Hundreds Dead, Propagandists In Panic: What Is Known About AFU Strike On Makiivka

“New Year's gift” for the Russian occupiers.

On the night of January 1, the Ukrainian military attacked the invaders, located in the building of vocational school #19 in the occupied Makiivka, with HIMARS.

As a result of three targeted strikes, the occupiers of the Russian Federation lost, according to the Stratcom of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, 700 soldiers: 400 dead and 300 wounded.

The Charter97.org website has collected everything that is known about the effective strike of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the moment.

Three commanders and a blow to the chiming clock

Blogger Faschik Donetsky writes that the Armed Forces of Ukraine “hit the right place”: “Santa came in with packages — about 350-400 corpses. Over three hundred wounded. Three high-ranking commanders from the Russian Federation were destroyed.”

Many died under the rubble. According to him, the destroyed mobilized were from Samara. They were planned to be thrown into the offensive on January 1-2.

According to local residents, at 13.00 the invaders were still taking out the corpses of the liquidated mobilized soldiers. “Everything is sealed. Photography is prohibited. The bodies were just lying on the street. I saw them in the morning. One was lying on a sidewalk near the tuberculosis hospital, ” the locals commented.

Ex-leader of the “DPR” Igor Girkin confirms the information about the huge losses of the Russian invaders:

“The facility, which housed the N unit, consisting mainly of mobilized citizens of the Russian Federation, was almost completely destroyed as a result of the detonation of the ammunition stored in the same building. Almost all the military equipment that stood right next to the building without the slightest sign of disguise was also destroyed.

In terms of the number of victims, there are still no final figures, since many people are listed as missing (remained under the rubble).

In any case, the number of dead and wounded is up to many hundreds (approximate figures of the “cargoes 200” are available, but I will not voice them).”

The BAZA Telegram channel, which is known to be close to the Russian security forces, writes that the blow came when the soldiers sat down at the festive table. Also, Bezsonov, Deputy Minister of Information of the “DPR”, also reported about the very fact of the strike on the building of the vocational school in Makiivka.

The panic of propagandists and the trial of Shoigu

Russian war correspondents fell into panic after the liquidation of the occupants' base. Charter97.org examined what propagandists write.

“HIMARS hit an educational building. Mobilized people were there.

There were a significant number of people killed and wounded. The rubble was still being removed in the evening.

After the strikes on the large ammunition and fuel depots, they started to relocate the depots to avoid large losses of material ammunition in the event of a strike. As a result, the number of strikes against large ammunition and fuel depots dramatically reduced.

Incompetence and an inability to learn from war remains a serious problem,” writes one of Russia's largest publics dedicated to the war in Ukraine.

“Why was the enemy given an opportunity to hurt us? Why was the decision made to deploy personnel in this particular way? Who made it?” another Russian military correspondent urges to look for those guilty.

“First, there come stupid orders of the military bureaucracy, which have nothing to do with combat reality, then the deployment of personnel in a building that even a gun artillery can reach,” the Russian propagandist complains.

Some propagandists even offer to bring Russian Minister of Defence Sergey Shoigu to trial. Russian milblogger Zastavny writes:

“Allowing the enemy to kill DOZENS (?) of mobs [mobilized soldiers— edit.] at once in the most stupid place for the squad location — everyone already knows it, I mean the Makiivka vocational school. This is really a miscalculation to bring him to the tribunal with the supreme penalty result.

But let me now tell you an example with the Stories from around the World: the top military leadership of the fabulous country “R”, namely the National Guard, the Minister of Defence and almost all of his deputies — as if only by some miracle remain irremovable for ten months of an extremely unsuccessful war and for hundreds of extremely unprofessional decisions, they are enemies of the people. They are super-successful only in two things: the theft of people's billions and the industrial destruction of the people of the country “R”. They will go down in history only as a bunch of patented “downs” for their military “merits”, the propagandist writes.
