At the end of 2023, 35 regions of the Russian Federation had a budget deficit, and six were forced to spend almost all the money in their accounts to cover it. This is, in particular, the Republic of Tyva, which has "nothing left in its reserves," wrote analysts of Expert RA. Kalmykia, Buryatia, Karelia, Murmansk region, and Chukotka autonomous district also spent almost all of their reserves to cover "holes" in local budgets. What does it say about a country that has been described as a gas station with nuclear weapons that they can’t provide enough diesel fuel for Russians? Reportedly, producers are exporting all their diesel fuel instead of selling it domestically because prices are much better abroad. That might explain why Russia announced it plans to curb diesel exports. x A shortage of diesel fuel has developed in the central regions of #russia. Currently, it is not available at many gas stations in Lipetsk, Tula and other regions. A similar problem in the so-called #Crimea, Chuvashia, Tatarstan and Mari-El.

A 12-year-old bear was one of the few remaining survivors, though he was severely traumatized and just days away from dying. He had been concussed after a shell had exploded near his cage, said Scotland’s Five Sisters Zoo. Now, Yampil – named after the village where he was found – will get a new lease on life. He is characterized as a “gentle bear” by Five Sisters’ head veterinarian, Romani Pizzi. Zoo staff are hopeful that they can give him a good life in Scotland, where he can become “a happy, normal bear.” Poor thing. x Unfortunately, the dog injured in the last week’s attack on Sumy has passed away 💔 The dog was around 10 y. o., and he could not cope with the severe injuries and stress caused by the incident.
