Ukraine has attacked the Russian import terminal on Crimea again and has successfully isolated the peninsula from being resupplied fuel by rail or ship. Russia's fuel crisis in the occupied territories is especially reaching critical levels as fuel prices skyrocket everywhere else in the country.

This war is what russians want and as with any aggressor they only stop when their suffering is too great. Take the gloves off.

Jay in Kyiv @jayinkyiv.bsky.social · 3d

Those blaming Putin (not Russia) for the war just don't understand Russians.

Putin is only giving them the foreign atrocities they demand, the ones that make their own misery seem tolerable by comparison.

Social media algorithms are more dangerous than nuclear weapons - the answer is for all platforms to be regulated as publishers and their algorithms must be transparent and certified as benign - China and russia don't allow the social media platforms that they use as weapons against the West.

Zelensky confirmed Ukraine's Ruta drone-missile hit a Russian offshore platform over 250 km away for the first time. The biggest success came from “Liutyi” and other “Fire Point” drones, used in mass, up to 300 at once.

Ukrainian Neptune and Flamingo missiles have also been used, he confirmed.
