Day 1301 of Ukraine fighting for its survival. The right to be free, speak their own language, worship in their own churches, to learn their own history.
A history of long suppression by Russia.
As war crimes grow daily, the words "never again" don't seem to apply.

Yesterday began, and ended, with Russia attacking Zaporizhzhia, injuring civilians.
Also, the head of the IAEA disgraced himself in Russia's arms, changes of 🇺🇦army leadership, and how a Russian guy was a Putin opponent, until 3 mins after being elected.

Another blow to Russia's oil industry as Ukraine has managed to strike the Saratov refinery once again.
Explosions and a fire were heard + seen.
The Saratov Refinery specializes in the production of gasoline, diesel fuel & side products.
In 2023 it processed 4.8m tons of oil.

US Treasury Secretary says he 'guarantees' that "If Europe put substantial secondary tariffs on the buyers of Russian oil, the war would be over in 60 or 90 days."
Scott Bessent reiterated the US will act if Europe acts and also stops importing oil itself.
Sound reasonable?

Well, yes, but here's the thing.
Most analysts (correctly) point out the US would financially benefit a lot with its own oil exports.
However no-one seems to have considered it could be a carefully manufactured "escape clause" for Trumputin.

..a sanctions bill. Putin's buddies in Hungary + Slovakia can veto any action against Russian oil imports. In which case, no extra tariffs can be imposed.
Trump throws his hands up, saying "I tried", blames the EU, stops all support for Ukraine
Putin, Xi, Orbán, Fico happy

Ukraine claims almost 50 components in Russia's latest jet drone are from overseas.
Half of the 45 identified come from the USA says Kyiv, with 8 Chinese and 7 from Switzerland.
Germany, the UK and Japan also contributed smaller amounts.

More photos from the scene of the fire in southern Kyiv region, where the Epicentre warehouse still burns after Russia's drone attack.
Multiple brigades, agencies and volunteers are helping try to quell the fire, including helicopters dousing the building.
