Putin Deploys 'Thermobaric' Bombs That Can Rupture Enemy Lungs To Ukraine (Pix) by WriterNig: 2:50pm On Feb 27, 2022

Russian President Vladimir Putin making a speech on Friday on Russia’s state media.

Vladimir Putin has deployed thermobaric bombs, a multiple rocket launcher system which 'sucks the air out of its victims' into Ukraine as his war of occupation intensifies.

The TOS-1 Buratino fires fuel-air 'thermobaric' rockets which, when they explode, consume all oxygen in the blast zone, killing everyone in the area.

Victims can appear to have no visible external injuries but will have suffered massive internal damage.


The TOS-1 Buratino multiple rocket launcher, pictured here in June 2020 during Moscow's Victory Day military parade, is believed to have been deployed in Ukraine.

The weapon is based on the Soviet-era T-72 main battle tank with the main turret removed and replaces with a rocket launcher system holding 30, 8.5-inch rockets.

The system was developed in the mid-1980s and the unguided rockets have a two-mile range.

Witnesses claim to have seen the weapon system crossing into Ukraine from Belarus, possibly heading towards Kyiv.

The indiscriminate weapon is very effective against people and lightly-armoured vehicles causing devastation within a 1,000ft diameter area.


The weapon system can fire 30-8.5inch rockets within 15 seconds. The thermobaric rockets have a range of approximately two miles with each warhead causing a 1,000-ft diameter blast zone.

Russians describe the TOS-1 Buratino as a 'flamethrower' but military experts say it fires a 'wall of napalm towards its victims.

CNN reported that one of the terrifying weapon systems was seen on the back of a transport truck in Belgorod, near the northern Ukrainian border.

Charlie Gao, defence and national security commentator told The Sun: 'The Buratino and Solntsepek are very useful weapons for a military that might be going into urban combat with little regard for collateral damage.'


A Ukrainian soldier inspects the piece of Russian hardware which was no longer operational.

However, Putin's invasion has been getting bogged down by stronger-than-expected resistance from Ukrainian defence forces.

Kyiv's European allies are sending advanced weapon systems to support the defence against Russia.

That's just a threat. If Russian army can fire this nuclear weapons to Ukraine it would cause mass disasters and something more than wars could break out.

Why not infiltrate kyiv with his army if they're strong to that extent?

Help us beg Putin make he no use that thing for Ukraine oh shocked

Wetin we do this crazy endtime people sef....

China and America gave us covid 19 that almost crippled all of our economy and killing many prominent people

Now Russia and Ukraine wants to Nuke the world

If the West and America truly love Ukrainians as they claim, they should either send in trained forces to fight with Ukrainian soldiers or they should call for a peace dialogue between the two countries... Sending weapons to civilian to battle Russian forces is suicidal, also relying on sanctions while people die daily is fruitless



Countries like Russia, Cuba , Iran , Chinaand Northkorea runs a fortress economy and are used to sanctions..

It was like when EU and USA sanctioned Nigeria during Abacha regime, soon Nigerians became creative.. we refined our own crude oil, sold our crude oil through private individuals at international market, laundered money internationally, we replaced Foreign rice with local rice and white maize, used saw dust as cooking gas, drank cold zobo and kunu instead of Coke and Fanta, we watched NTA network news instead of CNN, we enjoyed Local league matches like Enyimba vs Shootings Star instead of English Premiership match

The West and America also sanctioned Goodluck Jonathan for rejecting Gays and Lesbians, and blocked all Arms deal to Nigeria in the heat of Boko Haram crisis, Jonathan still sourced weapons in South Africa using Pastor Ayo Oristejefor's private jet as cargo plane

I hate seeing anything .uk, CNN, BBC and other western news outlets as sources.

These are fake news. They have been bursted countless times on twitter and YouTube for manufacturing their stories. They are now clamping down on channels that carries divergent news about the conflict. The West should know their media monopoly won't last forever.

Western media hypocrisy
1. Afghanistan citizens making cocktail bombs to defend their lands = Bomb them, they are terrorists

2. Ukrainians citizens making cocktail bombs to defend their lands = wow! Brave citizens fighting to protect their lands from russian invaders.

It is not a nuclear weapon. I think Russia is being slowed down cos they don't want human casualties unlike the West that will call defending citizens terrorists and bomb them all. Russia is more humane than the West put together.

Coward.

The Ukrainians wont still cower- they are holding strong. No major Ukrainian city is under Russian control.

The thieving Putin is losing the battle already not to talk of the war

In the unlikely event he is able to take the capital, he should get ready for war of attrition and just like the Russians fled Afghanistan in the 1980s, putin soldiers would be forced out of Ukraine

Putin has biten more than he can chew.
Like hitler, he must be regretting his ill-thought out plans

Foolish mofo

And all the U.S.A haters here, don't quote me. If you were denied a U. S visa ..apply again but go with the right documents. Don't forge grin

The U.S. invaded Afghanistan, iraq, Vietnam and Lbyia with millions killed and nobody raised any objection. The double standard is striking. Only the truth can end a war. The West should stop instigating conflicts

The blood of Ukraine civilians are on NATO and USA, rather then them to de-escalate the situation they are busy fueling it by supplying weapons to what end? So they can be more deaths?

Shame to USA
Shame to EU
