The blaze at the Lukoil site in Volgograd comes amid reports of Kyiv stepping up its targeting of energy facilities in Russia. Volgograd regional governor Andrey Bocharov said on Telegram that Russian air defenses and electronic warfare (EW) systems had "repelled a drone attack" in the region overnight on Friday. As a result, "one drone fell and set off a fire at the Volgograd oil refinery."

A coup may come in Ukraine. Neither Nuland nor the CIA can protect Zelenskyy if the right-wing takes over. They only tolerated Zelenskyy because of Zaluzhny

Kinda sounds like mission accomplished for the drone.

Killing the plane full of Azov POWs was probably no accident.

Bring your parade parachutes, Azov guys! Pancakes at the bottom!

"Real news", that's a laugh.

Zeepers news sources are the Ukrainian government, a draft dodging pilot, or someone sitting at a keyboard in their mother's basement in Alabama.

It’s not a meme.

It’s a group picture.

Meanwhile, in the war itself, Ukraine continues to get its ass kicked:

SIMPLICIUS Ѱ
@simpatico771

⚡️🇺🇦A wounded Ukrainian Armed Forces officer spoke about the difficult situation at the front: the Armed Forces of Ukraine have a severe shortage of people, and those forcibly mobilized are fleeing their units

▪️“Not enough people. There are more Russians, and they have more of everything. The situation is difficult,” he said.

▪️At the same time, the military does not condemn those who go to the SZCh, since not everyone can withstand the war.

▪️He also said that he receives money during treatment, but did not receive money for the wound itself (“half his body in fragments”), because it is not considered serious.
