In 1994, Ukraine had a gigantic nuclear arsenal (3rd after Russia and the US) until it signed the Budapest Memorandum and handed over 1,600 nuclear weapons left over from the former Soviet Union to Russia in exchange for a peace treaty and a guarantee never to be invaded or threatened.

  The Russian military is increasing attacks on Ukrainian arms depots to deprive the country of Western weapons critical to prevailing in the four-month war. But in response, the Ukrainian military is dispersing and decentralizing its weapons arsenal across an array of warehouses in an effort to lessen the potential losses caused by any one Russian strike, said U.S. officials familiar with the strategy. The wider distribution of weapons has attracted more Russian cruise missile strikes in recent weeks, officials said, but has resulted in fewer strikes eliminating large supplies of arms and ammunition. “This is consistent with how one would go about increasing the survivability of the weapons and ammo you need to bring to the front,” said George Barros, a geospatial analyst at the Institute for the Study of War. “Wars are won by logistics."

This is the biggest Russian/Soviet navy setback since the loss of “Marat” in 1941. The missile strike raises serious questions about the effectiveness of the modernization of Russia's entire fleet. This video is from one of the most popular and the strongest propaganda channels. Russians are talking about "going to war for real". As if it was not enough before...
