Zelensky: ”ENOUGH IS ENOUGH”!

from Daily Updates on Russian Invasion of Ukraine Hosted by Professor Gerdes

I examine Ukraine’s reported Neptune missile strike on Borisoglebsk airfield in Russia’s Voronezh region, roughly 340 kilometers from the border. Ukraine says six Su-34 fighter-bombers were damaged; satellite imagery and Russian aviation commentary provide partial corroboration, with the strongest available evidence suggesting four aircraft may have been destroyed beyond repair. The larger question is strategic: aircraft used to launch glide bombs at Ukrainian frontline towns remain vulnerable when Russia relies on airfields too close to the war. I also cover the reported strike on the Ryazan oil refinery after Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine would resume attacks on Russian energy facilities, Russia’s 580-drone barrage, and the strike on an Odesa supermarket. Russia’s response—calls for aircraft dispersal, concrete shelters, camouflage, and rapid debris removal—reveals the operational pressure created by long-range Ukrainian strikes. I assess the Patriot-interceptor bargain Zelensky proposed and why sanctions-relief signals may shape Moscow’s escalation calculus. 00:00 Neptune strike on Borisoglebsk airfield 06:14 Ryazan refinery strike and energy truce 08:44 Russia’s 580-drone attacks on Ukraine 11:26 Battlefield losses and front-line pressure 13:09 Operation Vivaldi and Ukraine’s military position 15:00 Leadership, diplomacy, and a just end to the war 16:00 Starlink questions and brigade support #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraineWar #Su34 #NeptuneMissile #Borisoglebsk #Odesa Facts over noise.
