These lads don't sound like neo-nazis to me:
@Konstantin posted a Russian language video about this:
From the looks of it, the installation has been used over the past few years as a training center. Further, from the casualty figures, the strike in noway destroyed the UFL.

Read a report on this action in today's Wall Street Journal. According to the WSJ's sources, no foreigners were killed or admitted to the hospital.

Good info. I saw today that Putin is recruiting foreign mercenaries to fight. Do you know if that is true?
I also saw a report that the Russian army could run out of supplies and ammo within 10 days. Any truth to that?
I apologize if I’m leaning on you a little here for info, but you are demonstrating no-bias in the reports. Kinda helps sort it out. Thanks
peace to you
Yes, the Russians are recruiting fighters from Syria.
But according to Mr, Putin they are not "mercenaries."

Thanks
That makes since. He has helped Assad there. So while Putin’s allies openly help him, we are afraid to “provoke” Russia by providing aircraft.
Last week, it was troops from Belarus that were suppose to be gearing up to help Russia in Ukraine. I guess that didn’t happen.
I hope the story of the Russian army running out of ammo and supplies in 10 days is true. That might change a lot of things.
peace to you
That's what I'm trying to present. Less the Kremlin propaganda.

Just amazing the dozens of specialized heavy armor and light armor vehicles being used. Thanks again.
peace to you
Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., called on the U.S. to do whatever is necessary to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia, after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed Congress asking for assistance.
Zelenskyy showed video of the carnage taking place in his country and asked either for a no-fly zone over Ukraine or for fighter jets that his military can use. Sasse stressed that it is imperative that Ukraine emerges from this conflict victorious, not just for itself but for the world.
"Zelenskyy needs to win. The Ukrainian freedom fighters need to win. We don't need them just to lose more slowly. We need them to win. To win they need to kill Russians. To kill Russians they need more weapons," Sasse told reporters after Zelesnkyy's remarks. "They need more Javelins, they need more ammo, they need more Stingers, they need more SAMs, they need more airplanes, they need more of everything."
The Biden administration had rejected an arrangement whereby Poland would transport MiG fighter jets to an American base in Germany for them to be transferred to Ukraine. Lawmakers have been urging the president to reconsider, and Zelenskyy did the same at the end of his remarks.
"You are the leader of the nation, of your great nation. I wish you to be the leader of the world," Zelenskyy said. "Being the leader of the world means being the leader of peace."
Sasse echoed that sentiment.
"They're fighting not just for their kids and for their future -- they're fighting for the free world. Zelenskyy has the courage of his convictions. The question he asked the Congress and the United States government is 'will we have the courage of ours?' We're a superpower. We should act like it."
