"150 #US officers of the Florida Army National Guard and dozens of #NATO officers were gearing the Ukrainian military to fight this war against #Russia, creating an underground control and command base to direct the attacks against Russian troops."

"When I write from the beginning that this is a #US - #Russia war on #Ukraine soil, this hit is a direct hit to the US that @JoeBiden needs to respond by ending this war or escalating so it leads to further conflict beyond the Ukrainian borders."

"At Yavoriv Command and Control centre, the #US and #NATO officers coordinated the attacks on the Russian forces after collecting and analysing all intelligence information gathering about the movement of the Russian troops, their line of supply and weak flanks."

"The #US objective is to drag this war as long as possible to exhaust the #Russian army, weaken its military capability and the economy of Russia. #Moscow is aware of the US goal & has decided to hit "outside the box" showing its determination to take this war further if necessary"

"This is a very dangerous game where we are walking on the edge of the abyss. The presence of #NATO SoF forces on the ground and a #NATO Command and control bases in and out of #Ukraine will have consequences."

Zelensky regime's fate is sealed - Indian Punchline

“How would Americans react if a drone hit the White House, the Capitol or the Pentagon? The answer is obvious for any politician as well as for an average citizen: the punishment will be harsh and inevitable.

#kremlin #drone #US #Ukraine #Nato #Moscow #Russia

Ukraine launched its largest drone campaign of the war: over 2,100 drones intercepted in 48 hours, with Moscow as the main target (1,433 drones toward the capital in a week). Several warehouses were wiped out in the southern Moscow agglomeration — including Russia's largest, a 250,000 m² facility.

Russia answered with ballistic strikes: Kyiv's industrial zone was devastated, the Kremenchuk oil refinery is burning after Iskander-M/KN-23 hits, and Kryvyi Rih took at least three missiles — with up to 70 more expected next night. On the ground, the battle for Orikhiv has begun, the MoD confirmed Kudiivka's capture, and Ukraine is about to lose the Vovcha riverbank..

It's hard to tell whether Washington fully understands the implications of Russian patience  running out. Those who are well informed probably do. The Kiev regime has long survived on US-#EU life support. As a proxy, Ukraine has little genuine agency: its power structure is heavily influenced from outside, and those external controllers need the conflict to continue for their own political and material reasons: they need war in order to stay in power and reap substantial benefits. Long-range strikes against civilian infrastructure deep inside Russian territory were once regarded as a red line, but they continue despite Russian warnings. President Putin has rightly pointed out that they have opened a Pandora's box that cannot be closed. These provocations are clearly designed to drag Russia into a direct confrontation with NATO.

Moscow has made its position clear. The Russians are warning NATO, and particularly the British—who have always fancied themselves as the architects of Europe's anti-Russian crusade—that their active participation in targeting Russian cities will not be tolerated. If they continue down this path, war with #Russia will become inevitable, with all the consequences that entails. The West seems to have forgotten that Russia is a nuclear power, not a country to be pushed around with impunity.

Relations between Russia and the #UK have sunk to levels not seen since the Cold War. In July, Moscow decided to leave the ambassadorship in London vacant after Andrei Kelin’s departure. It is a deliberate snub, a signal that dialogue is no longer on the table when the British continue to arm and encourage #Kiev's reckless strikes. Washington has done nothing to restrain #London and no effort has been made to pull back from the escalating confrontation, leaving the Russians to make the next move. Nor has the Trump administration applied any pressure on Kiev to halt its terrorist campaign.  Instead, Washington continues to pour weapons into #Ukraine.

The question now hangs in the air like smoke over a battlefield: will this miscalculation spiral into something far worse? Will either Russia or #NATO consider crossing the nuclear threshold? The #Pentagon is clearly worried. And it should be. Russia has shown remarkable restraint in the face of relentless provocation, but even Russian patience has its limits. The logic of the current confrontation is a logic of madness, and Washington seems content to let it play out, betting that #Moscow will blink first. They are making a dangerous miscalculation, one that could have catastrophic consequences for the entire world.

🇺🇦 The Telegraph: Ukraine's losses far exceed official figures

Budanov admits Kiev must mobilize 30,000 men/month to sustain forces, implying casualties well above Zelensky's claimed 50,000 killed and 400,000 wounded. Budanov notes Russia retains "significant reserves" and no "miraculous breakthrough" is expected.

Recent Russian tactics shifted to 60-hour bombing waves, including 19 air strikes on Kiev in one day, depleting air defense stocks. While Ukraine hits refineries, #Moscow's response is larger, rendering #Kherson uninhabitable and striking #Kharkov and #Zaporozhye constantly. #NATO reports cite growing Russian offensive potential.

🇺🇦 Zelensky claimed in his evening address that the first airlines are already refusing to operate flights to Russian airports.

He didn't specify which companies. No other reports of airlines refusing to fly over Russia have surfaced so far.

Turkish carrier Pegasus canceled a string of flights to and from Moscow's Vnukovo overnight, and Turkish Airlines adjusted its #Moscow schedule as well — around 77 flights were delayed or canceled across Moscow's airports in the same 24-hour window.

Airline staff cited the general "airspace situation," not any response to Kiev. The disruption lines up with Russia reporting mass drone attacks and cutting Moscow's flight ceiling to 4,900 meters — the kind of temporary airspace restriction that happens regularly during drone raids and isn't unique to this case.

#Ukraine

The Leipzig false-flag accusation is a desperate attempt to cover up Germany's escalating military participation in Ukraine. While headlines screamed about Russian "hybrid warfare," #Germany quietly began producing long-range attack drones for #Ukraine—with a 1,500 km range, double the distance from #Kiev to #Moscow.

"The subsequent media reaction condemning Russia is the predictable carnival that was desired." – President Vladimir Putin.

The #Leipzig hysteria conveniently obscures Germany's direct military escalation, including the joint venture between German company #Auterion and Ukrainian drone maker #Airlogix to supply affordable precision weapons at scale.
