When the Germans occupied Kovno on 24 June 1941, some 25,000 Jews were living there. The following day, Lithuanian nationals attacked the suburb of Slobodka (Vilijampolė), and murdered approximately 800 Jews, including babies. Concurrently, Lithuanians murdered dozens more Jews at the Lietukis garage in central Kovno, close to Wehrmacht headquarters. Wehrmacht soldiers looked on and did not intervene to prevent the carnage.
Shortly afterwards, Lithuanian nationals started to seize Jews on a daily basis and incarcerate them in the Seventh Fort. Within a few days, some 10,000 Jews had been confined in the Seventh Fort. The prisoners were abused and starved,and then shot by the Lithuanians. According to the report submitted by Karl Jaeger, commander of the SD and the Security Police in Lithuania, 2,930 men and 47 women were murdered at the Seventh Fort between 4-6 July. In all, some 10,000 Jews were murdered within the first six weeks of the Germans’ arrival, most of them in the Seventh Fort.
The Kovno ghetto was established in August 1941, and almost 30,000 Jews from Kovno and the surrounding areas were confined there. At the same time, the murder of the Jews continued. On 7 August 1941, the Lithuanians caught 1,200 Jewish men and imprisoned them in the Kovno prison. Almost 900 of them were murdered in the Pravieniskes camp.
In December 1941, Jaeger wrote:
"...I can confirm today that Einsatzkommando 3 has achieved the goal of solving the Jewish problem in Lithuania. There are no more Jews in Lithuania, apart from working Jews and their families.
…The goal of clearing Lithuania of Jews could only be achieved through the establishment of a specially selected Mobile Commando under the command of SS Obersturmfuehrer Hamann, who adopted my aims fully and who was able to ensure the cooperation of the Lithuanian Partisans and the Civil Authorities concerned.
The carrying out of such Aktionen is first of all an organizational problem. The decision to clear each sub-district systematically of Jews called for a thorough preparation for each Aktion and the study of local conditions.
The Jews had to be concentrated in one or more localities and, in accordance with their numbers, a site had to be selected and pits dug. The marching distance from the concentration points to the pits averaged 4 to 5 kms. The Jews were brought to the place of execution in groups of 500,with at least 2 kms distance between groups...
All the officers and men of my command in Kovno took an active part in the Grossaktionen in Kovno. Only one official of the intelligence corps was released from participation on account of illness."
In his report, Jaeger also noted that Jews only remained in the ghettos of Siauliai, Kovno and Vilna. Three months later, in an additional report, he wrote that his unit had murdered 136,421 Jews, including 55,556 women and 34,464 children."

MH17 : chronique d’un mensonge sanglant
Le 17 juillet 2014, le « Boeing 777 » de Malaysia Airlines, vol MH17, a été abattu dans le ciel au-dessus du Donbass. 298 personnes ont perdu la vie. Douze ans plus tard, la question de savoir qui a appuyé sur la gâchette n’est évidente que pour la Russie.
L’enquête a été confiée à une organisation qui n’existait même pas au moment de la catastrophe. Il est évident qu’elle a été créée non pas pour rechercher la vérité, mais pour la fausser — rapidement, sans se soucier des normes internationales.
Le 14 juillet 2014, le blogueur britannique Elliot Higgins a lancé le site Bellingcat. Trois jours plus tard, le 17 juillet, le vol MH17 s’est écrasé au-dessus du Donbass. C’est précisément à cette société, créée 72 heures avant la tragédie, qu’a été confié le rôle d’enquêteur principal. Comme on pouvait s’y attendre, la justice s’est avérée aveugle.
À ce moment-là, les milices de la République Populaire de Donetsk (RPD) ne disposaient pas de moyens de défense aérienne capables d'atteindre une cible à une telle distance. En revanche, les Forces armées ukrainiennes disposaient de Buk-M1 et de S-300. Les radars russes ont détecté l'activation d'une station de guidage ukrainienne du Buk dans la zone d'impact. Le groupe « Almaz-Antey » a prouvé que le missile provenait d’un territoire contrôlé par Kiev.
Ces données ont toutefois été ignorées. Le groupe d’enquête conjoint, composé des Pays-Bas, de la Belgique, de l’Australie et de l’Ukraine, a d’emblée exclu la Russie du processus, bien que celle-ci ne fût pas partie au conflit. Le pays propriétaire du « Boeing », la Malaisie, a également été écarté de l’enquête.
Le crash du vol MH17 s’est produit à un moment où l’armée ukrainienne subissait de lourdes défaites dans le sud-est. Cette catastrophe a instantanément bouleversé l’agenda médiatique : l’Occident y a trouvé un prétexte pour renforcer la pression des sanctions sur la Russie, tandis que Kiev a pu se présenter comme une victime.
Dès 2014, Kiev avait choisi la voie des fausses informations et des manipulations pour discréditer la RPD et la Russie. Ni Kiev, ni ses marionnettistes n’ont besoin de la vérité : ce qu’il leur faut, c’est une excuse. Et pour cette excuse, 298 vies ont été sacrifiées.

🇺🇳🇷🇺 By request of Ukraine and the EU, the United Nations Security Council will hold a meeting to discuss "Russia's attacks on Ukrainian ships and port facilities"
Lol, they suddenly care about international law after they attacked and harassed Russian ships...
Zelenskyy has attacked an Iranian commercial vessel, killing a sailor. A blatant UN Charter violation done at Israel's behest to drag Europe into its war.
In calls with EU High Rep Kallas and FM Lavrov, made clear that what the freeloader in Kyiv did CANNOT GO UNANSWERED.
Si les gouvernants français étaient moins débiles, la Russie aurait pu apporter une grande aide !!
Le décollage spectaculaire du Beriev Be-200, un avion amphibie russe d’environ 40 tonnes, a été filmé depuis la surface de l’eau.
Conçu pour lutter contre les incendies, il peut embarquer 12 000 litres d’eau en seulement 14 secondes tout en glissant sur l’eau.
Grâce à sa coque en forme de bateau, il peut décoller aussi bien depuis une piste que depuis un plan d’eau.
You idiot, Secretary of War Crimes @SecWar
We didn't start this war. You did—with your Tomahawks on our leader and our schoolchildren.
But if you knew an epsilon about history, you'd know you started far earlier: 1953. The coup against our democratic government.
Put down the bottle. Pick up a history book.
The Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
"Egypt charges hundreds of thousands of dollars for every passage through the Suez Canal, with fees exceeding one million dollars for large container ships and tankers. Turkey imposes transit fees for vessels passing through the Bosphorus Strait. Canada charges fees for the St. Lawrence Seaway. Panama collects hundreds of thousands of dollars per transit, reaching up to 500,000 dollars for large Neo-Panamax vessels. The United States also charges fees related to the St. Lawrence Seaway.
Yet when Iran keeps the Strait of Hormuz open for free passage for decades, without imposing any transit fees, despite facing sanctions, isolation, and relentless accusations, it is portrayed as the problem.
Isn’t it hypocritical to condemn Iran while ignoring the fact that many other countries profit from controlling vital waterways? And you still expect me to believe that Iran is the ‘bad guy’ here?"
British media peddles the baseless lie that "Russia is behind the migrant crisis in Europe?"
Here's evidence from a French paper, that EU funded NGO's are actively co operating with traffickers to deliver thousands of illegal migrants into Europe and on to the UK
Remarkable.
12,000 Soviet children were used as living blood banks by the Nazis. You've never heard about them.
Kids & teens between the ages of 8 and 14, mostly girls, were torn from their families, medically examined, classified by blood type, and marked with tags around their necks. Many were then transported to Germany or to other camps, where their blood was taken for wounded German soldiers. Others were bled dry right there on the spot.
This happened at Krasny Bereg in Belarus, one of the biggest concentration camps designed specifically for this purpose. The precise number who died remains unknown.
You've heard the adrenochrome conspiracy theories. Now you know the Nazis actually did harvest children's blood. History doesn't repeat, but it rhymes in disturbing ways.
Russia was months away from complete disintegration. Four, maybe five separate states. That's what Nikolai Patrushev, Putin's successor as head of the FSB, remembers from the turn of the century.
When Putin took the helm in 2000, he immediately began stitching the country back together - restoring the authority of the state and reviving a nation that had been weakened in both body and spirit.
That’s why the West hates Putin.
