France has determined that Ukraine used a US-made Patriot missile to kill 65 of its own POWsTwo French nationals were killed and three others injured this week in Ukraine, the French government claimed on Friday. Paris insists they were humanitarian workers.The announcement was made by French Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne, who claimed the incident is an example of “Russian barbarity.”“Two French humanitarian workers paid with their lives for their commitment to the Ukrainians. Three were injured,” Sejourne wrote on social media platform X (formerly Twitter).

 A similar message came from French President Emmanuel Macron, who said “volunteers” had been killed in a Russian strike. He condemned the attack as a “cowardly and unworthy act.” READ MORE: Mercenaries and neo-Nazis: Why French citizens keep dying senseless deaths for UkraineWhile the French government did not reveal any further details of the affair, the strike that killed its citizens apparently took place earlier this week in Kherson. According to Aleksandr Prokudin, the head of the Ukrainian-controlled part of the Russian region, a number of French “volunteers” were hit in Berislav, a town located some 70km east of Kherson city.Days previously, Russia claimed a high-precision strike “on the temporary assembly point of foreign fighters,” in the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkov killed over 60 French mercenaries and injured some 20 more.In the wake of the attack, Paris officially denied having any mercenaries fighting for Ukraine. At the same time, Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu insisted that France, being a “democratic country,” could not actually forbid its citizens from voluntarily joining Kiev’s ranks, should they desire to do so.

From the beginning its been clear to any thinking person.
To the Empire, Ukraine was never anything but a coffin meat proxy
to try and weaken Russia.

Shoot down a Russian cargo type plane for SIMPLY PR.
Who cares if 65 Ukes are on board?  PROXY MEAT.

When this is over Id bet one million ukes will die. Close already.
WASH DC will NOT have weakened Russia.
Russia will only have become stronger through
the LEARNING OF ACTUAL WAR.

Another WASH DC massive failure.

It's HARD to call something a failure, that has ALREADY resulted in MAJOR FAILURES for Russia, and MAJOR Victories for NATO... AND, VICTORIES the Russia may NEVER recover from !  The MASSIVE losses in terms of equipment and men, is ONE thing... and those are VERY bad... BUT, EVEN WORSE for Russia is:

1)  Norway and Sweden agreeing to JOIN NATO, making the Baltic Sea a NATO lake, and the strategic value of Kaliningrad meaningless !

2)  Poland, Germany, Sweden, Norway, and the Baltic States... ALL doubling their military commitments and funding... and ALL upgrading and modernizing their weapons systems to PROVEN U.S. Made hardware... BECAUSE of the Russian invasion !

3)  The COMPLETELY OUTMATCHED Russian technology and tactics... ON DISPLAY for the WORLD to SEE ! and...

4)  Even with U.S. Funding stopped.. Ukraine IS STILL fighting Russia to a stalemate, it has KICKED Russia OUT of Servasterpol, and the missile strikes (and other strikes/attacks) into Crimea, are PROVING Russia is going to have ONE HELL of time trying to HANG ON to Crimea !

YOU call THAT "A MASSIVE Failure" for NATO and America ?  HA!! 

If THAT'S what Russia calls a failure... JUST WAIT... because NOTHING is over yet... AND THIS has just been... the end of ROUND 1 !!
