Re: Ukraine war thread
Isolation of Crimea: Ukraine is systematically targeting bridge connections between Kherson and Crimea to cut off supply routes (0:02 - 1:07). This has created significant bottlenecks and damage at key crossings like Chanhar (2:31 - 3:02).
Fuel Crisis: Persistent drone strikes have severely impacted fuel availability. Sevastopol and other regions are reporting shortages, forcing civilians to hunt for fuel via QR codes or evacuate the peninsula (3:08 - 6:30). The fuel crisis has now expanded across 25 regions and occupied territories (6:35 - 7:14).
Devastation of Military Logistics: Ukrainian forces are effectively using mid-range and first-person view (FPV) drones to destroy Russian supply trucks, fuel tankers, and command posts (8:11 - 11:25).
Drone Supremacy: Ukraine has established the world's first Unmanned Systems Forces (13:25 - 13:42). In May alone, they struck nearly 180,000 Russian military targets (12:33 - 12:49).
Impact on Russian Oil Industry: Strategic strikes on refineries—including those in Tatarstan and the Samara oblast—have caused Russia's oil output to fall for six consecutive months (20:22 - 23:25).
International Pressure & Morale: Russia has canceled its Red Square concert for the first time in 23 years due to security concerns (26:40 - 27:08). Additionally, YouTube is taking down content promoting sanctioned Russian drone factories that exploit labor (27:08 - 28:33).

BREAKING: Governor of the Russian Central Bank Nabiullina is under de-facto house arrest according to former All-Russia State Television Editor-in-chief Dmitry Skorobutov, exiled in Switzerland.
In a heated exchange at the end of May / early June, she gave Putin an ultimatum: She will quit and leave the country if Putin starts total mobilization.
