That's 159 physical sanctions against ship owners like these. They must be squealing like pigs. Ironically.

Thune signing on tells us all we need to know.
If the House defeated it or Trump vetoed it, it would just be more coal for the midterm bonfire. However passing it would give Trump the mirage of supporting Ukraine and, the actual intention of this support, another opportunity for selling dispensations. With this White House, it's all about the money.

"... propaganda that shows we don't do it so you believe something. We do it so you believe nothing. And more importantly, do nothing."
That's exactly how it works.

The proof is your leaders keep appeasing me with fig leafs like “pragmatic relations” and “escalation management” cos you always think the price of doing nothing won’t increase.
And it always does.

If you promise to stop being such a flaming fig all the time you have a deal.
Are you that addicted to upvotes that you have to get on your knees and praise Ukraine at any opportunity?
They've done an amazing job so far, we all know. We don't need constant reminders.

Except these are tinker toy ships for Russia's rivers and canals

The smaller hulls in the Azov are almost all Russian-owned. Which makes for good viewing. The big stuff outside are shadow fleet with (mostly) Greek ownership. That makes these later videos much more satisfying. In the marine business, when you hear the word "Greek", you put your wallet in your front pocket.

Why do you get so upset when Ukraine does well? Why do you feel the need to jump pro Ukraine posters and seldom if ever pro Russia posters?
As for why I salute Ukraine’s efforts I think that’s obvious. I’m surprised they have stymied Rusdia this long and card causing them so much trouble and I hope they keep it up until Russia quits.

Even the small ones are important. Magyar explains.
A lot of people don't fully understand what's happening around this naval battle. Where did all these tankers come from? What's their mission? And why are the USF Birds hammering them without sinking them, instead turning them into ghost ships drifting at sea? I'll find the time and record a video explaining it all.
For now, here's the short version: PARALYZING russia's feeder fleet – the small and medium 140-meter flat-bottomed "courier" tankers with a deadweight of around 7,000 tons – effectively cripples a major component of russia's shadow fleet. It prevents the export of its "black gold" from river-port oil transshipment bases and loading terminals through the Volga–Don Canal and the Sea of Azov to large tankers. Those larger tankers can't reach the oil terminals or ports because of their draft, so they're forced to load offshore in the Black Sea from these courier tankers, each of them taking on cargo delivered by 12–15 of these little water shuttles.

I'm not upset at all, you just had to throw in something completely unrelated to what was being discussed to make yourself feel better for being a tard I guess

Due to recent advances, Russian forces have now established control over large parts of the tactical ridgeline between the Bakhmut-Siversk line and the Slovyansk-Kramatorsk-Druzhkivka line, putting the last 3 cities of this so-called "fortress belt" at major risk.
With the battle for Kostyantynivka now in its final stages, Russia is developing an offensive in arguably the most crucial part of the entire frontline. Once they are able to capture the entirety of this ridgeline, all of Slovyansk and Kramatorsk will be within range of barrel artillery, and the battles for the cities will effectively start. This, combined with a push from Kostyantynivka and even the Dobropillya area, will be a major setback for Ukraine, and could mark the beginning of the end for these last Donbas cities.
Right now, special attention is being made by the Russian command on clearing the remaining heavily fortified Ukrainian positions between Siversk and Slovyansk, in order to complete their goal of capturing this crucial line of tactical heights. This will allow Russia to bring forward drone operators, barrel artillery, and MLRS to within range of new areas, and allow for deep DRG infiltrations, possibly as far as the eastern outskirts of Slovyansk-Kramatorsk itself.
At the same time, the fall of Kostyantynivka and the beginning of battles for Oleksijevo-Druzhkivka will pose a major threat to Druzhkivka, as the near-continuous and unbroken line of urban areas stretching from Kostyantynivka to Druzhkivka, and even to Kramatorsk, provides cover for additional deep Russian infiltrations.
As of now, forward Russian assault groups are just 5.5 km from the Kramatorsk Airport on the eastern outskirts of the city. The situation is critical, and without counterattacks, it will continue to massively worsen over the coming weeks and months.
