A Ukrainian drone strike targeted a Russian military truck along the Mariupol–Berdiansk highway, a key segment of Russia’s land corridor to Crimea.
The first drone failed, but a second drone successfully struck the vehicle moments later.
‼️ Kreml próbuje usunąć z internetu nagranie, na którym Władimir Putin pokracznie wykrzykuje "ura" budząc poważne wątpliwości co do swojej trzeźwości. Film zniknął już z rosyjskich agencji prasowych. Na naszym profilu pozostanie, więc częstujcie się 😂
❗️Airbus has conducted a test flight of its new UAV interceptor Do-DT25 at a military training ground in northern Germany.
The drone is armed with four Estonian Frankenburg Mark 1 missiles with a range of 1.5–2 km, designed to destroy large UAVs of the Shahed type.
#Airbus just proved you don’t need a $1M missile to kill a $20K drone.
Their Bird of Prey..... a modified Do-DT25.... flew its maiden demo yesterday, autonomously hunted a kamikaze target, and fired a Frankenburg Mk1.
Specs: 2.5 m span, 3.1 m long, 160 kg, four (soon eight) ultra-light missiles (65 cm / <2 kg / 1.5 km / EO fire-and-forget).
Nine months from kick off to first air to air kill. Cost per shot drops dramatically compared to traditional SHORAD. #Drones
“I’m always at your service”: leaked calls between Lavrov and Hungary’s FM
Recordings of conversations between Sergey Lavrov and Péter Szijjártó suggest the Hungarian minister was willing to advance Moscow’s interests within the EU.
In one call, Lavrov asks for sanctions on oligarch Alisher Usmanov’s sister to be lifted — Szijjártó responds that Hungary, together with Slovakia, is already preparing a proposal.
She was later removed from the EU sanctions list.
Before ending the call, Szijjártó also mentioned visiting Gazprom’s new headquarters and added: “I’m always at your service.”
According to European intelligence officials, the tone of the exchanges resembles that of a “handler and source” rather than two equal officials.
There have also been previous reports that Hungary shared details of closed EU discussions with Moscow.
"Two cannibals live in a pipe among gnawed corpses... they say they are sending them for evacuation, but they themselves eat them like marshmallows..."
❗️🇩🇪Rheinmetall has shown new footage of its Skyranger air defense system mounted on a Leopard 1 chassis. It is reported that 🇺🇦Ukraine will also receive such air defense systems

🚨 Journalist Who Mocked Zelensky Now Claims He’s Being Harassed 🚨
Brian Glenn, the Trump-aligned journalist who publicly mocked Zelensky’s appearance during the White House clash, now says he’s facing “thousands of death threats” and has hired security (The Hill).
💬 “I have police at my house. People are saying they’ll find me and hurt me.”
Glenn doubled down, comparing Zelensky’s casual attire to Elon Musk’s:
🔹 "Musk saves taxpayers billions, Zelensky got $300B—he should show respect."
📌 Who is Glenn? A staunch Trump loyalist and partner of Marjorie Taylor Greene, a conspiracy-peddling congresswoman known for her anti-Ukraine stance.
⚡ A real threat—or just playing the victim?
‼️RUSSIAN WAR CRIME‼️
24th November 2024, Russian bastards executed 5 Ukrainian soldiers near the village of Novodarivka, Zaporizhzhia region.
After a massive artillery shelling, 6 AFU soldiers were forced to surrender. After receiving the information, they shot five soldiers and captured one more.
They are just freaks and non-humans. I simply cannot understand those people who propose to negotiate with these creatures. It is impossible to negotiate with terrorists for whom human life means nothing. They only understand power.
Eternal memory to the heroes. My condolences to the families 😔
@front_ukrainian While I strongly support Ukraine's integration into the EU, I think it's too optimistic to expect it to happen within 5 years. However, anything is possible until proven otherwise.😀
I recommend reading through. The overall picture is very telling.
‼️ Bankruptcies, losses, and optimization of the largest and most important enterprises and banks are happening in Russia.
In 2025, Russians will face a new series of losses and bankruptcies. The reason is not only sanctions restrictions but also growing problems inside Russia.
◾️ Rusal, one of the world's largest aluminum producers, announced the start of production optimization - it will be reduced by 250 thousand tons in the first stage. The company explained the decision of optimization by "record prices for raw materials and high risks of a continued negative macroeconomic environment."
◾️ Major Russian mining and metals company Mechel announced the suspension of one of its enterprises - Olzherasskaya-Novaya mine in Mezhdurechensk. The reason is problems with the sales market.
◾️ Major Russian corporation PJSC Gazprom made a record net loss of $6.1 billion in 2023, becoming Russia's most unprofitable company for the first time in 25 years.
◾️ ALROSA (Russian group of diamond mining companies) reduced its revenue under Russian Accounting Standards (RAS) by 30% and net profit by 3 times in 9 months. The net loss amounted to 6.5 billion rubles ($62,7 million).
◾️ Baltika brewing company is among the top ten most unprofitable companies in Russia in 2024. In 2022, the company's revenue was about 100 billion rubles ($965 million). In 2023, the net loss was 28.1 billion rubles ($271,1 million). The option of filling the budget by nationalizing profitable private enterprises has failed.
◾️ PJSC KAMAZ's net loss for the first nine months of 2024 amounted to 3.8 billion rubles ($36,6 million) against a profit of 15.8 billion rubles ($152,4 million) for the same period last year, according to financial statements published on the company's website.
◾️ AvtoVAZ automobile manufacturing company is talking about possible bankruptcy and debts of over 100 billion rubles ($965 million). This is due to the increase of the Russian key rate.
◾️ Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin is going to classify data on Russian oil exports and the production volumes of Russian refineries ostensibly to protect Russia's national interests from "unfriendly actions" by the USA and other Western countries. In reality, it is to hide the crisis in this field.
◾️ Sanctions were imposed on Gazprombank, the major bank, and fifty other banks. Sanctions were also imposed against the Russian System for Transfer of Financial Messages (SPFS, sort of Russian analog of the international SWIFT messaging system).
