🇷🇺 In Russland eskaliert die Lage zwischen Putinismus und Pragmatismus.
Wer in Russland gerade aufs Fahrrad steigt, um zur Arbeit zu fahren, fällt für manche Putin in den Rücken – in Sankt Petersburg eskalierte das diese Woche offen auf der Straße.

Roughly 40% of russia’s oil refining capacity has been knocked offline, largely by Ukrainian drone strikes, and restoring it will take at least several months.
Facing an acute fuel shortage, russian oil majors Rosneft and Gazprom Neft have turned to Indian refineries for emergency gasoline supplies, with at least one shipment already on its way and requests for more.

A Russian woman was vacationing in Georgia and witnessed a ceremony honoring fallen Georgian Heroes who died defending Ukraine.
