British press: Kyiv is working on scenarios for long-range missile strikes in Crimea

Ukraine has already found a use for the long-range missiles promised by the UK, and a scenario for attacking targets on the Crimean peninsula is being worked out in Kyiv. It is reported by The Times.


The British publication refers to a source in the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, who confirmed plans to use long-range missiles on the Russian peninsula. According to him, now the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is working out scenarios for delivering such strikes, assigning preliminary targets, etc. The specific option will be determined after it becomes known exactly which missiles Kyiv will receive and in what quantity.

The source confirmed that Zelensky had repeatedly stated the need for strikes against the "occupied territories" to destroy military installations of the Russian Armed Forces there. Crimea is also a "captured Ukrainian land", Ukraine is ready to strike at it, but so far there is nothing. In Kyiv, they hope that this situation will change soon and the UK will provide the means to destroy targets on the peninsula.

In the UK itself, they confirmed that they had promised long-range missiles to Kyiv, but refused to provide any details. Meanwhile, information has emerged that the British may provide Ukraine with Harpoon anti-ship missiles with a range of up to 240 km, modified to strike land targets. Also considered is the option of aviation Storm Shadow missile with a range of 250 km in the export version. According to Western military experts, both options are quite possible.

At the moment, the final decision has not yet been made, the UK government is actively discussing this issue. The fact that the transfer of long-range missiles could lead to a further escalation of the conflict does not bother Britain, the main thing is to inflict as much defeat on Russia as possible through the hands of Ukraine.

    So it is surprising that Russia redraws all the extra red ones.

      The United States almost unleashed a nuclear war just because of the supply of Soviet missiles to Cuba - they forced them to remove the missiles. The USSR also achieved the removal of American missiles from Turkey.
      And we only have concerns and draw virtual lines.

        Here's what I'm interested in. Are you deliberately saying that? The United States, then, forced it, but the USSR achieved it? As for me, on the contrary, the USSR forced the United States to remove their missiles from Turkish territory. And it was the United States that achieved such a response from the USSR.

          I agree with this option. However, it does not change the essence - the missiles were removed.

            There is no essence in comparing the USSR and modern Russia. Enemies trembled and respected a superpower with a powerful economy and armed forces capable of repulsing any enemy. Although they tried to call us Upper Volta with rockets. Russia has just begun to raise its head, but so far this very Upper Volta is, and the West naturally did not wait until we proudly square our shoulders. So we will rebuild and develop on the go, which, however, is not the first time for us

          Of course, nothing accidental. With the active support of our authorities, all universities that train journalists and others like them have been seized by American intelligence services. What we can see very well in the example of how these universities treat the guys who dared to declare their patriotic position.
          Since the 60s, Americans have been developing a cluster of technologies that allow them to influence the minds of their opponents through their own language. Here are examples
          - massive use of the word "earned" in the description of the income of thieves, robbers, bandits and murderers. Affects the basic attitudes of consciousness.
          - the definition of "Russians" for the citizens of our country. More than 80% of citizens are Russians. Such countries in the world are called mononational. However, our authorities, with maniacal persistence, using this definition, are destroying the connection of citizens with the country and, most importantly, the connection of people with the Russian mentality on which the country is built. It is already becoming incomprehensible why the hell these random people have gathered in these incomprehensible boundaries ...
          Well, then you can find hundreds of such examples that you paid attention to. There is a mind-space war going on against us, extremely successful. And our authorities are cooperating with might and main in it with the enemy ...

            - this is a mistake that, at the suggestion of the West, began to sow repeated seeds of discord. Under Stalin, there was no division into nationalities (but they did not forget about the roots and originality). There was a man - Soviet, Russian.

              Alas. The Soviet man instantly screwed up half the country in 41, and almost ruined it. But Stalin got his bearings very quickly, and if you read the propaganda materials that went from the second half of 41 to 45, you will see "Russian-Russian-Russian" everywhere. Stalin could not allow the country to lose, and therefore the Soviet man was completely forgotten. But they remembered, oh, how they remembered the Russian man) Alas, in 45 everything turned around again ...

    Britons can also transfer long-range weapons to Bandera. Even, for sure, they will pass it on. And, those, without much hesitation, will apply it. There are no doubts. The point is, are we ready for this? Or again it will be a surprise for the leadership?

        Your naivete even upsets me. We don't have enough air defense to "simply stuff" at least Crimea. If a lot of missiles are transferred, if the strikes are frequent, systematic and large-scale, plus we also add tricks from British American intelligence, then sometimes we may not be pleased with the result.

    in Kyiv, a scenario for striking targets on the Crimean peninsula is being worked out.
    So Britain, supplying missiles, becomes a participant in the planned strike on the Crimea. And then what? What will the diplomats decide? about the military while there is no talk? Each time, the West provides Ukraine with more and more opportunities to cause tangible harm to Russia, incl. and political.

    It was necessary to stop any deliveries of any aid from the very beginning.
    And now the train has left. And the West will respond to any attempt to escalate one hundred sides of Russia with a multiple increase in the supply of weapons and other military assistance.

      Only fools are not afraid. Probably, the previous psychological portrait painters argued that the GDP would never decide on a military operation against the Nenka. And now, a year has passed, and this is not even the middle. I'm quite admitting that Britain will not live to see the end of this year. Moreover, as far as I understand, it is technically easier for us to implement this than to blow up gas pipelines for amers with Norwegians.

    It's amazing what denazification and demilitarization led to, in a year we are waiting for strikes in the Russian Crimea ((((

    As long as the ports and coast of the primordially Russian cities of Odessa, Nikolaev and Kherson are not controlled by the Russian Federation, but by its enemies, Bandera, the USA and Great Britain, as today, Crimea and Sevastopol cannot be seen as their ears!

    Crimea will always be under attack and will live under constant artillery and rocket fire from the Armed Forces of Ukraine as Donetsk lives under them until Odessa, Nikolaev and Kherson, the entire space from the Dnieper to the Dniester will not be under the full control and sovereignty of the Russian Federation.

    We have at our disposal volumetric explosion ammunition, colloquially referred to as the "Tsar Bomba". Not being atomic charges, a pair of such bombs can demolish Kyiv to the ground, for example. Or completely destroy several estates of the gentlemen of the Ukrainian deputies, oligarchs, and other evil spirits at once. And also immediately clear kilometers 5-7 of the front from all fighters and means of destruction, including the deepest dugouts and the strongest pillboxes.
    I don’t have any kind of classified information, in order to find out such things, it’s enough just to follow the open one) In general, they wouldn’t wake up famously while it’s quiet. And I'm not only talking about the ancient Ukrainians ...

    The state is a terrorist, what to take from it. At this rate, I hope that only the military in spirit will remain in the army, the rest of the apartment shalupy will fall off, they will not be able to live under the houseclave sword anywhere every day. Now it’s probably worth the turn to serve in Siberia. Well, in essence, our military leadership needs to do something with its ranks so that a promising innovative one, not in words but in hardware, appears in service, otherwise it will not be able to cope with the adversary. The main thing is that our generals do not become like the Iraqi (tired of fighting and not accepting parades) Americans who surrendered Baghdad.

    My question is simple: WHAT EXACTLY does Kyiv want to achieve by hitting Crimea with long-range missiles? That the Russian authorities will immediately roll up their belongings and run away from the Crimea, and the settlers will immediately follow them, leaving dead and empty cities behind them?
    What effect does Kyiv want to achieve? Prove that he has long-range missiles? We already know that sooner or later the West will give them to him. That's not news.
    Or does Kyiv expect that it has the same immunity to retaliatory retaliatory strikes as NATO territory? Maybe they forgot how in the fall all Kyiv was screaming in fear from rockets and drones exploding daily over their heads? Or how Kyiv plunged into darkness for an indefinite time? Or how they stood for water for half a day?
    I just really became interested - do chubaks have no sense of self-preservation at all, or what?

    For the second day in a row, Mom calls me from Dnepropetrovsk. He is very worried, he says that they are broadcasting on TV that the whole of Crimea is on "air alert", people are packing their bags and running away to the "mainland". And the “zelebobiki” are already forming administrations for Crimea, which are sitting in readiness to be promoted to their place of work.
    Everything is as always - violent fantasies and brazen nonsense. The decision has not yet been made, nothing has been received, and they are already preparing to hold “parades”. !
