The "dirty bomb" map being posted today from the Russian MoD is literally the EXACT same one that was released on August 18th in regards to the potential false flag on Zaporizhzhia NPP
1/ I do not personally believe that there are any real indications yet that the Russian dirty bomb accusations are a precursor to an escalation involving nuclear weapons. As many have mentioned they have made similar claims multiple times in Syria involving chemical weapons.
2/ Currently, I believe that this is still a propaganda move aimed at applying pressure on the west, which may have worked in some limited capacity.
3/ At this time Russian threats of nuclear weapon use are still very ambiguous. This is in part due to the fact that there has not yet been a situation where the use of such weapons would fall squarely in line with the Russian nuclear doctrine.
Russia has released what it claims are the x-ray images of the truck suspected of carrying the bomb that blew up the Kerch Strait Bridge.
According to the cargo manifest they also released it was carrying rolls of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene edge banding
The truck and trailer visible in the X-ray images is not the same truck as is visible in the CCTV camera footage released showing the truck being inspected though.
The truck visible in the CCTV footage is an International ProStar with a double rear axle. The truck in the x-ray image only had one.
Photos being shared of IRIS-T platforms at a rest stop in Poland just under 5 hours away from Lviv. By now these systems could be anywhere in Ukraine and soon be ready to intercept Russian missiles and aircraft.
As you can see from the Rybar watermark it is literally taken from the Telegram of a Russian Military blogger.
Everyone already knows and it was clearly taken hours if not days ago.
Judging by the camouflage pattern these look to be platforms originally intended to fulfill an order to Egypt being rerouted to Ukraine.
This image shows some scorching on the side of the intact span near the center where the truck was as the time of the explosion. The scorching is more severe near the top/road, again pointing to an explosion above/on the road at around the center of the span.
At the time of the explosion the wind at Kerch Airport 11km northwest of the blast site was blowing at around 19km/h from the ENE direction. This direction corresponds exactly with "right to left" on the bridge and explains why debris was moving in that direction as it came down.
The wind in the middle of the Kerch Straight at the time would probably have been even stronger, amplifying this effect. The wind continued to blow in that direction throughout the day which was seen on later photos and videos from the site.
