  1. Jesus healed me when no doctor or medicine could heal me. More importantly, Jesus healed and saved me from my sin and from death (meaning ending up in Hell forever). Jesus took the price for my sin on the cross, and by His stripes and by His blood I am healed and cleansed! Jesus loves and cares about you, and He sacrificed His life dying on the cross to bail you out of your sin and shame to give you access into the Most unimaginably beautiful place called The Kingdom of Heaven. Repent, make a 180 degree turn from your sin and current lifestyle, and let Jesus come into your heart and transform you today and forevermore!

  2. On the night of September 3, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched new wave of combined strikes with drones and missiles in Ukrainian rear regions. Explosions again thundered throughout the country. According to local reports, targets of Russian strikes included military airfields in the Poltava and Mykolaiv regions. Most of the nigh strikes targeted Ukrainian manpower accumulated both in the tactical and strategic rear areas. Strikes on the Armed Forces of Ukraine were reported throughout the Kharkiv region, including in the area of Chuguev turned into an important logistics hub of the Ukrainian grouping operating in the border area.

    One of missile strikes on Ukrainian military personnel was reported in the city of Dnipro. The attack was confirmed by the local Ukrainian authorities.

    Another Russian missile destroyed the Grand Palace hotel turned into point of temporary deployment of Ukrainian officers and foreign mercenaries in the city of Zaporozhie. Local residents reported that a large number of ambulances rushed to the area after the strike.

    One of the most devastating strikes on the Ukrainian military personal was inflicted today in the city of Poltava. At about 9 am local time, two large explosions thundered in the city and local residents spotted a lot of ambulances rushing to the area of the strikes.

    Russian ballistic missiles struck the 179th training center of the signal troops at 44 Zenkovskaya Street in Poltava. The Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered heavy losses as a result of the direct strikes on a six-story educational and administrative building and the local cantine. Most of the victims are young specialists of the electronic warfare.

    The footage confirmed heavy losses. Zelensky was forced to admit the attack. He claimed that 41 people were killed and more than 180 others were wounded.

    Zelensky and the Western MSM are hiding the truth saying that the destroyed military training enter was ‘an educational facility and a hospital’.

    In fact, the real losses are definitely much higher than claimed by the Ukrainian side, so that they forced Zelensky to comment on the attack. Ukrainian servicemen were reportedly gone out for morning formation where their ranks were destroyed by two precision strikes of Russian missiles. The building was almost completely destroyed. The local hospitals are urgently calling for locals to donate blood.

    Igor Mosiychuk, a former MP and deputy commander of the notorious Azov regiment, claimed that the attack may have resulted in up to 600 casualties. While blaming Russia for the strike, he also said the military command bears some responsibility for allowing so many high-value soldiers to be in one place without shelter.

    Poltava is about 120 kilometers from the Russian border. The warning times after the missile launch was allegedly too short for everyone to reach the bunkers. The Institute of Communications is training radio and radar operators. Its main multi-story building has been completely destroyed. Britta Ellwanger, a (former?) Swedish volunteer with the Ukrainian army wrote that Swedish friends of hers, also volunteering with the Ukrainian army, were among those who died in the strike.

    Sweden had promised to gift two Swedish AWACS planes to Ukraine: Sweden has announced sending its Saab 340B AEW&C (Airborne Early Warning and Control) aircraft to Kyiv, as per an announcement made by its defense ministry on May 29, 2024.

    Given the nature of the Institute of Communications in Poltava it is likely that the Swedes were training Ukrainian operators for those.

    One wonders why the training was not held elsewhere.

    The Swedes should have remembered the history of that city:

    The Battle of Poltava[e] (8 July 1709) was the decisive and largest battle of the Great Northern War. The Russian army under the command of Tsar Peter I defeated the Swedish army under the command of Carl Gustaf Rehnskiöld. The battle put an end to the status of the Swedish Empire as a European great power, as well as its eastbound expansion, and marked the beginning of Russian supremacy in eastern Europe.

    Swedish and NATO attempts to change that status of Russia in eastern Europe more than 300 years after it had been achieved has ended in failure.

  3. If Zelensky still thinks he can win this war, then he needs to be examined. He should not forget that this war has reached this far because with the exception of a few, all the Western countries have their military industrial might supporting him , from missiles to tanks to sattelite intelligence to direct and indirect boots on the ground.
