Dnipro, 29 March, morning

The morning after the night before, a pretty intense night in Dnipro, drone attacks for several hours, one completely destroying Bartholomeo restaurant complex which was always a favourite of our family, we hold our kids birthday parties there, as well as go several times a month to have lunch or dinner and have an apartment in the residence complex.

18 months ago the yacht club was used by Nato forces as a base, and we complained vigorously to the senior management who we know, but our concern was not shared by them. So we stopped going there at all.

It is always full of mercenaries, all in uniform pretending to be big tough men.

I will never understand why anyone not at the front lines, or on duty is allowed to wear their uniform amongst civilians.

We spoke to our friend who is the manager and was on duty last night, and she said there were no casualties, 4 people were taken to hospital from smoke inhalation, but given restaurants close at 10 because of curfews, most families had left at 1052 when the first drone struck. Again a mercy by Putin I am sure.

Still a tragedy, but there will be many more given the genocidal march by Zelenksy and his western terrorist supporters. That includes Trump who has been silent all week whilst Zelenksy continued attacks on energy infrastructure, as well as on civilian hospitals, apartments and schools in Russia and the new regions. Trump is Zelenksys bitch it is plain to see.

I have no idea why President Putin has not now told the usa no more talks until all support for the terrorist Kiev cabal is stopped, and that includes intelligence and starlink.

Apart from that, spring continues to warm up here, it's been a lovely week, with 15-20 max's, still too cold for me, but idyllic for my partner who hates summer....

Plenty of military transport around, way more soldiers in town than usual, not sure why, plenty of foreigners. I am guessing they all are happy to be away from the frontlines, where they would have to actually fight.
