Day 1,557.


Today, after a weekend that saw Russian ships hit by drones, hit
by drones and hit by drones again, it ended with another Russian
ship being seized by abseiling Frenchmen. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s
“logistics lockdown” continued, leading to fuel rationing in
Crimea and more Russian oil refineries self-sanctioning in very
dramatic ways; no wonder Putin’s Finance Minister has said
Russia’s spending on the war has gone two trillion rubles over
budget.
