Ukraine Achieves Big Breakthrough Due to Success Against Russian Navy

Ukraine's successful suppression of the Russian Black Sea fleet has resulted in Kyiv's grain exports rising to their highest levels since the invasion by Moscow began.

-snip-

Russia's Black Sea fleet flagship Moskva was destroyed by Ukraine in the early days of the war. The losses have continued since then, with British Defence Secretary Grant Shapp saying last month that Russia had lost 20 percent of its Black Sea fleet over the course of four months.

Significant recent losses include the December destruction of large Russian landing ship Novocherkassk and last week's revelation that Ukrainian drones sank a Tarantul-class corvette warship during the same month. A September 2023 missile attack on Russia's Black Sea fleet headquarters in Sevastopol also reportedly resulted in significant damage and casualties.

Ukraine has been toast since the beginning of the Russian invasion, yet, they're still standing and fighting.

Ukraine is offering you free citizenship. You even get a field jacket and socks.

Putin offers citizenship to foreigners who fight for Russia as Russian soldiers or mercenaries.

“Jan 4 (Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin issued a decree on Thursday allowing foreign nationals who fight for Russia in Ukraine to obtain Russian citizenship for themselves and their families.
The order said people who have signed contracts during what Moscow calls its “special military operation” in Ukraine can apply to get Russian passports for themselves and their spouses, children and parents. They must provide documents showing that they signed up for a minimum of one year.
Those eligible include people who have signed contracts with the regular armed forces or other “military formations” - a description that could apply to groups such as the Wagner mercenary organisation.”

Ukraine citizenship if you go and fight for them.
Such a deal.
You want to be on the winning team, right?

Two years ago, Putin told his troops to pack their parade uniforms. Comedy.
