The Five Stages of Grief hit the Russian influencers. Page after page of rationalization and denial.

Gee
It's almost like they remember who started the war and why and use it to judge the morality of the policies and actions that come out of it.
Fascinating.

Ukrainian drones struck the Bashkir Soda Company in Sterlitamak, Bashkortostan. The facility is one of Russia’s largest chemical complexes and the country’s only producer of terephthaloyl chloride, a precursor used to make high-strength aramid fibers for body armor, helmets and ballistic protection. The plant also supplies chemicals to other Russian defense-industrial enterprises.

A horrific Russian strike on the railway station in Dnipro. The Russians launched a drone attack on a platform where an ordinary commuter train and a scheduled passenger train were standing. Unfortunately, 13 people have been confirmed killed as of now. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Ten more people were injured. All necessary emergency services are working at the scene.
Just how many terrorist strikes has Russia carried out against our people since sanctions were lifted on certain Russian oligarchs and the Russian energy sector, rather than de-escalating? This is precisely why Ukraine has always said that just and decisive action by America and Europe is needed in response to Russian escalation – sanctions against Moscow and its war machine must not be eased for as long as this Russian war continues. It is time for new, stronger sanctions steps by the EU, the United States, and the G7. I thank everyone who is ready to help in this way.

Fourteen killed and 14 injured in Russian attack on train station in Dnipro – video, photos
Anastasia Prots — 29 October, 13:57
Fourteen people have been killed and at least 14 injured in a Russian jet-powered drone attack on the platform of a railway station in Dnipro where the Dnipro-Zaporizhzhia train was standing.
Source: Oleksandr Hanzha, Head of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Military Administration; Dnipro Mayor Borys Filatov; Ukrainian state-run railway operator Ukrzaliznytsia; Oleksandr Pertsovskyi, CEO of Ukrzaliznytsia; correspondents from Ukrainian public broadcaster Suspilne; National Police of Ukraine
Update: According to Hanzha's latest figures, the Russian strike killed 14 people and injured another 14. Thirteen of those injured were hospitalised.
Six people are in a serious condition, including an 11-year-old boy. All those seriously injured have multiple shrapnel wounds. A 40-year-old man has had both legs amputated. Doctors are fighting to save the people.
Details: The police said that the Russians carried out the strike at around 11:00. Hanzha initially reported an attack on transport infrastructure that had left people injured. Filatov said a civilian electric train had been struck.
Quote from Filatov: "Dnipro has suffered a tragedy. A drone hit a civilian electric train. Many people have been killed. Many have been injured."
Details: Ukrzaliznytsia (Ukrainian Railways) said the Russians attacked the station with a jet-powered drone. The strike hit a platform where train No. 866 (Dnipro-Zaporizhzhia) was waiting. The police confirmed that the strike hit the electric train.
Quote from Pertsovskyi: "There's been a strike on the station in Dnipro. An air-raid warning had been issued, but unfortunately there was a significant number of people on the platform. Early reports indicate that many were killed and injured."
Details: Suspilne correspondents at the scene are reporting that those injured are being evacuated from the station to hospital.
Filatov also urged people not to limit reports of such attacks to wording that refers only to damage to infrastructure.
Quote from Filatov: "This is a genocidal war. Have the guts to say things as they are."

At some point do you think Ukraine will target a train station in Moscow or St. Petersburg?
Hope they can continue to restrain themselves but you know it has to be a topic leaders have considered.
Really think they need to return to pounding oil refineries and begin trying to attack the power grid in major population centers.

German defense technology company Helsing has unveiled Contra, an AI-controlled air defense system designed to coordinate responses to large-scale drone and missile attacks. The system combines sensor data, automated command-and-control software, and multiple weapons, alongside two new interceptors developed to counter faster aerial threats.
Announced on October 26, Contra is built around Helsing’s Altra command-and-control platform. The company says it can detect and engage hundreds or thousands of incoming threats simultaneously by combining information from different sensors into a unified air picture. According to Helsing, human operators retain control over decision-making and target prioritization.

I think they need to stay on the high road and attack military targets. Refineries, factories for war goods, etc.
There are plenty of opportunities that don’t involve railway stations, power plants, and shopping centers.

The most bang for the military buck is in order. Terrorizing civilians would be a waste of ordinance.

The Washington Sun reports that Trump administration officials are privately urging US companies to accept Russian diesel cargoes crossing the Atlantic. At least three vessels reportedly sailed for the US after Trump moved to lift sanctions on Russian diesel on October 16. Industry sources say buyers are resisting over legal and reputational risks, despite pressure and substantial discounts being offered by both Moscow and Washington.

Wow. I hope this story is incorrect.
We were told this diesel deal was not for us but the world…. Which was ridiculous because on its face since we don’t control sanctions that other countries might have on Russian products.
I hope none of our companies cave in and buy this diesel.
Guessing trump or other cronies will buy it and flip it in the open market for profit….

Other than hitting the Russian drone logistics stream itself, this is the best solution. Cheap, mass produced, autonomous and nothing can out-fly those .50 freedom notes.

Pundits bring up the notion that you need to put boots on the ground if you are serious about helping Ukraine, but that’s ridiculous. There are many ways to help Ukraine without committing troops. Economic ways are easy to do.
We helped Afghanistan beat back Russia decades ago without putting boots on the ground. Why some want to ignore that strategy and not help Ukraine and enable Russia makes no sense.

EU opposes the plans of the US and Russia to resume the supply of Russian gas to Europe and intends to completely abandon it regardless of further developments in Ukraine.
This was stated by the European Commission's chief spokeswoman.
Brussels' position contradicts the Kremlin's economic proposals, which are being promoted by Kirill Dmitriev.
Maybe we'll hear more laughing from the German peanut gallery about this -

And partially explains the tensions between trump and Europe
Europeans know that if Ukraine falls…. Russia is at their doorstep and Putin’s ambitions won’t stop there.
There’s more to the story of why Trump wants to make “deals” with Putin.
