Ukrainian missile strikes' blow up oil facilities in Russia

Ukrainian missile strikes' blow up oil facilities in Russia supplying troops in Donbas as British intelligence says Putin's forces have 'yet to achieve a significant breakthrough' and many units are 'exhausted'

Explosions rocked two oil storage facilities - one of that at a military base - in Russian city of Bryansk overnight
Blasts, though to have been caused by Ukrainian missiles, sparked huge fires which raged into the morning

Bryansk is a logistical hub supplying Russian forces in Donbas, where Putin's main offensive is taking place

UK says Russia has yet to achieve any 'significant breakthrough' of Ukrainian defences in the region, because of poor logistical support and ongoing fighting in Mariupol tying up troops

Very happy. Putin is now paying the price of sticking his nose into a Ukranian bear trap. Even better, his current screw-up has reinvigorated NATO into exactly what he didn't want ... a real, actual European Union determined to not accept his drive for dominance. Strange why he was so concerned with 6% of his border actually being "threatened" by NATO when now the result of his most recent ill-considered act of state terrorism has been to bring Finland and Sweden into NATO, throttle the russian economy and leave Putin's face covered with a big shovel full of Ukranian mud. Sincerely. bruce.

Was reading an article recently that part of the Kyiv supply SNAFU was because Belarusians effed up the rail switch gear. So train traffic for moving supplies was snarled up pretty good. Good reminder that not everyone on the other side there is with Putin, just as there are some on this side who are with him.
