Just like power outages over the coming winter in Ukraine would
mean nothing to those cheering the success of the drone attacks.
Ukrainians having to endure a harsh winter amid power cuts is a
small price to pay for taking out Russian refineries.

Emergency power outages have been introduced in the city of Kyiv as well as Kyiv, Sumy, Dnipropetrovsk and other oblasts on the morning of 27 October.
Source: press services for the oblast energy companies and DTEK, the largest private energy company in Ukraine
Quote from DTEK: "On the orders of Ukrenergo [Ukraine's state-owned electricity transmission system operator], emergency power outages have been introduced in Kyiv, Kyiv Oblast and Dnipropetrovsk Oblast."
Details: Energy companies said they will provide updates if the situation changes.
In addition, Sumyoblenergo, Sumy's distribution system operator, announced emergency outages for its consumers.
The same situation is occurring in Cherkasy, Poltava, Kirovohrad, Zhytomyr and Kharkiv oblasts.
Background: Part of the Sumy hromada was left without electricity as a result of the Russian attacks. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]

" The starting point for calculations can also be misleading. Russia’s refining capacity is not equal to output. Every year, Rb ussia refines up to 270 million tons—so at least 22% of the country’s total capacity is always idle (there are various reasons for this, but one is that there is a lot of old equipment in place that just hasn’t been decommissioned). Russian domestic consumption of oil products is about 120 million tons a year, with the rest sent for export. "
For all the dumb asses laughing at my facts.

I am sure that there is a Vlad that works for the Carnegie Endowment but I doubt its the same Vlad you are thinking of.
Apparently Putin has done more damage than just on the
economy of his country. So far he has brought emergency
power outages on Kyiv, Sumy, Dnipropetrovsk, Cherkasy,
Kharkiv, Poltava, Kirovohrad and Zhytomyr oblast. It is great
no cities of NATO members are attacked so they can carry
on funding the proxy war on good conscience until all are destroyed
by Putin.
Oil$gas is always happy to defend the poor oil despot.
You gotta hold on to that power while you can.
Not sure I would consider it collapsing but their economy has definitely slowed down. Persistent inflation close to 10% and interest rates hovering around 20%. China and India are both investing heavily in the country which is helping them overcome the western sanctions. Overall the Russia economy is in much better shape than Ukraine's.
Obviously these drone strikes will face retaliation. Get this fucking war ended already.

India isn't buying oil, Greek shipping won't take it.
Neither are people with Ukranian flags or Russian flags on their profile. Look at the Carnegie Endowment report. That profile essentially says "I am a Ukrainian Propagandist"
You sound pissed...you ok?
Never felt better!
The Dennis MiIller in me is coming out! He was such a great comic, master of good natured, witty sarcasm before he went ultra-right wing.
This 20 year old "I don't want to go off on a rant... but... RANT is classic and very prescient given the Ukraine situation and the weakling Chamberlain-like response of the USA.
If sincere, you demonstrate your fundamentally cowardly core character.
Ukrainians are not in the business of taking out Russian oil refineries or explosives plants for fun, or to hurt innocent Russian civilians.
Ukrainians are fighting for their very lives, and freedom against a BRUTAL, inhumane aggressor who, as you clearly point out, targets essential CIVILIAN infrastructure for the SOLE purpose of causing human suffering.
You expect Ukrainians, or anyone, to just lay back, surrender and allow themselves to be taken over by a madman who will, like Stalin, kill his own people in vainglorious pursuit of going down in history as some "Vladimir the Great "?
The only Vladimir the Great of our era is wearing a Blue uniform, not a Red one. Guererro literally translates into Warrior
Slava Ukraine, Heroyam Slava and Heroyam Gurerro!
If you honestly think anyone is going to list the thousands of tyrants for the purpose of this discussion... you are being pedantic and have no business in this discussion.
First, if you believe the numbers Russia publishes on their economy, I've got a bridge to sell you in Crimea.
Second, I agree. Get this war ended already! Send, sell, give of lend Ukraine the resources they need to send Russia packing BACK to their own country.
If you think your hero is going to end this war on "Day One" by an Executive Order signed in Sharpie...I've got some Trumpcoin I can sell you!
I would say the Carnegie Endowment is PRO USA and they STILL say Russia produces more then 2x refined products then they use, so you can pretty much take that to the bank.
