Indeed. Put people back in the position they would have been in, had your warmongering not happened.
I hope that principle consigns Russians to poverty for generations, with no prospect whatsoever of rebuilding their war chest for a hundred years.
The legacy of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. Not so much Peter the Great, but Vlad the not quite the legacy intended.

If you have a little time to spare (1 hour), this new BBC documentary is compelling and deeply moving stuff of daily realities of brave souls on the front line (defending a railway line)
A brave ukrainian unit who agreed to all wear bodycams.

Multiple reports of an attack by a large drone on a Russian Shaheed drone factory in Yelabuga, Tatarstan.
Savour the emotional response by an 'Alabuga' representative. No sense of irony whatsoever.

His theatrical response makes it seem like a false flag! Good strike though
. It's a long way again - the US will be delighted it's not another refinery

Did you spot the robot patting him on the head?

The drone attacks are hurting Russia. This is Andrey Kartapolov, member of the state Duma, and head of the Russian Defense Committee:
So it wasn't a military facility
.We have to say a big thanks to the Russians that share videos of their refineries, jets and now a drone factory going up in flames...lovely that they share the joy
According to Denys Davydov's sources the drone factory itself is still intact.
It's been heavily reported that Russia uses students (15-18years) from the local Poly to assemble the drones, long hours, low pay... many parents have therefore withdrawn their kids from the Poly.

Is a light aircraft for sure, probably with extra fuel tanks and almost certainly, remotely operated.
My monies on the Ukrainian home built Aeroprakt A22

Wow, Yelabuga is around 800 miles into Russia. Impressive.

An interesting article on Ukraine's progress in rebuilding its own weapons manufacturing, sometimes joint ventures with European and British companies.
According to Denys Davydov:
"Chechen Askhab Uspanov, detained on suspicion of involvement in the terrorist attack in Crocus, died in police custody from torture. Numerous signs of beatings were found on his body, his ribs and spine were broken, and there were signs of suffocation on his neck. The security forces tortured him for several hours until he died. This is reported by the 1ADAT movement."
