Moscow details massive strikes against Ukrainian infrastructure

The barrage destroyed NATO-supplied weapons and undermined Kiev’s industrial potential, the Defense Ministry has said

 

The Russian military carried out a massive wave of strikes on Ukrainian military and energy infrastructure on Friday thatsuccessfully disrupted Kiev’s ability to produce new weapons and ammunition, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said.

 

In a statement, the Russian Defense Ministry said that the barrage, using high-precision long-range weapons and drones, targetedUkraine’s energy facilities, the military-industrial complex, railway junctions, arsenals, and deployment areas where the Ukrainian military and foreign mercenaries were present.

 

“As a result of the strike, industrial enterprises producing and repairing weapons, military equipment and ammunition have been disorganized,” officials claimed.

 

The attacksalso destroyed foreign military equipmentprovided to Kiev by its NATO backers, the ministry noted. It added that they disrupted the transfer of Ukrainian troops to the front line while hitting the regions where troops and foreign mercenaries were recovering after battle.

 

“All the objectives of the massive strike have been accomplished,” the statement stressed.

 

Earlier in the day, Ukrainian officials reported that Moscow had launched one of its most powerful attacks yet on energy infrastructure, causing widespread blackouts. One of the strikes severely damaged the Dnepr hydroelectric power plant in the Kiev-controlled city of Zaporozhye, according to the head of Ukrhydroenergo.

 

The Russian Defense Ministry also said that over the past week alone Moscow had carried out 49 high-precision long-range strikes, including with Kinzhal hypersonic missiles, on Ukrainian targets.The attacks, it noted came in retaliation for Kiev’s repeated shelling of border regions, as well as its attempted incursions into Russian territory.

 

The strikes, it added, successfully hit Ukrainian command centers, airfield and industrial facilities, air and naval drone depots, logistics bases, as well as deployment areas for Ukrainian troops and mercenaries.

 

Russia’s border regions routinely come under Ukrainian strikes, often resulting in dozens of civilian casualties. In addition, earlier this month, the so-called Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) and Russian Freedom Legion, paramilitary units composed of Russian defectors and neo-Nazi fugitives collaborating with Kiev, attempted to breach the border. The assault, however, was repulsed, with the collaborators losing hundreds of militants and dozens of armored vehicles, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.

 

(If Ukraine was smart, they would sit down for peace talks.)

West wants war with Russia – Dutch journalist to RT

Sonja van den Ende claims some European nations are actively preparing for a conflict with Moscow

 

The West wants “a war with Russia” and is actively preparing for this, Dutch independent journalist Sonja van den Ende claimed to RT on Thursday.

 

Senior civilian and military officials from several NATO member states have recently alleged that Moscow could attack the bloc in the coming years. Speaking to CNBC on Monday, Polish President Andrzej Duda, citing unspecified German research, claimed that Russia could invade NATO in 2026 or 2027.

 

Duda urged fellow member states to ramp up their defense spending, with a view to creating “such a deterrent that ensures we are not attacked.”

 

Van den Ende, who is a contributor at the Tehran Times, Insider Paper.com, and Oneworld.press media outlets, told RT that Western states are the “ones who are aggressive, they are the ones actually preparing themselves to go to war.”

 

Increasingly bellicose rhetoric from Western officials is no bluff, the journalist argued, citing ongoing efforts to stockpile ammunition and develop military drones, including long-range ones that could theoretically reach Russian territory. Van den Ende added that European nations are now putting their economies on a war footing.

 

According to the Dutch journalist, however,NATO is not yet prepared for a confrontation with Russia, with countries such as Germany facing severe staffing shortages in their military.

 

This problem is proving to be particularly serious, van den Ende claimed, noting that many Europeans are not tempted by the prospect of joining the army, let alone fighting in a war.

 

Russian President Vladimir Putin has consistently stressed that Moscow does not intend to attack NATO. Speaking to his supporters over the weekend after winning the presidential election, he suggested that “anything is possible in the modern world,” but added that hardly “anyone is interested” in an all-out military confrontation.

West goes there, discusses 'unthinkable' idea of sending troops to Ukraine — Hungarian PM

 

Viktor Orban highlighted the need to stop "the military spiral" from continuing to spin out of control and to stop the conflict in Ukraine from escalating

 

BUDAPEST, March 22. /TASS/. A number of Western countries continue to discuss the "unthinkable" possibility of sending troops to Ukraine, which could trigger a third world war, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said.

 

According to the Hungarian leader, initially it was just ammunition that was being provided to Ukraine, then came tanks, and, now, the deployment of ground troops is under consideration. "What seemed absurd and unthinkable just two months ago has now become a reality; this is what they call the spiral of war," Orban noted. He warned that "if a NATO country enters into military operations against Russia, it will mean the start of World War III."

 

The Hungarian premier emphasized that he viewed the idea of Western troop deployments to Ukraine as a shocking one; however, Brussels was still being guidedby "the logic of war." "I feel like I have arrived in another galaxy,"Orban confessed in a Kossuth radio program being broadcast from the Belgian capital, where an EU summit is now underway.

 

He highlighted the need to stop "the military spiral" from continuing to spin out of control and to stop the conflict in Ukraine from escalating. "Hungary is not at war with Russia," Orban stressed. "One way or another, we must make a turn. Fortunately, our government maintains a sober position and we are talking about a ceasefire and peace talks," the Hungarian prime minister emphasized.

UN warns war-torn state of new sanctions

A UNSC committee has drawn attention to the escalating violence in Sudan and called for compliance with an arms embargo

 

The UN Security Council Committee on Sudan said Tuesday that targeted sanctions could be imposed on those violating international humanitarian law in the country.

 

South Korean Ambassador Joonkook Hwang, who chairs the committee, emphasized that violence against civilians in the African state was escalating, particularly incidents of sexual and gender-based violence in Darfur region.

 

The committee also detailed violations of the arms embargo and international humanitarian and human rights laws, complex financing schemes by armed groups in the region, and ethnically-driven recruitment by warring factions.

 

Ambassador Hwang reminded the warring parties and “the Member States who facilitate the transfers of arms and the military material to Darfur” of their obligations to comply with embargo measures.

 

The conclusions stemmed from the release of the committee’s annual report for 2023, along with reports from the Sudan Panel on December 22, 2023, and the third quarterly report on February 23, 2024.

 

Washington’s alternate representative to the UN, Robert A. Wood, voiced concern regarding flagrant breaches of the UN arms embargo, particularly concerning the volume and frequency of weapons transfers “into Darfur from eastern Chad, Libya, and the Central African Republic.”

 

However, Sudanese envoy Ammar Mohammed Mahmoud argued for the lifting of restrictions, saying that “putting an end to the sanctions would allow the Sudanese government to better protect its civilians and would allow the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) to deal effectively in facing and ending the violations perpetrated by the Rapid Support militias.”

 

Clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) erupted in mid-April last year. The UN says at least 14,600 people have been killed and 26,000 others injured in 11 months of fighting across the nation.

‘LGBT movement’ added to Russia’s terrorist list

Banks are now obliged to freeze funds and suspend services to persons and groups associated with the grouping, which critics say is hard to define

 

Russia’s Federal Financial Monitoring Service (Rosfinmonitoring) has expanded its designation ofpersons and organizations deemed to be involved in extremist activities or terrorism to include “the international LGBT social movement and its structural units.” The updated list can be found on the agency’s website.

 

The move follows a ruling by the country’s Supreme Court last November that upheld the Ministry of Justice’s recognition of the“international LGBT movement” as extremist. Judges also recognized its structural divisions as fitting the same description and banned them; a move that representatives of the gay community said they feared would lead to a clampdown.

 

Earlier this week, a court ordered the arrest of an administrator and the art director of a gay bar in the city of Orenburg, after they were charged with violating a ban on LGBTQ ‘propaganda’.

 

According to the law, banks are required to freeze the funds of persons included on the list and suspend services to them. However, critics have argued that there is no specific international LGBT moment and that for that reason the wording is difficult to interpret.

 

Rosfinmonitoring's list includesmore than 14,000 people and entities designated as extremists and terrorists. They range from Al Qaeda, ISIS, and the Taliban to Ukraine's Neo-Nazi Azov Battalion and the movement of late Russian opposition figure Alexey Navalny.

 

According to Interfax sources, thelaw “does not affect the right of citizens to privacy and will not entail any negative legal consequences.” The restrictions are related to the need to comply with the ban on LGBT propaganda, advertising, generating interest, and involvement in the LGBT movement, the outlet said.

 

In 2022, Russia expanded an existing ban on ‘LGBT propaganda’ to minors by outlawing it altogether. State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin said at the time that the prohibition would shield “our children and the future of the country from the darkness spread by the US and European states.”

 

President Vladimir Putin clarified last month that the authorities do not have issues with what members of the community do in their personal lives, as long as they “don’t flaunt it”in public and do not involve children. He has previously spoken out against the promotion of “non traditional sexual relations” as part of a drive to promote “family values” which began during his third presidential term in the early 2010s.

 

Many observers in Russiahave linked the rise of the LGBT movement to the fall in birth rateswhich has accelerated across Europe over the past decade.

Devastating Russian attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure: What we know so far

The strikes have led to large-scale power outages across Ukraine, including in key regions like Kharkov and Odessa

 

Russian forces have unleashed a massive wave of attacks against Ukrainian energy facilities, military-industrial enterprises, railway junctions, storage facilities, and deployment centers for Kiev’s forces and foreign “mercenaries,” the Russian Defense Ministry reported on Friday.

 

Ukrainian officials said the strikes had led to large-scale blackouts as a result of significant damage to power generation facilities, as well as transmission and distribution systems in various regions across the country.

 

A total of 150 facilities across Ukraine have been damaged, according to the Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s office.

 

Zaporozhye

Ukrainian officials have reported that eight Russian missiles hit the Dnepr Hydro Power Plant in the Kiev-controlled city of Zaporozhye, causing a fire at the site and taking the facility out of commission.

 

Reports by Ukrhydroenergo have stated that the damage at the plant is extensive, but officials stressed that there is currently no threat of a breach at the dam. It’s noted, however, that one of the plant’s complexes – GES-2 – is in “critical condition” after the destruction of the turbine room and other electrical equipment.

 

Ukraine’s State Environmental Service has also reported a leak of petroleum products from the plant into the Dnepr River.

Kharkov

Ukrainian officials have confirmedmore than 20 attacks on Kharkov’s energy infrastructure, with the head of Ukrenergo stating that the situation “is the most difficult” after Russian forces tried to destroy “all the main energy facilities that power the city.”

 

Kharkov Mayor Igor Terekhov has claimed that the city is completely without power, stating that the damage at energy facilities is “too severe,” and that water and heat supply, electric transport, and traffic lights are out of order. He suggested that Friday’s attack was the largest since the start of the conflict two years ago.

 

Nevertheless, hospitals continue to operate because they run on generators and still have water, Tekerhkov said, adding that shops, pharmacies, markets, crime prevention centers, and hot food distribution outlets are still working.

Other regions

Throughout Friday, reports of explosions were recorded in Dnepropetrovsk (known as Dnepr in Ukraine), Ivanov-Frankovsk, Kiev, Krivoy Rog, Kirovgrad (known as Kropivnitskiy in Ukraine), Sumy, Kharkov, Khmelnitsky, and the Ukrainian-controlled Zaporozhye Region.

 

Ukrenergo has said the most significant damage to energy system facilities was recorded in Dnepropetrovsk, Kirovograd, Odessa and Kharkov regions, while Ukrainian energy company DTEK stated that serious damage had also been sustained by a number of thermal power plants throughout the country, without specifying which ones.

 

The attacks have also caused widespread internet outages, especially in Vinnitsa, Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkov and Khmelnitsky, according to officials.

Russia’s explanation

Moscow has described the large-scale strikes as a response to therecent shellings of Russian territoriesby Ukraine’s forces and their attempts to capture Russian border settlements.

 

The Russian Defense Ministry said all of the objectives of the strikes had been accomplished and that a number of Ukrainian decision-making centers had been destroyed. These included airfield infrastructure facilities, weapon and equipment repair shops, UAV storage depots, logistics bases, and military deployment centers.

 

The ministry added that, over the past week, Russian forces had also carried out atotal of 49 “retaliatory strikes” using high-precision, long-range, air-launched weapons, including Kinzhal aeroballistic hypersonic missiles, other missile systems, and UAVs.

Russia warned the US

22 MAR, 06:33.

Kremlin advises US to caution Ukraine against any terrorist activity

 

Earlier, the media reported that the United States had cautioned Ukraine against attacking Russian energy facilities

 

MOSCOW, March 22. /TASS/. Moscow would like Washington to urge Kiev not just to halt attacks on Russian energy infrastructure but also to refrain from terrorist actions altogether, primarily against residential blocks, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

 

Commenting on media reports saying that Washington has urged Kiev to halt strikes on Russian energy facilities as those risks driving up global oil prices, Peskov said: "We would rather like the United States to call on the Kiev regime to refrain from its terrorist actions in general, mostly against peaceful civilian facilities, and residential blocks."

 

Earlier, the Financial Times reported, citing people familiar with the discussions, that the United States had cautioned Ukraine against attacking Russian energy facilities. According to the newspaper, Washington warned that the strikes risk pushing global crude prices higher and is also concerned that Russia may retaliate with attacks on enemy infrastructure on which the West relies. This includes the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) being used by US oil majors ExxonMobil and Chevron and other Western companies, the FT wrote.

Dick Higgins, One of Few Remaining Pearl Harbor Survivors, Dies at 102

Olivia Rondeau21 Mar 2024

 

One of the final remaining survivors of the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor has died at 102 years old in Oregon, his family said.

 

Richard “Dick” Clyde Higgins was born in Mangum, Oklahoma, on July 24, 1921, according to the Orange County Register.

 

Higgins, who later became a Chief Petty Officer in the U.S. Navy, was serving as a radioman with a patrol squadron of seaplanes on the Oahu, Hawaii, base when the Japanese military attacked, the Associated Press reported.

 

“It took me about a tenth of a second to figure out what it was,” the veteran told KTVZ in 2016 of the moment he realized bombs were dropping.

 

Higgins served as a crew member for the remainder of World War II and was discharged with “numerous decorations and awards,” the outlet reported.

 

He passed away of natural causes on Tuesday after entering hospice care at his home in Bend, Oregon, a few days prior.

 

In December, he appeared as an honored guest at a Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, with local officials and Bend Senior High School students and staff recognizing him and other veterans for their military service.

 

The city council of Bend also declared a “Dick Higgins Day” in his honor.

 

“I never expected something like this,” the veteran said at the time. “I’m very honored to be here. I just represent all those that couldn’t be here.”

 

His granddaughter, Angela Norton, announced his death in a heartfelt Instagram post:

 

Gramps went home to be with Jesus this morning. He was a humble, generous, funny and loving husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather and friend. This community has celebrated and honored him and we are forever grateful for the impact he has made on all of us. At 102 years old, we have lost a precious part of history but because of his belief in Jesus we know that this is not the end. We can’t wait to see you again. Always and forever, we love you Gramps.

 

“I just never left his side,” Norton, who lived with her grandfather, told the Register. “I wanted to be with him on his final breath. At 1:42 a.m., he went home to be with his savior and his wife, Winnie Ruth.”

 

According to Norton, Higgins had been living with her and her family since 2013 and had Alzheimer’s disease.

 

“We thought it was going to be a short time, but he kept living,” the devoted granddaughter said. “For a good part of it, he was independent. It was so incredibly worth it to have this treasure and have him there for the kids. We are grateful for the full and celebrated life he had.”

 

Higgins was the last living member of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association’s Orange County Chapter 14, the publication noted.

 

After retiring from the Navy in 1959 after 20 years, he became an aeronautics engineer with the Northrop Corporation — which later became Northrop Grumman — and other private defense contractors.

 

He lost his wife of 60 years, Winnie Ruth McDonald Higgins, in 2004 when she was 82 years old.

 

Only 22 survivors of the Pearl Harbor attack remain, AP reported.

 

God Bless Dick Higgins. I think he met PDJT at the WH.
