🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia wrapped a wartime Duma vote under a 1,000 drone Ukrainian strike and still treated the result as already decided.

The ballot was built to freeze the war inside Russian law and to stamp occupied Ukrainian land as if the annexation were settled.

United Russia keeps the 450 seat house.

Yabloko, the only registered party that called for an end to the fighting, lost its national list last month.

Crimea and the 4 claimed Ukrainian regions still got polling stations, which Kyiv and the EU called illegal.

Overnight, Russia’s Defense Ministry said it downed 1,110 drones, hundreds of them aimed at Moscow, and local officials reported 2 dead in the capital region.

Putin walks away with a legislature that will not fight him as strikes and fuel shortages keep reaching Russian cities.

Ukraine showed again that the rear is in range.

Europe gets another result it will refuse to recognize.
