Most of #Odesa is without water, heating and electricity after a massive Russian attack on the city.

People line up at public water taps. Bottled water in stores is running out due to increased demand.

On the campaign trail, Trump promised hundreds of times that he would end the Russia/Ukraine war in 24 hours or less, even before being sworn in, b/c of his great personal relationship with Putin.
Putin played his puppet Donnie for the fool he is, & Trump is realizing it now.

Hello again - it's Tuesday's daily thread for Day 1378 of the full Russian invasion.

It's the day Russia will again pretend it wants peace as a woefully underqualified and historically ignorant US "envoy" meets Putin again.

The Wall Street Journal has exposed the corruption of Steve Witkoff and the Trump family. They are currently selling out America's interests and our NATO allies for billions in business deals with the Russians.

💔 All that remains of the Pokrovsk mine administration.

Before Russia's arrival, thousands of people worked here.

Considering that Russia has no need for the mines, its own industry is in crisis, and there's nowhere to put the coal, it's clear no one will restore it. They'll flood it and abandon.
