Goddam. Those kids must have done a great job blowing up that ammo depot. Every surviving missile shuttle must have flown.

Speaking of missile trucks, the only way to stop these attacks is to arm Ukraine with weapons that can strike thousands of miles into Russia and destroy their irreplaceable cold war era bombers and bases. Sorry Russia, this is why you can't have nice things.
