I mean Ukrainians seem very trashy

Yes they are, but I won't continue too much because it will seem to be obvious propaganda coming from Russian towards Ukrainians.

Ukraine has carried out a drone attack against targets in southern Russia and claims to have destroyed six Russian planes at an airbase in Rostov region.

Security sources told BBC Ukrainian eight more aircraft were badly damaged, while 20 service personnel could have been killed or injured.

The Morozovsk base houses Su-27 and Su-34 aircraft used on the front line in Ukraine, the sources said.

There has been no word from Russia on reports of an airfield attack.

The BBC has been unable to independently verify the reports.

However, Russian officials said that more than 40 drones had been aimed at the region, which borders Ukraine.

BBC Russian military analyst Pavel Aksyonov says an attack by so many drones over a short space of time could have overwhelmed air defences.

Meanwhile, four people were killed and over 20 wounded in Russian missile strikes on the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia, Ukrainian officials said.

The eastern city of Kharkiv also came under air attack, with local authorities reporting two deaths from the Russian bombardment.

Ukrainian drone attacks on oil refineries inside Russia led to a slump in the country’s gasoline production during the last week of March, the Kommersant business daily reported Thursday, citing official data.

Between March 25 and March 31, Russia produced 110,700 metric tons of gasoline per day, a 12% decrease compared to the average output in February. Likewise, diesel production was down 3.5% for the same period, totaling 231,000 metric tons produced per day.

Ukrainian drones targeted at least eight Russian refineries in mid-March, four of which have either partially or completely halted operations.

Thanks to the Ukrainian strikes on refineries in Russia, oil futures jumped to $ 90 per barrel. Futures are the future price.

This is very bad for the American economy, which is trying to curb inflation by raising the key rate. This will negate all their efforts and the country will plunge into stagflation, which can be fatal in light of the huge debt of the United States.

Most likely, the Ukrainians will follow the American orders they ignore for few weeks and stop hitting refineries, transferring strikes to other non-oil infrastructure.

In Moscow and other Russian cities, the number of people wishing to enroll in military service under a contract in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation has increased significantly.

Since the beginning of this year, more than 100 thousand people have already joined the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation for military service under a contract.

At the same time, over the past week and a half, a significant increase in the number of people willing to sign contracts with the Russian Ministry of Defense to take part in a special military operation has been recorded at the points of selection for military service under a contract in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

Up to 1,700 people come to contract selection points across the country every day to enroll in military service. In total, over the past 10 days, about 16 thousand citizens have signed contracts to participate in a special military operation.

During interviews conducted over the past week at selection points in Russian cities, most candidates indicated a desire to avenge those killed in the Belgorod shellings as the main motive for signing a contract.

Earlier, the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Army General Sergei Shoigu, said that by the end of 2024, two combined arms armies and thirty formations, including fourteen divisions and sixteen brigades, are planned to be formed in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

Seems like just a part of recent wave of Ukrainian fake news about countless virtual victories and massive damage.

Seems like just a part of recent wave of Ukrainian fake news about countless virtual victories and massive damage.

Why do you think it is fake? I saw footage and and airfield defenses were overwhelmed. Attack happened but I can't be sure sure of exact damage.

Why do you think it is fake? I saw footage and and airfields defenses were overwhelmed. Attack happened but I can't be sure sure of exact damage.

There are already satellite photos published by Western Media, including Radio Svoboda, before and after attack, none of airplanes are damaged. As for fake news, I mean generally, recently, since February more than half of Ukrainian victorious news turn out to be fake, as some kind for public copium dose, Western allies already made some reminders about it.

⚡️Russian aerial bombs have jeopardized the strategic heights around the Chasov Yar.*

This was stated by the speaker of the Khortytsya group, Nazar Voloshin, in a comment to CNN.*

"Nazar Voloshin, the official representative of the Ukrainian army in the east, acknowledged that artillery and the increased use of planning bombs had jeopardized the strategic heights around Chasov Yar in the Donetsk region," the newspaper writes.

"They are dropping heavy ammunition on us without even flying near the contact line or entering our air defense zone," Voloshin said.

According to him, the same tactics are used in the area of Avdeevka. "When their aircraft is working, it is impossible for our defenders to work, they only need to hide in a shelter," the speaker added.
