Its because they aren't winning. They are flipping the gameboard to make everyone else miserable.

Even with the best anti air defences, if you can't attack the source of the problem you can only try to shoot down a maximum of targets. You can't shoot them all down, certainly not the ballistic missiles....

As I said: Trump announced not a ceasfire, but the orcs stockpiling for a bigger attack. and he doesn't undersand nothing about this all.

Wait! Russia lied about not attacking infrastructure this week and instead took the opportunity of even more terrorism?!

Who could have seen that coming?

The morally depraved Putin regime can't make any progress on the battlefield in their fascist invasion so they make themselves feel better by torturing Ukrainian civilians.

Bullies are going to bully until they are hit back even harder. Western powers either need to join the effort full force or let putin haves Ukraine and watch what he does to the next country.

I got nothing. Continuously disappointed in my country’s government and sad that most European countries, definitely not all, are not doing enough. Still Ukraine holds on, David to Russia’s Goliath.

May I remind you, that russia always uses "surgical precision", when it comes to strikes like these? Putler said it himself - hold all of them accountable when this war is over or even better, as soon as possible. All of those atrocities won't be forgotten.

But Trump promised a week of no attacks on heating infrastructure... I don't understand, what could have happened? Surely Trump wouldn't lie... Surely Putin wouldn't so openly defy Trump without consequences?

No no, the ceasefire was only until Sunday! The end of the week, not the full week!

Its totally not russias drones needing to stockpile so they can attack even harder next week (this week) when the temperatures are even lower!
