Ukraine counter-offensive: Heavy machinery spotted sifting through the ruins of a barracks flattened by a precise Ukrainian strike




Heavy machinery was spotted today sifting through the ruins of a barracks flattened by a precise Ukrainian strike in recent days, with emergency crews soon realizing that not a brick was left standing and that nothing could have survived.

A building in the small town of Makiivka, in the Donestk region, was targeted by a HIMARS barrage, killing up to 400 recently drafted Russian conscripts stationed there.

Russian officers had apparently thought that housing hundreds of troops alongside a huge ammo stock was a good idea. The pinpoint Ukrainian strike demolished the building, with hundreds of soldiers dying in the ensuing conflagration.

The fallout from the latest disaster afflicting the bumbling Russian army continues today, with many lamenting the tremendous loss of life because of the sheer ineptitude of a couple of officers.

Meanwhile, Ukrainians are celebrating the high score with a comparatively low expenditure of valuable HIMARS projectiles.
