Ukraine's Plan to Topple Putin - Jason Jay Smart



Russia is collapsing from the inside. Ukraine’s deep strikes are destroying the fuel, power, and command centers that once fed Putin’s war. Refineries are burning, depots are exploding, and pipelines across Russia’s heartland are falling silent. Each strike cuts energy to the front and exposes how fragile the Russian economy has become.

From Volgograd to Belgorod, explosions light up the night sky as Ukraine hits the targets that matter most. The Kremlin’s war machine is running out of power, and the panic among the elites is spreading. Putin’s energy empire is crumbling, and his generals are losing confidence. Even Moscow now faces the truth that Ukraine can reach anywhere inside Russia.

This is not random destruction. It is strategy. Ukraine is dismantling the infrastructure that keeps the Kremlin alive. Every destroyed refinery, every disabled radar, every drone strike weakens Russia’s ability to fight and to survive.
