@igorsushko
Lt Gen Kellogg, Special Envoy for Ukraine & Russia:
- Zelensky wants to end the war, Putin doesn't.
- Military support for Ukraine is important but insufficient because Russia doesn't care about casualties.
- Deprive Russia of money to wage war by getting oil down to $45/barrel.

Been saying that for three years now, while Biden implemented policies that only helped Russia and his friends while Ukraine went begging for crumbs from the State Department.

Well, the ugly truth is that the U.S. stole hypersonic technology from the Russians in the 1990s first and then just improved it.

The US has had ramjet and scramjet technology going back to the 1950's when the SR-71 was being developed. I have no doubt we've stolen plans from Russia but they likely stole the original concept from someone else. The Soviets/Russians being culturally averse to both innovation and innovators. The Commies in particular saw innovators as inherently critical of the Soviet State.

The French CAESAR is one of the 155 mm howitzer systems used by Ukraine. Because it, the similar German self-propelled system, and the US' towed M777 use NATO-compatible ammo, many shell types can be used in any of the systems.

Refineries are a much more lucrative target than oil storage depots.

Refineries have many more "Desired Mean Point of Impacts" (DMPIs) than depots.

When attacking a depot, it is best to wait until the fires are out, for follow on attacks, since the fires often spread from one storage tank to other storage tanks.

When attacking a refinery, the fires may not spread. However, the damage will often result in a shutdown.

Pictures, like the one below can show target intel analysts where follow-on attacks can hit. No need to wait until the fires go out.


My guess is that partisans are posting the pictures.

Hopefully, Israel is also supplying some of their recently retired Patriot systems & missiles.

The Ukrainian marines have an ISR drone overhead (taking the video).

The ruzzians don't have an ISR drone overhead or they don't have direct communications with any ruzzian ISR drones.

Boo,hoo, hoo.  If the orcs hadn’t been there in the first place, they’d most likely still be alive.

They are there to kill people and/or take someone else's property/freedom. That's the bottom line. The more that are killed/removed from action the fewer innocents will die. While I'm sympathetic that many of them didn't volunteer to be there it doesn't change their purpose. Fighting for an evil cause is what it is and doesn't excuse them from the consequences.

Oryol Oblast, Russia on Google Maps


...Concrete structures storing thermobaric warheads for drones were hit, causing strong secondary detonations.

Perhaps a Stormshadow attack!

Kudos to Ukraine's Target Intel for locating the storage facility.

They were invaders who targeted civilian hospitals, schools, playgrounds, apartments, and even pedestrians. They earned what they received.
