## Resource

Putin launched this war to break Ukraine, but the knock-on effects are now spreading through Russia itself. Ukrainian long-range strikes are hitting refineries, missile plants, and military infrastructure. Russian drone production is reportedly being exposed from the inside.

And the Kremlin’s propaganda machine is still trying to sell “stability” while Russia’s own war machine creates the next crisis. This is the chain reaction Putin set in motion — and Ukraine is now pushing it faster.#Ukraine #Russia #UkraineWar #Putin #RussiaUkraineWar #FlamingoMissile #Alabuga #RussianOil #Crimea #Geopolitics #ProfessorGerdesFacts over noise.
