Two missiles sent. The best evidence that it was an Ukrainian attack are the reports of the rest of the ships moving further away from Ukraine, as reported by US and verifiable by OS Int. That is a fuc**ng ton of money.
Remember those yachts being seized around the world... a couple of those is worth roughly as much as that missile cruiser. Isn't it amazing how during Putins reign "individuals" were able to amass such wealth but the state can't build any new warships of that size and is using 40-years old Soviet ships with defense systems that can be defeated by a Turkish drone.
Speaking of Bayraktar, a couple of weeks ago Kremlin claimed to have
destroyed 35 of 36 that Ukraine allegedly had, which is such an obvious nonsense (Ukraine never had that many; and definitely had more than one remaining). Since then they claim to have
destroyed a few more. Those
negative remaining drones must be some sort of spacetime anomaly, which would explain the spontaneous combustion of the ill-fated warship
Watch! Evidence of Putin having a hidden physics laws singularity generator coming from official sources (probably from the "Ministry of Dark Humor and Fantasylands") that allows them to destroy more weapons than Ukraine really had. How do you dare to doubt!
...
As far as I remember Sergei Pugachev, a former friend of Putin, said that the reason for the state of the army is the reason why they have all this wealth. Putin and "his people" sell everything the Soviet army had to offer and use the money for their own benefit. They even stripped electronics and sold it for scrap....
At this point, I would need proof that any of Putin's tanks actually carried electronics in the first place.
...
And what about Kramatorsk? I see everything quickly calmed down there after the serial number surfaced. Provocation failed? But there 50 people died from a missile strike with cluster munitions on their own civilians. An ugly story, it would be nice to deal with it and punish the perpetrators. However, I think that the direct executors have already been demilitarized, Russian intelligence officers in the field work well and Russian missiles hit right on the target.
Like I already said, these serial numbers doesn't prooves that missile belongs to Ukraine. Few examples. Here is Tochka U used by Ukraine in Snezhnoe in 2014:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37ZmIfyePd4 If you pay attention to serial number, difference between these tow is just 25 digits and it's very likely that these missiles were made during Soviet times when Ukraine and Russia was one country.
...
The serial number only proves that someone painted numbers on that weapon at some point in time. As for the rest, if Putin had any real proof, satellite recording, or any real evidence it would already be there.
...
The strategy of the 'defenders' did indeed seem to be to use multiple civilian buildings and keep the civilians hostage in them while doing so. At least that's my analysis based on the footage I've seen and the pretty much universal testimony of the liberated civilians.
Source? Please, do not say it comes from any Russian Ministry pleaaaase...
Not really about the hostages, however at the end of March 2022, the Washington Post published critical statements by Western experts that Ukrainian troops were placing military equipment in residential areas.
...
That is not your claim. You are saying that the Ukrainian army is helding civils hostage, which is something completely different.
...
For objectivity it's better to study the answers of officials, and not forum members.
The Russian side commented on
this strike. I think that independent professional military experts will be able to confirm or refute this information.
According to a source in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation,
the nature of the damage suggests that he was hit by an anti-aircraft missile,
which is clearly visible on the video.
According to a source reported by TASS, it is obvious that the incident occurred during
the reflection of a night rocket attack on Ukrainian military facilities.
During the launch, there was a failure in the missile guidance system of the Ukrainian Buk-M1
medium-range anti-aircraft missile system, after which the missile hit the corner of a residential building.

Forum members are to be ignored because they would not be objective and do not know enough. And all coming from Putin's "Ministry of Dark Humour and Fantasyland tales".
Please, serve me that sh*t with some fries. Seriously, all the efforts to establish some short of doubts about the facts have no chance of working with anyone with a minimal sense of reality. How the f*ck would you believe a Russian Ministry source after they repeatedly said they were not going to invade Ukraine!
