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.
Waiting for Putin to claim Ukraine is crossing the line doing this. While he is perfectly OK with bombing Ukrainian Nuclear power plants and dams. Things that are actually clearly war crimes.
It’s so cool that Ukraine has found a way to strike back, and they do it within international law!!
Fuck you Russia and fuck you Putin.
Your days are numbered!
So many of Moscow’s ‘Red Lines’ have been crossed it’s starting to look like a red carpet.
Russia’s days are not numbered.
Ruzzia will be a third world shithole country forever. Everyone outside of Moscow and St Petersburg squats over latrine pits, your food is the worst in the world, your men are all addicted to anti-freeze vodka and smoking, which explains why the greatest cause of death in ruzzia is self immolation. Even your women hate you because they are all trying to marry westerners. When you finish losing this war, you will never get your overseas assets back, or your petroleum customers, and you will be paying reparations forever. Pootangs legacy is that you will remain peasants forever. Well deserved, I say :)
You can stop using “your”, I’m not Russian lol.
Yes you are. You are regurgitating Pootangs talking points which makes you a ruzzian orc. or even worse, a traitorous collaborator. I’m choosing to be generous naming you an orc, Yuri.
They said Putin, not Russia.
He’s just a russian .ml troll, nothing can change his mind
Why do you think they aren’t? It’s not like revolution is unheard of there. Do you have any real reason, or just faith. I don’t really think believing in things makes it true, or the world would be a much different place.
Because the revolution is not likely to happen anytime soon. Of course, I can be wrong.
Why do you think that? Again, belief is useless. Do you have actual reasoning?
Why do you believe it’s happening? Are you willing to bet the revolution will happen before the end of the year?
I don’t think I stated an opinion. You did. Do you actually have a reason for what you said?
For future reference, I think it’s quite possible Russia sees a revolution or regime change. They’re losing a large portion of their young male population, their economy is in turmoil, and their oil refineries, which is by far their most important export, are being destroyed. They saved up money for a while before the war to pay families who lose soldiers and temporarily keep their economy afloat and keep people from getting too riled up, but that money is largely gone now. Payments to families are being delayed or not happening at all, and the economy is in a risky position.
Will it happen? I don’t think anyone can make this prediction. May it happen? Certainly. I don’t think any reasonable person looks at the situation and thinks it’s on stable ground. Only the people with their heads in the sand can sit back and say Russia is in a great position internally or externally right now. Sure, Russian media says it’s great, but they benefit from selling that image to the people. Don’t wholy trust anyone who benefits from you believing what they’re saying.
Sure, I’m not saying it can’t happen, I’m saying it’s not likely to happen in the near term. If you are confident it will happen by a given date in the near future, let’s bet.
There have been indeed damages to Russian energy facilities but enough remain functional to keep the economy going. The irony is European countries have contributed nearly as much to the Russian war efforts as they have towards the Ukrainian war efforts over the past three years.
Why do you think that? You haven’t given a reason.
You asking to make a bet is just a stupid way to act like you’re the one with power. We both know this is an internet forum where we’re never going to pay the other no matter who wins. Stop behaving like a child. I know how this works.
I case you forgot by the time you read this, there’s a question at the top of this comment.
It’s the only thing ruzzian peons do well :)
Every day is numbered, it’s called a calendar.
They had 4 revolutions in the 1900s.
They’re slightly overdue for another humiliating collapse.
Ok then everybody’s days are numbered…
You are accidentally correct! The best kind of corr… Wait a minute!
In that statement “Your” can refer to either or both.
Only if you are a ruzzian orc with rudimentary understanding of the English language. At least you tried, hey Yuri? :)
Not with that attitude
