I could see them being marines since I would imagine that you'd need some actual infantry there if the position is to be used to intercept and search ships and the like. 80 seems like an overstatement though. If I had to guess, they probably had like one platoon there with 40-50 marines who worked on rotation with other marine platoons, and then a semi-permanent force of 13 border patrol personnel. Basically something like this.

A ship comes in once a month with supplies and a fresh platoon
Takes relieved platoon back to port
Border patrol personnel come and go regularly on a small skiff
Nah, according to Ukrainian sources that's the regular garrison on the island since 2007, it's that size mainly due to the fact Romania tried to annex it in the 90s when it was discovered that it was sitting on top of a shitload of natural gas,

Because of its location, Snake Island affected the maritime boundary between the two countries. If Snake Island was an island, its continental shelf area would be considered Ukrainian waters. If it was an islet, in accordance with international law, the maritime boundary between Romania and Ukraine would not take it into consideration. Romania claimed that Ukraine was developing Snake Island to prove it was an island, rather than an islet

Jesus fucking Christ the Q spergs about the fucking bioweapons and the fucking kids and dadda dadda dadda just because no one ever caught whatever fucking family member banged the living shit out of you doesnt mean that you should follow every single insane goddamn thing posted on the fucking internet holy shit follow the plan into a goddamn book you fucking SPEEEEEEEEERGS moti

eta: talk about the fucking weather that they are going to have to deal with or what the transport for fuel and ammunition looks like or fucking what species of animal is going to suffer if youre so fucking bored in the downtime but goddamnit if I have to actually ignore niggers who are just so shitflinging crazy they sound like they belong at a bus stop I'm going to scream
 
Out of curiosity, why “Z, O, and V”? Do they mean something in Russian?
Latin characters that couldn't be confused with any type of Ukrainian markings, only thing known for sure is Z units are coming from Crimea and V units are coming from Belarus, don't know where O units are.
The first thing that popped into my head was they're referring to historic Cossack hosts; Zaporozhian, Orenburg, Volga.

No you don't. At all. Actually you're completely incapable of critical thought. You can only repeat mainstream talking points and throw snark.

Thermite doesn't make things disappear though. Gas, liquid, solid. Where does it go? It doesn't turn the calcium in concrete into molten vaporized plasma to be carried off by the trade winds. It isn't magic and it doesn't contain enough energy. Not by a longshot.
Could be, not enough info to make a call. My point is that a biolab isn't a whole lot different from a nuclear silo in terms of how bad it would be to just ignore while you're trying to end the country that owns it, you don't need a grand narrative about secret motives and backroom deals to explain why Russia gives a shit about capturing them.
A greenhouse is technically a biolab if we want to split hairs here. I don't understand why we are taking known liars and schitzos at face value here. There are more peaceful applications of research facilities than not. I pointed out it's most likely use militarily, listening.

People forget how fucking mundane laboratories and research stations actually are.
 
You are alleging that a super secret bioweapons lab was set up in an Eastern European shithole. Said shithole is next door neighbors to a country that is a rival power to the owners of said lab. Said shithole is also contested territory, and lost a chunk of itself not even a decade ago to that rival power. Yet this lab has not been moved following Crimea. You also asserted Putins reason for invading included taking down these facilities. Despite the clear rhetoric of taking back rightful clay. And took out a bioweapon lab. With fucking explosives instead of securing with ground troops.

>be USA
>make new sekret bioweapons lab
>Eastern Europe sounds good
>next door to Russia
>Russia making noises of taking over this country
>perfect location
>Russia annexes Crimea
>don't care
>Russia builds up troops on borders
>still don't care
>no boots on the ground protecting facility

ayy lmao
That actually sounds like the best place to make weapons which are fucking nasty and a risk to have, since nobody cares if the weapons accidentally kill the natives and they're right by your target
 
lol are you suggesting this filthy kike has the right to cause EVEN ONE SINGLE Ukranian to die because he's a coward?
He is the elected leader of the country if they didn’t want to die for him they could just give him up themselves it doesn’t seem like they choose to do that. In fact it seems like they want Putin to fuck off mostly.

lol that must be why every element of the ukranian armed forces that isn't intensely kiked is surrendering immediately

It would be okay if A.) you didn’t require putting all your eggheads right where your enemy could grab them. B.) you didn’t have a giant nation full of empty land like deserts and badlands where literally noone lives you could research in total secrecy and keep things secure and away from silly invasions.

You can go to Africa where said country isn't bordered by fucking Russia. The west doesn't care about blacks without a political reason.

This appears to be a computer generated article that at one point veers into telling the reader how they can obtain thermite... in some video game, the title of which is never given.

Anyway, the temperature generated from the blast of a high explosive - like the kinds used in bombs and shells - can range from 1300-8500 degrees fahrenheit. Thermite burns, max, a little over 4000 degrees. Thermite is not some superweapon that can burn through anything. You'd have to put a LOT of thermite right on target to turn a well-protected site into molten slag, and thermite doesn't work like napalm you can't spread it over a big area and that big area gets burned to a crisp
If anyone is interested, the game mentioned in the article is Cod Mobile. Great game, never spent a cent yet it feels like I'm reliving the BO2 glory days every game.

I'm not saying it's a military facility, I'm saying that if they have a sample on hand of something nasty, regardless of why it's there, it only takes one jackass to do something stupid. Better safe than sorry.

How smart do you think bio engineers need to be? It's really not too complicated and more so just tedious.

Oh you’re one of those…yeah okay sure buddy that’s why Kyiv has fallen and no one is resisting and the war is over already!
