📸 We show satellite images of the fire at the Atlas oil depot in the Rostov region of the Russian Federation.
In the photo, which was published by the Russian service of Radio Liberty, it can be seen that two tanks with fuel are on fire, and several more have traces of damage. It is known that the attack was that night.
Officially, Ukraine did not confirm this, but the mass media, citing sources, wrote that the GUR and SSO hit the oil depot of a Ukrainian-made UAV.
How much of this has to happen before they decide in the kremblin that this Three-Day Operation, Comrade has exceeded any sort of acceptable cost level, and that there is only more and more and more of this sunk-cost fallacy into the future beyond the horizon, on this idiotic, destructive and self-destructive warpath?
Things did not go the way they wanted in their greedy cruelty. Neither at home or abroad. They are a pariah nation, seen as a toxic laughingstock. Straight ahead, there is all of the cost with none of the reward by insisting on... what is it at this point, exactly? What is the prize, at this point? Is that society so utterly, bitterly stubborn that they will mindlessly choose only misery every single goddamned time?
The shitty thing is people are dying already, we're well past that point. What needs to change is that somehow still dying on the front is more acceptable than risking it in some kind of mass protest movement.
