@ZelenskyyUa
Our long-range operations are consistent, precise responses to Russia dragging out the war and attacking Ukrainian cities and communities.
Last night, Defense Forces units struck the Poltavska oil depot in the Krasnodar region. The target was approximately 300 kilometers from the front line. This morning, the Security Service of Ukraine hit two oil refineries in Ufa Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim and Bashneft-Novoil. Thats 1,500 kilometers from the front line.
We are implementing our long-range sanctions plan. I thank all Ukrainian warriors who ensure our precision. The Russians should be thinking about real diplomacy instead of once again trying to trick others or buy time. The war must be brought to an end.

When Western powers offered to get him out of Ukraine when it was attacked, he said, "I don't need a ride, I need ammo!"

No, not anymore. Which is probably why Trump is abandoning them, but there was talk of him wanting a Trump Tower in

If there was a Trump Tower in Moscow I bet it would have already been hit by a drone. Or just blown up from it's base

Any reports of Russian troops leaving Crimea? Once the civilians are gone any troops will be sitting ducks
