Russia Says It Destroyed a Stockpile of Western Weapons in Odessa

If only Azov could have gotten these weapons.

They would have been able to bust out of the underground tunnels they’re locked in and marched straight to Moscow.

Russian forces have destroyed a logistics terminal in Odessa that held a large batch of foreign weapons, Moscow said on Saturday amid its ongoing military offensive in Ukraine. However, the city’s authorities claimed that its air defense group destroyed two missiles but that another four hit a military target and residential buildings, leading to victims. It was not immediately clear if the civilian buildings were hit as a result of attempts by Ukrainian forces to strike down the missiles initially aimed at a military target.

According to Russian military spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov, in the afternoon, “high-precision long-range air-launched missiles” hit a logistics terminal located on a military airfield near Odessa, where “a large batch of foreign weapons received from the United States and European countries was stored.”

Russia has repeatedly warned NATO against sending arms to Ukraine and stated that it would consider arms convoys to be legitimate military targets.

The Ukraine is of course claiming that Russia purposefully attacked an apartment building in order to kill children out of pure mean-spiritedness.

Every Ukrainian statement is basically “this is a recording.”

What it looks like is that the Ukrainians tried to shoot down the missiles headed for the Odessa weapons depot, and bombed their own apartment building.

Of course, Russia could have accidentally hit a residential building near the weapons depot. But claiming “Russia purposefully attacked an apartment building while also bombing a shipment of foreign weapons” is so goofy and unbelievable that it’s just difficult to even process that the media and government officials would say it.

What percentage of these billions of dollars of weapons are going to reach Ukrainian troops that are trapped in Donbass? It can’t be even 5%.

There is also the issue of the fact that they are sending weapons that the Ukrainians are not trained to use – into a warzone.

So these soldiers are going to be re-retrained during combat?

Frankly, this whole “weapons shipment” agenda looks like a money laundering and arms trafficking scam. I wrote about that yesterday, but today I have an illustration I just thought of:
