  1. This information have not yet been verified, ATACMs dont need a drone to guide them they use gps ,the global hawk was present jus maybe to record if the target was hit furthermore ukraine carry out terrorist attacks but the target was not the beach rather the missile was intercepted over the beach since it was loaded with (illegal,banned and unsafe) a cluster warhead the fragments and submunition landed on the beach

  4. So basically both side agree that no direct confrontation occurred. US said it landed. Russia said it crashed due to a sharp turn. Why are you guys at WION trying to make something out of nothing?

  5. It was not the Russians who shot down the drone, but the army of the breakaway republics with Russian weapons. Russia is not to blame and cannot take responsibility for the downing of a drone by another army. Did the Russians give them rockets to shoot down satellites, it looks like we will find out soon, but really no one can control those breakaway republics. Maybe European NATO members will be targeted, so they arm their enemies, you never know.

  6. Can we get a straight answer from the USA or even Mother Russia?

    The USA: From Russia?! ๐Ÿค”

    Landed safely after turning off it's transpo-

    I can't even repeat the lies. I already know it's stupid.

  7. Better question is what is an American drone doing near Russian airspace during a time of conflict. America is playing a deadly game with Russia. If Russia gave weapons to the taliban or Sadam, we would of completely lost it and called them evil, yet it's alright for America to arm Russias enemies. We, as Americans, only look at it from our perspective. Russians see us as people of double standards. Do as I say not as I do. I personally think America's time is up. Just looking at the youth, we are through

  8. The British-made Storm Shadow missiles and the American-made Atacam missiles which have been deployed by NATO and Pentagon on the territory of Ukraine for hitting civilian targets inside Russia, are fully within operational control by NATO and Pentagon command centres and their operational control has not been transferred to Ukrainian hands by Rishi Sunak and Joe Biden. These missiles require a complex procedure for operation, relying on real time reconnaisance data from satellites for pinpointing the location of targets, and the feeding of a flight plan based on inertial coordinates into the on board computer. All of these steps are being performed by NATO and Pentagon directly without any participation by Ukrainian troops. For the past two and a half years, American drones flying over the Black Sea and the Ukraine have fired missiles and laser-guided bombs off and on at Russian civilian and military assetts, and have had their transponders which transmit IFOF frequencies, turned off, so that once they have hurled their payload of bombs on Russian targets, America can get away by saying that the incriminated drone belonged to the Ukrainian Airforce and not to America. On the other hand, if the drone gets shot down by a Russian missile before it could drop its bombs on Russia, American strategy is to create a ruckus by bemoaning that Russia has shot down a drone belonging to a third country, ie. America which is not a party to the conflict. Apart from dropping bombs on Russian assetts, American drones have also been transmitting reconnaisance data back to makeshift remote-command centres based deep inside the EU, in Germany and Czechia, from where EU civilians are directly remote-controlling missile batteries installed on Ukrainian soil and firing them at Russian targets. In this say, American and EU drones have been directly parricipating in aggression against Russia and Belarus, including the trecherous bombing of Russian ships from a designated peace corridor, and the shooting down of a Russian Awacs plane flying on routine peacetime mission over a third country, Belarus.
    Thus, American and EU drones have been flying undaunted near Russia, with their identification-friend-or-foe frequencies turned ON on purpose until THE PENULTIMATE MOMENT when they fired their arsenal of bombs and missiles at Russian Targets after switching those transponders off suddenly. These drones also do not bear US Air Force or Navy markings. These drones have trecherously fired missiles and dropped bombs on Russian ships from the strategic nuclear fleet, from a "peace corridor" which had been agreed upon as a zone of no combat in triliteral agreements meant for facilitating Ukrainian foodgrain exports to Europe.

    In this way, American and EU drones, which carry more than a dozen missiles each, have been taking off from bases situated imside the EU and from American warships, and have mounted direct aggression against Russia by bombing Russian ships, Russian airplanes on peacetime missions, and Russian civilian assetts. These drones are operated by remote control from NATO bases inside Europe, and fly over the Black Sea and Ukraime, and suddenly switch off their friend-or-foe-identification transponders at the PENULTIMATE MOMENT just before firing missiles and bombs on Russian targets, so that America can eschew culpability by saying that the drones involved do not belong to the American military, but are part of the Ukrainian arsenal. Whole swarms American and EU dtones keep loittering in the sky with hostile intentions in the expectation that Russia will shy away from shooting them down out of fear of embarrassment from adverse appraisal by western news agencies and their South Asian surrogates. And then, suddenly, the drones swing into action and fire missiles on Russian assetts by catching the latter off guard in the anecdotal moment. The best way for a farmer to save himself from a leopard or panther that has barged into his field is to shoot him dead at first sight, instead of waiting for it to demonsrrate its aggression by readiying itself to pounce on the farmer, because a lepard can strike at lightning speed. It is high time that both these drones as well as the European bases from where they takeoff, are smoked out of existence by Russia.
    To deprecate the premptive downing of American drones by Russia is typical of priestcrafty conscience, as embodied in the priestcrafty untouchability-monger judicial officers who sentence innocent farmers in South Asia to imprisonment with hard labour for having shot leopards in self defence in their farms. The priestcrafters argue that a farmer should shoot at a leopard which has intruded in his field, only at the moment when the leopard has announced its hostile intentions by bracing up into position for pouncing on the poor man, and not one instant before. This priestcrafty argument is an undisguised call for murder of the farmer, given that the farmer stands no chance of escape once the leopard has jumped up in the air, because one cannot win against the lightening speed of a leopard strike.
    Actually, most of the drones deployed by America and the EU over the black Sea and Ukraine do not bear any markings which would identify them as NATO or Pentagon assetts. They do not transmit IFOF frequencies. These drones are armed with missiles and bombs. They are used by the EU and Pentagon for bombing Russian assetts and troops, but the EU and the US immediately dismiss all culpability by claiming that those drones had been supplied to Ukraine and it is Ukraine which had been remote piloting them. The EU and America have been using their drones for surveillance to eavesdrop of Russian assetts located within Ukraine as well as mainland Russia, and relaying that info to makeshift remote command centres located deep within the EU in countries like Germany, Poland and Czechia. NATO and America have also deployed missile batteries aimed at targets located in mainland Russia and on ships belonging to the strategic Russian naval fleet. These missiles, although located on the territory of Ukraine, are not under operational control of the Ukrainian army, but are under semi-autonomous remote operational control by civilian and military personnel staffers at the makeshift NATO command centres situated in Germany, Poland and Czechia etc. It is from those command centres, that NATO and America have fired missiles at Russia strategic naval fleet ships in the Black Sea, and on a Russian Beriev airborne early warning aircraft which was on non-combat duty in a third country, Belarus. Moreover, American drones flying over the Black Sea, trecherously dropped bombs and fired missiles on a Russian frigate, from a peace corridor which had been agreeed upon as a no-combat zone, under a triliteral agreement for facilitating Ukrainian foodgrain exports, between Russia Ukraine and the western bloc. So, these American and German-operated drones were legitimate military targets of counter-strikes from Russian defense batteries. Notice the intellectual gymnastics involved in the tacit admission by western media outlets that American drones are known to carry upto 15 missiles, but with the rider that they are mainly used for "surveillance" alone. Western media outlets have been bemoaning that the American drones which had been downed by Russia , were only on benign reconnaisance missions and alleging that Russia has "unfairly escalated" matters by shooting it down. Either way, whether the drones have on a bombing sortie, or pure reconnoiteering, they deserved to be smoked out at the very least…
    Rishi Sunak and Akshata Murthy the first- couple-entitled- bedmates of Britain, and Joe Biden the ceremonial president of USA and Anthony Blinken the defacto-incharge, are guilty of having mounted direct aggression against civilians residing inside Russia, and attempts to launch missile as well as electronic sabotage attacks on Russian strategic forces hardware including nuclear early warning systems. NATO has attempted to hijack Russian ICBM's via electronic piloting by flying missiles with ECM payloads very close by, and neutralising those ICBM's by firing them at innocent civilians in Asia and Africa. The EU nations have announced their culpability by their deeds, and have rendered themselves legitimate targets of nuclear counter strikes for saving Asia and Africa from their holocaustic designs. In the same way in which an American drone operated and managed entirely by the Pentagon had trecherously fired a missile at a Russian AWACS plane on peacetime duty in a third country viz. Belarus; likewise all airports and railway stations inside the EU from which weapons are despatched to Ukraine have become legitimate targets of Russian tactical nuclear strikes.

  9. the West fire into Russia and killed their citizens….and Russia great angry response…..shoot a drone. No wonder the West keep escalating with such sort of responses from Russia.

  10. EU and American drones, which have been flying over both Ukraine and the Black Sea, have been committing relentless aggression against Russia. These drones which include the Reaper among others, carry more than a dozen missiles each, and have butchered an entire wedding party in Afghanistan, and murdered Gen Solemani in Iraq. As such, at the very least they are legitimate targets of reprisal shootings by Russian defence forces, eventhough the aggression which has been mounted by them against Russia would justify retaliatory strategic nuclear strikes on Europe as well, on moral grounds. I say this, because these drones deliberately have been modified to erase all surface markings which could identify them as belonging to the US navy or US Airforce; and moreover, their identification-friend-or-foe transponders are deliberately switched off at the very moment when they fire missiles at Russian targets, but kept ON until the PENULTIMATE moment. In this way, these drones have fired missiles in the nick of time upon Russian ships in the Black Sea, upon Russian Beriev Awacs planes on peacetime duties in Belarus and on civilian Russian facilities situated on the Russian mainland. As I understand, it was in grudging admittance of these crimes that the German chancellor has acknowledged that her country and its allies are engaged in war against Russia. The problem with Russia as I see it, is that Russia has till now erred on the side of restraint, exactly in the same way when America had conspired to have a Russian pilot engaged in non-combat humanitarian operations trecherously shot down by Turkish NATO airforce pilots. Russia had reposed faith in goodwill of America, and had got beguiled in the belief that by having provided advance info about the flight path of Russian pilots to America in good faith, Russia could remain assured of avoidance of incidents. Because of such naive trust in trecherous Americans, Russia had also not deemed it necessary to equip its airplanes with Vimpel missiles. And The US and Turkey ambushed the Russian airplane by exploiting this window of weakness through oversight or negligence of Russia. Western news mongers are saying that Russia has no moral right to shoot down American drones in international airspace, because according to the western creed of global conscience keepers, such a measure will amount to a provocation and escalation. Russia has oft times made the mistake to shying away from shooting down American and EU drones, out of fear of adverse comments from western political observers., and this has emboldened swarms of those drones to venture unmolested dangerously close to Russian assetts, whereupon those drones suddenly switch off their transponders at the penultimate moment and fire missiles and bombs at Russian targets. Having switched off their transponders at the very end, the Americans think they can fool Russia and get away by saying that those drones were piloted not by NATO or the Pentagon, but were part of equipment provided in form of military aid to Ukraine and were piloted by Ukrainians. But Russia knows very well that those drones take off from NATO bases im Italy and Romania among others, and from American warships, conduct reconnaissance on Russian assetts, relay the info via satellite to data-processors located inside remote-command centres deep inside the EU in Germany and Czechia, and from those command centres, digital orders are conveyed via satellite to semi-autonomous missile batteries nominally located on Ukrainian soil but controlled entitely by European civilian techs and pilots from the EU remote command centres. The right thing for Russia to do is to smoke out both the drones as well as the locales from where they have taken off..
    The entry of American ATACAMS and British STORM SHADOW missiles on the scene has unfolded a new dimension, because there is no way these missiles can be fired at Russian targets without full-fledged involvement of NATO, the British military and the Pentagon in such aggression. Use of ATACAMS and STORM SHADOW requires real time access to satellite reconnaisance data for pinpointing the targets, and feeding of a flight path based on predetermined coordinates into the onboard computer ; and AI management. Those missiles remain fully under active managerial control of NATO and US military command centres at every stage of their operation. The USA, EU and Britain are committing direct aggression against Russia.

  11. Iโ€™m sorry but the FULL BLAME for not PREVENTING THIS HEINOUS ACT is on Putin!! – Russia wasnโ€™t born yesterday, how many times do you need to see US drop stuff on civilians, just ask chatgpt which country is the aggressor with millions of casualties in the past 5 decades
