Euan MacDonald @euanmacdonald.bsky.social · 3hAbsence of intelligence is not evidence of absence of intelligence sharing. Some types of ballistic missile (S-400 in ground attack mode) are just really hard to spot launching, and come at a high speed and low trajectory that gives little time for a warning. 2224

Euan MacDonald @euanmacdonald.bsky.social · 09/10/2026The attacks on Russia's refineries have actually more impacted Russia's gasoline supply - it produces far less gasoline compared to demand than diesel. Before Ukraine's attacks, Russia exported 100,000 to 110,000 tonnes per day of diesel, with domestic demand at ~120,000 to 123,000 tonnes per day 061
Euan MacDonald @euanmacdonald.bsky.social · 09/10/2026This is clearly just a ploy by Putin to get Trump to pressure Ukraine to stop its attacks on Russian refineries. It carries virtually no economic benefit to the US (& can Russia even produce the fuel, far less supply it?). Putin dangled the bait of diesel, and Trump swallowed. 1113052
Euan MacDonald @euanmacdonald.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Context: 300k tonnes of diesel = 93 million gallons. US uses 160 to 170 million gallons per day - so 300k tonnes would last 13-14 hours.
