I heard that there were two underwater explosions, the first was the one in the video, and another a few hours later. Russia did reopen the bridge a short time later claiming that no damage was done. However, by most accounts, this was reckless as the bridge was probably badly damaged thus reducing its safety margins. At the very least, it was also was not enough time to do a proper inspection and analysis of the damage done. After the drone nuclear bomber plane attacks two days previously, Russia claimed that the planes were only damaged and would be easily repaired. But we know from the satellite and drone imagery that at least 14 were completely destroyed. Like ash on the runaway destroyed. NATO confirmed the same. I reckon it’s the same with the bridge. Russia downplays the damage to save face, when it’s probably f*cked and not safe to be in full use.
Drones are ideal to destroy planes and the like, all you really need is to start a fire.
Destroying reinforced concrete like what is in that bridge isn't going to be easy with a drone.
meanwhile over in the 4th reich… where Elon’s meltdown has begun..
South Koreas backing of Ukraine is depressing given what North Korea are doing for Russia.
Especially with the new change in leadership today.
News of the Russian retaliation!
Do we know it was drones? I read a few online suggesting it was them submarine drones but no strong confirmation. Kiev said it was over 1000kg of mines carried in a “special operation” from what I remember.
This is great news. We were all waiting for it. 300M dollars donated to the republicans/trump for what? Ukraine could have had a friendly US administration instead of what’s there now.

Drone strikes reported at the airport in Bryansk, Russia. Details are still emerging.
Something is burning…….
I guess we now know what Putin has on him from his time in Russia
Aside I thought they move remaining planes to Novaya Zemlya they went to literally the farthest point from Ukraine
I suppose so, but it is a democracy, and it is a very long way from Ukraine.
NK is led by a monarch-like figure who has absolute power, can put his people on starvation rations to funnel resources into making weapons, use them as slaves and send them to war solely in order to suck up to Putin and get technology, oil, food etc.
Ukraine's armed forces continue their efforts to disarm putin's terrorists:

Also evidence of careless smoking near Engels air base:
Russia continues to attack cities which has no military use. Ukraine military targets. Like Hitler bombing London and not the RAF airports. Thick as 2 planks.
It’s worse than that
It be like Hitler bombing London while his panzers got as far as Paris only to get their asses handed to them and pushed back all way to border
Only for three years later the residents be subjected to @LordHawHawster69 boasting on radio m about the couple of fields lost today in Alsac~Lorraine and Belgium the inevitable Nazi win
Several killed by the Russian scum in Kyiv overnight. More tragic loss of innocent life. This war has to end soon
taking the school yard analogy. The principal would be sacked / up in court if he let the fight continue. What happens if one of the children gets a broken jaw or whatever. In all cases the ‘teacher in charge’ would step in and ‘ immediately call a halt to proceedings ans find out what it’s all about. The patrents might be called in, a suspension or two could arise, reports would have to be written , visit to a doctor organised, etc, etc.
BUT the fight would CERTAINLY not be allowed to continue and appropriate follow up action would be taken
Trump could not have picked a worst analogy
On a day he himself is having a fight over the future leadership of the MAGA cult
Trump, the bleeding heart that he is, banging on about the tragic loss of life to Zelensky and the urgency of stopping the killing, the senseless, senseless killing. And then a short time later, sitting on his throne in front of his fawning media, thinking out loud how it might be best to let Russia and Ukraine keep fighting for a while.
The speed at which his logic (I know), focus (I know!) and judgment can do a complete 180 degress u-turn is astounding. And people talk about him deserving some kind of peace prize?? He's literally dragging his ass on forcing Putin to the negotiating table at the cost of innocent, civilian, Ukrainian lives. There's no reason for Ukrainin civilians to be dying. The front lines are in fields in the middle of nowhere and Russia has plenty of intel on Ukrainian military targets. It's been a deliberate strategy by Putin since day 1, yet knowing this, 24hrTACO posits that maybe its a good idea to let the war rumble on.
The Russian response (so far) is probably tamer than it could have been though. Loss of a large portion of their "defensive aircraft" looks to have helped. Also, one destroyed and 2 damaged Iskander defensive systems.
Also, @Apiarist suggests there may have been a failed Oreshink launch too.
Really interesting. I wonder if the AFU have taken the design of the foundation piles into account on that attack?
I'm imagining that if just one of the foundation areas of that central bridge were to fail, then that whole thing would lean sidewides and eventually "capsize" into the Sea. I'm no expert at all, but could it be that the AFU are counting on the Russians to fail to do the repairs they need, and then count on time, winds and traffic loads to finish off the bridge for them?
If that bridge starts to lean to one side, I'm pretty sure that it is beyond the Russian's means to prevent a collapse.
Didn’t the Russians do the same during last attack claiming there’s no damage (wasn’t there a Putin clone on video driving it?) only for bridge to be unusable by rail and car for over a year
In this case they can’t just ring up the German engineers who built the bridge and ask how to repair the damaged foundations
Let's suppose he does follow a "let them fight it out for a while, they'll eventually come to their senses" approach.
Wouldn't it be best to slap as hard sanctions as possible on Russia and then come back in 6 months? Much higher chance then that Russia would need to come to the table.
Use the frozen Russian assets gradually to sustain Ukraine's defence.
I despise Musk as much as the next man.
But hopefully he can help to undermine Trump and eventually accelerate his departure from the White House.
And Musk is at least right that Trump's economic policies are insane and hurt Americans. I wonder will Trump still be there in 3.5 years.
I hope you're right and that the relatively "tame" response is a sign of incapability rather than the real "revenge" still being planned and gleefully announced by Trump. Remember Prigozhin: Putin likes to take his time when humiliated and let false sense of safety arise before striking. I just hope Ukrainian defences are optimised over the coming weeks
6th of June 1944 “hell yeh let’s go get some Nazis”
6th of June 2025 “lol, watch the Nazis fight it out in White House”
It is all out war at this stage. Musk linking Trump to Epstein.
Meanwhile
Yeah they will be upping their defences hopefully but honestly i think besides "da bomb" there is probably nothing Russia can do to respond besides hitting a few hospitals and schools. Putin isn't playing 4D chess and waiting for the right time. Russia is a lot weaker than anyone thinks it's just such a pity Ukraine have been let down so badly by Europe and the US
They did fire a record number of drones and missiles last night but most were intercepted
This article goes into great detail into just how badly the Russian bomber fleet got screwed up and how it limited their options
Russians continue to target civilians while Ukrainians continue to go for military targets that are often expensive and irreplaceable
Aside; on bright side Russians might not have enough bombers now to fly up and down our west coast just for the laughs
Some good detail in there, worth posting for those that don't click on the links -
Ukrainian defense sources told Defense Express that Russia was only able to scramble seven strategic bombers — five Tu-95MS and two Tu-160s — for the strike.Crucially, these aircraft were loaded nearly to their full payload capacity, carrying on average five missiles each, in stark contrast to previous strikes where bombers often carried just one to three missiles. This marks the first such maximal loading since August 2024, when 11 Tu-95MS aircraft fired 77 Kh-101s in Russia’s then-largest combined strike.Even so, the effort fell short. Ukrainian air defenses intercepted 30 of the 36 Kh-101 cruise missiles, and both R-500s were also shot down. Of the six ballistic missiles, four were intercepted, and two failed to reach their targets.This aggressive bomber loading indicates a shift from Russia’s previous strategy of conserving airframe hours and extending the service life of its limited fleet.Notably, the Tu-160—Moscow’s most advanced strategic bomber—was used in two consecutive strikes, on May 26 and June 6, 2025.Before that, the aircraft had been used in combat only sporadically since 2023: on May 18, 2023, and November 17, 2024. The back-to-back deployment suggests the Kremlin is increasingly pressed to maintain the scale and optics of its long-range strikes.

It's been called for a few times on this thread but it really is time for Europe to start scrambling more planes to "test" Russian response times. All clocking up flight hours. Only one side will be diligently servicing their airframes. And especially in the window when a Russian act of aggression is imminent.
Ghislane Maxwell said Epstein had recordings of Trump. I suspect that's what Putrid has. I recently tried to work out where Epstein's money came from and drew a credibility blank. He went from teaching maths in a secondary school to supposedly someone paying him well over $100m to manage their investments of a few billion. I don't buy it. That rate of pay seems insane. Another source of 'income' seems to have been 'loans' from JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank who both paid several tens of millions as settlements where they didn't admit guilt or involvement and the money was just to leave them out of the fallout.
I suspect Epstein ran a blackmail scheme for the FSB/Mossad and big Business, and that that was the real source of his money. Ghislanes father, Robert Maxwell supposedly had 'connections' with Mossad and the KGB.
Notice how super keen Trump has been to support Israel and Orcistan.
Water sports would never be blackmail material given how actual rape charges, sexual assaults, the Stormy Daniels affair and multiple criminal convictions did nothing to dent his political career. I have always thought that only pedophilia, murder/manslaughter or tax crimes would be sufficient to blackmail Trump. All three wouldn't surprise me, unfortunately.
