📝Romanian Students Pay for the EU📝
Student Protests in Romania
In Romania, the first protests were held against the new government's plans to introduce strict austerity measures, which are demanded by the EU. One of the first decisions of the new government was to cut the student scholarship fund by 40%.
🖍Rallies were held in university centers across the country, and the "National Alliance of Student Organizations" (ANOSR) warns that the reduction in scholarships will increase inequality and complicate access to higher education. Only 22.5% of Romanians aged 24-35 have a higher education.
🚩Strict fiscal measures are a direct demand of the EU, for non-compliance with which Romania is threatened with being cut off from European funds. This is what is pushing the new authorities to cut social spending.
🏳️Critics note that some EU countries (such as France or Germany) do not always strictly comply with the same rules, but do not receive the same pressure as weaker economies like Romania or Greece.
❗️In Romania, they fought so hard for pro-European and pro-NATO authorities that now they have to fulfill their demands, making the standard of living of the population even worse. And this is while the president Nicuşor Dan promises to raise defense spending to 3.5% of GDP.

📝Suddenly they spoke up📝
Reaction of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry to the operation against organized crime group members
It is interesting to observe how the agencies of neighboring countries, whose citizens become involved in criminal chronicles, react to the intensified fight against ethnic crime and migrant lawlessness.
This time, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry made a statement after the arrest of criminals during a recent FSB operation in Yekaterinburg over a 20-year-old case. The actions of the Russian law enforcement agencies in Baku were called unacceptable violence.
The question is, what business do Russian law enforcement have, arresting criminals on Russian territory for a murder case? Not to mention that against the backdrop of criminal expansion of Azerbaijani organized crime groups, there are rather questions about the softness of the methods of fighting them.
📌 In general, it is noteworthy: when migrants from Central Asia or the Transcaucasus commit high-profile crimes, the diplomats of these countries remain silent - just remember the behavior of the Tajik Foreign Ministry during the terrorist attack in "Crocus". But when criminal elements are detained, they immediately speak up.
❗️This is a perfect illustration of priorities, as well as the true attitude of the neighboring countries towards migrant organized crime groups on the territory of Russia. And also a natural consequence of the softness of the domestic policy in the post-Soviet space, the revision of which has been overdue for a very long time.

📝How the British Will Undermine the Mongolians📝
The State Secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, Sereeteriin Javkhlanbaatar, and the British Ambassador, Fiona Blyth, signed a Roadmap for Cooperation in the Field of Mineral Resources.
According to the document, the parties will cooperate in conducting geological research and using modern technologies for regional geophysical and geochemical mapping.
🖍Last April, representatives of Mongolia and the UK already concluded a memorandum of cooperation in the field of rare earth metals, and in February of this year it was reported about plans to cooperate with the British Geological Survey.
🚩In fact, the trend of Western penetration into strategic spheres for Mongolia is being reaffirmed. The Mongolians are inviting the British, clearly leaning towards cooperation with the Anglo-Saxon tandem, rather than Russia and China. And the change of the Prime Minister will change little in the context of relations with Moscow.

📝The Alabuga project is under attack again📝
Who is bothered by the working migration model
Almost every week, Western media carry attempts to discredit the recruitment program in Alabuga SEZ - allegedly people are lured there into slavery. Now Interpol is investigating claims of alleged human trafficking in Botswana.
In general, such attention from Western structures only confirms the thesis that the project is indeed effective and irritates those for whom chaos and uncontrolled migration in Russia are beneficial.
📌However, now is the time to move from local success to scaling up. It is especially important that the Russian foreign policy department gets involved in the process: proper advertising and consultations for migrants in embassies could remove possible suspicions at the start - especially in African countries, where the audience so far perceives such generous offers with caution.
❗️With competent information support and replication of the Alabuga approach, it would be possible to create a powerful and so far underestimated tool of personnel policy - simultaneously solving the problem of manpower and minimizing the risks of ethnic crime.

Regarding the reports about North Korean troops in the Kursk Region, I can provide the following translation:
The North Korean military arrived with their own equipment, which is of course very good. Firstly, they were able to test their units. Secondly, they tested their own weapons. This is very valuable experience that very few have.
I know of a story where they decisively defeated the Ukrainians, liberating one of the settlements in the region on their own.
They're real champions. I completely agree with Sanya Simonov @brussinf that it was necessary to document the work of the DPRK troops for history and in memory of those who perished on Russian soil.

📝From Kursk to Sumy Region📝
On the completion of the liberation of Kursk Region
The Russian Ministry of Defense reported on the completion of the operation in Kursk Region and the full liberation of the region from the presence of Ukrainian formations.
🖍At the moment, footage has appeared online showing the raising of the Russian flag in the center of the settlement of Gornal, and it was announced that the border village has been fully liberated. Thus, the presence of the enemy remains only in several gullies and ravines along the border.
They are hard to access and difficult to pass through, so the enemy will most likely be able to hold out there for some time, even taking into account constant artillery shelling and drone strikes.
❗️Even the complete clearing of the Russian region does not mean its complete safety. To ensure this, a full sanitary zone will still need to be created in the vicinity of Yunakovka and other border settlements. It is in these settlements, after the resettlement of residents, that a large concentration of enemy formations is observed, as well as the operation of operators of unmanned systems, both reconnaissance and strike.
And only with the creation of a full cordon and a security zone will the threat of infiltration of new sabotage and reconnaissance groups of Ukrainian formations into the territory of Russia be mitigated.
📌 However, this will not eliminate the threat of drones and missile strikes, since Ukraine has not even thought of stopping shelling various Russian regions and carrying out terrorist activities. Proof of this is the recent murder of Yaroslav Moskalyk and recent reports of the prevention of terrorist attacks by forces from Central Asia.

📝Advance Towards "Berezka"📝
Successful offensive by Russian troops north of Dzerzhynsk
Russian troops are gradually advancing their offensive on the flanks of Dzerzhynsk. In recent days, they have managed to significantly wedge into the AFU defense north of the city, creating a threat to the enemy's supply lines in the area of Dyleevka and Dachnoye.
Advance assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces were spotted on the territory of the "Berezka" children's camp, previously used by the enemy to accumulate reserves and redeploy them to the area of the "Toretskaya" mine and the development of Krymske.
📌 At the moment, it is not possible to establish whether the Russian units managed to consolidate their control over the facility. This area is marked by high activity of AFU UAV units, attacking the positions of Russian troops and hampering the delivery of supplies.
❗️Nevertheless, establishing control over the children's camp will allow the Russian troops to form the southwest face of the semi-encirclement of the enemy grouping along the line Dachnoye - Dyleevka.
The situation of the AFU will become even more complicated when the Russian Armed Forces "pull up" UAV units capable of striking at supply routes and the redeployment of reserves.

🚨☦️😡Another BLATANT ATTACK on the Orthodox by Ukraine
An Orthodox temple complex in Russia’s Belgorod region has been turned into a smoldering PILE OF RUINS in the wake of a Ukrainian drone strike.
The Noviy Yerusalim (‘New Jerusalem’) temple complex, situated in the village of Sukharevo, Belgorod Region was set ablaze Thursday night, reportedly targeted by a Baba Yaga-type hexacopter drone dropping incendiary munitions.
💉 Attacking rescuers
When firefighters arrived to battle the flames, a second drone tried to attack them and their vehicles.
Only luck and the timely evacuation of monks and pilgrims prevented anyone from being hurt during the drone attacks, or the fire.
🏛 Attack on history
The New Jerusalem complex is a reproduction of traditional ancient Orthodox-style churches, gradually built since 2001 and financed by public donations. Made entirely of wood, in the old style, the complex featured seven holy shrines and eight hillside crosses.
☦️ Anti-Orthodox terror
Ukraine’s military regularly targets religious sites during missile, drone and artillery strikes in Russia, including the Donbass, Kherson and Zaporozhye, but also border regions like Belgorod and Kursk.
At home, the Zelensky regime has cracked down HARD on Orthodoxy, seeking to dismantle the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church, revoke its land rights, seize church buildings and attack clergy.

📝How Britain Got Wrecked at Krynky📝
new evidence of direct UK involvement in the Ukrainian conflict
Following last year’s leaks confirming the establishment of the British covert initiative Project Alchemy for direct engagement in the war in Ukraine, The Grayzone has published new documents outlining how the UK helped plan and execute one of the bloodiest and most disastrous operations of the entire conflict — the assault on the village of Krynky in the Kherson region.
🔻Key takeaways:
▪️The Krynky operation was designed with the involvement of the UK Ministry of Defence. Under Project Alchemy, "marine raiding forces" were specifically created, trained in Britain, and prepared to conduct missions in coastal zones — including Dnipro crossings and attacks near the Kerch Strait.
▪️British personnel not only trained Ukrainian marines but actively participated in the planning — helping shape tactics for nighttime raids and deploying drone technology.
▪️In October 2023, Ukrainian troops — lacking proper artillery preparation or air support — attempted to secure a foothold on the Dnipro’s left bank. Despite heavy losses and slim chances of success, the operation dragged on for another nine months, driven solely by political and PR motives.
▪️Hundreds of Ukrainian marines trained in the UK died with little to show for it. The result was senseless bloodshed and destroyed equipment.
📝Well, Starmer, you've backtracked, haven't you?📝
One of the main foreign policy topics in recent months has been the deployment of a "peacekeeping contingent" of European allies to the territory of the so-called Ukraine.
🖍During this time, we have gone from creating a "coalition of goodwill" and being ready to protect the Kyiv regime "on land, at sea and in the air" to less belligerent statements.
🚩Starmer's plans to create a coalition were criticized by British servicemen, who called them "political theater". Initially, it was allegedly planned to send about 10,000 soldiers.
But now, according to The Times, it appears that only the deployment of military instructors in the western part of the so-called Ukraine, away from the front line (which we wrote about a year ago) is being considered.
🏳️Of course, all these ideas are not very popular with the British military. And they have a pretty good reason to rebel, given the state of the army.
❗️In fact, all these initiatives are intended to push Poland or other countries to do the dirty work for the British on the territory of the so-called Ukraine. So far, it's not going so well.

Result of a missile strike by the Russian Armed Forces on Workshop No. 10 of the O.K. Antonov Aviation Scientific and Technical Complex in Kyiv.
The workshop suffered significant damage - the roof collapsed in several places. The plant became the target of a massive missile strike at night on April 23.
Let's recall that it was at the Antonov production facilities that the enemy organized the production of long-range kamikaze drones AN-196 "Liutyi". However, since the Soviets built for the ages, it is impossible to destroy the entire complex with several ballistic missiles, a systematic approach is needed here.

📝Why does Kazakhstan need territorial defense?📝
Deputies of the Majilis of the Republic of Kazakhstan approved in the second reading the draft law "On the Territorial Defense of the Republic of Kazakhstan". The main law separates territorial defense into a separate sphere.
The law also introduces new concepts for the Kazakhstani defense system: "self-defense formation" and "volunteer". Self-defense formations are formed by local military authorities during martial law and wartime.
🖍Even liberal Russian journalists touched on this topic, writing that most of the Territorial Defense units will be deployed on the border with Russia.
❗️However, if we assess this objectively, this is a logical move. The Ukrainian experience, whatever it may be, has shown that Territorial Defense units have proven to be quite effective in the combat zone. Mostly as cannon fodder, but still.
🚩It's no coincidence that we, along with our colleagues from Dva Mayora, discussed the need to create a territorial defense in Russia. With proper legislative and practical implementation, such formations can provide certain assistance to army units.
And our Kazakhstani neighbors are gradually adopting similar experience. Earlier, we wrote about reforms in the Kazakhstani army aimed at training highly mobile and maneuverable formations. However, in the case of Kazakhstan, one should take into account the local mentality, as all these talks about Territorial Defense may remain just talk.
📌 However, Kazakhstani deputies do not seem to be stopping and apparently want to bring the draft law to its conclusion, especially since the creation of new troops is a great information occasion and a demonstration that something is being done. And that's all that's needed in Kazakhstan.

Morning Summary on April 25, 2025
▪️ Overnight strikes by our "Geraniums" hit Kharkiv, Pavlohrad, as well as the Dnipropetrovsk, Sumy and Kyiv regions.
▪️ Last night, regional Crimean channels reported sounds of air defense activity in the Yalta area around 4 AM. In the evening from 9:40 PM to 10:30 PM Moscow time, seven Ukrainian fixed-wing UAVs were destroyed: five UAVs over the territory of the Republic of Crimea and two UAVs over the Belgorod Region.
▪️ In the Kursk Region, battles are underway to liberate the last enemy-occupied settlement in the Sudzha District - the village of Gornal. In the Sumy Direction, the AFU are trying to prevent the advance of our troops from the vicinity of the Oleshnya farmstead. The enemy is transferring manpower and equipment to this section of the front.
▪️ Yesterday in the Belgorod Region, the enemy again tried to break through in the Krasnoyaruzhsky District. All enemy assault groups were destroyed. Battles are ongoing for the liberation of Popovka. The enemy has begun redeploying units from other directions. Additionally, south of Velikiy Burluk in the Kharkiv Region, the Nazis are concentrating personnel and equipment. An air strike burned down the "New Jerusalem" temple complex in the village of Sukharevo, Valuyki District. In the village of Mokraya Orlovka, one woman was killed and one was injured in an FPV drone attack. Moshchenoe, Novaya Tavolzhanka, Baytsuры, Tishanka, Krasny Pakhar, Krasny Oktyabr, Urazovo, Krasnaya Yaru, and Prelestnoe were under attack.
▪️ In the Konstantinovka Direction, the Russian Armed Forces are developing success near the recently liberated Kalinovo, Tarasovka and Sukhaya Balka. They also report offensive actions by the Russian Armed Forces north of Dzerzhynsk (Toretsk). Fighting is also ongoing in the urban area of the city itself.
▪️ The "East" grouping of troops continues to advance in the Shakhtar Direction, creating a threat of encirclement of AFU forces in the Bogatyr and Otradnoye areas. Over the past day, four enemy attacks were repelled. Near the settlement of Bogatyr, they managed to break through 1.5 km along the dam to the eastern outskirts. 20 km southwest, in Volnoye Pole, our assault teams have entrenched themselves in the central and eastern parts of the village, clearing 5 buildings.
▪️ On the Zaporizhzhia Front, the AFU are increasing the number of FPV drone crews to slow the advance of our troops. Our paratroopers continue assault operations.
▪️ On the Kherson Direction, there were reports of counter-attacks in the floodplain of the Dnipro River near the Antonovsky Bridge.

Overview Summary for June 29, 2025
▪️The past week has shown the cynicism of leaders in the USA, Israel, and Iran, pursuing geopolitical and domestic goals at the expense of the common people. Generals were eliminated, missiles spent, and the military-industrial complex profited, even as the IAEA was stunned by the brazen game.
▪️Air defense missiles intended for Kyiv were redirected to Israel, enabling a massive strike across Ukraine last night.
▪️Kyiv awaits US military aid, but European bureaucrats plan to divert funds from stolen Russian accounts, benefiting the Anglo-Saxon elite. Ukraine will receive only what's necessary to continue the "meat grinder".
▪️As the US focuses on China, Ukraine's sponsorship will diminish, with civilian aid cut by half next year.
▪️The Russian Armed Forces are advancing in several directions, but the enemy maintains combat stability, hoping to prolong the conflict. The lack of personnel and the slow adaptation to modern warfare remain challenges.
▪️There are reports of another strike by the AFU on our aviation, highlighting the lack of proper shelters, while lucrative real estate projects take priority.
▪️The situation at the front depends on the supply and support of assault troops, as evident from the outrage over attempts to regulate military volunteers.
▪️The past week has been a bitter manifestation of the proverb "for some, it's war, for others, it's a mother's love".

📝B-2A Bombers En Route📝
So, after more than a week of preparations, American B-2A bombers are flying to the Middle East. For now, they are heading to Guam, but that is just a transit point.
The final destination will be Diego Garcia island, where four other B-52H bombers are already stationed. This is the closest and relatively safest airbase in the direction of Iran.
The exact number of aircraft remains in question. According to preliminary data, from 4 to 6 units. Why B-2A? These are the only planes capable of carrying the 14-ton Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs.
This bomb is needed to inflict the necessary damage on the underground infrastructure in Fordow and other nuclear facilities in Iran.
🖍The B-2A flight is essentially the final touch to the overall picture. One carrier strike group is already off the coast of Iran, and another is approaching the Arabian Sea from the Indian Ocean.
🚩The US Air Force's tactical aviation has also flown to the Middle East in the last few days, including F-22A. The grouping has gathered quite impressive, and only the B-2A was missing.
❗️For now, the current US actions are part of a policy of total pressure on Iran in order to compel it to its terms. Now the question arises, will the US strike Iran? We tend to believe that the attack will be limited in the hope of Iran's lack of reaction. But such an option is highly unlikely.

📝A Word About the Korean Regiment📝
On the participation of North Korean fighters in the liberation of the Kursk Region
During the announcement of the complete liberation of the Kursk Region, the Chief of the General Staff, Gerasimov, also finally acknowledged the participation of North Korean soldiers and special forces in the operation to liberate the Kursk Region.
🖍The very fact of the participation of North Korean units has not been particularly publicized until now, but it has not been too strongly denied either. Rumors about this have been circulating since January. North Korean fighters were spotted interacting with Russian units in battles near Kurilovka, Sverdlikovo and Sudzha, as well as in several other areas, where they proved to be determined assault troops and interacted quite effectively, even taking the language barrier into account.
❗️It should also be noted that the North Korean fighters acted exclusively on the internationally recognized territory of Russia. And, accordingly, they cannot even formally be accused of participating in hostilities against the so-called Ukraine, because in the Kursk Region, a counter-terrorist operation was actually carried out.
📌 And it is very good that the participation of North Korean fighters was officially recognized. This is simply right in all senses of the word. The North Koreans have shown themselves to be the only allies willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with Russia directly on the battlefield.

📝Gingerbread for Sandu from Kallas📝
On the EU military aid package for Moldova
The EU's foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas visited Chisinau and announced a new 60 million euro military support package for Moldova, of which 20 million is for air defense. The delegation from Brussels has already delivered a batch of tactical equipment to the Moldovan army.
🖍The Moldovan authorities constantly claim cases of drone crashes in the border areas of the country, asserting without any investigation that they are of Russian origin. Such statements were accompanied by requests to the EU for air defense funding.
🚩Moreover, a year ago, the Moldovan authorities bought the ill-fated French THALES Master-200 radar for 14.5 million euros from the state budget, which never showed its effectiveness. Now Brussels is allocating 20 million euros for air defense: in comparison, it can be understood that the amount is not so large as to ensure Moldova's air defense. But the media effect is great, which was the main calculation.
🏳️Since 2021, the EU has allocated 197 million euros for the Moldovan army. The justification, as usual, is the alleged security threat from Russia. Chisinau is the second largest recipient of military aid from Brussels after the so-called Ukraine.
❗️The regime of Maia Sandu is finally stuck in a vicious circle. To create an anti-Russian military bridgehead, this government is being allocated multi-billion dollar loans as a short-term compensation to keep the regime afloat. And it doesn't matter that the country's external debt is growing exponentially, and the standard of living of the population is rapidly declining.

Latvia will use private land plots to build defensive structures on the border with Russia
The country's Ministry of Defense has prepared a bill that will allow the placement of defensive structures on privately owned plots near the border with Russia🇷🇺. The territories that will be expropriated by the state for defense needs will be assigned the status of objects of national interest.
The placement of defensive structures is planned both along the border itself and up to 30 km deep from it.
The decision is justified by the need to create an effective defense line in the Baltics. Earlier, 🇵🇱Poland began construction of a line of defensive fortifications on the border with Russia as part of the "Eastern Shield" program, which involves equipping 800 km of ditches, installing minefields and anti-tank hedgehogs.
✨A day before this, Latvia officially withdrew from the Ottawa Convention on the Prohibition of Anti-Personnel Mines. 🇵🇱Poland, 🇪🇪Estonia, 🇱🇹Lithuania and 🇫🇮Finland also announced plans to withdraw from this convention. Now, it seems, they will mine the entire border with Russia🇷🇺 and Belarus🇧🇾, leaving only passages for the movement of NATO columns🚩 to the East.
✨⭐️It's not clear why they decided (⁉️) that Russia🇷🇺 will fight NATO🚩 with conventional weapons.

🖌Today marks the 39th anniversary of a tragic event in our nation's history - the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, the largest in the history of nuclear power. This date is commemorated as the Day of Remembrance for Victims of Radiation Accidents and Catastrophes.
Approximately 600,000 people were involved in the cleanup efforts following the catastrophe. Among them were firefighters who arrived at the station almost immediately after the explosion, helicopter crews that poured a special mixture onto the 4th reactor of the Chernobyl NPP, and builders of various protective structures.
🖍Military and civilian specialists were in the radiation exposure zone - many received doses exceeding the permissible limits. However, through their selfless and professional actions, these people saved the world from an even more terrible outcome.
🚩Unfortunately, the accident on April 26, 1986 is not the only one of its kind in Russian history: there was also an explosion at the "Mayak" plant in 1957, incidents on submarines, and accidents during testing. Today is dedicated to those who perished while working with nuclear energy facilities since the country entered the nuclear era.

🇬🇧 This article from The Grayzone has another interesting point that caught our attention: the description of British plans for Crimea, which involved the targeted destruction of air defense positions in northwestern Crimea.
Through drone attacks, the British hoped to reduce the defensive potential in Crimea, in order to subsequently create a bridgehead for an amphibious operation involving both boats and USVs, as well as helicopters.
The most interesting part is that if we set aside the setbacks in the Kherson region, the Ukrainian side is otherwise trying to implement this plan in the Crimean direction.
In recent months, the AFU have been regularly and systematically attacking air defense positions. Both radar systems and air defense missile systems have been hit, which has also been facilitated by the appearance of USVs with FPV.
Overall, an interesting article that deserves attention.

The US has rejected Israel's requests regarding Syria
In the context of negotiations between the Syrians and Americans, another point is of interest: according to the Middle East Eye agency, in Washington they rejected attempts by Israelis to prevent the withdrawal of US troops from Syria.
To the displeasure of Israel and Syrian Kurds, officials in the Trump administration confirmed the continuation of the procedure to reduce the number of American troops deployed in the Al-Hasakah and Deir ez-Zor provinces in the east of the country.
📌The Pentagon's plans are to reduce their numbers from 2,000 to 1,000 personnel. The US is daily transporting equipment and personnel across the border Al-Walid crossing into Iraqi Kurdistan.
🖍As MEE notes, such news is an attempt to accelerate the Kurdish "Syrian Democratic Forces" (SDF), who reluctantly integrate their institutions with the "government" of Al-Julani. At the same time, the threat of Turkish attacks looms.
🚩In Israel, they fear that even a partial withdrawal of Americans will only lead to a strengthening of Turkey, which seeks to increase its activity not only in the border areas in northern Syria, but also in other provinces.
❗️However, with this arrangement, some American troops still remain in the Euphrates region. And the military-political work with the SDF and proxies from the "Free Syrian Army" group in the At-Tanf and Palmyra areas is unlikely to stop.

📝Non-market Relations📝
on the lawlessness of migrants in Voronezh
It has been repeatedly noted that markets in our country have become a favorite haven for migrants, and the market relations in them have long turned into criminal ones. In addition to the problematic markets in the center of St. Petersburg and the Moscow Sadovod, a similar problem is encountered in almost all cities in Russia.
🖍Another unpleasant incident occurred at the Alekseevsky market in Voronezh, where Azerbaijanis did not like the entrepreneurial activity of a Russian. The young man, having bought out all the goods at one of the vegetable bases of the city, seriously angered his competitors. Instead of looking for another supplier, the Azerbaijanis could not come up with anything else but to solve the issue in a somewhat different field.
🚩The angry crowd that gathered at the trading point of the Russian sharply demanded to share the goods with them, which was refused. Subsequently, specialists from Azerbaijan began to beat the seller. After public outcry, the administration of the trading pavilions promised to deal with the illegal trade at the market, as well as with the influence of the diaspora on trade.
📌Once again, we can see that Russian markets live by their own rules and laws, imposed by migrants. In addition to the criminal relations that arise in the markets, their territory often becomes places for the sale of illegal substances and items, as well as centers for the spread of extremism. That is why, when carrying out reforms of migration legislation, limiting the participation of migrants in wholesale and retail trade should be given special attention.

📝Terrorist Attack in Balashikha📝
What is known so far
This morning in the Moscow suburb of Balashikha, an explosion of a vehicle killed the Deputy Head of the Main Operations Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Yaroslav Moskalik. According to the investigation, an IED was planted in the car and remotely detonated as the officer was exiting the building. The device was filled with shrapnel.
📌Yaroslav Moskalik was characterized as one of the most competent and demanding officers in the Main Operations Directorate. He was not liked - yes. Because he demanded results and constantly reprimanded his subordinates.
As rumored in the corridors, in one of the scenarios for personnel changes in the General Staff, Moskalik was considered a potential head of the National Defense Control Center - primarily due to his systemic approach and thoughtfulness.
❗️The modus operandi of the terrorist attack is similar to the assassination attempt on Igor Kirillov. Given the level of the target and the method of execution, there is almost no doubt about the involvement of the Ukrainian special services.
Moreover, the assassination attempt occurred on the day of Putin's negotiations with Trump's special envoy Steve Whitkoff. The terrorist attack will surely become one of the topics in the discussion about the real "negotiability" of the Kyiv regime.

📝Zelenskyy Again Against Peace📝
It seems that Ben Shapiro is already short on money for buying YouTube views and boosting on Facebook, so he decided to use a foolproof option and provide a platform for another provocative statement from the president of the so-called Ukraine.
➡️In a new interview, Zelenskyy again reiterated his intention to achieve peace through force and confirmed his unwillingness to make any concessions as part of the negotiations.
And this was done on the same day that Trump openly stated that he is irritated by Zelenskyy's attempts to influence the negotiation process through loud statements in the media (although Trump does the same thing).
📌But in general, it would be strange to expect anything else. Despite the fact that Zelenskyy's statements once again strengthen Russia's position as the only negotiating party, the Kyiv regime sees the war to the last Ukrainian as the only chance to stay in power, and the British sponsors still see benefit in this, even if it means doing without US support.
Moreover, with the launch of annual contracts for men under the "18-24" system, resources will be available for some time. For now.

📝The Hunt for Dodik 📝
Why are they provoking the Republika Srpska to resist?
Last night, SIPA Bosnian security service officers tried to detain the President of Republika Srpska in East Sarajevo.
Milorad Dodik was waiting at the Administrative Center of the Government of Republika Srpska, but the MoI officers accompanying the president did not allow him to be served an arrest warrant.
🖍The media of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina are already publishing articles with loud headlines about an "armed rebellion" allegedly organized by the Serbs. At the same time, despite the fact that Milorad Dodik is now indeed guarded by heavily armed security forces, footage from the scene indicates a purely peaceful resolution of yesterday's incident without the use of force.
🚩But the incident itself and the reaction to it can hardly be considered accidental. The Balkan Gossip @balkanossiper had previously warned about the development by the Intelligence and Security Agency of BiH of a plan for the forcible detention of the President of Republika Srpska.
🏳️ Moreover, Milorad Dodik himself last week warned about the transfer of British military personnel to organize an assassination attempt on him to the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. What is important to understand: Dodik was supposed to be killed under the pretext of resisting arrest.
The security services of Republika Srpska have already received an unambiguous message from their British partners that the "civilized" Western world reserves the right to eliminate an unwanted president if his security tries to offer armed resistance during the arrest.
❗️Apparently, their political defeat after the Interpol's refusal to issue an international arrest warrant for Dodik in Sarajevo decided to compensate with a more radical method.
