Clever Ukrainian strategy bombing 'Wildberries' on line shopping. So massively in debt, knocking out warehouses will bankrupt them, taking out 3% of the economy too. 44,000 unemployed in the first 6 days. Wow.

Well that’s embarrassing. Ukrainian drones faked the electronic signature of Russian aircraft. Russians weren't fooled of course. It's just that they shot down their prized $50m Stealth SU-57 in the process.

When there's just nothing on Moscow TV, there's always the window.

Ukraine has been careful not to sink the illegal 48 ‘shadow fleet’ ships it disabled in the last 48 hours to avoid environmental damage by sending the drones directly into the superstructure making them inoperable. Given the age of most of them, it’s likely they will all be scrapped.

Amazing shit in Russia. I was pretty happy that Ukraine disabled 10 mid-size ships the other night but wow, they’ve had a party since then. In the last 48 hours they have disabled a total of 48 ships. No air defense, no air force, no rescue teams. If you’re on one of those ships, you’re on your own.

Once satellite data is analyzed to determine what is left of the refinery and the tanker fleet, it’s likely Ukraine will finish off these jobs during the rest of the week. When Ukraine implements its version of ‘sanctions’ there’s no waiting for years to see the effect.

Last night in the Russian-controlled Azov Sea, Ukraine disabled a cargo ship, a huge military ferry and 8 mid-sized ‘shadow fleet’ oil tankers that transfer oil to the sanction beating supertankers.

There are few lines now in Crimea as there is just no fuel left on the peninsula to buy. The one exception is the 10 k line at the Kursk bridge carrying Russian colonists waiting to be checked for explosives before scurrying back to Russia.

Monday night, Ukraine set fire to Omsk, the largest, most distant Russian oil refinery, 2,500 ks from Ukraine adding to the 42% destruction of refineries this year. Production is already so bad, the world’s 2nd largest oil producer, is importing petrol from India, unimaginable a few months ago.

Russia continues to experience war pain. After the June stats showed no gain on what used to be called the ‘battle front’ and now the ‘kill zone’ the 36,200 soldiers eliminated last month is higher than recruitment for the 5th month in a row.
