Fuel Shortages and Rail Sabotage Isolate Russia - Jason Jay Smart

Russia is experiencing setbacks across multiple fronts simultaneously. On the battlefield, Ukraine is raising its flag over liberated villages, marking significant progress. In the skies, advanced Ukrainian drones, including the new Flamingo cruise missile, are crippling Russian infrastructure. These long-range missiles have a claimed range of 3,000 kilometers and have reportedly been used to strike a Russian facility in Crimea.

Beyond the battlefield, Ukraine is leveraging its capabilities to attack vital Russian assets. Ukrainian drones have caused significant damage to Russian oil refineries, contributing to fuel shortages and rising inflation within Russia. Partisan groups like Atesh are also disrupting Russian logistics by sabotaging rail lines. Additionally, Ukrainian forces have successfully targeted and destroyed a key satellite control system in Crimea that supports the Russian GLONASS navigation network. These coordinated strikes weaken Russia's ability to wage war and have a substantial economic impact, putting increasing pressure on the Kremlin.

With Russia losing ground on the battlefield and its economy being choked by targeted strikes and partisan sabotage, the Kremlin's position grows more precarious by the day.
