nbcnews:

"Ukraine blows up Kursk bridges to disrupt Russian supply lines across Seim River."

#####

 The war continues.
Many years to go yet...unless Russia calls it off....the war it started.

SkyNews scroll thru the other day:

US-Russian ballerina sentenced to 12 years in prison for donating $51 to a charity supporting Ukraine."

Yes, doesn't pay to have a kind heart and compassion in Russia.

Amateur ballerina, Ksenia Karelina, dual citizenship, pleaded guilty, convicted of treason in a trial held behind closed doors.

Oh well, at least she wasn't sentenced to death.
12 years in a Russian prison, her life is basically over.
If only she'd based herself in the US.

At the very least, boost the export of Swiss Army knives.   You don't want soldiers along a frontline unable to open canned peaches or a bottle of wine.
