All right, Alexander, let's do an update on what is going on in Ukraine.

What is the situation on the front lines, Alexander?

Well, March, I think, was one of the cruelest months for Ukraine in the war so far.

From what I can tell, casualty rates were the worst they've been

since pretty much the start of the war, at least if you believe the Russian Defence Ministry,

which I'd rather do. There's been a massive series of missile strikes. Now, these have been

going on night after night after night.

They've been striking at all kinds of centres across Ukraine, decision-making centers,

the headquarters of the, you know, positions of the SBU, the Internal Intelligence Agency.

They've also attacked anchkers like the one,

there was one in Charsakia. Many people think that a Polish general who's recently,

whose death has recently been confirmed, was killed in that strike, and that's possible.

We had, if you remember, strikes on buildings in Odessa, but also now we have

a systematic and relentless campaign by the Russians against the Ukrainian energy system. And this is on a

qualitatively, completely different level from what we saw a year ago in 2022,

2023, when the Russians were attacking the distribution system. Now they're actually going for

power stations and they're causing enormous devastating damage. We've seen the Russians now

bringing out more and more new types of missiles,

and this is a big story in itself, because the Tzircon hypersonic cruise missile has now joined

the various strikes against Ukraine.

And this is a weapon system against which no one in the world has any counter.

And it's proving to be devastatingly effective from what we can see.
