Live from Ukraine ????????
Chernivtsi Rescue operations in Kyivs Sviatoshyn district ended only in the early afternoon yesterday. 130 rescuers and 21 vehicles from the State Emergency Service of Ukraine worked for over 30 hours to remove more than360 tons of rubble, under which the Russian Armed Forces had buried dozens of families, hitting the nine-story residential building where they lived on Sunday night.
Eleven more people, in addition to the 44 already known, were rescued, while four others, including a two-month-old baby, died.
The peace efforts that is, the lack of resolution from US President Donald Trump and the ineffectiveness of actions by the rest of the international community have resulted in the most intense Russian attack since the start of the war:dozens of glide bombs, along with 850 drones and various missiles, swept through about forty localities in Ukraine on the night of September 7th. Nearly 200 more continued this inhumane destruction yesterday, once again targeting Ukraines civilian infrastructure.
For the first time since the war began,even a government building in the heart of the capital was hit, pierced by the 450 kg warhead of a 9M727 Iskander cruise missile, which luckily did not detonate. Damaged by a barrage of Russian Geran-2 drones,the 1,700-meter-long Kryukivsky Bridge was also affected, temporarily stopping car and rail traffic across the Dnipro River between the two sides of the Kremenchuk district in Poltava oblast.The Trypilska thermal power plant, located in Obukhiv district, was once again targeted, leaving several districts of Kyiv oblast without power.
Deliberately targeting the Ukrainian civilian population, these attacks continue almost without pause asRussia tries to maximize damage to Ukraines power generation facilities, electricity transmission and distribution networks, and gas systems. Just an hour before this article was published, Russian aircraft again struck the DTEK enrichment plant in the Donetsk region. On August 26, it targeted a mine belonging to the same company, killing one worker and wounding three.
As TopLead analysts noted,those who claim this strategy is retaliation for Ukrainian attacks on Russian hydrocarbon refinery and storage infrastructure are lying, because the Russian Federation has never stopped targeting Ukraines energy system. In the first half of 2025, it caused damage to that infrastructure 61 times, firing more than 600 drones and other missiles of various types at it. As usual because this is the Russians standard warfare tactic in the autumn offensive,Moscow will intensify these attacks, plunging Ukraine into darkness and cold. Since the beginning of September, over 2,000 Russian high-explosive drones, nearly a thousand cruise missiles, and about ten ballistic missiles have already been fired for this purpose.
Its pointless to expect that any diplomatic effort will somehow satisfy a dictator who openly turns diplomacy into a mockery. Vladimir Putin has no plans to stop the war he started. He will find opportunities as long as Washington permits it, and funding as long as Brussels decides to halt financing his terror. Reading on Bloomberg that among the possible measures of the 19th package of European sanctions against Moscow, restrictions on the operation of Russian payment and credit systems and cryptocurrency platforms are being considered whennearly two billion euros flow from the EU to Russia each month for oil, gas, and LNG purchases, is an outrage.
According to analysts at Ember, with 4 billion cubic meters (bcm) imported annually, Italy is the largest consumer of Russian gas in the EU. The Czech Republic is second with 2 bcm, and France is third with 1.7 bcm. With an overall increase of 18% over 2023, the EU collectively purchased 38 to 45 bcm last year. Belgium and France rank second and third in Russian LNG imports, and they continue to buy more every year, even during wartime.
Its hard to call willing countries that claim to defend Ukraine but finance those thousand missiles a night, purchasing record amounts of the very energy sources Russia is depriving it of.
外交鬧劇

來自烏克蘭的報導
Chernivtsi基輔斯維亞托申區(Sviatoshyn district)的救援行動直到昨天下午早些時候才結束。來自烏克蘭國家緊急事務局的130名救援人員和21輛車工作了30多個小時,清除了360多噸的廢墟,這些廢墟下掩埋著數十個家庭,那是俄羅斯武裝部隊週日晚上襲擊了他們居住的九層住宅樓。
除已知的44人外,還有11人獲救,另有4人死亡,其中包括一名兩個月大的嬰兒。
所謂的和平努力實際上就是美國總統唐納德特朗普不存在的解決方案以及國際社會其餘成員的無效行動導致了俄羅斯自戰爭開始以來最猛烈的襲擊:9月7日晚,數十枚滑翔炸彈,以及850架無人機和各種導彈席捲了烏克蘭約四十個地區。昨天,近200(無人機)再次瞄準烏克蘭的民用基礎設施繼續進行這種不人道的襲擊。
自戰爭開始以來,即使是位於首都中心的政府大樓也首次遭到襲擊,大樓被一枚9M727伊斯坎德爾巡航導彈的450公斤彈頭擊穿,幸運的該導彈是沒有爆炸。俄羅斯天竺葵-2型無人機的一連串攻擊損壞了1,700米長的克留科夫斯基大橋(Kryukivsky Bridge),導致波爾塔瓦州克列緬丘格區(Kremenchuk district)的兩側第聶伯河上的汽車和鐵路交通的暫時中斷。位於奧布希夫區(Obukhiv district)的特里皮爾斯卡(Trypilska)熱電站,,再次成為襲擊目標,導致基輔州(Kyiv oblast)的幾個地區斷電。
這些襲擊是蓄意針對烏克蘭平民的,因為俄羅斯試圖最大限度地破壞烏克蘭的發電設施、輸電和配電網路以及天然氣系統,這些攻擊幾乎沒有不間斷的繼續著。就在本文發表前一小時,俄羅斯飛機再次襲擊了頓涅茨克地區的DTEK濃縮工廠。8月26日,俄羅斯還襲擊了同一家公司所屬的一座礦井,造成一名工人死亡,三人受傷。
正如TopLead分析師所指出的,那些聲稱這種襲擊是對烏克蘭襲擊俄羅斯碳氫化合物煉油廠和儲存基礎設施的報復的人是在撒謊,因為俄羅斯聯邦從未停止攻擊烏克蘭的能源系統。在2025年上半年,它對該基礎設施造成了61次破壞,向其發射了600多架無人機和各種型別的導彈。像往常一樣因為這是俄羅斯的標準作戰戰術在秋季攻勢中,莫斯科將加強這些攻擊,使烏克蘭陷入黑暗和寒冷。自9月初以來,俄羅斯已經為此目的發射了2,000多架高爆無人機,近1,000枚巡航導彈以及大約10枚彈道導彈。
指望任透過外交努力能以某種方式滿足一位公開將外交變成一場鬧劇的獨裁者是毫無意義的。弗拉基米爾普丁沒有計劃停止他發動的戰爭。只要華盛頓不阻止,他就會找到機會,只要布魯塞爾決定停止資助他的恐怖活動,他就會找到資金。在彭博社上讀到,在歐洲針對莫斯科的第19輪制裁方案的措施中,正在考慮限制對俄羅斯支付和信貸系統以及加密貨幣平台的運營,而歐盟每月有近20億歐元流向俄羅斯,用於石油、天然氣和液化天然氣的購買,這令人憤慨。
據Ember的分析師稱,義大利每年進口40億立方米(bcm),是歐盟最大的俄羅斯天然氣消費國。捷克共和國以20億立方米排名第二,法國以17億立方米排名第三。與2023年相比,總體增長了18%,歐盟去年共購買了38至45億立方米。比利時和法國在俄羅斯液化天然氣進口量中分別排名第二和第三,即使在戰時,它們也在繼續逐年增加購買量。
很難稱那些聲稱要保衛烏克蘭但卻為每晚資助數千枚俄羅斯導彈的國家為志願聯盟,它們購買了創紀錄數量的俄羅斯正在剝奪烏克蘭的能源資源。
