Six dead after Ukrainian strikes using US-made HIMARS – Russian governor
Kiev has launched a massive missile attack using Western weapons on the town of Rylsk in Kursk Region, Aleksandr Khinshtein says
Ukrainian forces launched a missile attack on Rylsk in Russia’s Kursk Region on Friday,killing six people, including a child, and injuring ten others, acting governor of the region Aleksandr Khinshtein has said. The official added that Kiev's troops had used US-made HIMARS missiles.
The strikes caused extensive damage to civilian infrastructure throughout the city,damaging a a house of culture, a primary school, and living and study quarters belonging to Rylsk Aviation College. The attack also shattered windows in apartment buildings and impacted several private homes as well as 15 or more vehicles.
“What happened today is a huge tragedy for all of us,” Khinshtein wrote in a Telegram post. The work of emergency services has been complicated by repeated attacks from the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the governor added.
He expressed confidence that those responsible for the attack would face retribution and that all destroyed infrastructure will be repaired.
In a short video message posted on his Telegram channel on Friday, Khinshtein accused Kiev’s forces of “deliberately choosing civilian facilities [and] social facilities as their targets.”
Several Russian Telegram channels and media outlets have published what appears to be footage of the aftermath of the attack shot by eyewitnesses. In some of these video clips, several burning cars and damaged buildings can be seen.
Rylsk is located about 30 kilometers from the Ukrainian border and has a population of around 15,000.
Ukrainian troops invaded Kursk Region on August 6, with a force reportedly of some 35,000 troops. The area they control has been steadily shrinking in recent months, but they still maintain a presence in some parts of the region.

(The little shit Zelensky vowed he doesn't want the war to end until Trump gets in, so Z thinks he will have unfettered access Trump and his Admin. He's willing to once again Bomb Russia Territory and kill civilians. He's making a big mistake, by forcing Putin to address this. Normally Ukraine would have been already bombed in retaliation. I suspect the Russian military are planning a major section near Kiev will be hit. Putin can't ignore the intentional killing. Z thinks he'll be able to scam Trump, but I think Trump is just waiting and ignoring him for now. This attack only proves Russia has been right on terrorist attacks and killing over 9,000 ethnic Russians that are Ukraine citizens since 2014. Wouldn't surprise me if Boris Johnson is involved.)

Zelensky says he won’t ‘rush’ to end conflict
Zelensky has previously insisted that the only viable path to peace with Russia was his ten-point ‘peace formula’, which includes a complete withdrawal of Russian forces from former Ukrainian territories and the restoration of the country’s 1991 borders. Widely touted by the West, the proposal was never taken seriously in Moscow.

At this point Ukraine will never be part of NATO!
