Ukraine has intensified its drone attacks on Russia, setting fire to a major oil refinery in the south and killing at least two people, according to Russian authorities.

        I was hoping that if Russia has no fuel left and people start to starve, that they would finally yield and withdraw from Ukraine.

          The people that matter aren’t the common Russians, they’re the leaders. And the leaders, as always, have plenty of opportunity to make sure that they can eat even if the people are starving. While it is possible for people to bring down the government, it is very difficult. Remember the government has all the guns and they have plenty of opportunity to protect themselves. While Russia does have elections, they are not fair elections. So we know already that Putin will win the next round.
