‘40 Explosions In 15 Minutes…’: Ukraine Fires U.S.-Supplied HIMARS At Russia For First Time Amid War

Kyiv has used US weapons inside Russia just days after President Biden approved the tactic for defending Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, officials said.

Yehor Chernev – the deputy chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament’s committee on national security, defense and intelligence – said Kyiv used the weapons to destroy Russian missile launchers in the Belgorod region, The New York Times reports. 

It is only fitting on a day we remember D-Day we remind ourselves how war starts. This one is with Russia. Biden has escalated the U.S. involvement by approving Ukraine using our weaponry into Russian territory.

As we concern ourselves with Hunter Biden, this foolishness goes on unchecked with Joe Biden and his reckless behavior. Stumbling and bungling along with his foreign policy.

Now that Biden has pushed Russia and China together, Katie bar the door.

Meanwhile NATO makes plan on how U.S. military men and women could once again save Europe.

“Nato is developing multiple “land corridors” to rush US troops and armor to the front lines in the event of a major European ground war with Russia…”

A reminder of what the whole Ukraine thing is about…. a previous post:

What is left for the Ukrainian people, after the “kinetic action” ends, will merely be a carcass of a country. This after the feasting off of the country by the usual players.

Here we go, bombs away.

At a NATO meeting in Vilnius last year, NATO leaders agreed to develop new plans to ensure the alliance could provide “300,000 troops at high readiness.”

According to The Telegraph, U.S. troops and armor would land at one of five ports in the Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Turkey or Norway from where they would travel through land corridors to NATO countries bordering Ukraine.

These land corridors would be free of bureaucratic local restrictions which in the past have held up the movement of troops and armor, leaving them stuck at borders.

Previous NATO plans only allowed for U.S. troops to land at Rotterdam in the Netherlands, but Ukraine’s experience of long-range missile attacks since the launch of the full-scale invasion has prompted a rethink.

Expanding the number of ports and having multiple land corridors would mean if one was hit, others would still be available to use.

“Everything is created in a way so the necessary resilience exists – robustness, reserves and also redundancies,” Lt Gen Alexander Sollfrank, the chief of NATO’s Joint Support Enabling Command, told The Telegraph.

But concerns remain about NATO’s air defense capabilities that would be needed to protect troops as they move across Europe.

More than two years into Russia’s full-scale war on Ukraine, the air defense capabilities of NATO’s eastern flank are only at 5% of the amount seen as necessary to deter an attack, the Financial Times (FT) reported on May 29, citing sources.

NATO members located in Central and Eastern Europe have publicized plans in recent weeks to improve their collective air defense in response to the Russian threat.

According to unnamed sources who spoke to the FT, the current air defense capabilities of NATO’s eastern flank are far from sufficient.

Air defense is a “major part of the plan to defend eastern Europe from invasion,” a NATO diplomat told the FT.

“And right now, we don’t have that.”
