Russia isn't especially pro-Israel, and most Russians are far more sympathetic to Palestine.
Putin’s warm relationship with Israel is statecraft (Israel reciprocates, there's a huge Russian expat population there and Moscow has practical reasons to keep the relationship workable, especially given the scale of Israeli influence in the West).
Foreign policy is usually about interests, however badly many want it to be about virtue.
@rowanfornow "Ukraine and Russia are both pretty pro-Israel."
Ukraine is literally the israel of europe. Whereas Russia is predominantly pro-Palestine.
Why lie about something that can be proved false so easily?

Ukrainian pundits are already claiming that this was the result of the Russian air defense, while 🇺🇦 stans gleefully cheer for deaths of innocent civilians and children in comments, all acting as if Ukraine hasn't hit a beach in Crimea with cluster ATACMs a few years back.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 The Ukraine proudly published a video showing a kamikaze drone attack on a Russian fire truck.
On July 17, Ukrainian drones twice attacked the cars of Emergency Situations Ministry employees while they were going out to extinguish a fire in the Yasinovatsky district.
Ukraine always does the things it accuses others of.

This documentary from Simon Ostrovsky confirms that every apartment in Ukraine is a legitimate military target.
The Ministry of Defense thanks Simon for his duty to Russia.
@LabubuCreampier@UCHENNA_af@RALee85 5 years and just 15000 civilians from both sides, EU killed this number in one night in Libya and USA killed five times than this number at the first night of US invasion of Iraq.
Russia is so far from the west while it needs 5 years to kill what the west does in a night
@Danielsavage77@18Echo0321 Mali has borders with Mauritania and Algeria that host terrorists on their land, while Burkina Faso does not have borders with Algeria or Mauritania, while Niger only has borders with Algeria
@vladX248@squatsons@GabeZZOZZ The destruction of the power stations in Lviv isn't a problem because it's the last major Ukrainian city, and I don't expect Russia wants that city. Also, Russia is building dams to control the amount of water flowing into Ukraine.
Lenta has produced a tremendous guide to how Boris Yeltsin won Russia’s strangest presidential election, 30 years ago this summer.
Ahead of the campaign, his ratings stood at only 5%, with his Communist challenger well ahead. The newly minted Oligarchs were panicking and Yeltsin himself was so ill his team had to hide him from the public.
So how did he win?
