Hi All, Just released my latest free weekend update. No. 158--which amazingly enough comes out almost exactly three years after the first one. Its been quite a trip.
Today, the focus is on blackouts. Darkness is coming early to both Russia and Ukraine this winter. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

Former NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg writes in his memoirs he refused President Zelensky's February 2022 request for a no-fly zone over Ukraine because NATO would have had to strike Russian air defenses in Belarus and Russia, risking direct war. He called ending that phone call painful.

Hello again. I am refreshed😊

It feels like days since my last post, in reality it was just 8 hours ago. That's when there was a lively end to the previous day's thread.

Without further ado, here is the Ukraine🧵on Day 1355 of the defence of democracy against fascism + Nazism.

There was a moment when we had to stop and wait for the drone to fly overhead. I was in protective gear, and for me it only lasted a few days. And these families live with this every day."

#Kyiv tonight. Blackouts in most districts, the city is in darkness from the Russian strikes.

Emergency and planned power outages have been introduced. Many shops, pharmacies, institutions work from generators and other alternative energy sources

Day 1354 started with another devastating combined multi-missile and drone attack on Ukraine, which I was up reporting on until just a few hours ago.

Why? Because Putin is a war criminal now fearing for his life, and because the west is too weak collectively.

Check out the latest Russia Contingency. I join the head of Lasar’s Group, one of Ukraine’s best and lesser known drone units to talk about their experience, how drone use is evolving, adaptation on both sides, and what the future holds.

Ukrainian drones can now penetrate a meter of concrete with warheads under 100 kg. 95% of deep strikes already use Ukrainian tech. But they need more.

The US could fund Ukraine's production instead of endlessly debating Tomahawks — and get better results.

Tomahawks would be nice — funding Ukraine’s production could be even better
Even if the US won't send Tomahawks, allies can still help Ukraine run an effective deep strike campaign

This video beautifully demonstrates the defense of our Ukrainian lands against russian troops. Who would have thought that simple nets (such as fishing nets) brought to my country from all over the world would be saving lives in Ukraine?!

Welcome to November, which becomes the 46th different month to see fighting in Ukraine

And yet Russia is nowhere near its aim of Kyiv in 3 days.
Indeed 1,344 days behind schedule as we start today's thread on Day 1347 of the full invasion

Please think about sending a KoFi💙💛

personally I just think it’s funny how I was raised conditioned to think Ukraine is inferior to many western countries who are now flattering monsters while using Ukraine as a shield that happens to have a beating heart. Turns out the disillusionment hits both ways
