## Resource

Russia’s urbanites, once insulated from Ukraine’s war, are now feeling its brutal toll—drone strikes near homes, skyrocketing prices, and empty gas stations fuel a growing sense of frustration. Consumer sentiment hits a four-year low, Putin’s approval dips despite still being high, as everyday life grinds to a halt. Stories like Svetlana’s—once enjoying summer escapes, now living with constant fear and turning to meds or alcohol—reveal the human cost. Ukrainian strikes on oil refineries and warehouses aren’t just distant blows; they’re hitting wallets and routines hard. Even early supporters are questioning the war’s mounting price tag as daily struggles erode initial justifications.
