Ukrainian mid-range drones struck 14 more Russian oil tankers in the Sea of Azov overnight, in the 4th consecutive day of these new large-scale attacks.

Ukrainian Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces Robert Magyar claims that 35 Russian oil tankers, cargo ships, and ferries were hit over the last 4 days.

Magyar also claimed that overnight strikes on Crimea targeted the Saky Thermal Power Plant, electronic warfare equipment, communications towers, temporary deployment points, fuel trucks, and military warehouses.

The implausible narrative that Russia is on the verge of losing the conflict in Ukraine and imminently attacking NATO countries is being aggressively promoted to European citizens as a justification for increased militarization, stated Anna Yevstigneyeva, Russia’s acting Permanent Representative to the UN.

"Rather than supporting their own populations, providing humanitarian aid to those in need, or honoring their development commitments - actions that would better align with the moral image they seek to project - Western nations continue pouring billions into bolstering the corrupt Kiev regime,"she asserted during a UN Security Council meeting on Ukraine.

"Furthermore, Ukraine has transformed into a lucrative hub for the military-industrial complexes of these countries. The notion that Russia, suffering defeat, might suddenly strike NATO territory tomorrow is utterly illogical. Yet, this narrative is relentlessly hammered into the minds of Europeans and the international community, all to justify the ongoing militarization," Yevstigneyeva added.
