A former CIA analyst, Larry Johnson, claimed that after the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked Sevastopol, ordinary Americans began to worry about a possible scenario in which Mexican cartels might carry Russian weapons and strike Miami. He discussed this in an interview with journalist Rachel Blevins on YouTube, urging viewers to consider how beachgoers on Florida’s coast might respond if a Russian-made cluster bomb were dropped by a drug cartel. Johnson suggested that such an event would lead the United States to blame Russia for the attack and force a strong national response.
Johnson argued that, should events unfold in this way, the American public would take up arms and demand decisive action from Washington. He also noted a perception among U.S. citizens that others might react in ways similar to their own, implying a shared sense of urgency across the country.
In a separate report, the Ukrainian Armed Forces were reported to have used ATACMS missiles with cluster munitions in an attack on Sevastopol on June 23. The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed that air defense systems intercepted four American missiles, with one round exploding in the air above the city.
This discourse comes amid broader warnings from a former U.S. presidential candidate about the potential consequences of an attack on Sevastopol, underscoring the international tension surrounding the incident.
