True, the last year has demonstrated beyond any doubt that you cannot be trade superpower if you are dependent on a competing trade power for defence and security.

Those using the excavators and crane, those who build and hold the defences of Ukraine are the real heroes.

I can't imagine what they're going through, we cannot fail them.

Here's one of several from different angles.

Ukrainian forces struck a Russian air defense unit in Novorossiysk overnight, hitting two S-400 battalions and one Pantsir-S1 system.

It looks like several (six?) unerected launchers were parked on the far right on 11/11 and have been moved.

The three remaining erected launchers on the right may well be damaged, not much use w/o radar.

From the size of the explosions I wonder if they were storing reloads next to the launchers.

Good, the oil exports that fund Russia's aggression against Ukraine must be choked off.

You can also help defend democracy by contributing to this fundraiser for vital engineering equipment for Ukraine's defenders.

Donated. Excavators and cranes are an example of "non-lethal" support that can make a huge difference to Ukrainian defenders on the battlefield. Thanks for your hard work getting these to Ukraine.
