The Ukrainian general staff has confirmed that the Astrakhan gas processing station was struck last night. Locals reported of explosions and unusual fires have been seen on videos. NASA FIRMS map detected a large heat source after the strikes. Damage assessment is underway.
Aside from processing gas, the station feeds from the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC), connecting natural gas transports from Tengiz, Kazakhstan, to Novorossiysk. UA forces struck facilities of that pipeline in the past.

"A sustainable peace in Europe is only possible with a sovereign Ukraine that can defend itself against Russian attacks. We are expanding the cooperation between German and Ukrainian companies. Only by demonstrating strength can we end this senseless war."

L'immagine mostra due personaggi dei cartoni animati, Batman e Robin, in uno sfondo urbano notturno. Batman e Robin sono uno accanto all'altro, che guardano in direzioni leggermente diverse.
Batman è più alto, con una maschera e un mantello nero. Robin è più basso, con una maschera nera, una tunica rossa e un mantello giallo.
Sopra i loro volti c'è del testo con un box, che recita: "BATMAN, THE BATMOBILE WON'T START" e "CHECK THE BATTERY".
Sotto i personaggi c'è un altro testo con un box, che recita: "WHAT'S A TERY?".
C'è un logo in piccolo nell'angolo in basso a destra con le lettere "SR".

As Eric Berger reports, now that Republicans have decided to kill healthcare coverage for the least affluent among us, the average amount Americans enrolled in ACA can expect to pay annually for premiums is estimated to rise from $888 this year to $1,904 in 2026.
This will affect all of us, not just the poorest among us, those covered by ACA.

Obamacare expiration will have ‘death spiral’ effect on US healthcare – experts
End of subsidies after failed legislation will have serious and damaging impact on entire sector, policy experts sayEric Berger (The Guardian)
This will affect all of us, not just the poorest among us, those covered by ACA. It will have knock-on effects across the healthcare sector as many people opt out of coverage altogether.
Whether you get medical treatment already depends in the US — as opposed to all other developed nations — on how much money you have.

This will only become more pronounced now. If you have money, you may get the treatment you need.
