Soldiers of Ukraine’s ‘Thor’ special operations group are using satellite data provided by the CIA to choose targets when conducting drone strikes against Russian forces, the unit’s commander told The Times.
The 27-man group, which is formally a police special operations unit, functions independently from the Ukrainian army and works in close collaboration with the country’s military intelligence, the GUR, which provides them with ammunition and intel. According to The Times, the unit has complete license to select its missions, where it barracks and when it fights.
The unit’s commander, whose name is said to also be Thor, claims he uses a special application on a tablet that is synced to a CIA satellite to select potential targets for their attacks.
“We select targets in the program, and targets can be placed there both by the CIA satellite and by our own satellite, which our volunteers pay for. Information is collected from all kinds of sources there. We choose, then we arrive and conduct our own reconnaissance,” Thor told the outlet.
Another member of the group told the Times that Thor also intentionally uses drones to maim – rather than kill – Russian servicemen. “These ones are to wound the Russians,” Aleksander, 30, told The Times as he armed a 3D-printed drone with mining explosives. “Take an arm or a leg, he will be a burden on the state forever,” he said.
According to the Times, all members of Thor are veterans of Ukraine’s 2014 military operation against anti-Kiev rebels in the Donbass republics of Donetsk and Lugansk. Both territories, along with the Kherson and Zaporozhye Regions, were incorporated into Russia last year following public referendums.
Moscow has long accused the US and its allies of being directly involved in the Ukraine conflict and essentially waging a “proxy war” against Russia by continuing to provide Kiev’s forces with increasingly advanced weaponry, ammunition and intelligence.

OK – that is the chilling psychotic reality of the conflict that the BBC is promoting.
The most insidious form of psychotic aberration, being the most effective en masse, is precisely that type of selective sentimentality that the BBC specialises in, looking for trigger points to promote the escalation of actual WAR that has serious real-life consequences in terms of physical injury and death.
The BBC misses THIS story, but today’s ‘Ukraine Headline’ is about an ‘ickle girl who did a drawing and now she’s been separated from her Daddy –
‘Ukraine war: How a Russian child’s drawing sparked a police investigation’

You KNOW the soppy Creative Writing style this piece of pseudo- journalism is going to be couched in –
‘Alexei is currently under house arrest in Yefremov. His daughter Masha has – for now – been sent to a children’s home. Alexei has not even been allowed to speak to her on the phone.
“No-one has seen Masha since 1 March,” Olga Podolskaya tells me, “despite our attempts to get access to the children’s home and to find out how she is.’
Read that ‘-for now-‘ and you can HEAR the catch in the voice impressing itself with what it imagines is its audience-swaying tragic irony over the visual cue . . .
When ALL this conflict is ended- the Globalist War against that collective and individual moral instinct otherwise known as Common Sense- when that is over, the first people the British must hold to account is no single Politician or General – no Tony Blair, who every sane person knew was lying on orders – but rather the license-funded BBC.
It has, after all, the reach, the power, the influence, the multi-million pound revenue from a Compulsory Tax and above all the sheer insurmountable power of Televisual Broadcasting – to the extent that if the BBC says something is so, it quite simply becomes so in the minds of millions.
No single Politician, even if theoretically the Country’s Chief Executive- has anywhere near that power.
If – using the Iraq Weopons-of-Mass-Destruction Lie as an example – the BBC had done the simplest piece of basic investigation and exposed the lie instead of deliberately promoting that and the entire carnage which ensued * which must have erased the lives of thousands of ‘ickle girls who did drawings and loved their daddies * hundreds of thousands of lives would not have been lost.
The BBC is far more powerful and influential than any Tony Blair or Boris Johnson – like politicians all over the West, those are soulless individuals who accrue millions in exchange for drawing all the misdirected anger and blame of the Public, whilst the BBC and all its psychopath-enablers who sit in front of the cameras actually validating the lie in the minds of millions of viewers, sail on regardless, still loved and respected by those same millions who hate on the puppet career politicians who are turned into Spitting Image Puppets for the very purpose of misdirected opprobrium.
Jeremy ‘chummy’ Vine, ‘Nice’ Naga Munchetty, the whole Tribe- the bland, the ‘neutral’, the pseudo-authoratative who sit in the Studio telling us to hate Trump or Blair or Johnson or Netanyahu from a position of safety, security, a gold-plated pension and the unearned affection of millions – these bland people will not promote just one or two acts of carnage like a Blair or John Major – they will keep on promoting them year after year, decade after decade, without ever having to take even the metaphorical responsibility for a single life – when in fact collectively and individually they are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands.
If ever I get the chance to phone in on Radio 5’s Nicky Campbell or whatever, I might point that out 🙂
(And at least Daddy Alexei didn’t get a limb selectively blown off by the Russian Authorities, ay? )
