Here is an update on the Druzhba pipeline situation.

Ukraine has blown up the pumping station that feeds the pipeline. In order to understand why this is so critical, you have to know where the oil from Kaleykino pumping station, in Tartarstan, goes to. It is used for supplying the #Russia shadow fleet, in the Baltic and Black Seas.

Latvia is offering to supply the electricity of an entire power plant, to substitute for any cuts from Slovakia and Hungary.

The EU is considering removing Hungary's voting rights, as the current government is anti-EU, but is currently only giving the Ukraine an immediate emergency package and awaiting the results of the Hungarian election on April 12th.

In other news: #Ukraine is taking advantage of the (Elon-ordered) Starlink blacklist and (Putin-ordered) Telegram ban to push the defensive line back in Dnipropetrovsk. Russian military intelligence is currently in shambles, as it was based upon these two systems. The number of drones launched has noticeably declined. They are slowly switching to unencrypted Russian coms and sparse Chinese satellites, but this is a major and permanent setback.

It is rumored that the Telegram ban is a precursor to some larger political turmoil within Russia that might require spying on the citizenry or a media blackout, such as an unpalatable end to the war or general mobilization.

It should be noted that most of the Russian plane crashes, industrial fires, and blackouts are not caused by Ukrainian attacks, but by chronic under-maintenance, lack of skilled workers in the civilian industry, or low-quality supplies from China.
