The Ukrainian Armed Forces' drone raids on russian refineries have reached a new level and could lead to a crisis at the front and in the domestic oil products market - MO
On Friday night, judging by the announcement of the destruction of 120 UAVs by the Ministry of Attack (12 more than the previous record on May 17), the most massive drone attack of the AFU since the start of the war took place. Two oil depots in Adygea and Tambov region were hit and set on fire. On Thursday night, the Afipsky oil refinery near Krasnodar was attacked.
Until now more than 20 oil depots have already been damaged by shelling. According to The Insider's calculations damage had been caused to 15% of the total capacity of refineries.
For now, the state is compensating for the damage to oil producers, in 2023, it was 1.14 trillion rubles. But as damages are mounting the budget funds may not be enough. “There may be a sharp jump in prices at gas stations.” Gasoline production data got hidden since May 2024.

Russia accelerates withdrawal from Crimea. (1/2)
The department of the occupation administration of Crimea, responsible for historical artefacts and cultural sites on the peninsula, has ordered its subordinate institutions to prepare museum property for "evacuation". Ukraine’s National Resistance Center reported this.
This is evidenced by a letter from the so-called ministry of culture of temporarily occupied Crimea to the heads of museum institutions.
The Russians did not indicate the reasons and places for the alleged transportation of valuables.
The National Resistance Center stressed that there had been a risk that the most valuable items would be transported from Crimea to Russia's internationally recognised territory.
In particular, the document, which was handed over to the National Resistance Center, directly refers to the need to clarify the list of "places of evacuation of valuables" in the event of disasters or combat actions.

Russia Forced to Sharply Raise Taxes to Continue War Financing, — British Intelligence
It is reported that the Russian Federation expects tax changes to provide additional budget revenues of about $29 billion in 2025. To achieve this, the corporate income tax rate will increase from 20% to 25%, and the top income tax rate will rise from 15% to 22%.
It's amazing how war has changed with the advent of the drone. Battery powered charging stations are now a vital military item.
Fundraiser #53 Done!!!!
We bought two EcoFlows, one of them has already been received and will be sent to the front tomorrow!
The second one will arrive on June 26-27!
Due to the lack of electricity, their prices have doubled! The first EcoFlow cost us 59,999 hryvnia, it is a little more powerful, the second one, which I already received, cost us ~27,000 hryvnia, it was purchased with the remainder of the excess funds from the resulting fees!
And at my own discretion, I took the guys some goodies!
Thanks for your help, you are the best!
