You've shown it and obviously discounted my business experience, not my wife's, with such wells. I have never used any Biden Admin talking points, as you claimed earlier.
When in fact you used the same talking points as Putin apologists. As far as oil/gas goes, the issue is more about lack of leases on Fed land while drilling has gone at a breakneck pace on private land, and the increase since 2020 has been dramatic due private enterprise innovation does find ways when the profit opportunity exists. We are in fact at knocking on the 2019 production level for oil, in spite of forever losses which wouldn't have occurred and would still an impact regardless of who is in the White House.

For what it's worth, I've seen those reports as well.
Here is a link to a source; however, I haven't seen this from any of the normal Ukrainian channels

Ukrainian cybersecurity officer killed by Russian missile strike
KYIV, UKRAINE — A 41-year-old Ukrainian cybersecurity officer was among more than 20 killed by Russian missile barrages Monday, according to Ukraine’s Cyber Police Department.
Yuriy Zaskoka headed the critical infrastructure protection department of the Kyiv National Police. He was driving to work in his car when Russia fired missiles into the center of Ukraine’s capital Kyiv, killing 6 people and injuring 50.

Closing the airspace would negate the need for air defense but that would be a huge escalation in Ukraine’s favor not having to worry about Russian animation. Sending the newest air defense systems is also a way to real world test them which is what these are more about than anything I believe. Not to mean Ukraine won’t take it any way they can get it. They have slowly built a solid line of older soviet systems to the newest western tech which will even the playing field in the disparity of air capability. Ammunition for their artillery is the main thing I see as an issue as well as JAVELINs since we have really dug deep into our own stocks on those particular areas and our current rate of production isn’t enough to sustain what is going and it’s not even close. Other countries have to help with 155 mm NATO rounds or all the howitzers in the world won’t matter. It would help if Ukraine to start to produce it but that would be a target from Russia day one. Unless France, Germany and Italy don’t start committing more of their stocks I don’t see an easy answer. We probably need 750,000-1,000,000 artillery rounds just to restock our own reserves. Ukraine needs at least 50,000 shells a month. They were firing 6,000 shells a day in June. That’s not sustainable by either side. I think Ukraine is having to slow down partly for this reason but now. I know we still have decent sized stocks of our 105 guns and ammunition that we have phased out that can help with the problem but it’s not the solution.

Probably the closest credible source was twitted by Anton Gerashchenko.

But that's also why the HIMARS rockets and Excalibur rounds (and the similar smart shells from NATO partners) are so important. When Ukraine can use a precision weapon to destroy an enemy gun or armored vehicle, then they don't need to fire ten rounds in the general area.

Only sent 1,000 Excalibur rounds though. No doubt HIMARS evens the battlefield up but they fire those at a large supply also and I have no idea what we are capable of producing in HIMARS missiles but it has to be strained right now too. Thankfully it seems they are ramping up production in that area but it will still be at least a year before you see any of that on the battlefield.

Sending the switchblade 600 drones would help a tremendous other as well. They are just another form of anti-armor artillery that can loiter for 40 minutes.

Those were sent months ago but haven't heard about success or failure of their use.

War Monitor reported taking of Tokmok but I cannot find it on a map. Closest is Tokmak which would mean an advance halfway to Melitipol

If the Russian were aimed at it You can guarantee that’s the one ducking thing they didn’t hit. Without nukes they wouldn’t even make top ten military’s in the world, what a joke

Don’t disparage KGB or former KGB agents, probably almost none of you have even met, there are some good decent guys that have worked for them

You at least posted a source and have built up enough rapport to say "seeing sources". BKR has been a mix of trolling and honest observations so it wouldn't be shocking if he was just making something up and given the lack of a source it looked that way.
In any case thank you sir. Now enjoy the grandkids

The Druzhba pipeline (Russian: ??????????? «??????»; also has been referred to as the Friendship Pipeline and the Comecon Pipeline) is one of the world's longest oil pipeline and one of the biggest oil pipeline networks in the world. It carries oil some 4,000 kilometres (2,500 mi) from the eastern part of European Russia to points in Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany.[1] The network also branches out into numerous pipelines to deliver its product throughout Eastern Europe and beyond.

The FSB accused Budanov and the Chief Directorate of Intelligence of explosions on the Crimean bridge.
According to the FSB, the explosive device was camouflaged in rolls with polyethylene film on 22 pallets weighing more than 22 tons, in early August and sent from the port of Odesa to Bulgaria. Ukrainian, Georgian and Armenian residents were involved in the shipment.
It is alleged that 12 accomplices to the attack on the Crimean bridge have been identified, and eight of them have been detained.

Electricity in Lwow is from backup sources currently however.

Ukraine continues to perform mop up inside areas taken in Kherson and Luhansk. Large land grabs does take time to get rid of the vermin abandoned by the orcs
