GOP for UKR

What Z-team doing?

For all of you absolute morons in the comments - Safe airspace resumption would strongly correlate with (and enable) conditions for free/fair national elections, because both depend on increased security, stability, and protection of infrastructure/civilians. So yes, the logic follows - if you can fly into a country, conditions exist to allow democracy to persist. But if airports do open and elections DON’T happen, well that will be a very strange thing indeed. So I am interested to see airport working groups progress, as the election working groups progress. Relatedly - elections happened during war in Ukraine already - the war began in 2014, not 2022.

NEW: Ukraine has been imposing increasing challenges on Russia at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels since the beginning of 2026. Other Key Takeaways: Recent Ukrainian advances in the Oleksandrivka direction and the continued success of Ukraine’s defensive lines in constraining Russian advances have forced the Russian military command into competing tactical and operational dilemmas on the battlefield. The competing dilemmas that Ukraine has imposed on the Russian military command have likely disrupted Russian preparations for their Spring-Summer 2026 offensive. The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) likely formalized some Russian Combat Army Reserve (BARS) elements. Tankers carrying Russian oil are reportedly sailing to Cuba in violation of the US embargo. Kremlin officials are reportedly considering military means to escort Russian ships. Russian federal censor Roskomnadzor is reportedly struggling to block all blacklisted resources on the Russian internet as Russian authorities are attempting to slowly throttle access to Telegram. The US decision to lift sanctions against Belarus will likely directly benefit Russia’s economy and therefore Russia’s war effort. A Russian Su-30 fighter jet briefly violated Estonian airspace on March 18. Ukrainian forces advanced in the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka tactical area and in the Pokrovsk and Oleksandrivka directions. Russian forces advanced in the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka tactical area and in the Hulyaipole direction. Russian forces launched 133 drones against Ukraine, including in Chernihiv, Volyn, Odesa, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia, and Lviv oblasts.

MORE: Ukrainian drone units have been increasingly prioritizing and executing successful strikes against Russian artillery, drone operators and logistics targets in the near rear to achieve tactical effects. ⬇️(1/2) Ukraine’s short-range strike campaign against the Russian tactical near rear is increasingly degrading both Russian offensive and defensive capabilities by enabling Ukrainian forces to make tactical gains and hindering Russia’s ability to conduct artillery preparation for the anticipated Spring-Summer 2026 offensive.
