🇩🇰🇺🇦 Denmark will allocate about 400 million euros for the purchase of weapons from Ukrainian manufacturers for further transfer to the Defense Forces.

I am not surprised. Russians will talk like that for years to come. It will have to be somebody else who caused it. Because if it's not it might mean they themselves will have to accept some responsibility for the state of their country - and that they will never do.

Residents of Russia's Belgorod region say they will be totally out of fuel in 1-2 days.

🇵🇱 Euractiv: Poland is preparing to amend its law on military deployments abroad to allow its forces to shoot down Russian objects, such as drones, over Ukraine without prior NATO or EU approval.

Not very smart to attack a country that controls, together with Sweden, the entry and exit to the Baltic Sea - thru which Russia ships a large amount of the oil it exports.

So, an explosion at a warehouse in the U.K. I wonder who can be behind it?

The demilitarization of temporary occupied Crimea continue.

- Russia has no excess storage for surplus oil meant for the destroyed refineries. - Can't send surplus oil through some pipelines because the pumping stations are destroyed. - Can't export surplus oil because the ports are attacked. Russia will close oil wells, some permanently.

🇩🇰❗️The airport in the Danish city of Aalborg is closed due to "drones in the sky," and three arriving planes have been diverted to other airports.

"Oh God, a whole war." - Footage has appeared online showing a Ukrainian USV strike on the oil terminal of the Tuapse oil refinery. It is claimed that the drone hit the oil-loading pier, where fuel oil, vacuum gas oil, and diesel are shipped. t.me/c/1377735387...

The Little Sea Drone That Could: A Ukrainian sea drone evades fire, circling around the harbor in Tuapse in SW fascist Russia, and strikes the oil-loading pier.

In Tatarstan public transport companies are having difficulties refueling with both gasoline and diesel. The example given is company which has 70% of its fleet on gasoline. Independent gas stations have been operating at a loss for 45 days. www.business-gazeta.ru/article/683616

Another great one from Jay. His coverage of the Russian economy's death spiral is awesome.

The port of Tuapse today, the moment a Ukrainian naval drone struck the oil loading pier.

From battlefield to oilfields. 🛢️ Ukraine’s drones are now tools of economic warfare — crippling Russian refineries, cutting over 1M barrels/day, and pushing fuel exports to 2020 lows. A campaign that shows how military tactics can shift global markets.

Ukraine reportedly hit Russia’s Neftekhim Salavat oil refinery and petrochemical plant early this morning in Bashkortostan, more than 1,400 km from the Ukrainian border. Ukraine’s bombing campaign targeting Putin’s war machine is causing a mounting fuel crisis across Russia

If you have to say you aren't, you are.

This will gall ALOT of average Russians, who are already grappling with high inflation, and increasing unemployment. Background here: www.rferl.org/a/russia-eco...

Not related to this article or post, but I wonder how many western writers, think tankers, analysts and journalists Russia has on its payroll. I am sure somebody will write software after the war and compare texts with Kremlin narratives over time. I am sure there will be interesting patterns.

A guest on mainstream Russian TV goes off script, complains that Russia's invasion has almost gone as long as WW2, calls out the Russian Defense Ministry for lying and says that it was a big mistake to underestimate Ukraine's Armed Forces.

Very nice image.

Ukrainian drone swarms are attacking military and strategic targets on the territory of the russian terrorist state, particularly in the Moscow region. (map of tracks of UA strike UAVs via DroneBomber)

A pleasure to follow this.

So Russia is going into a diesel-crisis just when Ukraine is increasing the attacks on Russian railroads, that increase the need for transportation with trucks running on diesel. Considering the enormous distances in Russia the need for trucks will be substantial too.

Sad, but I believe Michael has been saying that for almost twelve years now. And each time I have agreed with him. We keep saying it over and over again. Maybe some day the powers that be will listen.

Fuel keeps getting harder to find in Russia — another gas station went up in flames, this time in occupied Kadiivka, Luhansk region.

Guidance systems: thermal imager, optical camera, guidance by a source of radio frequency radiation. For stable communication, the drone is equipped with satellite communication with FHSS.

🇺🇦😎 The largest Toloka is just one of a family of underwater drones: TLK-200, TLK-400, TLK-1000, - Defense Express The drone is equipped with systems for planning and conducting autonomous missions. Drone has "four integrated neural networks - optical, thermal, acoustic and inertial".

My solution to the unwillingness of the EU and NATO to use force against Russia is to support Ukraine. By investing in the Ukrainian Armed Forces instead of their own EU-countries will get way more defense for their money.

When Russia sent 20+ drones into Polish airspace NATO scrambled jets and spent millions of dollars worth of missiles to shoot down four drones and also hit a civilian building while at it. This is after almost four years of drone warfare next door.

Another thing, as far as I know the refineries use some sophisticated high tech parts and rare earth catalysts, that have been produced only by a few companies in Europe, and are under sanctions. So it's really hard for the russians to obtain those parts and bring refineries back online

Regarding burning Russian refineries. Keep in mind that even if a refinery isn't destroyed it's useless if oil can't get there or refined products can't get out from there. By hitting selected pumping stations or railroad junctions Ukraine can also take a refinery offline.

Should Ukraine get security "guarantees" from a group of countries that can't even muster the guts to shoot down Russian planes and drones over its own territory?

It emerged today Russia suffered another major rail accident in the far east of the country. 2 died and 12 were injured in Amur region yesterday when a track-laying crane came off the tracks during repairs.

‼️Russia is preparing for large-scale budget deficit in 2026 and is already actively looking for sources of replenishment of the treasury, - Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine 👀 The main options are the withdrawal of funds from National Welfare Fund and an increase in taxes for the population.

The end of war in Ukraine will trigger economic collapse in Russia, as military spending has become main driver of its economy, said Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence This means that strengthening Ukraine will accelerate Russia’s financial exhaustion euromaidanpress.com/2025/09/20/i...

Interesting that after three and a half years of an ever more high-tech drone war in Ukraine and Russia the EU and NATO has done zero to defend itself against drones. Ukraine is soon to be attacked by 1,000 drones per night. How would any EU country do if 100 drones attacked? We are sitting ducks.

🔥 Long-range drones of SBU and SSO hit a number of oil pumping stations of Kuibyshev-Tikhoretsk oil pipeline (export through Novorossiysk). ‼️ “BAVOVNA” at the stations “Zenzevatka” (Volgograd region), “Sovkhoznaya-2” (Samara region), as well as at the linear production dispatch station “Samara”.

Russia is hitting warehouses with food now? Such barbarians they are.

Russia. Warfare.

Not only the Saratov refinery, which produces annually over 7 million tons in oil products, was hit by Ukrainian drones last night, but also the Novokuybyshevsk refinery in the Samara region, Russia, the latter producing 7.9 million tons in oil products, annually.

First NATO refused to defend Ukraine’s skies. Now we refuse to defend our own.

Attacks by invader Russia on NATO in the past nine days: Poland: strike UAVs Romania: strike UAV Estonia: fighter jets Baltic Sea drilling platform: fighter jets Retaliation by NATO: zilch

Just shoot them down

Readiness to respond? Show me the wreckages of the shot down Russian planes.

The Russians were in EU's airspace for 12 minutes and didn't get shot down? What happened? Did the air defense malfunction? Just kidding. I know what it was. Nobody dared giving the order to shoot them down. Somebody wanted to make sure the Russians are reminded we are cowards.

Great article. Every sentence is worth quoting. Read it.

A reminder that it took Turkey 17 seconds to shoot down a Russian Su-24 in 2015.
