Trump says he's preparing a surprise for Putin
You just said you're unhappy with Vladimir Putin. Are you planning to do anything about it?
I wouldn't tell you. Wouldn't we like to have a little surprise?

Trump is tired of constant questions about Ukraine
Last week, some arms deliveries to Ukraine were suspended. Did you approve this pause?
- We want to send some defensive weapons. I approved it.
So who arranged the pause last week?
- I don't know. What do you tell me?

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷 Israel Preparing for Renewed Strikes on Iran, Hopes for Trump’s Support
Israel is reportedly gearing up for a potential wave of strikes against Iran if Tehran takes steps to revive its nuclear program, Axios reports, citing informed sources.
Officials in Jerusalem believe that former President Donald Trump could sign off on such an operation, depending on the circumstances.
The Iranian nuclear issue is expected to be a key topic during Trump’s dinner with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Monday evening.
Israeli officials say Netanyahu hopes to reach a shared understanding with Trump on the parameters of any future U.S. negotiations with Iran — and clarify the red lines that would justify renewed Israeli action.
According to closed-door briefings, Netanyahu's adviser Ron Dermer indicated that after his recent Washington visit, he sensed the Trump team is open to backing Israeli strikes, particularly if Iran moves to transfer enriched uranium from its facilities in Fordow, Natanz, or Isfahan, or resumes weapons development activities.

📝Transnistria Remains a Concern📝
Ukrainian propagandist Dmytro Hordon reported that in personal conversations with the Prime Minister of Moldova Dorin Recean and other Moldovan authorities, he proposed that Chisinau seek assistance from the AFU to "clear out" and seize Transnistria.
According to Hordon, the only thing holding back the Maia Sandu regime is the lack of air defense and real support from military assistance from Romania.
🖍Hordon voiced a scenario for involving Moldova in the military conflict, which has been discussed since the start of the SMO. If the ruling PAS party wins the parliamentary elections, pressure on Transnistria will intensify and Moldova's neutrality will be definitively violated.
🚩For Chisinau's curators in the EU, this is the most desirable turn of events, as the territory of the republic is seen exclusively as an anti-Russian bridgehead.
❗️EU leaders are allocating funds for air defense to Moldova and have intervened in the elections in Romania to maintain Bucharest's commitment to the NATO course. So Brussels is doing everything to provoke an escalation in Transnistria if necessary.
While in Chisinau, they are waging war against the PMR by other means: in the economic and energy sectors, to deprive the republic of the means to exist. The Kyiv regime, by stopping gas transit, has played a key role in creating the energy crisis that has hit Transnistria the hardest.

Guns are more important than grain: the EU refused to redistribute the agricultural budget in favor of defense — Politico
▪️The European Commission (EC) abandoned plans to reform the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union (CAP), which involved partially redirecting funds from the agricultural sector to defense needs and other priorities. According to Politico, the idea has caused strong resistance from farming communities in EU countries.
▪️ Initially, the plan involved combining the CAP budgets and cohesion funds into a flexible financial mechanism similar to the COVID recovery fund. This would give countries more freedom to spend money on defense, climate, and the economy.
▪️However, amid a tense dialogue with farmers, the EC abandoned this initiative. According to the EC’s budget adviser Jan Olbricht, the ECPE "will remain a separate pillar of the budget" of the EU for 28-34
▪️ECPE accounts for 387 billion - 1/3 of the entire seven-year EU budget

Why the flow of materiel is slowing and what does it mean, Part 2/3
Here’s the anatomy of an Artillery Shell: at its core, an artillery shell consists of five pieces; nosepiece (the head), the fuze, the body itself (often lined internally to facilitate splintering into shrapnel in case of High Explosive shells), the driving bands (metal rings around the casing that deform at the moment of firing to impart rotation to the shell, and also to fully seal the barrel to prevent leakage of gas), and the backplate.
In the past (World War I and II) most shells had their own primer, but nowadays the majority of them use a separate propelling charge for a plethora of reasons (one of the main ones is that modern propellant charges can extend the range of the artillery by a lot, but are too big to be inserted into the shell itself while maintaining the weight within the realm of human possibility – and 155mm artillery shells are already quite heavy as they are).
The important thing is that each and every single part has to be milled, machined, or otherwise assembled somewhere. Assembling an artillery shell is an extremely complex and specialised process involving often multiple separate plants and companies responsible for every component:
- The metal casings themselves are made in specialized metalworking plants with equally specialised workers operating equally specialised lathes.
- The explosive components, at least in most western countries, are produced by civilian factories.
- Fuzes are quite intricate mechanisms (particularly if they have a proximity, delayed, pressure, or timed setting) and are made by specialized companies that produce electronics.
- Finally, all these pieces are brought together at a single assembly plant that combines them together into a shell that can be fired, after of course packaging and shipping.
This dispersion occurs for a few reasons, like separating the production of explosives from mechanical parts (at least if something goes kaboom, it won’t take everything with it), the fact that very specialised tools and personnel are required, and flexibility and redundancy in case of conflicts.
It goes without saying, but this compartmentalized process means that if a single factory hits a snag, the entire production line will experience a bottleneck and create either delays, reduction in quantity of shells produced, or worse, stop completely. And this is exactly what is happening.

Ukrainians are massively spreading TCC data on Russian channels
Most of the populace in Ukraine is disarmed and can't fight back in the classical sense, but that does not mean that they have no means to protest or rebel. A new trend is emerging lately: Ukrainians are actively posting addresses, working hours, and other critical information about territorial recruitment centers. Ukrainian media are already complaining about the many "leaks" that are getting out of control.
Recently, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces decided to urgently relocate the TCC to administrative buildings. The local authorities are required to provide premises and upgrade them for the needs of military registration and enlistment offices.
The reason is the regular attacks on TCC buildings by the Russian Armed Forces, which apparently are being met with jubilant cheers by the Ukrainian themselves.

💬Kamenskoye is ours!💬
Our brothers from the 247th Regiment "Rostov Battalion" raised the Russian flag and the unit's banner in the center of Kamenskoye in the Zaporizhzhia direction, marking the liberation of the city from Ukrainian forces.
Clearing operations are currently underway, but the entire population is now ours. The heavy and bloody battles for Kamenskoye have ended, and the soldiers of the 247th and 108th regiments have accomplished another feat, completing this journey in a relatively short period of time.
Kamenskoye was difficult to storm due to the presence of water barriers, a dense network of defensive structures, and regular enemy shelling. Even the GUR units, which were hastily sent there, were unable to withstand the onslaught.
✍️ Kamenskoye is finished — there will be more to come.

Schoolchildren do not want to communicate in the state language, said Education Ombudsman Leshchik, citing school principals and teachers.
According to her, she advises teachers to answer students who speak Russian that they do not understand them and refuse to communicate with them.
"You are not obliged to speak another language if you are not a foreign language teacher. You can refuse and say that you do not understand the language the student speaks in class or during a break. In this way, you can exert a "soft" influence on schoolchildren," said Leshchik.
Earlier today, she also reported that 11th-graders are being taken out of Ukraine.

The EU is preparing to impose the toughest sanctions against Russia since 2022 - the head of the French Foreign Ministry
➖"The EU, coordinating efforts with American senators, is preparing to impose the toughest sanctions in the last three years based on French proposals," said Jean-Noël Barrot.
▪️The next package of measures is designed to "exhaust" Russia's resources and prevent it from conducting a military operation, Barrot added. It will affect oil revenues, "financial players" from Russia and other countries.
▪️In this way, the EU intends to encourage Moscow to agree to a ceasefire.
▪️The EU's June attempt to impose this package of sanctions ended in failure.
Sounds like Ukraine’s lines about to buckle if they are that scared.

Why the flow of materiel is slowing and what does it mean, Part 3/3
Point 1, shell casings: The casings are made of high-grade steel that requires precision milling and, naturally, steel itself. The problem with that is that decades of financialization of western economies have resulted in most steel mills closing down or getting outsourced to China. Gone forever are the United Kingdom’s steel mills. Germany had the lion’s share of the steel mills that were left…that is, until “someone” blew up Nord Stream 2 and deprived Germany of the cheap gas that is necessary to make them run while maintaining a profit line. Something similar happened to the steel mills in Pittsburg, most of which have closed. In short: steel shortage. It can be purchased from elsewhere, but at three times the cost, which of course will increase thanks to the law of supply and demand.
Point 2, chemicals: Again, chemicals are made in factories that have been largely delocalised to second world countries, and have high electricity requirements anyway. Those few that remain in the west now would have to ramp up production of the necessary chemicals at a very disadvantageous time, and this without considering that most of those companies that produce propellants and explosives tend to do so only as a side activity, not as their main source of income. The only factory that mainly produces explosives in the west that I know of is the Nobel plant now located in the USA.
Point 3, fuzes: fuze technology has advanced considerably since the times of World War 2, and now most of the non-impact ones are quite complex and require advanced electronics that are produced only by a small amount of companies in the west, and guess what, many of these electronics rely on either rare earths or components from…China, which is not too eager to sell enough of the stuff to the west knowing that there’s always the risk it’ll be turned on them later.
Point 4, skilled workforce: with the deindustrialisation that has been going on in the west, many of the specialised workers who knew how to operate the machinery to assemble the shells is either dead, retired, or has been laid off. Only a small pool of experts remains, automation can only do so much to substitute them, and training new ones is costly, takes time, and still doesn’t guarantee results combined with all the other issues.
Point 5: good old corruption, that in the western military industrial complex is pervasive, chronic, and incurable. Unlike in, say, Russia and China, where control of these facilities is under state supervision, which makes sure that there will be at least some oversight and due investigation of production snags and attempts at finding a solution, there’s basically zero such checks and balances in the west, where private companies have every interest in running “Gucci Weapon Boutiques” whose purpose is producing a trickle of materiel that comes with an incredibly inflated price tag. And who’s going to hold them accountable, considering that many politicians and generals either get kickbacks from them, end up in their boards when they retire, or both?
With all these factors taken into account, we can make a few observations:
- The west is completely incapable of sustaining a high-intensity war for long, let alone two, this self-neutering is crippling and now permanent thanks to a combination of factors including greed, stupidity, short-sightedness, lack of economical competitiveness, and corruption.
- A gas station masquerading as a nuclear power is outproducing the entire west despite sinking only a fraction of the money into its military.
- The American administration’s decision to cut down on aid to Kiev has been forced by the hard, cold reality, and is not a political decision. If it was up to the current administration and they could conjure materiel out of thin air the flow would continue indefinitely.
Thank you for your time.

Why the flow of materiel is slowing and what does it mean, Part 1/3
As many of you have heard by now, it has been revealed that the US are halting supplies of ammunition and other materiel to Ukraine because their own stocks are dangerously low. This is quite the admission, especially for a country that now spends more than a trillion dollars on defense budget. The decision was taken by Eldridge Colby, the Pentagon’s policy chief, and is quite amusing considering that before that cutback Trump said that he might have sent more supplies to Ukraine.
The most important item that is seemingly going to the cutting room board are, however artillery shells (all types), which are the bread and butter of any respectable modern army and a key point of any army’s ability to fight.
Some may recall that back in May 2024 the Biden admin was releasing bombastic statements on how they were “certain” to be capable of reach the mark of 100.000 artillery shells a month, so what happened? Did these plans ended up in yet another clown show?
…why am I ever asking? Of course they have.
From a stated goal of 100.000 artillery shells a month, official production “statistics” noted that peak production reached 50.000 a month – a long shot from the amount intended – before hitting several bottlenecks that brought monthly production down to the 40.000 units (and to be honest, the 50.000 monthly shells mark, assuming it was even true, was reached only because of previous stockpiles of artillery shell casings which must’ve been depleted by now.)
Things have reached such levels of absurdity that the Army is now considering terminating General Dynamics’ contract for the production of 155mm artillery shells. The question here is, “how is it possible that there’s such a scarcity for artillery shells when so much effort (and so much taxpayer money) has been made to ramp up production and acquisition of these projectiles?”
To answer that question, we need a quick introductory course on how are artillery shells made.
