A Russian RM-48U ballistic missile strike in Kyiv left a huge crater just meters from residential buildings. Mayor Vitali Klitschko says a service station building was hit in the Dniprovskyi district and a private house was destroyed, with people possibly trapped under rubble. #Ukraine

🤡 Trump administration finds a way to remove some Russian shadow fleet tankers from sanctions without formally lifting them — Bloomberg

US Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Washington is allowing sanctioned tankers to be sold to new owners, who would then be able to use them for legitimate oil shipments.

According to Wright, around 1,600 vessels are currently under sanctions. The initiative could bring dozens or even hundreds of tankers back into the legitimate shipping market, helping reduce transportation costs.

Wright rejected the suggestion that the US is effectively lifting sanctions. He explained that under their new owners, the vessels would no longer transport sanctioned oil.

“We’ll move some ships from what I call the ‘bad guys’ fleet to the ‘good guys’ fleet,” the secretary said.

How convenient: yesterday a tanker was “bad,” today it has a new owner — and suddenly it's “good.”

russia has run into serious problems with its offensive in Donbas, where its forces have become bogged down.

One of the main reasons was that russian logistics had been crippled by Ukrainian drone strikes. This campaign depended heavily on Starlink terminals operating on high-speed Ukrainian drones.

russian military command identified this as a critical problem and approached the American side, asking it to restrict the speeds at which Starlink terminals could operate.

The argument was simple: there would be little public backlash because the US could still claim that Starlink was operational and that the service was still being provided.

The Trump administration agreed to the restrictions, effectively solving a critical battlefield problem for Russia.

As a result, russian logistics in Donbas are now safer, and Ukraine has lost an important advantage on the battlefield.

I truly hope Americans see this and draw their own conclusions.

BREAKING:

5 Russian suicide drones have struck northern Moldova over the past day.

1 Moldovan citizen was wounded in one of the strikes. Russia keeps wounding and killing Europeans even outside of Ukraine

[Ukraine Battle Map @ukraine_map]

There couldn’t be a bigger lie. The US wasted well over 1,200 of their 3,900 Tomahawks on Iran. None on Ukraine

Nearly all their 2,000 ATACMS on Iran, only 300 on Ukraine. Over +1,500 of their 2,300 PAC-3 missiles on Iran, only around 400 on Ukraine. Over 1,000 of their JASSM missiles on Iran. No Tomahawks or JASSM used on Ukraine.

The US lost ~40 aircraft, including Reaper Drones, F-15Es, Tanker Aircraft, Helicopters, and an AWACS aircraft on Iran. None on Ukraine. Over 500 of their ~800 THAAD missiles on Iran. None on Ukraine. SM-6 missiles on Iran. None on Ukraine. Nearly all of America’s ~100 PRSM missiles on Iran. None on Ukraine.

While the Gulf Countries wasted over +2,400 of their Patriot missiles on Iran. Combined 8x more Patriot interceptors were used by the US and Gulf countries on Iran than on Ukraine.

Trump lies every step of the way. He’s a pathological liar.

[InformNapalm @InformNapalm]

Russia calls this “domestic production.”
Yet in the Geran-4 flight controller examined by Ukrainian specialists, no Russian-made electronics were found at all. Of 105 identified components, 80 came from 🇺🇸 U.S. companies — with @TXInstruments, including components from National Semiconductor acquired by TI in 2011, accounting for 58.1%.

Another monstrous crime by the Putin regime. The tanker "Wine Trader" was attacked by two drones

The Russian army launched a drone attack on a mall full of people in the Odesa region in broad daylight.

What Russia is doing now is targeted, daily terror against civilians. Only civilians die in such attacks.

Two Su-34 wrecks are clearly visible (red arrows), while the remains of two other, destroyed in the middle, have already been partially cleared by a crane (yellow). Apparently two sets of mangled wings (green) form the destroyed Su-34s have been moved next to protective barriers.

US has not spent $350B on Ukraine. It has spent $132B, $33B of that is money. The rest is $21B in loans, repaid from frozen Russian assets, $4B in humanitarian aid, and the vast majority, $74B is military equipment.

Half that equipment is new, made in the US. The other half is old stockpile equipment, which soon would have had to be demilitarized at great cost. The replacement equipment is made in the US, so the money stays in the US.

Meanwhile, the EU and European countries have spent a combined $271B, more than twice as much as the US.

Two masked men set fire to 11 of 17 Starlink ground station antennas near Sofia, Bulgaria, according to Bulgarian officials.

The incident closely resembles the September 23 arson attack on a Starlink ground station in Poland, where two Turkish nationals were arrested.

Polish authorities suspect Russian intelligence was behind the sabotage, which targeted infrastructure also used to provide communications for Ukraine, while Bulgaria’s prime minister has urged security officials not to disclose details of their investigation.

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

Let’s be clear about what’s happening here: Ukraine is being threatened with starlink removal and intel being cut off for literally fighting back and defending itself. For nearly
5 years the west has been trying to get Ukraine to hold back. Utterly pathetic.
