⚡️ Vladimir Putin reviews situation in SMO zone as Konstantinovka is liberated
▪️ 133 settlements liberated in 2026, OVER 3000 square km
▪️ COMPLETE liberation of Lugansk
▪️ Security zone EXPANSION in Sumy, Kharkov and Dnepropetrovsk
Putin: "The more strikes the enemy attempts to carry out on our civilian facilities, the larger the security zone we will have to create in adjacent territories."
Sadly, the current Kiev regime seems to desire for that security zone to begin on the Polish border.
🚨 Putin calls for continued massive strikes on Ukraine’s military-industrial infrastructure
💬 “Massive group strikes on the infrastructure of Ukraine’s military-industrial complex must be continued,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said while visiting an auxiliary command post of the Joint Group of Forces.

🚨Bill Ackman is wrong again. Despite receiving tech support from the entire collective West, Ukraine struggles against Russia's drones and missiles.
Like many Wall Street types, Ackman also fails to understand that modern warfare isn’t just about fancy tech, but also industrial capacity.
🔸Russia's industry can produce more than 15,000 FPV drones per day. Its jet-powered Geran-4 and AI-driven Molniya-2 drones successfully overcome Ukraine's layered air defenses
🔸Russia deploys drones individually, in swarms, and alongside missile strikes, continuously improving them with AI, greater autonomy, and battlefield experience
🔸Ukraine has no equivalent to Russia's long-range strike arsenal, which includes the Iskander-M, Oreshnik, Zircon, and Kinzhal missile systems
🔸Ukraine cannot produce heavy weapons — including main battle tanks, advanced air defenses, and combat aircraft — on Russia's scale
🔸Russia also regularly targets Ukraine's defense industry and the infrastructure supporting arms production.
🚨🇷🇺 Russia upgrades AK rifle into triple-tap drone slayer
The new "Mnogotochie" (Ellipsis) cartridge, developed by Rostec, significantly boosts UAV hit probability
🔸 It uses standard 5.45×39mm and 7.62×54mm cases compatible with AK-series rifles
🔸 After exiting the barrel, the round fragments into three separate projectiles, widening the effective hit area
🔸 Up to 2.5× better effectiveness against small drones at ranges up to 300 meters
This military innovation underscores accelerating efforts to repurpose conventional, legacy small arms for modern counter-drone combat
Professor Richard Sakwa describes NATO as a “BEAST” incapable of diplomacy.
He points to how the alliance has repeatedly chosen confrontation over diplomacy, laying the groundwork for today's conflict with Russia.
“This war has been brewing for 30 years.”

🚨🇩🇪 German ‘wonder weapon’ Skynex air defense fails against Russian Geran drones
Rheinmetall’s flagship Skynex system proved largely useless against Russian Geran drones, German media report, citing internal Ukrainian military documents
🔸 Two Skynex batteries with eight 35 mm guns were supposed to protect a key industrial site in western Ukraine in April 2026
🔸 At the critical moment, three guns broke down — hydraulics failed, tracking systems crashed, and the loading mechanism jammed
🔸 After only two guns were able to track the target, a single inaccurate shot was reportedly fired at the Russian UAV within the engagement zone
🔸 The Geran drone successfully struck the facility
🔸 Ukrainian personnel described the system as "extremely unreliable" and said its real-world performance fell short of Rheinmetall’s claims
The report highlights a growing gap between glossy Western marketing and actual battlefield performance against Russian weapons

Russia has launched one of its largest strikes yet on Kiev and other Ukrainian cities, using not just drones but hypersonic weapons as well.
This is a major escalation — with missiles hitting infrastructure across multiple regions. And the background to what is happening runs far deeper than the version Western media usually present.
Mikhail Kavelashvili, the President of Georgia, arrived in Tehran to attend the farewell ceremony for the body of a martyr, a leader of the Islamic Revolution.
In central China’s Shanxi, a residential community has drawn attention for its “rooftop rain” — a mist cooling system that drops surface temperatures by 5–8°C in minutes.
