1. It will take between 52 weeks or 12 months, more or less.

2. More! More! Slava Ukraini

3. Glory be! All power to Ukraine and her people!

4. If Russia says it takes months, it takes years. This facility was built by Germany with Western tech. Very hard to replace e.g. a Siemens controller computer.

5. Hit em again

6. Time to double tap!

7. Best news all day. I hope news like this becomes a daily affair.

8. To paraphrase the article . That’s how you “sanction” the Russian oil industry.

9. Eat shit bums! This is just a small payback for what you’ve done in Ukraine.

10. Oh dear, how sad, never mind. -head tilt-

11. Let them work on it for a couple months and then hit it again.

12. For reference, the target is near the Estonian border on the Gulf of Finland. The amount of Russian territory this drone has to cross unstopped is crazy.

13. Is this why Russia is freezing?

14. They will not even be able to really start figuring out what is damaged until they can melt all that ice. Fire damage covered in ice and water/ice penetrating things that it should not as well as parts that have had thermal shocks and sanctioned parts not available for replacement.

15. Months. The thing is, that the whole facility needs to be gone over, section by section. Their not designed to just shut off or abruptly stopped dead.

    That alone is a big job. Plus drones..
