Ukraine said Russia had destroyed homes in the south and knocked out power in the north in a new round of missile attacks on Monday as the West tried to limit Moscow's ability to finance its invasion by imposing a price cap on Russian seaborne oil.

...

Russian forces have increasingly targeted Ukrainian energy facilities in recent weeks as they faced setbacks on the battlefield, causing major power outages as winter sets in.

...

A Russian oil blend was selling for around $79 a barrel in Asian markets on Monday - almost a third higher than the price cap, according to Refinitiv data and estimates from industry sources.

Russia is not selling to any country using a price cap.

Russia Launches New Missile Attacks

That does tend to happen after you blow up some of Russia's strategic bombers.

The most important event in the world of oil was weeks ago when Saudi Arabia and Russia both said they were paying less and less attention to prices on trading exchanges in “enemy” countries.

That means London and NYMEX crude contracts. Those prices can be manipulated.

So prices quoted in articles can largely be ignored. That’s not the price of oil.

The ‘big attack’ was a failure.

“Out of them 60 have been shot down, a remarkable success rate of 86%.
It is also plausible that this is the case since the reported damage from all over Ukraine is overall minimal (only Odesa sustained some larger outages in electricity and water).”

There was no reference to "The ‘big attack’" in the Newsmax article, and Elon Musk has provided proof that Twitter always Lies to support the Prog Left Socialist Homo Propaganda.

Ukraine shot down 85% of Putin’s missiles today. Here’s a good shoot-down video:.

May the Russians reduce Ukraine to the Beggar State she actually is. Flatten the place until it resembles 1100 AD.

Wait, Russia was long out of missiles, etc. according to Bellingcat, ORYX, ISW, and the Western/US/UK/EU/NATO propaganda ridden media?!?!

Oh, and the US/UK/NATO need to not only send air-defenses to Poland, now they need to send them to Moldova to prevent Ukrainian S-300s from dropping on them..........

No way! The Russians have run out of missiles 100 times already. Also don’t forget the fact that Russians are freezing to death because I don’t know how to fight in winter. All of the palm trees and sunshine in Mother Russia has made them weak I tell you!

And all their officers have been killed, and Putin is dying, and Ukraine has no money.

You are so right. The Zeepers try to conveniently forget that the call between President Trump and Zelensky was the basis for the coup and Colonel Vindman, the creepy “whistle blower “was a naturalized Ukrainian national who has been offered the position of Defense Minister of Ukraine two times by the Ukraine.
