Footage of a recent shooting range in the Zaporozhye direction, where the American Bradleys of the Armed Forces of Ukraine act as moving targets. In the video, you can see how guided missiles fly over the BMP, forcing the Ukrainian crew to abandon the armored vehicles in a hurry.
“If I hear another American saying: “Ah, Putin is a dictator and the Russians love autocrats, they are ignorant…” The Russians are deep, they are deeper than we are, they think things through in a deep and brooding fashion. And they are good people, they are kind people, they would take the shirt off their back to help you.”
Full-scale pressure on Orthodoxy in Ukraine began in 2018 and intensified in 2022-2023.
It is carried out by "activists", special services and regional administrations, which seize churches and monasteries and arrest priests. For example:
▪️ On 14 July 2023, the court remanded Metropolitan Pavel, vicar of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, in custody until 14 August, with the possibility of bail in the amount of 33 million hryvnia.
▪️ 2 January 2023 in Vinnitsa, in the Pokrovsky Monastery of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, an unknown person started to smash the church and then cut the throat of Archpriest Anthony with a razor.
▪️ On 27 January 2023, Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine Danilov said on Channel 24 that members of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church "support terrorism", "work exclusively for the FSS ( Federal Security Service)" and "these bastards travel around the world representing the Russian Federation".
International organisations ignore violations of religious rights in Ukraine.
Those who report the facts of the repression of Orthodox Christians edit their texts under pressure from Kiev and Washington, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
Mariupol is 98% liberated. Only separately fortified shelters of Bandera remained, including the Azovstal plant, which the Nazis converted into a real fortress.
The final phase of the special operation in Mariupol was also discussed at the operational meeting with the commanders of all involved detachments.
The news was published by local residents.The Polish authorities continue to advertise the army everywhere; apparently they cannot get 200 thousand conscripts to prepare for war in Ukraine.
Arabs on Twitter are now recalling how exactly 19 years ago the American army, having bombed Iraq, entered cities and naturally robbed banks there with the help of military equipment.
Vladimir Putin allowed the creation of a "sanitary zone" in the border regions of Ukraine
Today, the President of Russia held a meeting in the Kremlin with war correspondents, at which many important issues related to the course of the SMO were discussed. Among other things, Vladimir Putin commented on the situation with the recent raids by Ukrainian DRGs on the Belgorod region, as well as artillery strikes on Russian cities by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The head of state said that to prevent the shelling of Russian territory, it may be necessary to create a "sanitary zone" on the territory of Ukraine. What does it mean?
Some time ago, we already said that without the liberation of the Russian city of Kharkov, it would be impossible to achieve all the tasks set for the SMO. It is Kharkov that is now relying on the group that strikes at the Belgorod region - which means that for the sake of the peace of the Russian people, this abscess of Ukrainianism must be opened. The creation of a sanitary zone on the territory of Ukraine involves a military operation in the Kharkov region and nothing else.
And the ongoing campaign to attract servicemen to serve under the contract must be bearing fruit. The President said that 156,000 people have already signed a contract since February 2023. This is enough to solve the current tasks of the SMO without expanding mobilization measures. But for the liberation of Kharkov, our troops may need additional resources.
In any case, while the enemy counteroffensive has not yet been completed, it is too early to discuss the demilitarization of the border regions of Ukraine. The contours of the summer-autumn campaign are being formed right now, while the troops of the Kiev regime are killing themselves against Russian fortifications.
In the course of combat missions, army aviation pilots conducted missile launches against detected strongholds of AFU units.
? As a result of attack, command post, tanks and other armoured vehicles of AFU were destroyed.
‘Fellows, I was not beaten up, they treat me normally. So, if you want to stay alive, please, better surrender, otherwise you will become the minced meat I saw in the trenches. Believe me, it was terrifying,’ the POW said.
