Why in hell would a Russian get in a flying machine over Ukraine because by the looks of all the vids it’s insanity to try. If lucky you can eject before crashing but by the looks of this vid the pilot might have parachuted right into an inferno of blazing wreckage. Just not his day.

is russia building a dirty bomb to use on ukraine ?

a dirty bomb in the dam to irradiate the water would be really bad

will russia blow up the dam ?

iran needs to be punished for selling weapons to russia

why would russia want to use a dirty bomb ?
to create a no mans land on its front line above crimea ?

russia probably want to create more media declaring that ukraine is a terrorist to try and convince more russians to enlist in the army

more russian men have fled russia than the russian military have been able to conscript

what city would russian do a false flag dirty bomb in ?

If legit, I expect it would be detonated on a Russian annexed part of Ukraine that the former has or is about to lose back to the latter. The "Russians" exposed to the radiation would actually be Ukrainians otherwise glad to be liberated. The toxic landscape would serve as a barrier or impediment to further Ukrainian troop advancement in the applicable region.

Or more likely, Shoigu is just shopping war-porn fantasy as a futile attempt to stop or slow aid to Ukraine.

Yeah, they might do that, with respect to a Russian city. Claim terrorists were captured before they could detonate the device. Safest con for stirring up patriotism.


Disinformation suggests Russia's use of a low-yield nuclear weapon is at hand

Ukraine preparing nuclear explosion as anti-Russian provocation

What follows is NewsGuard's summary and translation of top news stories from Russia's state TV Channel One. NewsGuard presents these stories in the order that they appear on the program.

INTRO: "Dirty bomb." This is the name of low-yield, but no less dangerous, nuclear weapons. The Kyiv regime's plans to use this weapon on the territory of Ukraine were reported Monday morning by RIA Novosti news agency, citing credible sources in various countries, including Ukraine. The ultimate aim is to blame the use of weapons of mass destruction on Russia, and thereby cause a strong international backlash.

The dirty nuclear bomb is nearly ready, and the Kyiv regime is ready to use it. Under the direction of Western supervisors, Kyiv is preparing to carry out this plan.

The leadership of the Eastern Mining and Processing Plant, located in the city of Zhovti Vody, Dnepropetrovsk region, as well as the Kyiv Institute for Nuclear Research, was tasked with building the "dirty bomb." Work on it is already at the final stage.

Staff at the office of the President of Ukraine, on behalf of Volodymyr Zelensky, are secretly in contact with representatives of the U.K., discussing the possible transfer of nuclear weapons components to the Kyiv authorities.

Recently, Zelensky has repeatedly called on NATO to make preventive nuclear strikes on Russia. No one is prepared to unleash a nuclear war because of an unstable Ukrainian president. However, there are signs that Ukraine is preparing its dirty bomb with outside help... (MORE - details)

Ben Wallace denies Russia's 'dirty bomb' theories: Defence Secretary hits back at Kremlin's claim that Ukraine is planning a false flag attack in rare call with Russian counterpart - as Kyiv hits out at 'absurd Russian lies'
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...rpart.html

KEY POINTS: UK's Ben Wallace denied Russian allegations that Ukraine would plant a 'dirty bomb'. The claims were made in a call with Russia's defence secretary Sergei Shoigu. Ukraine's Dmytro Kuleba said the claims were 'as absurd as they are dangerous'. President Zelensky asserted that the allegations were unlikely to be believed. A 'dirty bomb' is a device that uses explosives to scatter radioactive waste.

Kyiv is currently without electric power Monday (Oct 24) evening. I've heard that about 1/3 of Ukraine's electric power generation capacity is offline due to air strikes on the plants and distribution network. When we remember that Ukraine is a large country about the size of France, that's a lot of electrical generation capacity.
