I find this article employing misdirection tactics
A mystery new weapon may have been used in a strike on the eastern Russian city of Belgorod that damaged a shopping center and left a number of people dead and injured, according to local reports.
Mystery new weapon?
Powerful explosions were reported on Thursday in Belgorod, which houses several Russian military bases and training grounds
Belgorod may be the locale for military bases.. but this strike was entirely on civilians
The news agency cited the Russian defense ministry as accusing Ukraine of attacking the region with Czech RM-70 Vampire multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS). In January, Moscow said it thwarted an attack using the same missiles launched by Kyiv.
So, not a mystery weapon?
It’s interesting that recently Zelensky signed a decree that included Belgorod
Ukraine will put in place new measures to safeguard the “national identity of Ukrainians” living in Russia.
The Ukrainian leader said on Monday that he had signed a decree, “On the Territories of the Russian Federation Historically Inhabited by Ukrainians,” which he said would see the “restoration of truth about the historical past” of Ukraine.
The decree lists several regions of Russia as “historically inhabited by Ukrainians,” including the border regions of Bryansk, Kursk and Belgorod, and Russia’s southern Krasnodar region.
“We must take steps not only to strengthen the unity of Ukraine and our people, but also to act for the unity of rights and freedoms, the truth about Ukrainians, the truth about us, and the truth about our history,” Zelensky said in an address.
The Ukrainian government continues to target civilians in Lugansk and Donetsk to preserve and strengthen unity as well? Striking at civilians seems an odd way to preserve and strengthen unity.
