From Maia Mikhaluk in Kyiv (460th day):
Last night was noisy again in many regions of Ukraine and in Kyiv. 40 missiles and drones were shot by air defense over Kyiv. During the night, our air defense destroyed 37 missiles (out of 40) and 29 drones (out of 35).
The possibility of another massive missile strike during the day is estimated to be high. There are 3 missile carriers in the Black Sea with potentially 20 missiles.
Doesn’t it remind you of the behavior of a psychopathic abuser going berserk out of a sense of utter powerlessness?
UPDATE: 11:20am Kyiv is under missile attack again. Multiple explosions are audible. It’s been a while since we have been attacked during the day light. The whole month of May it has been in the darkness of the night or early morning.
Update 2: in the afternoon 11 ballistic missiles attacked Kyiv. All were shot by our air defense but debris caused damage.

J.R.R. Tolkien writing to his son during WWII:
“The utter stupid waste of war, not only material but moral and spiritual, is so staggering to those who have to endure it..
..I sometimes feel appalled at the thought of the sum total of human misery all over the world at the present moment: the millions parted, fretting, wasting in unprofitable days — quite apart from torture, pain, death, bereavement, injustice…
All we do know, and that to a large extend by direct experience, is that evil labours with vast power and perpetual success –in vain: preparing always only the soil for unexpected good to sprout in…
And though we need all our natural human courage and guts (the vast sum of human courage and endurance is stupendous, isn’t it?) and all our religious faith to face the evil that may befall us (as it befalls others, if God wills) still we may pray and hope. I do.”
