I see what you did with the pins…
This one needs to go as well. Soon I hope

Flamingo is coming. Soon.

Would be so unfortunate if something abnormal occurred at Gryazovets... 😬
Leaving matchboxes lying around seems to be a Russian speciality...
I really appreciate your frequent use of maps because they help me understand the lay of the land (with which I am not familiar). It would also help if the map highlighted the names (with which I’m also not familiar) for the locations you referenced. I do remember Ust-Luga since it was recently hit.
On point
No oil and gas No money No soldiers/war economy No war It's really that easy ...
A lot of pumpstations. Where does the Ukraine drone corps wait for ?
Those pipelines a natural gas pipeline. They start at the Yamal peninsula respectively the Urengoy gas fields and go all the way to Poland, Germany and Ukraine. The Polish part suspended operations in 2022 starting with the Russian full scale invasion of Ukraine.
Among many things these natural gas pipelines are the lifeline of substantial parts of the Russian economy, which has been turned into a war economy. It is therefore a military target.
And all should be blown up 100% especially as European reliance has decreased so much
As far as I'm concerned, under the circumstances ANYTHING is a legitimate target in ruzzia...
With more Ukrainian UAV types entering service, e.g. the Flamingo missile, it is only a question of time until Ukrainian forces will target this pipeline system.
It is made up by several dozens of pump stations and hubs, distributed over the length of more than 5,000 km (3,000 miles), including the Vyborg/Ust Luga line. It is impossible to protect all facilities.
People frequently ask what cards Ukraine has and I point to this case. Russia's large size, which in the past was an advantage, has turned into the exact opposite.
Economic lifelines can be cut at multiple points and with devastating effects, especially when reflecting that Russia failed to divers its economy. It is an economic monoculture firmly based on energy.
NK tanks in any quantity become useless without fuel.
Emxcellent analysis
Pipelines, refineries, storages and ports can be cut of and when necessary be directly destroyed. Russia has only three major ports where oil can be loaded fast and those are Ust-Luga, Novorossiysk and Tuapse. If those are taken out, then Russia can neither make money nor supply its (war) economy.
So that's maybe why we haven't seen those birds in the skies yet: they are getting ready for their migration to their three winter habitats in Russia by the sea.

Targeting Russia's energy infrastructure is the most efficient way to lead Russia's economy into its downfall, and by extension the war. The Soviet Union and its dissolution was caused by an high military budget and falling revenues from energy exports.
Once Moscow wasn't able to continue its aggression, the whole house of cards collapsed. The war in Afghanistan ended with a devastating Russian defeat and the peoples in the Soviet Union were in open rebellion.
Neither the Soviet Army nor the Soviet intelligence services were able to contain the will for freedom. Soviet-Russia instantly lost the Cold War and ceased to exist. It was the greatest achievement in the 2nd half of the 20th century.
Moscow wanted to freeze Kyiv, but the exact opposite may happen. Who knows…
Time for Ukraine to dismantle Russian pipelines on its territory. Make clear they are gone for good.
