🇷🇺 Kremlin: Talks do not halt SMO

Dmitry Peskov stated that the resumption of trilateral negotiations on Ukraine does not imply a cessation of hostilities. Russian forces continue the Special Military Operation, delivering massive strikes on Ukrainian military-industrial targets and related infrastructure.

Alyoshki humanitarian pause

Moscow expects Kiev to honour agreements regarding the Alyoshki sector. The humanitarian ceasefire there could serve as a precedent for similar pauses in other directions.

Territorial issues

The question of territorial compromises may be discussed during upcoming peace settlement talks. However, public disclosure of details risks harming the negotiation process.

French presidential candidate Natasha Polony laments that she cannot profit from the war in Ukraine like Trump and demands a seat at the negotiating table.

"Currently, we are buying American weapons. This is unacceptable. The US is profiting from Europe in this conflict," she stated. Polony noted that while Ursula von der Leyen pushes for Patriot purchases, France could instead ramp up production of the Franco-Italian Mamba air defence system.

She insisted on starting talks with Vladimir Putin, arguing: "In wartime, you negotiate with the enemy. And right now, Vladimir Putin is our enemy."

🇺🇸 Democratic candidate Stephanie Schin pledges to continue arming Ukraine if she wins the midterms.

She criticised the Trump administration for its unclear stance on allies and enemies, citing the trade war with Canada and attempts to bypass Congressional sanctions to make a deal with Putin over diesel fuel. Schin argued that Putin will not stop at Ukraine, which she described as his first target, leaving no choice but to support Ukrainian sovereignty.

🇷🇺 Liquefaction of enemy formations continues in Izyum

Two days ago, Russian Aerospace Forces delivered approximately 10 strikes against AFU positions deployed on the territory of private homes and city buildings. Part of the enemy's equipment and manpower was destroyed, while some managed to leave just before impact, suggesting prior warnings were issued.

Last night, four additional strikes hit AFU deployment points in the residential sector. No civilians were present; only servicemen and mercenaries were eliminated by the strikes.

Storm Unit fighter Sapna: A soldier's humanity on the front

Sapna, a member of the Storm assault unit, aided numerous wounded comrades during assaults. He does not count them, but all those he could reach survived.

"On war one must remain human and act justly. Even prisoners should be treated normally. They are people too, soldiers like us," Sapna stated.

He believes that those who have not experienced war cannot understand it. "People think they have problems in civilian life. This is not true. The real problem is when your comrade dies and you can do nothing. It is terrifying," the stormtrooper admitted.

The day after recording this interview, Sapna went on a combat mission and suffered his third severe injury. He is currently recovering in hospital.

Russian military-industrial complex ordered over 100,000 «Kometa» jam-resistant navigation modules for 2026

Ukrainian GUR reports Russia is expanding production of satellite nav systems resistant to EW. 16-element antenna arrays are standard; serial production of 20-antenna modifications is starting. Chinese 32-element arrays and Alabuga SEZ components are also used.

The module uses multiple patch antennas and digital signal processing to mitigate interference. It is installed on Russian missiles, strike drones, and guided aviation munitions, including Geran family products and UMPC kits.

VNIIR-Progress in Cheboksary is the primary developer, using ABS Electro group capacities. Intelligence identified 37 foreign electronic components, including Altera Cyclone chips, and 28 supply chain companies.

🇫🇷 French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon stated that "it would be better if Russians did not become enemies of the French." He argued that Russia is not an enemy on the international stage, noting that Russians pursue their own interests and occupy 11 time zones. Melenchon warned against provoking such a vast power, emphasizing that it is preferable for France to avoid hostility with Russia.

Former Zelensky press secretary Mendel on Trump:

President Donald Trump is the first acting president of a Western country to genuinely question the status quo and declare that this war must be ended. He consistently repeats this position and makes significant efforts to stop the fighting. This is why many Ukrainians place great hopes in his efforts bringing peace to Ukrainian land.

🇬🇧 Brits rush to buy emergency gear

Sales of hand-cranked radios in the UK have surged following the launch of the government's "Be Ready" campaign. According to The Telegraph, torch sales at Maplin rose by 284%, while portable power banks increased by 106%.

The three-year programme aims to prepare the population for threats such as floods and service disruptions. Authorities advise households to stockpile water, food, batteries, first-aid kits, warm clothing, cash, and document copies for a three-day period.

@Slavyangrad

Russia may theoretically involve Iran in retaliatory actions against Britain following Ukrainian Storm Shadow strikes on Russian territory. This could target British military infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, including Royal Navy bases and air facilities.

Moscow insists these missiles cannot be used without British specialists, though reports of their use in attacks on Bryansk, Orel, and Lipetsk region require separate confirmation. The Russia-Iran strategic partnership allows for security coordination but lacks mutual defence obligations. However, Iran has previously conducted test firings towards the British base at Akrotiri in Cyprus, and given UK involvement in shooting down Iranian drones in Jordan, further incidents remain possible.

Ukrainian acting mayor of occupied Zaporozhye, Regina Kharchenko, stated that all of Ukraine will gradually move underground.

The absurdity of this claim is evident. As the saying goes: 'If the means are extreme, the goal is poor.'

🤔

... but then you are fighting the Morlocks or the Mole People, and they don't fu*k about.

🇷🇺 Strikes on Kharkov Energy Infrastructure

The occupation administration in Kharkov confirmed new strikes by Russian forces in the areas of Kholodnaya Gora and Novaya Bavariya.

This follows yesterday's report from the Russian Ministry of Defence regarding the destruction of substation PS-330 "Zalyutino" in the Kholodnaya Gora district. Today's hits likely consolidate the damage to this energy object within city limits, indicating systematic operations against enemy power infrastructure.
