💥 📰 An explosion occurred early this morning, August 18, 2026, at the Stora Enso Kaukopää pulp and board mill in Imatra, southeastern Finland, located near the Russian border.The blast happened around 2:00 AM inside an open tank farm. A sharp rise in pressure caused a storage tank containing tall oil (a chemical wood pulp byproduct) to rupture and catch fire. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. However, the rupture caused 50 cubic meters of tall oil to spill across the factory grounds, with some of the chemical leaking into nearby Lake Saimaa via stormwater drains.

"As far as Kramik [Kramatorsk] is concerned, I'm not going to waste words on it. I've decided not to talk about it at all, so I'll just show you a video from someone who's been there instead. Unfortunately, these past few years have been like "Groundhog Day" for me ."

You may remember that I made a post back in June comparing the interception rate of Ukrainian drones attacking Moscow.
In October 2025, 150 out of 150 drones were shot down. In June 2026, at least 8 out of 300+ drones impacted the Moscow Oil Refinery. At the time, I explained that this was due to Ukraine's drone warfare capabilities have improved significantly, rather than Russian air defence capabilities decreasing. I even argued that Russian air defence was becoming more effective.
And it appears that time proved me right, with tonight's attack resulting in 100% of the 500+ drones flying towards Moscow being shot down - the most impressive interception rate yet considering how many drones were launched in such a short period of time.
While I still hold that Ukrainian drone capabilities are at their best yet, Russian air defence continues to improve, outpacing Ukraine's drone capabilities. Russia produces massive amounts of interceptor missiles of various types (Pantsir, Tor, S-300, etc), and does this entirely domestically. They also are implementing large numbers of interceptor drones, which continue to increase every day. Furthermore, Russia has significantly stepped up their usage of mobile fire groups, which are a more cost-effective solution, and often more effective in general when dealing with very low-flying drones.

During today's massive drone attack on Moscow, Ukraine launched over 500 long-range drones of various types. One of the targets was the Moscow Oil Refinery.
Of these 500+ drones, not a single one impacted. Every single drone was intercepted by the first, second, and third rings of air defence around Moscow, as well as by mobile fire groups along the way through Ryazan, Tula, Kursk, Kaluga, Oryol, and Smolensk Oblasts. Several small fires broke out in various parts of Moscow Oblast due to falling debris.
Over 500 drones that could be used to attack valuable Russian targets closer to the border with much higher damage were wasted in a futile attack on Moscow. And unlike Ukraine, Russia doesn't appear to be anywhere near running out of interceptor missile stockpiles, and has sufficient mobile fire groups and interceptor drones to intercept drones along the way.

Only fields now separate the settlements of Krasnopolye and Dobropolye, a major AFU defense hub located just 3 km away. The "polye" in both place names means "field".

🇺🇦 UNCONFIRMED: Reports are circulating on Russian and Ukrainian channels about the possible death of Andrey Biletsky, founder of the neo-Nazi Azov movement and commander of Ukraine's 3rd Army Corps — Azov's successor formation following its Western-friendly rebranding.
The reports stem from unverified accounts that officials and military personnel were seen bringing funeral wreaths to his parents' house in Kharkov, with the area reportedly cordoned off for several hours. Neither the Ukrainian nor Russian side has issued an official confirmation or denial.
Unconfirmed reports have also circulated of tension between Biletsky and Zelensky's office over demands that his unit help suppress protests tied to Fedorov's dismissal as defense minister.

Ukrainian mobilization officer caught on camera heroically attacking a child in Odessa. The boy's very brave, he is much more of a man than the press ganger. Ukrainian media is running damage control, accusing him of throwing stones at a conscription van earlier.
The Hero City of Odessa will find a use for many of its lampposts after liberation.
