On Wednesday night, drones hit a Russian oil base in the city of Engels, Saratov region. About 40 explosions were heard in the city and a huge fire started. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine acknowledged the attack and noted that we are talking about the storage base of oil products at the Kristall Combine. It supplied fuel to the Engels-2 military airfield, where Russian strategic aviation is based. “The defeat of the oil depot creates a serious logistical problem for the strategic flight of Russian invaders and significantly reduces their ability to strike peaceful cities and civilian targets of Ukraine,” added the General Staff. The fire intensified in the afternoon and another tank was reported to be on fire.
The US President’s newly elected special representative for Ukraine and Russia, Keith Kellogg, aims to try to find a solution to the war within 100 days of Donald Trump’s inauguration. He said this in an interview with Fox News. “People need to understand: he is not trying to give something to Putin or the Russians, he is really trying to save the sovereignty of Ukraine and he guarantees that it is fair and honest,” he stressed.
American businessman Elon Musk rudely responded to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in a message on the social network X, where the politician excluded Canada from joining the United States as 51 states. “Girl, you’re not the governor of Canada anymore, so it doesn’t matter what you say,” Musk wrote.
Meanwhile, Musk’s biographer, Seth Abramson, says he’s going crazy, “given that he’s admitted to mental illness, heavy drug use and extreme stress, there’s now reason to fear he’s seriously ill ,” Abramson said. He said Musk’s approach to the presidency meant his insanity and growing incitement to violence in the world “puts us all at risk.”
The Commander of the Ukrainian Ground Forces, Mikhail Drapaty, reported to President Vladimir Zelensky about the situation in the 155th Anna Kievskaya Mechanized Infantry Brigade, which was prepared by France. He admitted that during the generation of the new brigade there was poor management, mistakes during recruitment, imperfect training planning and a late response from the senior command to problems. Drapaty said the current focus is on staffing the brigade with experienced officers and commanders of all levels. He is also dealing with this issue.
The Ukrainian military hit the command post of the 8th Guards Combined Arms Army of the Russian Federation in the temporarily occupied territory of the Donetsk region, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported. It is indicated that the Russian aggressors used this building to coordinate attacks against the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the civilian population, especially the residents of Kurakhovo.
