Russian forces, attempting to cross the Donets River, are repelled by Ukrainian military.

Russian forces, seeking to cross the Donets River, soon found the attempt blocked by the Ukrainian military. The attempt, in Luhansk Oblast, was made near Sievierodonetsk.

The UK’s Ministry of defence, as part of a multi-tweet thread, tweeted “Ukrainian forces successfully prevented an attempted Russian river crossing in the Donbas.”

Russian forces, according to recent reports are down one battalion tactical group. The pontoon bridge erected by the Russians was quickly destroyed. The invasion, despite President Vladimir Putin having held a Victory Day celebration, isn’t going Russia’s way.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Russia’s Air Force targets Kremenchuk with multiple missile strikes. Four missiles were launched at Poltava Oblast’s Kremenchuk Oil Refinery.

“Eight to 12 Russian missiles have hit the city of Kremenchuk, the oil refinery and other infrastructure facilities,” Dmytro Lunin, the head of the Poltava Regional Military Administration, wrote in a telegram post.

Lunin’s figures include the four Russian missiles that hit the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery. Curiously, on Saturday, 2 April 2022, Lunin referenced the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery having been destroyed by Russian missile strikes.

The Russian official possesses a few memory issues. Lying, coupled with a bad memory for previously made statements, doesn’t work. A good memory for what was said is required.

Russia, in a childish retaliatory move, will suspend electricity supplies to Finland. It’s not difficult figuring out Russia’s motivation.

It stems from Finland’s president and prime minister announcing an intent to join NATO. Electricity supplies will be cut off Saturday, 14 May 2022.

“We are forced to suspend the electricity import starting from May 14,” said RAO Nordic.

RAO Nordic, a subsidiary of Russian state energy holding Inter RAO, sells its electricity on the Nordic market. Blame for the suspension, despite the curious timing, was placed firmly on not having received payment for electricity sold in May. Finland is curiously unable to pay for more electricity from Russia.

Timo Kaukonen, Fingrid’s manager for operational planning, believes the Finnish electricity network operator can function without Russian electricity.

“We’re prepared for [Russia’s childish behaviour] and it won’t be difficult,” Kaukonen said, “We can make do with a bit more imports from Sweden and Norway.”

Kremlin officials, not pleased with recent NATO talk, have warned Russia will “definitely” consider Finland’s NATO membership a significant threat. The Russian foreign ministry suggested Moscow will be “forced to take reciprocal steps, military-technical and other, to address the resulting threats”.
