Sounds like starting a war with Nato.

Remember when he said he wasn’t going to invade Ukraine? I don’t know why any news outlet repeats his garbage anymore

[-] taanegl@lemmy.world 28 points 6 months ago

Oh, so attacking NATO military installations on NATO ground is not an attack on NATO? What's the charter got to say about all this?

[-] Aurix@lemmy.world 28 points 6 months ago

Badly worded article name. This is nothing new. Ukraine can't use foreign airbases and immediately fly strikes already. In other news, water is wet.

[Putin] "warned that any Western air base hosting U.S.-made F-16 fighter jets that are slated for deployment in Ukraine would be a “legitimate target”"

The article title looks pretty accurate to me.

[-] Aurix@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Yes, but it should stress better this is reiterating the current status. It is non news.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.world 20 points 6 months ago

Looks like those F-16s will help Ukraine win one way or another.

"I won't start a war with you, I'll just attack your country. As long as you don't fight back, it won't be a war."

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 12 points 6 months ago

In other news, all F16s could be Ukrainian F16s. God I hope no one falls for this propaganda, but I have been witness to the past ~~10~~ 16 years.

Good thing this isn't happening, huh?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The Kremlin currently has a battlefield edge in weapons and troops, yielding recent incremental gains at points on the around 1,000-kilometer (620-mile) front line, as Kyiv awaits more promised Western military support and mulls a broader mobilization.

Russia fired salvos of drones and missiles overnight at southern and eastern regions of Ukraine, authorities said Thursday, wounding more than a dozen people as the Kremlin’s forces persevered with attritional attacks designed to wear down Ukrainian defenses.

The regular bombardment of Ukraine by the Kremlin’s forces during the war has recently gained momentum, with missile barrages of the capital, Kyiv, and strikes on energy facilities across the country.

One of Russia’s goals is to “deplete Ukraine’s inventory of ground-based air defense,” according to a recent military assessment published by the International Institute for Strategic Studies.

The Ukrainian Mission to NATO said that it convened an extraordinary ambassador-level meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council at the alliance’s headquarters on Thursday in response to Russia’s missile attacks on critical infrastructure.

Authorities in the Mykolaiv region, near the Black Sea in southern Ukraine, said that 12 people were wounded and six residential buildings were damaged in a Russian strike with a ballistic missile on the city on Wednesday afternoon.


The original article contains 952 words, the summary contains 203 words. Saved 79%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

His troops are merely passing through the area?
