  • Russia never wanted to gain territory. The aim was the de-militarisation of Ukraine and for NATO to stop expanding to Russia’s borders. Seems like they are successfully achieving this and more besides

Ukrainian Intelligence Hacks Russian Servers

 

Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, known as HUR, has successfully breached servers used by Russia’s occupation authorities in Crimea and uncovered disturbing evidence of the mass abduction of Ukrainian children.

 

Files obtained from the hack detail the organized deportation of Ukrainian children from territories under Russian control, including Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk, and Luhansk.

The documents confirm long-held suspicions of a widespread and coordinated campaign.

 

Among the thousands of retrieved files were personal profiles of abducted children, falsified guardianship paperwork assigning Russian citizens as caretakers, and relocation addresses—all pointing to illegal efforts to erase the children’s Ukrainian identities.

Russia launches more than 10,000 chemical attacks on Ukrainian troops: Evidence sent to The Hague

 

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has documented over 10,000 instances of chemical weapons use by Russian forces against Ukrainian troops since the start of the full-scale invasion, the press service of SBU reports.

 

According to the investigation, Russian units systematically use aerosol grenades containing toxic agents such as CS and CN, as well as ampoules with chloropicrin.

 

The main goal is to flush Ukrainian soldiers out of their positions and expose them to enemy fire.

Ukrainian Justice Minister Herman Halushchenko visited a correctional facility in Bilenke, Zaporizhzhia region, where a Russian airstrike with glide bombs (KABs) killed 16 people. The inmates were evacuated from the site immediately after the attack, according to the website of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine.

 

"Together with Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration head Ivan Fedorov, the minister held a meeting with the management of the correctional facility, during which they discussed the response procedure during attacks, evacuation of inmates, provision of medical aid to the wounded, the extent of destruction, and further steps for restoring the facility," the statement said.

 

Halushchenko inspected the aftermath of the Russian strike and confirmed it was a deliberate terrorist act by Russia. Ukraine has already appealed to international institutions, demanding that this act of terror be documented.

Russian Soldiers Are Being Robbed After Enlisti

 

Take 39-year-old welder Nikita Hursa from Rostov region. He admits he didn’t join the war for patriotism, he joined for the money. The Kremlin dangled life-changing pay: up to 5.2 million rubles a year, around six times the Russian average salary.

 

Hursa was wounded in mid-2024 and returned home after only a few months. On his way to Rostov, Hursa was stopped by police. One officer hesitated, recognising him as a front-line soldier. The other didn’t. They seized almost everything, 2.66 million rubles (about £24,000). Gratitude for service was nowhere in sight.

 

Hursa’s story is not unique. In Moscow’s airports, police tip off taxi drivers about incoming soldiers.

These drivers offer a “normal” fare but charge up to 15 times more at the end of the ride. Refuse to pay and the soldiers risk being drugged, threatened, or drained of their bank accounts.

Rotting equipment and fleeing staff: Partisans expose state of Russian military hospital in Crimea (photos)

 

Partisans have scouted the territory of a Russian military unit in Sevastopol. A special forces medical detachment is stationed there, which is currently experiencing a personnel crisis, the partisan movement Atesh reports.

 

"As of now, the unit is in decline - the territory is neglected, and the equipment is rotting under the sun. Security measures have completely failed - a daily guard unit is present on-site, but they mostly sleep or start drinking closer to the evening," Atesh claims.

 

According to the partisans, the Russian command likely lacks the resources to supply and staff the unit. Because of this, it is expected to be disbanded in the near future.

Russia economy is on the brink of colappse, no money to pay the soldiers, the supermarket shelves are empty, sure the funding of any hospital it's the last of Putin's worries, he keeps sending the North Koreans to the front as the Russians refuse to go and now that USA put tariffs into Modi, thus India will not be able to buy that much oil and same will apply to China, thus Putin's war funding  is downhill

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A powerful U.S. Senate committee approved a military spending bill on Thursday that includes about $1 billion to support Ukraine, despite President Donald Trump's administration having asked Congress to eliminate such funding in its budget request.

 

The Senate Appropriations Committee approved $852 billion for the Department of Defense in the fiscal year ending on Sept. 30, 2026, which is $21.7 billion, or 2.6%, more than the Republican president requested earlier this year.

 

The committee voted 26-3 to send the spending measure for a vote in the full Senate, with strong support from both Democrats and Trump's fellow Republicans.

The long-range drones of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) attacked the military radio plant in Russia's Penza. At least 11 explosions were recorded during the strike, followed by a large-scale fire, a source within the SBU reports.

According to the source, preliminary data indicate that the new production complex of the plant and storage facilities containing components were hit.

 

The military radio plant in Penza is part of the Rostec corporation and manufactures automated battle management systems for various branches of the Russian armed forces: air defense, artillery, as well as mobile command posts based on armored vehicles and modern communication systems.

 

"The SBU is systematically reducing Russia's ability to manufacture products for its army. The summer season of targeting high-tech enterprises within Russia's defense industry is in full swing," the informed source within the SBU said.

On July 29th, Ukrainian intelligence revealed that a special forces reconnaissance force landed on Tendrivska Spit in the Russian-occupied territory of Kherson to take out two key targets. 

 

Special forces operators from the DIU’s ‘Active Operations Department’ travelled across the Northern Black Sea, landed on the Tendrivska Spit, and knocked out a ‘Rosa’ radar station as well as a ‘Zont’ electronic warfare complex.

 

A video of the raid was published online by the DIU and showed special forces soldiers crossing the Black Sea in boats to reach the Tendrivska Spit, which is located roughly 30 kilometers (about 18.5 miles) from the coast of Mykolaiv Oblast.

F-16s survive Russian missiles thanks to this clever Ukrainian tactic

 

Ukrainian military airfields have become a primary target during Russian airstrikes. However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have adopted unique strategies that have allowed them to avoid losing a single fighter jet during such attacks, according to Business Insider.

 

The outlet notes that dispersal and mobility have become critically important for Ukraine’s Air Force. However, since Ukraine has been unable to build sufficient supporting infrastructure, the military relies on alternative solutions.

 

In particular, the destruction of fighter jets has been prevented through dispersal. US General James Hecker believes Ukraine has lost relatively few aircraft on the ground because they very rarely take off and land at the same airfield.

This is due to the fact that when servicing F-16s, Ukraine relies on mobile units mounted on trucks, which have replaced traditional fixed bases.

 

F-16s survive Russian missiles thanks to this clever Ukrainian tactic

 

 

This 47 minute discussion with Professor Diesen was concentrated on the two interrelated issues in the headline.


Europe is doomed because 25 of the 27 heads of government of the European Member States presently have no interest in the prosperity and wellbeing of their citizens and are interested only in holding on to power, for which purpose maintaining support for Ukraine in its war with Russia and rearming Europe in preparation for a NATO-Russia war in 2029 are their top priority. Europe’s capitulation to Trump over tariffs may be explained by the hope it would keep Trump on side over further aid to Ukraine.  This, of course, is utterly delusional, since Trump has clearly shown he wants the USA to exit that war as soon as possible without any regard for Europe’s wishes.


Regime change in Kiev is coming soon. Thanks to the scandal over a new law that stripped the anti-corruption agencies in Ukraine of their independence, Zelensky lost credibility both in the USA and in Europe. Major media now speak of him as authoritarian, meaning anti-democratic. The wave of protests in Kiev and other major Ukrainian cities was unprecedented in the three years of war and suggests to me the active intervention of one or another Western power to bring down Zelensky and achieve regime change.  The question of the day: was it the Brits, who surely would like to install as president General Zaluzhny, former commander in chief of the Ukrainian armed forces, who has been serving as Ukrainian ambassador to the UK these past 18 months.  Zaluzhny as president would mean continuation of the war under the direction of someone who actually understands military strategy as opposed to the PR driven direction of the armed forces from Zelensky.  For their part, the Americans surely would favor as successor Zelensky Umerov, the current head of the Ukrainian negotiating team in talks with the Russians in Istanbul.  Umerov is a civilian who made a fortune in high tech commerce and who has a clear connection to the USA going back to his secondary school year spent in America.  Umerov, we may assume, could negotiate a peace with the Russians if he were his own man, not a subordinate to Zelensky as he is presently.

Yes, very sad indeed.

 

It reminds me of the US war in Iraq with so much "collateral damage".

Hundreds of drones are sent over Ukraine to strike military targets almost every day, yet this receives little to no media coverage. However, when one of these drones mistakenly hits a civilian building—either by accident or due to anti-drone teams—it makes the news: "Russians are targeting civilians!"

Could you please explain what exactly is the misinformation? Is it that there are no almost daily Shahed/Lancet attacks, or is it that they are targeting civilians and causing similar casualties every day?

100 percent.

Anyone who denies that is either a useful idiot of Putin or spreading intentional misinformation. 

 

It should be noted that the Ryazan refinery is one of the largest in Russia. In 2024, the refinery processed approximately 13.1 million tons of oil (~262,000 barrels per day), which is about 5% of the country’s total oil refining

Are you proud of the Russians who are targeting civilians?

Instead of repeating this media mantra, can you implement a simple logic using the following two facts?
 1) This tragedy, with so many civilian deaths, is the biggest in the last year.

https://edition.cnn.com/2025/06/17/europe/kyiv-deadly-strikes-trump-g7-intl-hnk

2) In just one month, Russians launched 6,400 missiles and drones and continue to do so

https://abcnews.go.com/International/russia-launches-6400-drones-missiles-ukraine-record-breaking/story?id=124201916


Where do these thousands of strikes target if a tragedy like this happens only once a year, despite thousands of drones/missiles being sent?
