Many hours of power outages in Kyiv (and other Ukraine regions) after Russians bombed energy facilities. A darkish but working Auchan supermarket in a closed shopping mall was a new experience. Just a few pictures. This is how it looked from outside, no lights on the facade.

It was around 9 p.m. A calm secutity guard in a vast empty space (on the left). He told me that the supermarket works until 9:30 p.m., but probably the management will close earlier. Image

The word “partial” in Putin’s speech means nothing, as it was not said which part of the population it covers: 5/6 or 1/150. Basically this means a license to recruit as many people as they can supply with guns. And Russians are aware they can trust no word from the authorities. Also the mobilization decree in fact prohibits soldiers from rejecting participation in military operations. They can leave army only due to old age, illness, and prison sentence now. There were plenty of refuseniks/otkazniks before, it looks like Putins wants this to end.

Лікарня у Почаєві. Тут не лишилось жодного лікаря-інфекціоніста. Один звільнився, а інший захворів на COVID-19. Реформа системи охорони здоров‘я не встигла спрацювати до спалаху коронавірусу.
