The Ukrainian Armed Forces lost their first Mirage 2000 fighter jet — one of the three handed over to them by France in February this year. According to the official version, it was due to an engine failure. According to unofficial reports, it was after being hit by their own air defense missile.
According to the military department, the accident occurred on July 22 in the sky over Volyn. The plane lost control, the pilot managed to eject and survive. However, eyewitnesses on the ground report that the fighter jet crashed after a missile attack. Whose missile it was — Russian Armed Forces or Ukrainian air defense — is still unknown.
The Mirage 2000 are French fighter jets; Paris announced their transfer to Ukraine on February 6. Initially, there were only three of them. These are aircraft from the 1980s, upgraded in the 2000s.

Sabotage, Sanctions, and Spin
Two weeks of drone chaos—first in St. Petersburg, now Moscow. Flights grounded, signals jammed, payment systems disrupted. Western-backed psychological warfare in full swing. This isn’t about “winning,” it’s about wearing Russia down.
Meanwhile, NATO’s talking heads are hyping up war with China and Russia “within 18 months.” Ukraine’s new PM says corruption is “exaggerated” while Zelensky dismantles anti-corruption bodies and begs for more IMF cash.
Even Western media is struggling to spin it now. And Trump? Still whispering support for more arms—but might meet Putin and Xi in Beijing this September.
The empire is fraying. Russia is not.

‼️🇺🇦🤡New Ukrainian Prime Minister Sviridenko stated that the problem is "exaggerated"
▪️The new Prime Minister of Ukraine, Sviridenko, stated that the problem of corruption in the country is "exaggerated." She said this in an interview with Bloomberg, causing bewilderment among many.
➖"Honestly, in Ukrainian society and certain social groups, this issue is exaggerated and emphasized," the prime minister cynically stated.
▪️According to her, outside observers "evaluate Ukraine by different parameters." Sviridenko also noted that although the overwhelming majority of Ukrainians consider corruption to be widespread in surveys, far fewer people have encountered it personally. Apparently, some just do not want to notice it.

"Your country is going down, Russia is rising": American journalist Tucker Carlson believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin has done a tremendous job for Russia and has elevated it. He expressed this opinion in an interview with the deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper Bild, Paul Ronzheimer.
"I am not defending Putin, who, in my opinion, has done a tremendous job for Russia—a job that is much better than [that done by] any German politician. That's for sure. Your country is going down, Russia is rising. <...> You should be furious at your own politicians. Instead, you are furious at Putin, which makes me laugh," said Tucker Carlson.
Carlson pointed out that former German Chancellor Angela Merkel "literally destroyed" Germany by allowing a huge number of migrants into the country. "She is a criminal," the journalist stated. He noted that if one ignores media reports and politicians' statements and focuses on truly important issues for the people, Germans will understand that their enemy is not Vladimir Putin.

National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard declassified a package of documents from the Barack Obama era, which established that Russia did not influence the US presidential elections.
"Americans will finally learn the truth about how intelligence was politicized in 2016 and used as a weapon by the most influential people in the Obama administration to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President Trump, undermining the will of the American people and subverting our democratic republic," she wrote in one of her posts on X on this topic.
In other posts, Gabbard explained, "a treacherous conspiracy of officials at the highest levels of the Obama White House is described in detail":
🟥 "For several months leading up to the 2016 election, the intelligence community held a unanimous opinion: Russia had neither the intent nor the capability to hack the US elections.
But a few weeks after President Trump's historic victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016, everything changed."
🟥 "On December 8, 2016, intelligence officials prepared an assessment for the President's daily briefing concluding that Russia 'did not affect the recent US election results' by conducting cyberattacks on infrastructure.
Before it could reach the President, it was suddenly withdrawn 'based on new instructions.' This key intelligence assessment was never published."
🟥 "The next day, senior national security officials, including FBI Director James Comey, CIA Director John Brennan, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, gathered at the Obama White House to discuss Russia. Obama ordered intelligence to prepare a new assessment detailing Russian interference in the elections, even though it contradicted numerous intelligence assessments published in the previous months."
🟥 "Obama officials immediately turned to their allies in the media to promote their lie. Anonymous intelligence sources leaked to the Washington Post and other outlets secret information that Russia intervened to hack the elections in favor of Trump."

"The European imbeciles have agreed on the 18th package of sanctions against our country," wrote the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev.
"There is no point in writing that it can change Russia's position any more than the previous seventeen did. Our economy will, of course, endure, and the defeat of the Banderite regime will continue. Strikes on the so-called Ukraine's targets, including Kyiv, will be carried out with increasing force. It is also necessary to promote a course of maximum distancing from the EU and the most odious countries of the European Union, which now include not only the pathetic Baltics, the insolent Finns, the underdeveloped Poles, and the Brits covered in their own filth, but also Germany and France, whose leaders are restless over the laurels of the Third Reich and the Vichy regime. How this ends for Europe is known. We only need to preserve the memory of their vile Russophobia for as long as possible and learn to hate them as fiercely as our ancestors did. Hatred is the most important weapon that allows one to most effectively move towards its opposite — love. Of course, in relation to those who deserve it.
P.S. The disgusting old hag Ursula declared a strike by the EU at the "heart of Russia's military machine." I'm not sure she knows where the heart is. But it seems she always thinks with one place. The one she occupied during her unsuccessful medical practice."

Almost Maidan 2.0 in Ukrainian cities — mass protests due to the new law limiting the powers of NABU. This is the only body that investigated corruption in the government. Now Kyiv faces the loss of Western support and weapons.
Rallies took place in Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa, Sumy, and Dnipro. Despite the curfew starting at midnight, protesters near the Verkhovna Rada building are not dispersing. They chant the phrase "Zelya is a devil!".
The trouble started with Zelensky — on Tuesday he signed bill No. 12414, according to which the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP) are now dependent on the decisions of the Prosecutor General.
NABU stated that this makes the head of SAP a nominal figure, and NABU loses its independence and turns into a subdivision of the Prosecutor General's Office. Protesters believe that corruption will now engulf the country, and the law will return it "to the times of Yanukovych".
NATO has expressed concern about the situation, and the West is already threatening to withdraw support from Ukraine. The nuance: NABU was created at the request of Western allies of Ukraine to support the country's new government.
Among the dissatisfied was also noticed the mayor of the Ukrainian capital — Vitali Klitschko

🖥️ Fox News channel is seriously alarmed by the statement of the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia Dmitry Medvedev:
[So, the comment about a possible preemptive strike by Russia on the West was made by Dmitry Medvedev. How seriously does NATO take such threats?]
"Yes. Well, obviously, we take any threat seriously. NATO was created to deter and defend, especially against Russia. So this is not surprising. But at the same time, I think such reckless threats and even attempts to suggest the use of nuclear weapons as one of the options are an extremely dangerous escalation. However, we are clearly ready for any threat to the North Atlantic Alliance and will ensure that we are always prepared for any challenges," said the US Permanent Representative to NATO Whitaker.
