Iron dome is not supposed to intercept missiles of this kind. Arrow 3/David's Sling are the relevant AA for those.

Reply to comment by waisonline99 in Ukraine war: Zelensky keen to meet Xi following China's peace plan by alex-98
> The very first point is the sovereignty of all countries must be respected. And since no-one has invaded Russia, that means Russia needs to get out of Ukraine.
No, it doesn't. That's your interpretation and is exactly why in international relations statements are kept vague and ambiguous. Everybody agrees that sovereignty must be respected, but precisely the question of sovereignty is what Ukraine and Russia are fighting over. Ukraine claims they are a sovereign nation independent from Russia, Russia claims that (part of) Ukraine falls within the sovereignty of Russia. Hence, it is not at all clear that Russia needs to get out of Ukraine as part of this statement. Russia has performed mock-referenda in the occupied parts of Ukraine precisely to give legitimacy to their claim of sovereignty.
If the peace plan entailed that Russia would retreat, it would say so specifically, using language referring to mutually established borders at a certain date. Otherwise, the statement has no value. The Chinese peace plan essentially says: "Stop fighting now" which would freeze the borders at the current line of conflict, which would be hugely beneficial for the Putin regime. They get to keep Crimea, Mariupol and most of the southern coastline of Ukraine. He can sell that back home as a win. Especially as we see that it's gearing up to be Ukraine's turn to go on the offensive this spring. So any freezing of the lines of conflict, currently massively favours Russia.
> You use a lot of words, but youre just another anti-chinese hate monger.
Not sure what you want. I have given facts, not opinion - on the Chinese actions. They did send their top diplomat to Putin during the 1 year anniversary, there is credible intelligence that they are gearing up to deliver lethal aid, they do have a meeting between Xi and Putin planned shortly to discuss/announce further cooperation, they absolutely have softened the blow of economic sanctions by buying more fossil fuels from Russia.
Fact is, China does not need a 12 point peace plan. They could end the war tomorrow by joining the economic sanctions on Russia. Without China, Russia cannot stay afloat under the current conditions. China simply does what is in their interest, nothing more, nothing less. And right now it is in their interest that Russia ends the Ukrainian conflict on favorable terms to them, which we see reflected in the peace plan.

> "Our cruise missile with a range of 1,650 km has been added to the missile arsenal of the Islamic Republic of Iran," said Amirali Hajizadeh, the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps aerospace force according to the Reuters news agency.
> Israel has long warned against Tehran's missile program saying it poses a threat to Israel, the region and Europe, not just for its conventional capabilities, but also because they could eventually be used to launch nuclear weapons should Iran acquire them.
> The report on the new cruise missile came hours after Iran said it will likely send air defense systems to Syria, a move apparently meant to protect against Israeli airstrikes.

Why are you seppos always upset? I don’t want your foreign intelligence spooks in my country. It’s very simple. If it was strictly a civilian communication hub no one would care. Go build it in Guam or Diego Garcia or some shit

I just did the same. Yeah she has that vibe.
I too was correct.
If forbes becomes leader it will probably be the beginning of the end for snp support. It will rip the voter base in half.

It's easy. Stop loading up on Russian oil for one. Maybe China should invade India's borders with troops, and see how world responds.

Ain't it weird you have to blindly swallow propaganda or be a tankie? Lol.
You're doing the same shit we did 20 years ago in Afghanistan when Fox News said you either support the invasion or you're a collaborator. You're that. You're doing it.
Jesus I thought they made you kids read 1984 in school still.

I've been there a couple times. It's hot, usually very dry, and mostly flat with scattered trees.
