President Vladimir Putin is facing trouble in his ongoing war in Ukraine, days before the country's election, which is expected to result in the Russian leader remaining in power until at least 2030.
This week has so far been tumultuous for the Russian president. On Tuesday night, the country was attacked by more than 60 Ukrainian drones, according to the Russian Defense Ministry, with targets including a Federal Security Service building in the southern Belgorod region and an oil refinery—both of which sustained damage.
Multiple incursions by Russian defectors were also launched on Russian soil. The militia groups Freedom of Russia Legion and Russian Volunteer Corps, which both back Kyiv in the ongoing war, said on Tuesday they were "on the attack."
Russian oil production is down as much as 10 percent after drone strikes on multiple key refineries and hubs, including on three of the five largest installations in the country—the Ryazan refinery, which is oil giant Rosneft's largest, as well as two others, in Kstovo in the Nizhny Novgorod region and in Kirishi in the Leningrad region.
Moscow's military has also lost some of its prized military aircraft, including an Su-27 fighter jet that crashed in the Belgorod Oblast bordering Ukraine on Tuesday, and a Il-76 transport plane, which crashed after takeoff from an airbase in the city of Ivanovo to the northeast of Moscow on the same day.

How will all this mess turn out? Wait and see. Predicting the future has never been an exact science.
One thing is less debatable. Our debt: $34.5 trillion and rising rapidly. That's the nightmare, and a forecast of its potentiality to further weaken the US is far more straight forward.
