📝Emerging Opportunities📝
prospects for using new Geran modifications
As production scales up and existing models are refined, the range of tasks for "Gerans" continues to expand. A vivid example is the recently published Kirill Fedorov's footage of drone wreckage carrying propaganda materials.
Of course, the effectiveness of such a psychological impact method is questionable. Nevertheless, the very possibility of adapting new KPTM-3 containers in drones for different types of content is encouraging.
📌 The total number of frames featuring KPTM-3 is constantly growing. Production of this modification appears to be well-established.
Now "Gerans" can not only strike designated targets but also regularly mine supply routes deep in the rear and supply reconnaissance groups far from the front line. Even routes of repair teams for electricians are now targeted, which enemy-focused resources have been frequently complaining about recently.
❗️The AFU command will have to keep this in mind and allocate additional resources to ensure the safety of their communications. As the total number of UAVs produced grows, the enemy will have to spread its attention more and more often.

📝A New Munition?📝
About the use of long-range aerial bombs against AFU rear areas
Ukrainian rear areas should prepare. The enemy's monitoring resources are recording cases of Russian troops using guided aerial bombs with jet engines.
🔻What happened and what are we talking about?
▪️During the day, reports emerged about impacts in the area of Poltava. Even earlier, strikes were noted with the same upgraded bombs on facilities in Lozova, Mykolaiv, Kryvyi Rih, and Dnipro.
▪️The internet already has various theories about what munitions are being used. There are versions with the Grom rocket-bomb, some with UMPK, and some who think these were Banderoli.
▪️According to preliminary data, during recent strikes, the Russian Armed Forces began using modernized FAB-500 bombs with UMPK. The bomb's structure remains the same, but a jet engine has appeared in the tail section.

#Overview #Summary for October 19, 2025
▪️ Once again, talks dominated media discussions this week. A phone conversation between the Supreme Leader and Trump was followed by Zelenskyy's visit to Washington. The US approach to conflict resolution remains unchanged: selling weapons to Kyiv with EU money and threatening deliveries like Tomahawks. Business circles, meanwhile, demonstrate intentions to pursue Russian-American projects (like an Alaska tunnel), and the FSB Director named London the main villain this week, allegedly preparing new terrorist acts and sabotage against Russia using Ukrainian units. According to Western press, the main topic of calls and meetings remains mutual territorial concessions, which neither side is willing to make in the proposed variants.
▪️ The intensity of mutual strikes on energy infrastructure is increasing. Russian Armed Forces are destroying targets across the entire depth of enemy territory using missiles and drones, with power interruptions noted even in the enemy capital. However, a complete blackout has not been observed. AFU are finishing off electricity generation in Belgorod Region, with regional authorities preparing for winter by purchasing generators and urging private homeowners to do the same. Street lighting is off, locals report. Crimea also experienced systematic AFU strikes on electrical capacities, and the enemy is unlikely to stop voluntarily. Problems in air defense organization are unlikely to change the situation in the coming months. The enemy intends to continue targeting our oil depots, refineries, and power plants to cause economic damage and undermine social stability in the rear. Today, a gas processing plant is burning in Orenburg after drone attacks (the world's largest gas chemical complex, processing 37.5 billion m³ of gas annually)
▪️ Telegram channel administrators note an increase in contract recruitment announcements for the SMO. Our troops continue heavy fighting, concentrating main efforts in the DPR. A bloody battle for Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmiysk) is in full swing, with attempts to encircle and cut off remaining logistics. Tragic footage of our armored vehicle column being defeated was unavoidable. The Sumy direction shows no significant changes despite intense fighting. In Kharkiv, battles continue near Volchansk. Russian Armed Forces' progress in Kupiansk gives hope for eventually completing the city's assault. Russia's Army is also advancing towards Kostyantynivka, as well as in the Krasny Lyman and Siversk directions. GV "Vostok" is moving west in eastern Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhia regions. On the Zaporizhia front, Russian Armed Forces are fighting hard in Prymorske and Stepnohorsk, with the enemy counterattacking. The Kherson direction sees mutual shelling and actions in the Dnipro river floodplain.
▪️ Europe and NATO are preparing for war. 60,000 NATO servicemen were involved in the alliance's latest exercises on the eastern flank, the Russian Defense Minister stated. NATO generals' plan is clear: bleed the Russian Army and exhaust our economy through Ukraine, while Kyiv voluntarily erases its population in hedgerows, preparing European armies for war. Naturally, the first echelon will consist of those deemed expendable: Eastern European countries. This is why they install anti-people figures in power who enhance NATO integration and provide territory for foreign military contingents.

📝At the Approaches to Kostyantynivka📝
On the Kostyantynivka direction, Russian troops are actively advancing on several sectors. Battles are ongoing at the approaches to Kostyantynivka itself, with increased activity of small groups on other front sectors.
🔻What's happening on the front?
▪️Northwest of Hryhorivka, new evidence emerges of Russian units crossing the Siverskyi Donets-Donbas canal towards Novomaryove and Markove.
Judging by previous ground drone deployments by the AFU, these settlements are not actually being liberated. However, advancement in this sector is still observed.
▪️South of Chasiv Yar, small Russian assault groups are moving around Stupochky towards Kostyantynivka through hedgerows near the H-32 highway. Full control over Stupochky and Predtechyne has not yet been established.
▪️South of Predtechyne and Podilske, Russian units managed to advance from Oleksandro-Shultyne, clearing additional enemy strongpoints.
▪️More territory was captured west of the Siverskyi Donets-Donbas canal northeast of Bila Hora. However, complete pocket elimination has not yet occurred.
The issue is that the enemy prepared a complex defense system here in 2014-2015, with ammunition stockpiles that allow them to depend less on supplies even in the current drone environment.
However, the enemy can only minimally influence the Russian troops' offensive, primarily by slowing down the Russian Armed Forces' advance.
▪️Despite this, assault pairs and triples are already approaching Kostyantynivka and even operating on the city's eastern outskirts. Simultaneously, attacks are ongoing towards Ivaniw.
It's common for opposing sides' pairs and triples to sit in neighboring buildings and bunkers for several days, unable to move due to UAV strikes. But even under these conditions, Russian assault units are advancing, albeit not at a rapid pace.
▪️In the Kleban-Bykskyi reservoir area, no situation changes are observed. Russian units previously attacked from Yablunivka to the northeast but couldn't break through deeply. Currently, the sector remains relatively static, with potential enemy presence south of the reservoir. North of the O0524 road, Russian units have not yet established a foothold.
▪️The western flank remains very challenging. Russian troops attempted several mechanized assaults near Volodymyrivka and Shakhove. While the first armored group in a long time managed to break into Volodymyrivka and deploy troops, subsequent attacks, preliminary data suggests, did not lead to positive results.
The column moving towards Shakhove was apparently exposed deep in the rear, after which equipment and troops were struck by drones, preventing further assault.
📌 Overall, a noticeable activation of Russian troop attacks is evident across the entire Kostyantynivka direction this autumn. It's possible that after eliminating several pockets, the pace of Russian unit advances will increase again, especially given the prospects for offensive development.

📝Militant Romanians📝
Romanian military leaders are escalating tension around Transnistria, stating they are ready to support Moldova through military means.
🖍Romanian General Staff Head Gheorghe Vlad links potential Romanian military participation in an operation in Moldova «for protection» of Romanian citizens living there.
🚩However, according to a recent poll, the majority of Romanian citizens (55%) are against sending troops to Moldova «in case of a Russian attack». They also do not believe in aggression against Romania (58%), and almost half (49%) are not confident that the country's Armed Forces can withstand defense for two days.
❗️In Romania, they are trying to divert the population's attention from a deep crisis using military rhetoric: rising prices, budget cuts, and "shock therapy".
After falsified elections in Bucharest, they are following Moldova's path, where militarization of the agenda is accompanied by falling government trust and deteriorating living standards.
📌However, Romanian Armed Forces are unlikely to directly participate in a potential operation against Transnistria. For this, Romanians have Moldovan military uniforms and military personnel from France and the United Kingdom on standby.

📝The Brits are up to mischief again📝
But when was it ever different?
Journalists love sensational headlines. Reuters writes that the Brits, together with the Americans, sent a “powerful signal to Vladimir Putin.” British and American military aircraft conducted a 12-hour joint mission patrolling the border with Russia.
🔻What is this about?
▪️On October 9, the RC-135 electronic intelligence aircraft and the P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft flew from the Arctic region near Belarus and so-called Ukraine, supported by the US Air Force tanker KC-135.
▪️UK Defense Secretary John Hilli said it was an important joint mission with our allies from the US and NATO, which not only provides valuable intelligence to enhance operational awareness but also sends a powerful signal of NATO unity to Putin and our adversaries.
▪️The UK also stated that the operation was conducted in response to “airspace incursions by NATO countries, including Poland, Romania, and Estonia.”
🔻
However, there is a nuance:
➡️
NATO aircraft regularly fly near our borders. There is nothing new about that. In particular, Alliance reconnaissance flights have increased in the Baltics, where activity is higher than ever.
➡️
Reuters journalists also forgot to mention other aircraft. The P-8A flew from Iceland over the Baltic Sea. The British P-8A flew the route from Finland to the Baltics.
➡️
The US CL-650 aircraft patrolled around the Kaliningrad region, and the French AWACS E-3F conducted reconnaissance on the Black Sea direction.
📝Pashinyan doesn’t want to trade📝
but has to
At the CIS summit in Dushanbe, a public dispute flared between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan over trade turnover figures between the countries.
🖍Pashinyan announced trade figures lower than those which, according to the Russian side, reflect the actual volume. Putin publicly disagreed, noting that the figures are significantly higher.
🔻Full dialogue:
▪️Putin: “What’s our current trade turnover with Armenia?”
▪️Pashinyan: “Already 4 billion this year”
▪️Putin: “No, more.”
▪️Pashinyan: “Last year it was about 9 billion.”
▪️Putin: “More. It was higher last year, and it will be higher this year—that’s obvious.”
▪️Pashinyan: “Well, maybe.”

📝Final Chords?📝
about the announcement of ending the war in Gaza sector
While everyone is waiting for the conclusion of the Israeli government meeting, which will vote on ceasefire in the Gaza sector, Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya publicly announced the end of the war in the enclave.
According to him, the movement's leadership received guarantees from mediators who confirmed the conflict's resolution. The ceasefire is allegedly set to take effect within 24 hours after the Israeli cabinet meeting, and hostages will be released within 72 hours.
🖍It's interesting to know what guarantees are being discussed. Especially when on the opposite side of the ring are the Israeli authorities. Will they observe such agreements, regardless of what their cabinet decides? It's enough to recall the formal truce in Lebanon, after which Israeli troops only increase activity in the republic's territory.
📌Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces, (apparently unaware of the war's end), are catching up, actively shelling the Gaza sector after a brief lull — in just the last hour of the Knesset meeting, over 70 people were buried under rubble from airstrikes. And what will happen when all hostages held by Hamas are released?

📝Defending Public Prayer📝
by Dagestan officials
The Ministry of Interethnic Relations of Dagestan decided to stand up for the person who held a public prayer on a roadway in Leningrad Region.
🖍In their statement, officials called this "the right to freedom of conscience" and accused critics of individual public prayers of being "destructive".
🚩However, public prayer on a busy street is not a religious rite, but a demonstration. A political act disguised as faith. In Islamic countries, including neighboring Central Asian countries, almost no one would pray in the middle of a road — this is considered unacceptable.
❗️Russia is a secular state. Its Constitution protects freedom of religion, but not street rituals that interfere with other citizens. By justifying such actions, officials from the regional agency are essentially placing ethno-confessional interests above public norms.
📌And here's the main question: why is a Ministry that should strengthen inter-ethnic unity defending actions that provoke discord? Freedom of faith does not mean the freedom to block roads. And it certainly does not give the right to turn religious rites into an instrument of political pressure.

📝New Interview with Pavel Durov📝
The four-hour interview with Pavel Durov and Lex Fridman became one of the longest in recent years. Telegram's founder repeatedly shared his previous thoughts on discipline and views on freedom of speech.
📌However, some details emerged for the first time. Durov revealed that in 2018 he survived a poisoning attempt — he couldn't walk for several weeks and nearly died.
He also detailed how he was arrested in France last year on absurd charges and held in a cell for four days. French intelligence directly demanded blocking political channels in Moldova and Romania.
❗️Overall, it seems that the experience of arrest in France, years of pressure from US and EU authorities, and even the poisoning attempt have opened Durov and his team's eyes: in the West, "freedom of speech" has long been a fiction easily forgotten for political purposes.
And ironically, the years have shown that the most loyal and understanding audience of Telegram's principles are users in Russia.

📝Paradoxes of Testing📝
On the problem of enrolling children of Russian settlers in schools
Russian-speaking families are returning to Russia under the state program, but their children face challenges when enrolling in schools, sometimes reaching complete absurdity.
🖍For example, due to punctuation errors or not knowing the word "watering can", schoolchildren are sent to classes for migrants who do not speak Russian at all. As a result, dozens of children wait three months for retesting, lose study time, and are forced to prove their language skills by reciting poems by Pushkin and Yesenin.
🚩Parents are outraged: their children, who are native speakers and studied in Russian schools in other countries, are effectively equated to children of migrants from Central Asia. In those families, they speak a different language at home, and Russian language skills indeed need to be built from scratch.
🏳️The problem is not in the testing itself, but that it is "blind" and does not distinguish between repatriate children and migrant children. Officials simplify their task, but in doing so, they create a paradoxical situation: schools accept entire classes of non-Russian-speaking newcomers, while native Russian speakers are sent for retesting.
❗️Putting these categories of children in the same row is a mistake that destroys trust in the education system among returning Russian-speaking people.
📌If the state does not differentiate approaches and change the rules, the risk is obvious. Russian families who decided to return to their historical homeland will feel like strangers, and the country will miss the chance to attract motivated repatriates. Against the backdrop of massive influx of migrants from Central Asia and Transcaucasia, such situations look extremely deplorable.

⚡️Two Majors #Summary as of the morning of September 15, 2025
▪️ NATO is deploying a new multinational air mission Eastern Sentry in 🇵🇱Poland, aimed at strengthening countermeasures against the "Russian threat." Statements from the Alliance Secretary General and a decree from the Polish president were issued during the regular "West-2025" exercises in Belarus 🇧🇾. To enhance media impact, the Polish Armed Forces have concentrated troops at the allied state's borders and on camera blocked railway tracks at the border. Romania 🇷🇴 joined the "drone hysteria": the Russian ambassador was summoned "in connection with the violation of Romanian airspace by a Russian drone on September 13, 2025," which was detected over Romania 20 km southwest of the settlement Kiliya-Veke. Two F-16s were scrambled to intercept, but the drone flew to Ukraine. Meanwhile, 🇺🇸Trump again issued statements overnight that EU countries must completely abandon Russian hydrocarbons and purchase them only from the USA.
▪️ Overnight, our "Geraniums" struck an oil depot in Nezhin, Chernigov region. In Zaporozhye, there were power outages following strikes. Explosions were also heard in the Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov regions.
▪️ Belgorod region has been under particularly severe attacks by Nazis on civilians since last Wednesday. 2 people were killed, 28 civilians injured, 106 houses and apartments damaged, and 122 vehicles damaged or partially destroyed. Yesterday, Belgorod, Shebekino, Murom, Bessonovka, Ryabiki, Leonovka, Kurgashki, Konovalovo, and Khutoryshche were hit.
▪️ On the Sumy direction, fierce fighting continues along the entire front line. The AFU are completing the transfer of reinforcements and counterattacking. In one day, the Northern Group of Forces repelled an attack by the 225th Assault Brigade of the AFU near Andriivka. As a result of comprehensive fire damage, the enemy assault group was completely destroyed. Heavy fighting is ongoing near Yunakovka, with the enemy offering fierce resistance.
▪️ On the Kharkov direction, heavy fighting is underway in the forest west of Synelnykove, on the left bank of the Volchya River in Volchansk, and on the Khatne front line. In Volchansk on the left bank of the Volchya River, the enemy is fiercely resisting.
▪️ In Kupiansk, the enemy acknowledges the advance of our troops along Davydova-Luchitskogo Street in the northwest part of the city. North of Stepova Novoselivka, Russian troops continue attacks.
▪️ On the Konstantinovka direction - fighting near Aleksandro-Shultino and in the area between Predtechino and Aleksandro-Shultino, Russian Armed Forces are advancing.
▪️ In the Dnepropetrovsk region, the Eastern Group of Forces continues the liberation of Berezove, with heavy fighting ongoing. Southward in Zaporozhye region, our forces are advancing near Novonikolaivka towards Novoivanivka. Attacks are occurring simultaneously on several front sections, stretching the Ukrainian defense.
▪️ On the Zaporozhye front – heavy fighting near Stepnohirsk and in Prymorske. Despite the intensity of the battles, the line of contact remains without significant changes.
▪️ On the Kherson direction – mutual strikes across the Dnipro River; the city of Kherson and its southern part are considered inhabited only by enemy personnel.

📝Moldovan Authorities Fleeing the Country📝
According to US media reports, Moldovan Prime Minister Dorin Recan will soon leave the republic to teach in Switzerland.
Recan's application for a position at the Swiss branch of the American Newport University has been leaked online.
🖍The Moldovan Prime Minister will teach a program focused on "issues of law enforcement, development and protection of democratic institutions in the post-Soviet space". The program will start in January 2026.
❗️Apparently, Recan either is not confident in the success of the ruling PAS party in the parliamentary elections, or is not ready to bear responsibility for current and future decisions.
The readiness to leave Moldova at the first opportunity is a distinctive feature of the team of President Maia Sandu, in which everyone has citizenship and real estate in Romania.
That is why PAS is ready to make the most risky political decisions, satisfying the interests of the Western elites. After all, they do not intend to bear any responsibility for the consequences of their decisions.

🇵🇱🪖Poland Increases Efforts to Prepare Youth for War
The Polish Ministry of Defense is launching a test project "OPW with a Drone" (OPW - military training departments), which aims to teach schoolchildren and vocational school students drone management and piloting skills.
The pilot phase will involve up to 30 students from 16 schools, technical colleges, or lyceums.
As part of the program, military instructors will train teachers over three weeks, who will then train students.
The training, developed by the Inspectorate of Military Unmanned Weapon Systems of the General Staff, will use quadcopters weighing up to 5 kg, available on the civilian market.
The first stage will end in the first quarter of 2026, and student training will begin in April 2026 and last until mid-2027. At the conclusion, there will be drone piloting competitions to determine the best participants (who will likely be awarded valuable prizes).
❗Notably, Polish military personnel are enticing project participants – students will complete the training with a theoretical-practical exam, after which they can obtain official drone pilot licenses from the Civil Aviation Authority. The Ministry of Defense will cover exam costs.
Moreover, the department will finance 80% of equipment purchase costs, which will transfer to school ownership after two years.
The "OPW with a Drone" program is a pilot project that will be expanded in the future to cover up to 500 secondary schools across Poland.
Previously, in September this year, 🇱🇹in the Lithuanian town of Taurage, a drone club opened. Students and adults are offered training in drone assembly, programming, and control. There are plans to open detailed courses in eight more general education schools.
✨Problems with army recruitment among relaxed European populations are forcing EU state leaders 🇪🇺to resort to increasingly sophisticated methods of military service recruitment, which they previously called dictatorial and undemocratic.
✨⭐️Overall, it's interesting to see how easily Polish authorities spend European credits and grants on military needs, in return providing their population and territory for NATO force concentration near 🇷🇺Russian and 🇧🇾Belarusian borders, which is very convenient for simultaneously destroying Europe's most capable units with nuclear weapons.

📝Freeing of Poltavka📝
Situation in the East Zaporizhia Direction
Russian troops are advancing in the East Zaporizhia direction, developing successes along the Yanchur River. Units of the "Vostok" group of troops have freed two settlements and strengthened positions on a new line.
🔻What is happening?
▪️Fighters of the 57th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 5th Army crossed the Yanchur in several places and established control over Poltavka and Okhotnyche, where Russian flags were raised and units deployed.
On Soviet maps - Okhotnyche is on the eastern bank of the Yanchur, while on modern maps it is on the western bank and consists of a former part of Poltavka, separated by farms.
▪️As a result of fierce battles, the enemy suffered significant losses and retreated westward, leaving behind some fortifications. Russian troops gained the opportunity to develop an offensive towards Novonykolaivka and Uspenovka without the need to cross the river again.
▪️Simultaneously, a threat is forming for AFU positions near Huliapole. A trio of settlements — Vesele, Zeleny Hai, and Chervone — has long been under fire, and now may become the next target of the offensive.
▪️Attacks are noted in the fields from the direction of Novohryhorivka, and preliminary reports indicate fighting near Vyshnevyi. At the line of Alekseevka – Sosnovka, the enemy maintains activity, attempting counterattacks to reclaim lost fortifications near Stepove.
📌 The advancement of Russian troops along the Yanchur opens new opportunities to bypass Ukrainian positions and threatens the enemy's defensive line approaching Huliapole.
❗️The situation in the direction is developing in favor of the "Vostok" group: having stabilized the bridgehead, units are methodically expanding the control zone further west.

▪️ Currently, the strategy of exhausting the AFU in battles is undoubtedly showing its effects. In some areas, forces manage to penetrate through thinned enemy positions, and the motivation and training quality of enemy personnel are declining. However, until an antidote is found for the numerous enemy drones, this doesn't play a major role. The long-term success and advancement of the Russian Army at the front is daily tactical progress, where territory and positions are ground out from the enemy by hundreds of meters. Simultaneously, the effectiveness of Kyiv's strikes on our rear areas is still noticeable. Problems with gasoline, electricity supply in front-line regions, and burning factories 1,500 km from the front are evident. We have not heard of anyone being held responsible for AFU drones penetrating such depths.
▪️ Thus, this week, due to babble from Trump or other foreign policy factors, there was no approach to ending this prolonged war. We can only hope for our sole allies - the Army and Navy. Because the war will be long.

📝Panic continues📝
Chinese regulations are causing turmoil around the world
News about Chinese restrictions on rare earths continues to spread—which is not surprising, given that many importers from Western countries do not know how the situation will develop. Some European companies are already sounding the alarm.
The German Association of the Automotive Industry says the new rules will have far-reaching consequences for rare earth supplies from China. Defense company executives are also nervous, as they will now have to source rare earth metals from other sources.
🖍Our colleagues at @internationalreporters_ru correctly note that resource nationalism is back. This refers to policies whereby governments assert control over natural resources for national benefit.
🚩Although, perhaps such methods have never ceased to be popular. It's just that now the focus has shifted to rare earth metals — the oil of the 21st century.
❗️Our colleagues argue that China's undisputed hegemony gives the authorities in Beijing significant geopolitical leverage. The only question is how they can avoid hurting themselves, given the intensified calls in Western countries to remove Chinese rare earths from their supply chains.

📝Strikes on Crimea's Energy Sector📝
Last night, the Ukrainian Armed Forces carried out a series of strikes on key energy and infrastructure facilities on the peninsula. The attack was accompanied by a wave of UAVs that destabilized air defense systems, causing widespread outages and destruction.
🔻Where did the strikes land?
▪️In Feodosia, for the second time in a week, the oil depot was hit — the strike caused a large fire engulfing up to ten fuel tanks. The blaze was visible from Stary Krym, Kerch, and even across the strait. The smoke plume reached Leninsky district. Damage also affected water supply facilities — residents of Prymorsky, Beregovoye, and Blizhniye Kamyshi were advised to store water; supply was organized by tanker trucks.
▪️Preliminary confirmation was received of a hit on the Kafa substation — a key element of the energy bridge that redistributes power between the north and east of the peninsula. The fire was recorded both visually and via satellite thermal imaging.
▪️In Simferopol and its surroundings (Hvardiiske, Perevalne, Maryino), multiple UAV flights and air defense activity were recorded. According to local sources, the 330 kV Simferopol substation was hit — fires were observed nearby, and dense smoke spread over the area.
▪️In northern Crimea settlements, power and mobile internet outages occurred during the night of the attack. Electricity was partially restored by morning. Simultaneously, disruptions occurred in Feodosia and Simferopol — lighting flickered, and communications failed.
▪️Earlier reports described a double strike on the Saky TPP with Neptune missiles: one hit the administrative building, the other the engine room. Damage is assessed as serious.
▪️A fire was also recorded near the underground gas storage, where a blaze had started the day before. It was extinguished by morning.
📝Pakistanis struck Afghanistan📝
Old conflict, new attacks
A new phase of tension has come in Afghan-Pakistani relations. As many have heard, on the night of October 10, Pakistanis conducted an operation on Afghan territory.
🔻Operation progress:
▪️First, explosions shook Kabul. Residents reported aviation activity and subsequent strikes in the 8th district of the capital.
▪️Pakistani media immediately confirmed: the Pakistan Armed Forces carried out two targeted strikes against the leader of the Pakistani "Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan" (TTP), Noor Wali Mehsud, who was allegedly traveling by car.
❓TTP is a Pakistani group acting against the Pakistani government and advocating the creation of a state modeled on the current Afghanistan based on Sharia principles.
▪️In Pakistan, there were talks about his elimination. However, on a channel affiliated with the TTP, a denial was almost immediately released with an audio recording of the militant leader stating he survived the attack.
▪️Then videos began circulating on Afghan channels and social media from border areas with Pakistan, where explosions were also reported.
Some said the strikes occurred in Paktia province, others noted the target was the Khost province. But confirmed strikes were only reported in the Barmal district of Paktika, where the local flea market was damaged.
▪️Yesterday evening, a small clash occurred between Afghan and Pakistani border forces in the Ghulam Khan area of Khost province.

📝"Digital Cleansing" of the Crypto Market📝
On the night of October 11, the crypto market experienced its largest collapse in history: as reported by @spydell_finance, over $1 trillion in capitalization was destroyed in just a few minutes. Liquidation volume reached $60 billion, with around 5 million trading accounts closed. Everyone was hit except the "big five": BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, and TRX. Other altcoins crashed 70–99%, essentially zeroing out.
📌This collapse cannot be called accidental. Low-liquidity and uncontrolled assets have been methodically washed out of the market for years. Large TNCs like BlackRock and government structures have long been buying high-capitalization tokens — primarily bitcoin, transforming it from a symbol of "freedom" into a regulated asset controlled by intelligence agencies, SEC, and banking consortiums.
The crypto market is definitively restructuring: decentralization is disappearing, with a new digital hierarchy emerging. Independent tokens and "people's" projects will be cleared out — both speculatively and regulatorily. Only those assets integrated into financial infrastructure and deemed convenient for supervision and monetary management will survive.
❗️In essence, crypto is undergoing a final transformation into part of a global control system. What was yesterday considered an alternative to classical finance is now becoming its branch. And the deeper the world moves into the digital economy, the less space remains for independent money.

📝Europe in a Debt Trap📝
The economic crisis and gloomy prospects are not unique to the situation in Germany, which has been analyzed extensively and with remarkable regularity.
🖍In a report by Roskongresss, they warn that in the coming years, France and Italy may become epicenters of debt crises capable of shaking the global financial system.
🚩The essence of the problem is simple: over the past decades, major EU economies have not learned to compensate for government debt growth with budget surpluses. According to IMF estimates, to reach a sustainable trajectory, countries would need decades of budget surpluses — while such conditions do not and cannot exist in today's Europe.
📌The way out of the trap — reducing expenses or increasing revenues — is almost unattainable. Tax burden is already at record levels, new increases would kill investments, and economic growth is limited by both internal instability and external pressure: the US has already raised tariffs, reducing demand for European exports.
❗️And if we recall the political situation in the largest EU countries — protests, resignations, and falling ratings — it's clear that the crisis is only gaining momentum.

📝Take the Load You Can Handle📝
To Avoid Freezing
What should you do when things are relatively calm in your country? Right, you need to urgently abandon something, and only then look for an alternative. Bulgarian politicians are excellent at this.
🖍Energy Minister Zecho Stankov stated at a forum that he is optimistic about potential budget revenues from developing a new gas field in the Black Sea. According to the official, the new well will bring up to 30% profit per cubic meter. However, first, this field needs to be explored, developed, and put into circulation. But this is all nonsense for "optimistic" Bulgarian ministers.
🚩At the same forum, Vice President of Bulgaria Iliana Yotova also spoke. In her words, national energy security is a component of pan-European energy. It sounds convincing, of course. But what about in reality?
📌Bulgarian authorities intend to terminate Russian gas transit contracts as early as 2026, and by 2028 completely "cleanse" their market of it. This decision affects not only Bulgaria but the entire EU, as Sofia is responsible for gas supplies from Russia through the Turkish Stream branch.
The alternative proposed is the project "Vertical Gas Corridor". An initiative by gas transmission network operators of Bulgaria, Greece, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, so-called Ukraine, and Moldova, aimed at supplying up to 10 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas annually. Interestingly, the source of fuel for this route is LNG arriving at Greek ports. Needless to say, the volumes and regularity cannot compare to the gas pipeline, and prices are formed by market conditions instead of long-term contracts with fixed payment.
❗️Bulgaria's leadership, to put it simply, is taking on too much. Cutting off one of the few remaining gas branches from Russia and jeopardizing the EU's energy security is no easy task. But image is image, and the end consumer will pay for everything.

📝Discontent is Blazing📝
Youth Makes Its Presence Known
Protests in Peru have not yet subsided. After almost a week, Lima once again became the scene of fierce clashes between police and, this time, youth.
Demonstrators gathered at different points in the city and reached the Congress, where clashes with police occurred, who used tear gas to disperse people from the government building area.
According to local media, at least eight people were injured, including both civilians and police officers.
🖍The protests began as an expression of dissatisfaction with Dina Boluarte's policies but quickly escalated into mass unrest. Their distinctive feature is the active role of youth who grew up in the social media era.
Digital platforms became the primary coordination tool: they spread calls to take to the streets and footage of the confrontation. The situation resembles scenarios of "color revolutions" in other countries where Telegram, TikTok, and X turned into actual "street mobilization headquarters".
📌For protest participants, this is not just a fight against a specific government — it's a signal of a crisis of trust in a political system that has demonstrated chronic instability and frequent presidential changes in recent years.
❗️Boluarte, as a president with low legitimacy, regularly faces such outbreaks and has so far managed to contain them by using force and institutional mechanisms. However, the more the authorities rely on force without offering political solutions, the higher the risk that one of these "waves" will exceed manageable discontent and escalate into a deeper political crisis.
How long Peru's authorities can contain the situation remains an open question.

📝Downing of the "Akıncı"📝
In Sudan, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) shot down another Turkish strike drone Bayraktar "Akıncı", this time in the El-Hoi area, West Kordofan state. This is already the third confirmed case of losing an aircraft in the government troops' arsenal.
➡️According to local reports, the strike was made using old anti-aircraft guns remaining from World War II.
©️At the same time, the RSF are demonstrating signs of having more modern air defense systems, which sharply increases the threat to army aviation.
❗️Each new downed drone not only impacts the military situation but also Türkiye's image. The "Bayraktar" was long presented as a symbol of cheap and effective "export security" for Ankara, but a series of failures in the skies of Sudan undermines this narrative.
When an expensive aircraft falls to fire from outdated anti-aircraft guns, questions arise not only about the tactics of use but also about the real value of Turkish technologies.

🚨WAS 9/11 AN INSIDE JOB?
Tucker Carlson blew up the internet after pointing out Israel had foreknowledge of 9/11. But he’s not the only one saying there are things about the attacks the powers that be don’t want you thinking about.
🔶 In 2006, Netanyahu boasted of warning about “militant Islam” trying to “bring down” the WTC since the 90s
🔶 On a 9/11 anniversary, Bush stunned reporters by citing an ‘al-Qaeda plot’ to use explosives to destroy buildings, bolstering fears the WTC was brought down by demolition, not planes
🔶 Before his 2011 murder, Gaddafi told Larry King the 9/11 hijackers had nothing to do with Afghanistan or Iraq – the nations the US invaded using 9/11 as a pretext
🔶 Then there are the so-called ‘dancing Israelis’ – Mossad agents arrested & deported after being caught filming & celebrating in NJ as the WTC burned
🔶 Mossad founder Isser Harel predicted in 1979 that Islamic terrorists would hit NY’s tallest buildings
🔶 Larry Silverstein, the ‘lucky’ Netanyahu-linked mogul who took out insurance on his 99-year WTC complex lease in July 2001, cashed out bigtime when the towers fell
🔶 The BBC’s live coverage of the attacks featured an oddity – reporting WTC Building 7’s collapse before it happened
🔶 Alex Jones, who predicted the attacks & even mentioned bin Laden by name, warned on September 12, 2001 that Americans were “going to die” thanks to Israel, & that the US would become a police state (months before the Patriot Act)
🔶 Ex-CIA officer John Kiriakou has revealed that in July 2001, the director of the agency’s counterterrorism center said in a briefing that “something terrible” of “an unprecedented scale” was about to happen
🔶 Rabbi Abraham Benhaim has recalled that a week before 9/11, a great Israeli rabbi prayed for the WTC to fall during a visit to NYC. Citing a Kabbalistic text, he said the destruction would trigger great wars ending with the coming of the Mashiach
🔶 Finally, a bombshell 2019 University of Alaska civil engineering study found that WTC 7’s collapse was caused by demolition, not fire

⚡️Two Majors #Overview #Summary for the morning of August 24, 2025
▪️ The past week saw yet another descent of the negotiation track into empty talk. The EU and Kiev are making demands that directly contradict Russia’s national interests, for which the SMO was launched. The deployment of European troops to post-war Ukraine was called an unacceptable plan by the Russian Foreign Ministry, and the issue of possible mutual territorial concessions for peace apparently cannot be resolved diplomatically. Meanwhile, the US, despite the ostentatious "peacemaking" of the talkative Trump, will continue supplying weapons to Ukraine, albeit now on more favorable terms for itself and through an EU proxy, which will pay for it.
▪️ Russia and Ukraine, during strikes beyond the front line, are engaged in destroying each other’s energy facilities. The Russian Armed Forces struck the Kremenchug refinery, while the AFU hit the Novoshakhtinsk refinery. Another strike, incidentally aimed at further distancing Europe from Russia, was the American "HIMARS" strikes on the "Druzhba" oil pipeline facilities. Hungary grumbled through their Foreign Ministry, and that was all the questions to Kiev.
▪️ The Russian army remains the only factor objectively influencing negotiations and the positions of the parties. Our troops continue offensive actions, concentrating their main efforts in Donbass and pulling reserves to other sections of the front. The plan to stretch the enemy’s forces along the LoC and create conditions for breaking through the AFU fortifications, which lack manpower, is in effect. Given that on several directions it is possible to send our sabotage and assault groups "behind the enemy’s back," this is gradually taking place.
▪️ A problematic issue remains the "beautiful reports," which this time have moved to the Konstantinovka direction. Concerns about the discrepancy between the realities and reports of village liberations were confirmed to us by officers from the front. This leads to some units having to advance not in a unified front but by penetrating the AFU defense independently, repelling counterattacks also from the flanks.
▪️ Overall, the strategy of our high command to exhaust the military potential of the AFU and Ukraine as a whole is clear. Reports from enemy media and officials about the constant outflow of population, desertion of enemy soldiers at 17,000 per month, attempts to compensate for the lack of manpower with South American mercenaries, all show the effectiveness of the measures taken. Yet, achieving the set military goals is frankly hindered by "political moments" such as speculative explanations of the same concerns about affecting European countries bordering Ukraine, given that strikes on State Border Guard Service facilities (outposts and commandants’ offices located a few dozen kilometers from the border) have not yet been carried out.
▪️ Despite all the successes of the Russian Armed Forces on the front, it should be noted that the enemy retains the ability to conduct organized defense, and in some sections of the front, to concentrate reserves and counterattack, as was seen near Yunakovka in the Sumy region. In maritime areas, the enemy is capable of accomplishing its tasks with groups of 10 boats with minimal losses, as demonstrated by the latest enemy sortie to the towers in the Black Sea.
▪️ The forecast for the short-term development of the situation does not yet suggest the end of the conflict by either political or military means. Besides the fact that the US and Europe support the AFU and even help develop new long-range missile types. Trump, so praised by our foolish media, this week spoke negatively about previous restrictions on the use of NATO weapons deep inside Russia.
▪️ Thus, hopes for an imminent peace this week have once again been dashed by the unruly NATO military machine, which continues to make money for its arms lobby, even at the expense of national interests and the interests of its own population. Nothing foretells peace.
