I don't doubt that Russia can 'wage' a war beyond Ukraine.
I doubt that they can win one.
They can't, and everyone who's honest knows it. The minute that Russia tries to attack a NATO country, NATO jets get air dominance over Crimea, and Ukraine takes it back. Russia absolutely cannot divert any significant resources away from the current conflict, and it will not be able to do so for at least the next five years.

There is just no air defense left in Tuapse, the Ukrainians are hitting it at will.

Water supply has been suspended in Tuapse after a power supply problem at a pumping station linked to the burning refinery. Governor Veniamin Kondratiev said the situation is difficult but under control, while residents of nearby streets are being evacuated.

Where's TACO? You know, it's pretty damned bad when you invite a weenie from the English Royal family to visit and he embarrasses you in your own back yard.

No loading at Tuapse means stacked tankers which attracts attention.

The vessel, flying the Cameroon flag was hit this morning by two unmanned surface drones. At the time of the strike, the tanker was drifting about 210 km southeast of Tuapse.

This is serious. The WW2 Victory Parade in Red Square has been the penultimate show of strength for the Kremlin for eight decades. With this decision, Putin must shut down all broadcasts and possibly substitute video of former year's parades. "The Best of the Victory Parades Video..."
Actually, this parade could easily be held in Kyiv -

I can understand Solovyov's distraction, that classic Russian trout pout would stop a grizzly bear. But he seems to have completey forgotton how to counterpunch.
More importantly, this entire performance was not prevented nor taken down for Russian audiences. Her face is primo click bait and the revenue generated in these tough economic times overrides what she is saying. This bimbo has a future in Russian politics. They just have to convince her to move away from Monaco. Good luck with that.

No, the plan was that Europe would finally do what we had been begging them to do for 30 years - pay for your own defense!
The plan was not for Europe to be weak, but for Europe to face reality and defend Europe so we could focus on confronting the Chinese threat.

We’ve come a long way from the Putin sycophants claiming that he could win the war whenever he wanted, and it was only a matter of time. They were insufferable.

Hyperbole when you consider that the nation getting the sh!t kicked out of them is occupying the nation doing the kicking.

quote:Drones hit oil processing facility in Urals Oilprice.com
A major fire reportedly broke out on Wednesday at a Russian oil pumping station in the Perm region in the Ural Mountains in a suspected drone attack just a day after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy touted the increasing range and accuracy of Ukrainian drones.
Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) targeted a production and dispatch station owned by Transneft more than 1,500 kilometers from Ukraine’s border, with unconfirmed reports indicating that almost all oil storage tanks at the facility were set ablaze.
Perm Governor Dmitry Makhonin confirmed to local media that a drone hit an unspecified industrial facility.
Recently, Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine is entering a "new phase" by expanding the range and precision of its domestically produced drones to limit Russia's war.
Just one day prior, drones struck the Rosneft refinery in Tuapse on the Black Sea for the third time in two weeks. The series of attacks has caused severe environmental damage, including black rain and oil spills in the sea.
Reports have also emerged of attempted drone strikes on industrial facilities in the Orenburg Oblast near Orsk, also approximately 1,500 km from the border. Zelenskyy has thanked the SBU for the precision of these strikes, saying they are "entirely justified responses to Russian terror". He noted that Ukraine is now producing a 50% surplus in some weapon types and is seeking to export its drone technology to partners.
According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Ukraine is now conducting a sophisticated long-range strike campaign, leveraging Russia's massive geography which makes it nearly impossible for the Kremlin to provide comprehensive air defense coverage for every critical facility across thousands of kilometers.
Recent strikes have shifted focus toward critical export hubs, including the Baltic Sea ports of Ust-Luga and Primorsk, which are vital for Russian oil revenue. Ukraine has increased its strike range by roughly 170% since the start of the full-scale invasion, successfully hitting targets over 1,500 km away. Reuters estimates that these strikes have forced Russia to slash oil production by an estimated 300,000 to 400,000 barrels per day, effectively reducing its oil revenues and ability to fund the war.
