For more than three years, most of Russia has viewed the war sparked by the Kremlin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine from afar. Now, some say, an audacious attack by Kyiv deep inside Russia means it has arrived on their doorstep.

For more than three years, most of Russia has viewed the war sparked by the Kremlin’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine from afar.

Now, some say, following an audacious attack by Ukraine that saw hordes of drones smuggled into Russia and then deployed on June 1 to wipe out dozens of long-range bombers, it has arrived on their doorstep.

In the Irkutsk, Murmansk, Ryazan, and Ivanovo regions, drones struck air bases, shocking Russian authorities and citizens.

“It was a fiery hell,” residents of the Irkutsk region told RFE/RL’s Siberia Realities.

In Siberia, some 4,000 km away, residents appeared to be shaken.

“Now the war has reached us too,” residents told Siberia Realities.

      Yeah, anyone who isn’t a screaming idiot can see it.

      I’m a Finnish person, in the Finnish reserves. I gladly kill Russians who break international laws, like the pathetic sack of shit Putin is.

      And I can prove that.

      I’m not like [email protected] who claims to be American while sucking Putler’s cock, spreading Russian propaganda.

      From the downvotes and still not receiving an explanation to the first comment, yeah, everyone with a basic education from a developed country would know, yes. I assume that grouping doesn’t involve, among others, you.

      Dare you say any of those things or are you a pussy afraid of getting arrested over writing things online and then “having an accident”?

          Yes, the old “mentally ill people have nothing to contribute”.

          Ever stopped to think about how stupid that fucking argument is, since more intelligence usually means a highers likelyhood of mental disorders?

          Some of these leading professors in bipolar diseases take heavy doses if lithium for their personal bipolar diseases.

          Disregarding that, the implication you’re making is that there aren’t Russian trolls on Lemmy, and definitely not a concerted effort of any sort, ever. And if there are Russian troll on Lemmy, they certainly wouldn’t lie about being Russian trolls. Like [email protected] is always admitting he’s a Russian shill.

          Oh no wait, he’s always pretending to be an American… How weird, isn’t it?

          Edit, weird how you stopped accusing me of being a Russian troll? (also inb4 Russians calling it nazi cross, it’s a cross used in military symbols all over the world, extensively in Russian military as well)

            No matter what else you are, you’re definitely a troll. Reality is worse off with the existence of your posts here.

              There is a ignore button for you to use.

              I’ve always found it enlightening when people assert their personal feelings as objective truth. Tells a lot about you, as a person.

              So, you don’t believe in Russian disinfo?

              Why did you stop calling me a Russian troll?

              Why can’t you answer ANYTHING?

                Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

                  Whst exactly do you think I’ve asserted at any point in this thread, except for personal facts about me, like that I’m part of the Finnish Defence Forces?

                  I’ve explicitly stated I’ve not asserted anyone being definitely something. So please, do enlighten me?

                  Perhaps your English isn’t yet on the level where you can distinguish “assert” and “imply”?

                    This whole thread is just you refusing to understand plain english. Literally doubling down on your stupidity with every post.
