32 Yet another false flag. Missile strikes Kramatorsk, kills 30. Zelensky's aid claims it's a russian "Iskander" missile, Zelensky himself calls it a "Tochka-U" missile. Pictures of the missile confirms it as a "Tochka-U", which are NOT USED by the Russian military.

Russia operates more than 200 Tochka launchers you fucking liar. Why the fuck would Russia not use missiles that are manufactured in Russia?
Because they're really old and have been displaced by much better newer missiles.
are you claiming that Russia doesn't use these missiles anymore?
That's what it means when a weapon system is decommissioned and retired, yes.
Like the US doesn't use Nike missiles or F-117 Nighthawk jets any longer because they are retired.
That doesn't mean you don't have them in storage somewhere.
The tochka-u missles are probably not mothballed because Russia gave them away to Syria and Belarus.
So is that the current Russian narrative that they have given out?
