1/ Summer vacations in Crimea are definitely off, in the face of constant Ukrainian drone attacks and worsening fuel shortages across the peninsula. The Crimean economy is said to be in deep trouble, with factories and amenities closing, and workers being laid off en masse. ⬇️

2/ 'Your News' laments:

"Comrades from Crimea report: the resort season on the peninsula has been almost completely cancelled.

Fuel is hard to come by, or not available at all."

3/ "Destroyed factories and oil depots are not resuming operations, but simply disappearing from the economic map along with their workers.

Hundreds of workers are being sent on unpaid leave or simply laid off due to a lack of jobs.

4/ "Cafes, restaurants, hotels—in general, Crimean businesses have ground to a halt.

No fuel means no tourists.

No tourists means no business in Crimea. Exactly.

Add to this the regular shelling of cities on the peninsula, and the picture becomes especially frightening.

5/ "Drones are flying to Crimea based on American intelligence, using American components, purchased with American money.

Secretary of State Rubio told us directly: "We support Ukraine, Ukraine is ours, we don't need a Russian victory."

He said this several times.

6/ "Negotiator Witkoff and Trump's son-in-law Kushner are planning to visit Moscow.

Iran is celebrating its victory over them, and we're preparing to give them a warm welcome.

7/ "We'll be trying to persuade them to put pressure on Zelenskyy.

We'll be feeding him more peanuts.

What's that saying about war and shame?

That's exactly it.

It's sickening." /end
