Summary
A massive Ukrainian drone strike targeted Russian oil refineries and infrastructure, including Moscow’s largest refinery, which supplies 50% of the city’s fuel.
The attack also hit the Druzhba pipeline control station, halting Russian oil exports to Hungary. With over 337 drones striking multiple regions, the operation exploited gaps in Russia’s air defenses.
Hungary, heavily reliant on Russian energy, called the pipeline attack a threat to its sovereignty.
Analysts suggest continued strikes could pressure Russia’s economy and energy dominance, potentially influencing ceasefire negotiations.
Man, a fuel shortage in Moscow is something Putin would struggle to downplay.
“See, I told you they are attacking us!” /s
womp womp.
i wonder how they did it without Elon knowing about it
Hungary, heavily reliant on Russian energy, called the pipeline attack a threat to its sovereignty.
You had fucking 3 years to look for alternatives.
These strikes help Hungary become more sovereign.
The biggest obstacle to Hungarian sovereignty is Victor Orban.
They don’t have the cards?!?
No, they don’t. Ukraine is about to get kicked out from Kursk and lose the little leverage they had in the negotiations.
Do you think invading a sovereign country is ok? What are your thoughts on bombing childrens’ hospitals?
No, of course not, but I’m not the one making the rules.
Average Lemmy.ml commentor
Have you been following the news this past week?
Perhaps you may want to diversify on those that are feeding propaganda to you ;)
Sure, do you have a source from this past week claiming Ukraine is not losing ground in Kursk?
🚨🚨**TANKIE ALERT!!**🚨🚨
What part of the US did the Taliban conquer to exchange it for the US to leave the country?
This is not at comparable with the US invasion of Afghanistan.
…because the aggressor has the outdated equipment?
Because many people in Crimea and in the eastern regions actually want to be under Russian influence.
Waiting for Putin to claim Ukraine is crossing the line doing this. While he is perfectly OK with bombing Ukrainian Nuclear power plants and dams. Things that are actually clearly war crimes.
It’s so cool that Ukraine has found a way to strike back, and they do it within international law!!
Fuck you Russia and fuck you Putin.
Your days are numbered!So many of Moscow’s ‘Red Lines’ have been crossed it’s starting to look like a red carpet.
Russia’s days are not numbered.
Every day is numbered, it’s called a calendar.
They had 4 revolutions in the 1900s.
They’re slightly overdue for another humiliating collapse.
Ok then everybody’s days are numbered…
You are accidentally correct! The best kind of corr… Wait a minute!
Not with that attitude
Fuck Russia, fuck trump.
And Zelensky just announced they have flown a 1000km range missile this week. Kremlin is big mad.
We are close to Russia having oil rationing
Keep going Ukraine
that’s the only language russia understands
Oh no. Darn. /s 🇺🇦
Oh no! Anyway……… 🚙
Oh no… anyways.
Awesome!
I think given the current state of the Russian military, implementing Red Storm Rising is off the table.
I mean, that’s literally what this invasion was supposed to be, and failed before they even left the old ussr.
It was supposed to be Russian dominance “from Vladivostok to Lisbon” as Putin’s grand political philosopher put it and various Russian Politicians very publicly stated, and here we are 2 years after the “3 day Special Military Operation started” and Russia is still stuck in Donbas with almost 1 million casualties, their massive stocks of Soviet Unions weapons severely depleted and their enemy has developed their own advanced weapons and is increasingly destroying the Oil and Gas infrastructure they rely on to pay for the War and dominating the airspace near the front lines using drones.
Putin’s Russia is like the obese guy who loudly claims “I’m in perfect shape”, goes out “to run a marathon” and after about about 500m is already totally out of breath and barely moving.
