There has been a large air and naval kamikaze drone attack on the main naval base of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Novorossiysk by Ukraine.

At least 35 explosions have been heard. Damage has been confirmed, and more information about the attack on the port is being clarified.

The Novorossiysk railway station got hit. They write about the damage to the Novorossiysk fuel oil terminal and the Transnafta terminal.

Massive attack on the port of Novorossiysk by Ukrainian drones from both sea and air. What remained of the Russian Black Sea fleet was largely stashed away in this port. The eyewitness yells "They blew up the port!"

Port of Novorossiysk on the Black Sea coast in Krasnodar Krai is a very target-rich location. Railroad hub, fuel depots, shipyards, and of course many Black Sea Fleet ships at anchor. Ukraine coordinated a massive attack using both naval drones + air drones.

As a result of the strike by kamikaze drones, a substation was damaged, which led to a partial blackout in Sevastopol and surrounding areas. In Novorossiysk, the target of the attack was a port and an oil depot; the attack caused power outages in some areas. Interestingly, the enemy in Sevastopol carried out a combined attack, using both sea and air drones simultaneously. Also concerning is the number of drones used in both attacks. According to local residents, these attacks are unprecedented; such powerful attacks have never been observed before. This indicates that the enemy has accumulated a significant stock of drones and is trying to break through the air defense with massive attacks.”

The attack on the port of Novorossiysk began at around 3am, and is reportedly still going strong after nearly 2 hours.

Massive Ukrainian drone attack on Crimea causes power cutoffs in Sevastopol
In images taken by US satellite imaging company BlackSky and space technology firm Maxar, two jets can be seen burned out on the main flight line at Belbek, in addition to a third parked on a protective embankment. The satellite images also show a destroyed building nearby and another which has taken significant damage.

Mikhail Razvozhaev, the Russian-appointed governor of Sevastopol, said on Telegram Friday that the Russians “successfully repelled a massive enemy attack on Sevastopol.”

I must say that I just read this part from the OP and I have to say that this is not justice, and more reason why there is no equality and justice in this world. I said that because I've seen enough of the same cases being delivered different judgements. So, what is the equality in that? If there were to be another judge in this case in the OP, the agent would pay the whole money, and again, if there were to be yet another judge, the agent would pay the whole money plus some damages that would cover the inconvenience, legal fees and others.

For this, I do not see the judge's verdict in this case as good, it is not just convenient with me. How can someone pay a whole sum and a judge order the agent who was supposed to pay the whole sum to pay half of the money, that's very bad. This means that the agent will actually pocket the remaining half of that money. This is no justice and it is even annoying me to say the truth. No one has access to the claiming and collection of that won money except the winner and the agent, and when the winner does not collect the money as the agent could not show any proof that he has called the money before, then it is the agent who claimed the money.

There was no mention of a hacking issue as well, so it is the agent who should have provided the full money no matter what since the headquarters has cleared it already.

My first experience with CoinRoyale was a doozy but after a day or two, I can easily navigate the website without having to figure stuff out, it's not per se an experience on gaming though, it's just that it's difficult to navigate the website but once you get used to it, you're good to go. Their games are pretty good too but they need to upgrade their betting feature because I find it disturbingly lacking that there's not a lot of them in there that I can bet on, makes the option of betting there less attractive, their bonus is something else entirely though, love that you can cancel it anytime if a new/better bonus were to arrive.

As for Donald Trump...  I can't believe that Sleepy Joe Biden is actually going to debate him.  As humorous as it will be, I seriously think Biden's handlers are taking his elder abuse to new levels.  Trump is going to make him look like an idiot all night and that's if Joe can survive whatever meth'd up concoction they inject him with to keep him awake for a few hours.

Personally, I think UK should send troops over there...after all, they wanted Ukrainians to fight instead negotiating

Mobilizing 2 millions in 40 millions people country looks nice and easy on paper, but reality is a bit different. From these 40 millions we should exclude women, children and elderly people. Then there is at least few millions people who left country during war and also people who alredy serving in army or died. So, actual number that you can potentially mobilize is so much smaller.
Why there issituations like in video above. In cities which are more far away from front line like Lviv, Kyiv, Odesa people are trying to live normal life. They are going no night clubs, pubs, cinema, concerts and etc. These who had motivation to defend country went fighting long time ago, others don't want to change their normal life, leave families and etc go to trenches, and drones and artillery flying above their heads. They want to continue living normally as they used before war, but they think that others have to fight for them. Don'y know what solutions for this problem is.

The prosecution should be done calling witnesses this week.  DJ could very well be on the stand next week.

Also, I'm hoping Trump does what he said this one time and debates Joe.   Taylor Swift should host it.  

Is procreation really necessary?


Necessary or not, it's fun. Whoever put this whole thing together was so interested in having us procreate that, He made it to be extremely enjoyable... at least to attempt it.

FIRMS, or Fire Information for Research Management System, is a NASA-administered worldwide satellite data-gathering project that identifies and tracks the progress of major fires worldwide. A Kyiv Post check of the OSINTechnical claim found fire imagery near Belbek, possibly at three locations.

Russian milbloggers widely reported MGM-140 ATACMS missiles had been used in the strikes and identified the cluster munition as an M74 bomblet, a baseball-sized explosive used by US weapons manufacturers for some cluster munitions. Anti-airfield/aircraft versions of ATACMS missiles known to have been delivered to Ukraine can carry close to 1,000 M47 bomblets.

The Russian-installed governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhaev, said in a post to messaging app Telegram that Russian air defenses had "repelled a massive attack" on Sevastopol, including several missiles around the Belbek airfield.

In a separate statement late on Wednesday, Razvozhaev said the Russian military had "repelled" another Ukrainian attack on the port city.

How would Trump gain at least to a point my respect? If Ruzzia were to give a meaningful chunk of he Ukrainian land they have taken. ...

Sometimes I do wonder what is the need for reproduction when there are so many kids suffering out there for survival, many are ophans, some have parents but their parents couldn't afford to take adequate care of them due to poverty and some are just helpless roaming round the streets without anyone to help them. It is really necessary to reproduce? instead of adopting some of this helpless children and take good care of them and make them to understand that life is not that difficult as they feel because most of this children grow up with the mentality that the society is unkind to them, they become unhappy and feel so inferior of themselves while growing up, some have mental issues due to the unfortunate situations they have found themselves.

 Is there a way to help this children grow and become better persons in the future instead of bringing more children to this world.

Former President Donald Trump has voluntarily dismissed the $500 million federal lawsuit he brought against his former attorney Michael Cohen, according to court records.

Cohen's attorney E. Danya Perry said in a statement to  The Messenger that Trump dropped the case to avoid facing her questioning.

To start off, Todd Blanche introduced himself to Cohen, saying that although they’d never met “you went on TikTok and called me a crying little s—t” after the trial started.

“Sounds like something I would say,” Cohen deadpanned before a prosecutor could finish objecting to the question.

Blanche also quoted Cohen saying on TikTok in late April — a week into the trial — that he hoped Trump “goes right into that little cage where he belongs, like a f—ing animal.”
It was a far cry from the praise Cohen heaped on his former boss in happier times, before the so-called Trump ‘fixer” went to prison on federal charges including campaign finance violations tied to the $130,000 hush money payment to adult entertainer Stormy Daniels.

lanche, in a less fractious exchange, reminded Cohen that he had previously called Trump “a good man,” someone “who cares deeply about this country,” “tells it straight,” “speaks from the heart,” wants “to make this country great again,” and has flawless memory.

“At that time I was knee-deep into the cult of Donald Trump, yes,”

Do you love it now?” Blanche asked. “Yes, but less,” Cohen replied.

“But to keep the loyalty and to do the thing that he had asked me to do,” Cohen continued, with the “he” referring to Trump, “I violated my moral compass and I suffered the penalty, as has my family.”

Cohen said he served more than 13 months in a federal prison in upstate New York, including time in solitary confinement, and the remainder of his 36 month sentence under home confinement. “I remain even today, still, on supervised release,” he said. He said he paid more than $1 million in back taxes and fines.

He said that before the war Russia would typically splash around 3-4% of its annual gross domestic product on defense but now it could be anywhere between 8% and 10%.

Revenues from the oil and gas sector were 41% lower in the January-to-July period than in the same period in 2022.

That means the government is having to borrow more. Government debt, currently at 14.9% of GDP, is set to rise.

Other readers please know - when russians capture ukrainians, they torture them till they cooperate with captors, say on camera every unimaginable bullshit they are given to tell. This already happened in 1960s with POWs in Korea and Vietnam.

Last two years I lived more in Ukraine than in my home country. I know the truth.

Shoigu is promoted

"On the question about NATO's role in reconstruction of Ukraine after the war. The first thing I will say is that first of all, you need to ensure that Ukraine prevails. Because unless Ukraine prevails, there's nothing to reconstruct in the free and independent Ukraine. So the most immediate, the most important task now is to help Ukraine with military support as NATO Allies and NATO do. We need to sustain that. We need to make the support more predictable and more robust, and we are going to hopefully make decisions on that not least at the NATO Summit in July," Stoltenberg said.

He noted that the future recovery of Ukraine will be a very costly process. In this context, preventing destruction is cheaper than subsequent recovery. Therefore, the more capabilities the allies provide to Ukraine so that it can defend itself, the less effort will be required for the nation’s post-war recovery.

“Every air defense missile we can provide Ukraine will actually mean less damage, less destruction. And then also less need for reconstruction after the war. We must be able to help Ukraine prevail because it's important for Ukrainians. But also because every day this war drags on, of course, the more destruction and the more expensive, the more resource demanding it will be to do reconstruction afterwards," the head of the Alliance emphasized.

"The sooner Ukraine can prevail, the sooner this war can end with just a lasting peace where Ukraine prevails as a sovereign independent nation in Europe," Stoltenberg added.

Interesting watching even you pivot from back to borders of 1991 to would be nice to get just a meaningful chunk back. Biggest tragedy is that it was on the table during the negotiations before Johnson torpedoed them now looks like too much Russian blood has been spilled for that to be acceptable, that's the problem with raising the stakes.



Question you? Now why would anyone even think of that? We of course just blindly trust any numbers that you write without any citations.

Now back to the real world

With such news, Ukraine could use a lot of damage control right about now to keep morale from collapsing.

I have already expressed my opinion on this matter a little higher, I think this is a regular diversionary strike in order to force Syrsky to transfer reserves from other sectors of the front and accordingly weaken them (because he has no free combat-ready reserves). Syrsky now has a very difficult situation - he is forced to do what he does not want, because he cannot simply ignore the attack of the "North" group.

Regarding human losses and a small number of armored vehicle losses. The assault troops of the "North" group consist of "Storm Z" fighters - these are former prisoners who entered into a contract with the Ministry of Defense. In fact, these are suicide bombers; they are not entitled to armored vehicles. But the “North” group has powerful support of about a thousand artillery barrels (this is more than in the Avdeevsky direction), plus aviation support with guided bombs. Therefore, their raid will continue successfully with further losses of territory in Ukraine until Syrsky transfers at least a couple of brigades here to stop them. Then a strike will follow on the weakened section of the front. Wait, this will happen within a month, before the peace conference in Switzerland.
