Summary
A massive Ukrainian drone strike targeted Russian oil refineries and infrastructure, including Moscow’s largest refinery, which supplies 50% of the city’s fuel.
The attack also hit the Druzhba pipeline control station, halting Russian oil exports to Hungary. With over 337 drones striking multiple regions, the operation exploited gaps in Russia’s air defenses.
Hungary, heavily reliant on Russian energy, called the pipeline attack a threat to its sovereignty.
Analysts suggest continued strikes could pressure Russia’s economy and energy dominance, potentially influencing ceasefire negotiations.
Because many people in Crimea and in the eastern regions actually want to be under Russian influence.
And there are ways for them to get that. For instance, about 200,000 Afghans resided or immigrated to America between 2000 and 2021. What was stopping those in Crimea from doing the same? And we haven’t even addressed if that “many” is actually a majority.
The opposite is happening, people who want to remain under Ukrainian influence are moving to the regions still under Ukrainian control.
What I heard was, “The people who don’t want to be under Russian influence or live under wartime conditions are moving to the regions that aren’t engaged in military occupation.”
