions. The aim is to build up diplomatic pressure due to a lack of military pressure potential. Several states are now distancing themselves from Switzerland's machinations and are pushing for serious ceasefire talks, according to the Italian Foreign Minister. The President of Slovakia calls for “mobilizing diplomacy.”

It’s all encapsulated right here:
Despite this agreement, the actual goals of the invasion appear unclear. Israel’s stated goals don’t reflect the reality on the ground, which has led analysts to conclude that the true goal of the Rafah invasion is to finish the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, and perhaps presage future attacks that will attempt to restore the sense of deterrence that was forever shattered on October 7.

The Israeli army has repeatedly used white phosphorus on civilians in Gaza and Lebanon since the start of the war. Rights groups have called for an urgent investigation after several Palestinian corpses were found vaporized in Gaza, suggesting Israel’s possible use of illegal thermobaric weapons to target civilians.
Oh, but not to fear. CBN’s Gordon Robertson doesn’t believe the Holy Israelites would ever do such a thing. And if they did, it would be God’s will, so not to worry.

According to Gordon Robertson’s CBN, those nice IDF fellas provided a “safe” haven for Rafah residents who wish to avoid the carpet bombing by those same nice IDF fellas.

Here is what happened to Gazans {the folks in the white sheets) who sought refuge in a declared safe haven:
They believed the Israeli “safe haven” tale
When Gordon Robertson hears this kind of news, he gently reminds his flock that the news came from those brown-skinned devils in Qatar who speak Arabic, the devil’s language. Of COURSE it can’t be true because Israelis are God’s people.

On April 30, a mob of Zionist vigilantes descended onto UCLA’s Palestine Solidarity Encampment, besieging it and waging horrific violence against students for hours throughout the night. On May 1, UCLA called in the LAPD to clear the encampment by force, unleashing yet another brutal attack on students before the blood from the previous night had a chance to dry. On May 2, UCLA Chancellor Gene Block hosted a town hall for UCLA alumni during which he glossed over the horrific events that took place on campus under his watch.

As the anti-war movement bumper sticker said years ago:
"If You're not outraged;
You're not paying attention".
To my fellow Americans:
Be careful what you wish for:
The Globalist Militarist Cannabilists have You in their crosshairs as the disintegrating U.S. economy militates the Banksters to take their "Pound of Flesh" from U.S. consumers to save their Dying $$$ Empire.
