⚡80% of Ukraine’s coal, gas power plants hit by Russian attacks - Minister

Russia has hit up to 80 percent of Ukraine’s conventional power plants and half its hydroelectric plants in recent weeks in the heaviest attacks since war began, Ukrainian energy minister German Galushchenko said Monday.

Moscow has launched almost daily strikes on Ukraine’s power grid since late March, causing major blackouts in the northeastern city of Kharkiv.

“Up to 80% of thermal generation was attacked. More than half of hydro generation and a large number of substations,” Galushchenko told journalists in Kyiv.

“This is the largest attack on Ukraine’s energy sector” since war began, the minister said.

⚡️The Moldovan Defense Ministry announced the participation of Moldovan contingent in the NATO Sea Shield 2024 naval exercise, which will be held in Romania from April 8 to 21.

The NATO Sea Shield exercise is an annual event. However, since last year, due to Russia's special military operation in Ukraine, the alliance has adjusted the location of the exercise due to the closure of the Bosporus Strait to other countries.

About 2,100 military personnel from Bulgaria, France, Georgia, Greece, Italy, Greece, the UK, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Turkey and the US are taking part in this year's exercise. By comparison, 3,400 military personnel were involved last year.

According to official data, 135 units of combat equipment will be involved in the exercise: 27 sea and river ships, 17 airplanes and 91 vehicles and watercraft.

⚡80 years ago, on April 8, 1944, the Soviet Crimean strategic offensive operation began.

The results of the operation were the complete defeat of the 17th Army of the Wehrmacht and the liberation of the Crimean Peninsula, including Sevastopol, the base of the Black Sea Fleet.

In 1941-1942 it took 250 days for the German troops to capture heroically defended Sevastopol, while in 1944 Soviet troops only needed 35 days to break through the powerful fortifications in Crimea and clear almost the entire peninsula of the 200,000 strong Nazi army.

First time of reading Saul being authorised by rome, care to shed more light on this?
i was actually wrong there... What i wanted to point out was (1) paul was a roman, [acts 16] (2) christains where actually persecuted the roman government im sure you must have heard of Emperor Nero... Although they where mob actions against christains but these where just minor things compared to what romans had in mind for christains. the romans executed Jesus and the apostles and feed other to lions... (3) the jews did not have the right to execute, prosecute or punish any fuvking body (although they could arrest christains: as vigilante) like i said earlier what they mainly did was amebo they arrest christains for rome. In rome religions where checked, religions where not allowed to kill anybody. Pauls works where more or less mob actions, the roman also didnt care much about it because the jews where their friends, and the victims where never roman citizens...

Russian bomb disposal units in the liberated city of Avdeyevka are using a light-wheeled UGV (unmanned ground vehicle) to clear mines and booby traps left behind by retreating Ukrainian troops. The vehicle, known as "Scorpio," helps reduce the risk for personnel dealing with these hazards.

The compact "Scorpio" weighs only 30 kilograms and can move at speeds of up to 5 kilometers per hour on dirt and 10 kilometers per hour on pavement. It is equipped with onboard cameras, including an infrared camera, which allow combat engineers to examine potentially dangerous objects from a safe distance. The vehicle's mine-clearing attachments enable it to sweep for booby traps and land mines effectively.

In addition, the "Scorpio" can transport up to 25 kilograms of explosives in a special cart. This feature allows for controlled explosions without the need to send personnel in to set up charges, further minimizing the risk to individuals on the ground.
