Russia launched an extensive air attack on the Ukrainian city of Odesa for a second night in row, but authorities vowed on Wednesday not be intimidated by the “hellish” onslaught from working to keep grain exports moving from its ports.

    Pure terrorism. The ultimate aim of this, I’m guessing, is to weaken Ukraine so they have less money to buy stuff. However, I’m assuming the downstream effects will be to hurt the global food supply at a time when things were already looking bad enough as it is. This will increase hunger & famine, which will likely lead to more unrest & instability throughout the world. This will also stretch the resources of countries allied to Ukraine, since they’re the ones more likely to be providing humanitarian assistance. Just a completely evil war carried out in the most brutal & disgusting ways possible, Russia is just such a shit country and deserves its own set of war crimes trials on par with Nuremberg. Does nobody there ever wonder to themselves, “Are we the bad guys?”

      The idea is also threaten the world with starvation so govts pressure Ukraine to surrender/ freeze conflict.
