The Chinese had a series of rocket failures that they traced back to excessive corrosion. Turns out that during the normal fueling and defueling cycles they would sometimes just substitute water for liquid fuel


Water replaced liquid hydrogen but these are their oldest and less than 5% of their rockets. Russia is something on the order of 40% hydrogen fueled instead of solid fuel

Russian proxy claims missile strike on oil depot in occupied Luhansk

by Rachel Amran and The Kyiv Independent news desk May 8, 2024 2:05 AM

An oil depot in occupied Luhansk was struck by ATACMS missiles, causing a mass fire at the facility, the Moscow-installed head of the occupied region, Leonid Pasechnik, claimed on May 8. At least five employees were reportedly injured and hospitalized.

Pasechnik announced on Telegram at around 11:35 p.m. local time that the depot had been attacked and emergency response teams were working to contain the fire.

The Russian proxy later reported that five employees of the oil depot were injured and hospitalized, power lines were damaged, houses in the immediate area were partially de-energized, and a high-pressure gas pipeline was on fire.

"An overnight strike on an oil depot in Luhansk was allegedly carried out by Western-style ATACMS missiles," Pasechnik claimed.
