Putin’s Russia in the 21st century: The “second-best army in the world” has run out of fuel, and steam locomotives have been hauled out of the motherland’s reserves. 😂😂😂
Soon, they will likely be unpacking airships and horse-drawn carriages from the 1920s. The return to the USSR—so lauded by “patriots”—is proceeding at breakneck speed.

BREAKING:
Ukraine launches yet another massive drone swarm attack against Russia.
Again, the main targets are Moscow, southern Russia and Russian-occupied Crimea.
🤡 Putin calls Ukrainian strikes on Russia "terrorist acts"
According to the dictator, Ukraine is "retreating along the entire front line," so it has "switched to open terrorist actions."
The man who started a full-scale war against his neighbor 4+ years ago is now upset about the consequences.
Classic Kremlin logic.
To the defenders of our skies.
The country below you is free because you keep it that way. Every flight, every mission, every return home — that's sovereignty.
Ukraine holds because you hold the sky. 🇺🇦

Zelensky's powerful message: "The Lavra stands. Saint Sophia stands. That means Kyiv stands. Ukraine stands — and it will endure."
On Ukraine's Constitution Day, the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra hosted, for the first time, a joint prayer bringing together priests from different regions of the country, including those whose churches were damaged or destroyed by Russian strikes.
Among them were clergy who survived Russian captivity, defended Mariupol, baptized soldiers at Azovstal, evacuated children from occupied Kherson, and continue serving their communities despite the war.
"Truth always prevails," Zelensky said.
First closer videos of the burning refinery in Slavyansk-on-Kuban, Krasnodar region, in Russia, and as expected it is total carnage. There are several independent fires raging, especially in the silo farm, but also other parts of the refinery are completely on fire.
Russia’s oil keeps burning after yesterday’s Ukrainian drone strikes on the main refinery in the Krasnodar Krai region.
Most of the gasoline sold in Crimea used to come from that refinery.
It’s will take the Russians some time to rebuild it. And then it will be hit again…
Ukrainian defenders marked Constitution Day with precision.
Overnight, long-range sanctions reached two Russian oil refineries — Slavyansk in Krasnodar, ~300 km out, and one in Yaroslavl region, ~700 km from our border.
Every strike weakens Russia's war machine — and brings peace closer.
Today, as we mark 🇺🇦's Constitution Day, we honour the resilience & determination of the Ukrainian people. Despite Russia's brutal aggression, Ukrainians stand firm in defending their sovereignty, democracy, justice & our shared European future – enshrined in 🇺🇦's Constitution.
Our warriors began Ukraine’s Constitution Day with great accuracy. Last night, our long-range sanctions reached two oil refineries in Russia. The Slavyansk oil refinery in the Krasnodar region was hit – about 300 kilometers from the frontline. We also reached a refinery in the Yaroslavl region, approximately 700 kilometers from our border.
We continue our operations that weaken Russia’s ability to wage this war. Each of our long-range sanctions means fewer resources serving Russia’s war machine, and another step toward peace. We will continue to respond to Russian terror. I thank our warriors for these results! I am grateful to everyone who helps us. Everyone who defends Ukraine also upholds the power of the Constitution.
Celebrating the 107th anniversary of the Lithuanian Riflemen's Union!
With the mission to serve, cherish, love, protect our country, and, if necessary, to defend it, the Union was founded on June 27, 1919.

Today, no one on Earth can say that we are not fighting for Crimea or that we have forgotten about Crimea. Every day proves that Ukraine remembers every part of its land, every one of its people, and is truly fighting to ensure justice for our entire state and every integral part of it.
Russia brought its war to Ukraine, starting nowhere other than Crimea, and now, with our actions – medium-range sanctions against the Russian occupier, our long-range sanctions plan, and all other forms of pressure on the aggressor – we are doing everything to force Russia to end the war and restore justice. And it is Crimea that is at the center of this policy of ensuring justice. Russia turned Crimea into a launchpad for aggressive operations against other parts of our country and against other nations. For a very long time, Russia has tried to normalize its war – to make Ukraine, all of Europe, and the world accept that its aggression supposedly cannot be stopped and that justice supposedly cannot be restored.
Today, Ukraine is depriving Russia of this launchpad and drawing a line under its attempts to normalize war. And in doing so, we remember that justice for Ukraine also means justice for the Crimean Tatar people – a people forced to endure deportation and decades of oppression, a people who were able to return to their homeland, but whose home the Russians tried to steal again, a people who have preserved their vitality and remain an inseparable part of our society.
Today, as we honor the blue banner with the golden tamğa – this proud flag that unites the entire Crimean Tatar people – we affirm that Ukraine is fighting for itself and all its lands, defending justice for itself and all its people – for everyone who calls Ukraine and our Crimea their home. We must stop Russian aggression. We must bring freedom back to all those who are currently in Russian captivity. We must guarantee security and a reliable peace for the entirety of our state and all our people.
Qırımtatar Milliy Bayraq künü hayırlı olsun!
Glory to Ukraine!
Russian military personnel supported the Russian soldier Alexander Lunin, who demanded a meeting with Putin, threatening a military coup.

In his statement, he described alleged widespread abuses in the military — including torture, punishment for refusing orders, “eliminations,” and mysterious disappearances of soldiers.
