A million people are without power across Ukraine after Russian missiles targeted energy infrastructure. There is no electricity in the second-largest city of Kharkiv, the regional head says, and more than 53,000 households in Odesa are without power. Ukraine's energy minister, German Galushchenko, accused Russia of trying to provoke "a large-scale failure of the country's energy system". Russia said it was revenge for recent Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory.

"Even last winter, attacks on our energy system weren't so bad as last night. Dozens of grid facilities have been hit. This is on a global scale." Mr Kudrytsky added that the worst affected area was Kharkiv, where "Russia literally tried to destroy all the main energy facilities feeding the city".

Sorta makes all the Ukraine “victories” you have been touting lately seem rather insignificant by comparison, doesn’t it?
That literally makes my head explode.
Why is he even posting this. Anyway RT has a great video of an incoming that took out the powerplant next to the dam, while leaving the dam intact. Looks like the Russians are no longer going with ‘love taps’ on the power system (easy-to-repair targets) as the dam hit pretty much wiped out the entire power generation part of the dam, probably the same elsewhere.
...and in other news, the ground in Ukraine is now dry and suitable for serious operations. (made that one up, but probably true)
ZEEPER FOLLIES PINGLIST!!
(((PING!)))
Join and laugh at the humor Zeepers provide!!
All that firepower and damage with so few deaths. Less of the ordinance shot down than usual. Very interesting.
surrender or die.
Maybe globe means something different in Zelenskyland…
Live Free or Die
Luke 14:31 Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? 32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.
War is war. Costs both sides in the ebb and flow of destruction. And all wars come to their ends, not always to the ends wished by some, but always to an end. Until the next ones. War is war.
Great news for the Putin branch of the GOP. I’m so tired of the “We don’t support him, we just don’t want to get in his way” Republicans.
Perhaps if we were nicer to Hitler, WW2 could have been avoided.
picture of war
Noted.
Two months without a significant missile campaign. Russia is making good on last week’s announcement that they would hit Ukraine with the biggest sustained missile campaign of the war.
Everyday we hear of continued missile attacks and the failure of air defense across all Ukraine, except on the forward areas of the frontlines.
Ukraine is being pushed hard and once they lose or pull back any air defense assets, remaining, the frontlines will get the offensive.
This is the defining moment of the war. Ukraine cannot defend her military and the rear areas. Ukraine choose the frontlines after losses of most air defense. Without electricity they will lose the war. Without railroad they will lose the war. Now starts the great Ukrainian retreat.
“surrender or die.”
Fight to the last YouCrayne Male is Dead.
That will teach Putin a lesson.
Zepperland is getting smaller and smaller.
Only a few dead Enders are still hanging around here.
