[NewsFrontTime] 23:07 Two bases for storing fuel for Ukrainian military equipment near Dnepropetrovsk and Pavlograd in the Dnipropetrovsk region, five weapons depots were destroyed, the military department said.

22:29 Ukrainian media have been reporting new explosions since Tuesday morning, in particular, in Kyiv, Vinnitsa, Rivne, Dnepropetrovsk, Odessa, Nikolaev, Lvov regions, as well as Krivoy Rog, Ivano-Frankivsk, Zaporozhye.

22:11 The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported that the Russian armed forces continued on Tuesday massive strikes with precision-guided weapons at military command and energy facilities in Ukraine.

21:50 In the Chernihiv region, an emergency shutdown of the power line that fed the north of the region occurred, some of the settlements were left without electricity, Ukrainian media write.

21:20 In Kyiv, the oldest metropolitan monument to Pushkin, which was installed in Pechersk near the transport university, was demolished. The bust was brought in 1899 from St. Petersburg.

19:41 In Kyiv, Vinnytsia, Chernihiv, Sumy, Ternopil, Cherkasy and other regions, “scheduled” power outages began. Ukrainians are urged to limit the consumption of light in order to reduce the load on the electrical systems of Ukraine.

19:25 Four electrical substations have been disabled in Lviv, the mayor of the city said. It will take months for them to recover, he said.

16:44 The heavy industry of Ukraine continues to suffer losses. Metallurgical plant ArcelorMittal Krivoy Rog stops work due to energy collapse. The decision was made after the announcement of rolling blackouts in the region (rocket strikes disabled the Krivorozhskaya TPP).

16:37 Another 3-4 days of such missile strikes, and the energy system of Ukraine will collapse completely. These are the forecasts of Ukrainian power engineers. Now about 15 percent of objects are damaged, which can be quickly restored. Therefore, it is necessary to bring the indicator to 60 percent. Behind him - a complete collapse and the Middle Ages.

16:05 According to estimates by US think tanks, Russia has at least 1,830 conventional OTRs and their delivery vehicles, which allows it to strike Ukraine's critical infrastructure with packages of 100 missiles daily for six months, not even taking into account replenishment from existing production facilities.

15:26 In the Dnipropetrovsk region, a regime of total energy savings is being introduced after the Russian strikes on the energy infrastructure - local authorities.

15:11 The authorities of the Lviv region confirm the destruction of two electrical substations as a result of today's strikes.

15:00 It is reported that missile attacks today disabled a number of Starlink satellite communication terminals. In the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the situation is close to the loss of control of units.

14:22 In the Dnipropetrovsk region, there are hits on the energy infrastructure, a number of settlements were left without electricity - power.

14:57 New briefing by the Russian Defense Ministry. Main:

- In the Kupyansk direction, the enemy unsuccessfully tried to attack Russian positions near the points of Krakhmalnoe in the Kharkiv region and Stelmakhovka in the LPR, was thrown back to their original positions, up to 40 Ukrainian soldiers were destroyed

- In the Krasnolimansky direction, the Ukrainian forces again tried to force the Zherebets River near the Raigorodka and Novovodyanoye points in the LPR, their crossings were destroyed, up to 20 Ukrainian soldiers were destroyed, the company that was going to help them fell into a minefield - part of the equipment was blown up, the personnel were hit by Russian artillery, over 80 soldiers killed

- In the Zaporozhye direction, the enemy counterattacked at the points of Nikolskoye, Novomayorskoye and Stepnoev DPR, all attacks were repelled, more than 30 soldiers, one tank were destroyed

- In the Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog direction, Ukrainian troops tried to advance in the direction of the points of Borozenskoye, Pyatikhatki, Bruskinskoye, Ishchenko in the Kherson region and Petrivskoye in Nikolaevskaya, the enemy was thrown back to their original positions, about 150 soldiers, six tanks were destroyed.

13:44 Ukrainian TG channels report shooting in Kyiv. According to preliminary data, they are shooting at a drone.

13:29 The entire center of Odessa is de-energized. Earlier it was reported about the loss of electricity in the Primorsky district of the city.

13:09 Two bases for storing fuel for Ukrainian military equipment near Dnepropetrovsk and Pavlograd in the Dnipropetrovsk region, five weapons depots, including the united group of Ukrainian troops "Primorye" near Nikolaev - the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation were destroyed.

12:55 As a result of a missile attack on Lviv, 30 percent of the city was left without electricity. In two districts of the city interruptions in water supply. Mayor Andrei Sadovy announced this. Ukrainian channels also report that there are interruptions in communication in the city.

12:04 Calls are heard on the radio in Kharkiv to go over to the side of the Russians

A video appeared on the network, presumably from Kharkiv, in which residents heard on the radio a call to contact the Russian military in case of emergency, as they can provide the necessary assistance.

11:52 Strikes. Second day. Preliminary.

The intensity of the strikes is not reduced compared to the previous day, the launch sites are the same. This means that the same launchers are used throughout the country.

Under the impact of the electrical infrastructure, a new element in tactics has become a systemic defeat of railway junctions, the enemy is trying to offset the failure of air defense with old video recordings of missiles being shot down. Kyiv's theses that "there is no panic" are not confirmed from the ground.

11:46 In the Ivano-Frankivsk region of Ukraine, strikes were recorded on the critical infrastructure - the authorities. In Vyshgorod, a distribution substation on the left bank is on fire; it caught fire from a power surge. Now it will be a normal picture. The network will destroy itself.

11:32 Arrival in Pavlograd via the railway junction. At the station was a train with military equipment of the Nazis.

11:30 Explosions are heard in Vinnitsa and Volnogorsk, Ukrainian media report.

11:27 A missile attack was launched on Pavlograd.

11:17 Ukrainian publications write about new explosions in Krivoy Rog.

11:00 It is reported about explosions in the Nikolaev area.

10:06 In the Kherson region, air defense systems repelled attempts by Ukrainian troops to launch a missile attack on the Antonovsky bridge - Stremousov.

The Russian Navy launched 10 Kalibr missiles from the Black Sea.

10:05 Explosions are heard in the Khmelnitsky region of Ukraine - the authorities.

09:41 New explosions are reported in the Kyiv region.

09:32 Explosions are reported in Rivne and Krivoy Rog.

09:31 Missiles are reported in the Zhytomyr region.

09:26 The authorities of Kyiv announced that they are introducing hourly power outages - their duration will be up to four hours.

09:24 Ukrainian media report explosions in Vinnitsa

09:22 Ladyzhynska TPP, on the territory of which today arrived two Geranium-2s is an important goal in terms of systemic impact on the energy system of Ukraine. Together with a cascade of hydroelectric power stations on the Dniester, the Ladyzhynska TPP feeds the southwest of the country.

It works in addition to the South Ukrainian NPP - in this way, a shortage of electricity will be created in the section of the power grid, which cannot be overcome due to the defeat of the Kryvorizka TPP (yesterday) and Ladyzhenskaya TPP (today).

Capacities have been knocked out, and generation by the forces of one nuclear power plant is unlikely to be able to cover the need. It turns out that during the astronomical day all major thermal stations were affected.

09:00 An air raid alert has been declared throughout Ukraine.

08:10 An air alert has been announced in a number of regions in Ukraine, including in Kyiv. There were reports of an attack on the Ladyzhynska TPP in the Vinnitsa region.

08:05 Retribution strikes continue: Loud in Zaporozhye. At around 0600 hrs, strikes began, and at least 16 explosions were heard. In several districts of the city, there is now a strong fire and pillars of smoke are visible, there are also power outages, according to Vladimir Rogov, a member of the main council of the Zaporizhzhia Regional State Administration.

#1  I posted this Nazi style speech yesterday, but, he said something that explains the true reason Putin decided to invade Ukraine.
They are really Russians and are being controlled by evil folks even though they elected their government and change their government, unlike Russian slaves.

Here's the Nazis side of this debate, not Ukrainians:

#4  If Russian culture wasn't so evil, I'd sympathize with the victims of it. This shows how Russian culture is, they don't care at all for each other:

This is what Tucker Carlson and many right wing yanks want:

#15  Listen to a conscripted Russki soldier in Kherson province. I pray the Russians wise up and become POWs or kill their own leaders and flee, but, if not, they need to die asap so Ukraine can remain a free nation:

#18 so Ukraine can remain a free nation

Banned all opposition parties

Banned use of Russian by the Russian-speaking majority in the eastern provinces and everywhere else

Shelled the hell out of those same regions in escalating attacks from Feb. 17, 2022 onward

Constant shelling of civilians in Donetsk for the last 7 months

Terrorism attacks in Russia and constant lying about fake rapes and other rage “war crimes”

The most corrupt, worst kleptocracy in the Northern Hemisphere, stealing now from Uncle Sam, diverting billions in weaponry to enrich themselves with illegal sales on the international black market

Official, full-bore, unapologetic support for the notorious Nazi leader Stepan Bandera who oversaw the slaughter of 800,000 Ukrainian Jews

Is that the “free nation” you have in mind?

#21 Like that guy from The Princess Bride said, "Never invade a country that launders money for the Democrats".

“I felt a great disturbance in the Grift...as if millions of rice bowls suddenly cracked, and were suddenly gone."

Is it just me or do you get the sense that we're not doing that "End of History" thing anymore?

Where ever you are, is it OK for you and your family to be raped and murdered by a strong neighbor?
