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.
Keep going Ukraine
i wonder how they did it without Elon knowing about it
Oh no… anyways.
Man this is terrible for the environment
Well, using the fuel is too, weakening russia on the other hand is great for it.
I mean I’m not defending Russia or anything. It just hurts me to see a thick black cloud covering the sky. Poor animals. Just shows how harmful fossil fuels are
You shouldn’t call ruzzians “poor animals”, even if they are :)
It’s producing no more polution than it would otherwise have produced when used in cars and for heating, only this way the polution is confined to were the guys who pumped it out knowing how bad it was for the Environment live.
It’s about the fairest form of polution possible.
Some of the methods this might have been used in may have had some steps involved to reduce pollutants. The overall c02 though would be the same.
that’s the only language russia understands
We are close to Russia having oil rationing
Good shot Janson!
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.
🚨🚨**TANKIE ALERT!!**🚨🚨
Good job russia, they finally achieved something… like 6 months later… and with the ukrainians leaving on their own… but we have to give them something, right?
Fuck russia
The Ukrainians are leaving on their own? Why are they leaving?
The loss of American support and intelligence sharing, exposed their soldiers to greater risks, so they performed a tactical withdrawal. Had it been ruzzia in that situation, they’d have just let their soldiers die, and sent more in to die also.
American support and intelligence has only been paused for one week and has resumed since.
They got tired of killing koreans probably
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.
How about the soviet ruzzian invasion of Afghanistan, before that? You ruzzians sure are great at losing. Maybe that’s why Drumph loves Pootang the Tiny so much :) You should stick to things you’re good at, like consuming anti-freeze vodka and wife beating, hey?
That’s not comparable either.
As for the rest, your comment is useless and classless, I’m not Russian.
…because the aggressor has the outdated equipment?
Because many people in Crimea and in the eastern regions actually want to be under Russian influence.
Anybody in Crimea knows that if you say Crimea is Ukraine, you will quite soon get beaten up seriously badly. A person cannot know whether you will rat him out or not, so It does not matter what he thinks – he will absolutely say that he supports the Russia. Practically everybody in Crimea will say that they do, no matter what they think.
That would be the Russians sent there to cause trouble as “separatists” right?
Or just people who have been living there.
And there are ways for them to get that. For instance, about 200,000 Afghans resided or immigrated to America between 2000 and 2021. What was stopping those in Crimea from doing the same? And we haven’t even addressed if that “many” is actually a majority.
A lot of Crimeans DID do the same. Why do you assume they didn’t?
The opposite is happening, people who want to remain under Ukrainian influence are moving to the regions still under Ukrainian control.
Average Lemmy.ml commentor
Have you been following the news this past week?
Sure. Ukraine is retreating from the Kursk region, with minimal losses. Holding dirt doesn’t win wars. Meanwhile they’re making huge wins in east (not a ton of dirt, but destroying assets and soldiers), and these strikes into Russia on very strategically important assets.
Thank you for confirming Ukrainian soldiers are getting kicked out from Kursk.
Ukrainians are withdrawing gracefully, probably due to Drumph ceasing all intelligence sharing. Had the ruzzians been in that situation, they’d have just let their soldiers die. Why aren’t YOU at the front, comrade?
American support and intelligence has only been paused for one week and has resumed since.
Same question back to you, comrade.
I don’t know if you buy this, but Ukraine says it’s part of the plan. That sounds like what Russia says. If you don’t believe them, why do you believe what Russia says?
I don’t believe that withdrawing from Kursk because the Russians are gaining ground day after day is part of some sort of grand plan.
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?
I don’t think he can have. He knows Ukraine has been losing ground in Kursk. But he also understands that this is not really relevant at this point. The Russia has not been advancing in any noticeable manner since early 2022. (Okay, in 2024 they did gain 0.7 % percent of Ukraine’s total territory in just one year, but I would not call gaining under one percent of a country’s territory advancing, really)
It would be useful for Ukraine to remain in the Kursk area, but what can you do when all your warehouses’ and military bases’ locations in the area are suddenly known by your enemy? It’s a huge task building new ones in different places, and one cannot do so in just a couple of days.
Russia has been gaining ground steadily.
Ukraine is about to be kicked out of Kursk.
I have no satisfaction nor happiness while wearing this, it is just the unfortunate truth.
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.
womp womp.
Fuck Russia, fuck trump.
Good… because fuck em… that’s why.
PopCopy!
Man, a fuel shortage in Moscow is something Putin would struggle to downplay.
“Extreme climate control measures. The decadent West is not taking responsibility for the climate change, so we must act radically to save the Earth.”
I think Russians are so used to their government lying that no-one would even really care.
“See, I told you they are attacking us!” /s
This would be why Pootang is having a talk with his lapdog, Drumph, tomorrow! He usually doesn’t act with such unseemly haste LOL. Hopefully, Ukraine will ignore whatever terms those two shitstains manage to come up with, WITHOUT any Ukrainian input.
Hell yeah
Oh no. Darn. /s 🇺🇦
Oh no! Anyway……… 🚙
