A Ukrainian ATACMS long-range missile strike reportedly killed over 100 Russian soldiers in Luhansk, showing the range of Ukraine's new missiles.
  • Ukrainian forces took out more than 100 Russian soldiers with an ATACMS missile, per OSINT analysts.
  • Four ATACMS were used to target the group, one analyst said.
  • The soldiers would have been out of reach of Ukraine’s shorter-range ATACMS missiles.

A Ukrainian ATACMS long-range missile strike killed more than 100 Russian soldiers in an occupied region 50 miles from the front line, according to OSINT and military analysts.

Ukrainian forces targeted a Russian military training area some 50 miles behind the front line in the occupied Luhansk Oblast in eastern Ukraine, per an assessment by The Institute for the Study of War.

According to two aerial geolocated videos posted on Wednesday by X user Osinttechnical, an account affiliated with the Centre for Naval Analyses, Ukraine appeared to strike the training area with three US-supplied M39 ATACMS tactical ballistic missiles.

      Being not a fan of someone saying “good” in regards to the death of 100 human beings is not equitable to being a fan of Putin. That is what we call a non sequitur; they do not relate to each other in a way that supports you making that conclusion.

      Caring for working class people dying is being a Putin fan?

      @iAmTheTot comments:

      1. Nah I’ll care about all humans now, thanks.
      1. I don’t have a direct line to Putin to take it up with him.

      2a. Valuing human life isn’t coming across as approval of Putin’s actions, is it? Cause that would be a weird conclusion to draw, imho.

      1. Yes, I think it is weird. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is unconscionable and tragic. This view does not conflict with expressing remorse that 100 human beings were killed in the blink of an eye. The fact that you think holding the latter opinion means the person must be making a political statement is sad.

      Owner class will always make more wars for working class people to die, US does the same.

      We must not forget humans are being killled due to more endless wars that are pushed by the owner class.

      Owner class and their lackeys will always root for: Profit over people.

      Hawkeye: War isn’t Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse.

      Father Mulcahy: How do you figure, Hawkeye?

      Hawkeye: Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?

      Father Mulcahy: Sinners, I believe.

      Hawkeye: Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them - little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.
