To be honest,i always spelt it Kiev.
Only started it's real spelling on here,as i was sick of being corrected.
I'm surprised nobody has pulled me on "defence"...as in Air Defense.

Bravery at it's finest....
Not my words.
Encircled and under relentless attack, enemy grenades rained down into the dugout Oleksandr and his brothers defended. The first grenade came. Oleksandr threw himself upon it, shielding his comrades with his body. Then came another. Again, he absorbed the blast, refusing to let death reach his brothers.
As the enemy continued their assault, Oleksandr’s fallen body remained at the entrance, still protecting those behind him. Every grenade thrown after was intercepted by his final act of defiance.
Oleksandr Khomiak gave everything so that others might live.
Eternal glory to the heroes.

Who cares? Unless Russia is launching a nuke, it doesn’t matter because they are completely inaccurate. The ICBM/MRBM Russia launched at Dnipro had dummy warheads and a CEP of 250 metersI get it, they just don’t know how they can escalate anymore. It’s a sad feeling for them
The missiles that were fired had a CEP of 250 meters. They are inaccurate for anything that’s not a nuke. In Dnipro, it appears that they used dummy warheads; there were no large explosions, not even those of Kalibr size. What’s the point of doing this? I get threats and intimidation, but continuing it is just a waste of ICBM/MRBMs. Even if they manage to put a conventional warhead in the missile, it will miss by 250 meters or more most of the time. There is no point in using a $30 million ICBM missile.
It would be much more practical to use Kh-22 or Kinzhal.If they want to launch its ICBMs in Ukraine, they can go ahead and do it; they just miss most of the time and will be burning their limited number of ICBMs that are meant for nukes.
Sometimes even striking civilians and make Russia look even more of a terorrist country. There seems to be no point of continuing this past the initial strike that was intended as a threat. We get Russia wants to escalate and respond somehow, but this is for show

Propaganda value clearly.
An Iskander missile costs $3m a pop ICBMs $20m minimum.

The nonce in the Kremlin has some deep seated insecurity issues. His country has chucked a lot more than what ever atams and Storm shadow are falling on Russian territory at this moment in time. A head of state going on to tv to address his nation bragging about how good their new missile is whilst his population experiences hyper inflation and everything they own and worked for ends up worth nothing to fund his vanity war.
