The best way to end the war sooner
If we want to stop Russia we must stop the money.
Refineries are the economic engine of the Kremlin war machine.
Helping Ukraine scale up its deep strike capabilities to hit these facilities is the most effective way to drain Putin's budget

Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine. It is a systematic reality of abducted children and erased cities.
Look at what you and your government are doing to stop it. No one is doing enough.
Ignoring a genocide doesn't stop it. It only guarantees that it continues
