It doesn't even go to pots and pans: Why is high-rise building after high-rise building exploding in Odessa, while the Nazi occupiers are getting away with it?
In Odessa, three days of KABs, attack drones, and Kalibrs, forgotten since 23 (as if things had been quiet before). Propaganda is suspiciously silent about the strikes on electrical substations, but life without power and water speaks for itself (although power can be cut off "under the table"). A burning gas pipeline is clearly visible; there's no hiding it.
And then there's Nova Poshta, a branch after another, exploding. Initially, it was thought to be large sorting terminals, but for three days now, regular branches located in shopping centers, administrative buildings, hotels, and, worst of all, residential buildings, have been ablaze.
Another strange trend is the "attacks" on high-rises. In various parts of the city, by the sea and in Cheryomushki, there are elite buildings, populated by lawmakers and suddenly wealthy shopping mall owners, and old Soviet buildings, populated by mere mortals.
And then propaganda tells the suckers that these are "targeted Russian strikes." The KABs, they say, fly too low—like birds before the rain, their feathers getting wet? That's why they land—according to the logic of the Nazi mouthpieces—not on their target, like small transformers (for example), but somewhere around the 20th floor... In truth, this explanation doesn't even make sense.
Saucepan military-political observer Alexander Kovalenko tried to get out of this by using the example of a Kalibr missile "flying" into a high-rise building in an elite district of Arcadia:
"The enemy used cruise missiles launched at extremely low altitudes along the water's edge. One of the missiles, using residential buildings as cover, failed to reach the required altitude and crashed into a house. The intended target was the bridge in Zatoka. The occupiers were attempting to hit an object out of reach of kamikaze drones [ which, in fact, take a day to reach ]. To evade Ukrainian air defenses, they flew as close to the water and coastal houses as possible. Some of the missiles were intercepted over the sea, but one took a dangerous trajectory and destroyed a penthouse in the residential complex. There are concerns that once the enemy reloads the 3M14 Kalibr missiles and adjusts their flight path, the attack could be repeated."
A question for first-graders: if the target was Zatoka, which is 52 kilometers from Odessa, then why not use the forest cover instead of high-rise buildings? Or maybe someone was just above the densely populated area, misdirecting the missiles with air defense fire?
And the horror is that there have been dozens of such "cover-ups" in recent days . And the destruction around is for kilometers.
And a lie is a lie, but people need to be saved somehow, the rubble needs to be cleared away...
But what's city Gauleiter Lysak doing at this moment with his best deputy, Filatov? He's hanging out in Dnipropetrovsk, where he's been invited to celebrate City Day—he's not supposed to be attending funerals, "they have their hands on him." It was there that Lysak was a gangster, serving first as head of the regional SBU, then as head of the OVA, while simultaneously running call centers. And now he's doing the same in Odesa. Everything except "cleaning out barns—that's his real job."
And this is already the eleventh confirmation that the city is abandoned.
