VICTORIES FOR UKRAINE

Time for some good news. Today 105 ships have now arrived at and departed from Odesa, carrying grain to the wider world. They sailed down the Ukrainian coast and through Romanian, Bulgarian and Turkish territorial waters.
Why is this such a great victory? For one Ukraine has no navy. None. Yet it has destroyed a Russian submarine, sunk a massive missile cruiser, several frigates, landing ships, recaptured gas rigs and driven the Russians out of the eastern Black Sea. They have crippled the air defences in Crimea and completely dominated the environment in that zone. And despite the Russian strikes on Odesa and its port it’s not stopped foreign ships and it hasn’t halted exports - vital income generating exports. However you look at it, it’s a huge strategic victory and a total failure for Russia.
And today, Ukraine announced it had landed on the south bank of the Dnepr. Officially admitting it has taken a foothold on the occupied Kherson side of the river totally undermined the declaration from the Governor of Kherson that they weren’t there and had been destroyed. That they are there is a victory.
Every day that Ukraine exists and every day it fights is another victory. Every dead Russian soldier, destroyed tank, drone, artillery, BMP and support vehicle is another victory.
Every act of resistance inside Russia - and there are many - is another victory.
The war is not won but it is far from lost. Everyone who keeps the Ukrainian banner flying in their mind and in their heart is another step towards the final victory.
It will come. And Russia’s fascist regime will meet its doom.

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦!
