Ukrainian forces obliterated a critical part of Russia’s Druzhba oil pipeline overnight — as Kyiv fought back against Moscow’s ramped-up attacks despite ongoing peace deal talks.
Ukraine bombed the Unecha oil pumping station in the Bryansk region late Thursday, according to the commander of Ukraine’s unmanned systems forces, Robert Brovdy.
Footage posted on Telegram showed a huge inferno raging at a facility with multiple fuel tanks in the wake of the strikes.
Bryansk regional Gov. Alexander Bogomaz said Ukraine had fired HIMARS rockets and drones at the region in a combined attack, setting the energy facility ablaze

That pipeline supplies Hungary and Slovakia. Last ditch, desperate effort.
I will laugh heartily when :
A) Hungary shuts off their electricity supply which Ukraine is dependent on.
B) Hungary and Slovakia leave the EU, sparking their break up.
Fools.
“Hungary threatens Kyiv with electricity cut after Ukrainian attacks shut down Russia oil imports”…. The Druzhba pipeline delivers oil from Russia to Central Europe through Ukraine and Belarus. Hungary and Slovakia are the only EU member states still receiving large amounts of Russian pipeline oil after securing carve-outs in the bloc’s sanctions targeting exports of Russian oil.”
That said, Hungary generates 45 percent of its electricity from fossil fuels, when the brain dead Ukies shut down the pipeline, they also shutdown electricity to the EU.
Why are they committing suicide?
Sigh. I had such high hopes.
Your Putin is weak.
—————
But winning.
Trump said he did not know why Zelensky did not go on offense.
I’ve been asking the same question for years.
Why doesn’t Zelensky get off his lazy azz and push Ruzzia out of
it’s territory?
Yep....
Presidents telling the russians they need to get their act together.....
In this case, ‘Putin, you got to quit messing around and take out the grifter zelensky, already...’
Besides the invasion was over last March.
Marshall Ivan Konev would not approve.
Nixon telling it to Krushchev is something. He was at the defense of Stalingrad, surviving off US spamm shipments. Thinking he knows economics and trying to lecture Nixon was pretty nervy. Nixon put him in his place.
Trump is NOT in charge of the Ukraine war strategy.
Nor would he ever want to be.
That said, Trump has shown favor to Hungary’s leader and this action cannot be well received by the man who ultimately holds much of the Ukraine’s destiny in the palm of his hand.
Zelensky is rope-a-doping Russia. He knows defenders have a 3.7:1 loss ratio against attackers in UKR. Russia is expended and may well have to defend against other republics in the future.

Actual numbers mean nothing to the Zelyanistas, unless they’re coming from the Ukraine Ministry of Truth.
Rope-A-Doping does not take Ukie Territory Back.
