⚓️🔥 Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) has released footage of drone strikes on a Russian naval vessel.

The video shows the ship engulfed in heavy flames after the first strike. The SBU did not disclose the date of the attack, the vessel's name, or its class.

⚡️ Following their meeting with President Zelenskyy in London, the leaders of the UK, France, and Germany issued a statement outlining conditions to Russia's war.

These include a ceasefire, using the current frontline as a basis for negotiations, establishing legally binding security guarantees, maintaining the freeze on Russian assets pending compensation, and ensuring European security interests are upheld in coordination with the EU and NATO.

These are the indicative estimates of Russia’s combat losses as of June 9, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

“NATO is not a threat to Russia. Russia is a threat to world peace. We would like nothing more than a peaceful relationship with Russia. We demand that Russia return to respecting international law & withdraw its troops from Ukraine.”

Peggio di Trump ci sono solo i suoi uomini di governo, costretti a usare le stesse bugie.

Lo speaker repubblicano della Camera, Mike Johnson, risponde così al giornalista che gli chiede quali prove ci siano per dire che le elezioni in California sono truccate: «Alcuni di questi sforzi sono così diabolici e così a monte che è impossibile dimostrarli. Ma penso che tutti sappiano istintivamente che c'è qualcosa che non va».

The North Korean regime has enriched itself from the war in Ukraine — Russia’s invasion has become a gold mine for Kim Jong Un

South Korean intelligence estimates that North Korea may have earned up to $14 billion from Russia’s war against Ukraine.

According to intelligence agencies, Pyongyang received the money through arms supplies and the deployment of troops to Russia. The sums are comparable to the country’s annual GDP.

Part of the transactions is not in cash, but in technology and equipment.

Cooperation with Russia and China has given North Korea access to technology, trade, and markets despite sanctions.

The WSJ reports that the country has emerged from the crisis years of the pandemic and is showing economic growth.

Pyongyang is undergoing large-scale construction projects and introducing new services and digital systems.

However, this has had little impact on the lives of ordinary North Koreans — they remain poor and deprived of rights, as before.

🇪🇺 Kallas said that Russia’s losses of from sanctions have already reached 1.5 trillion dollars.

But Brussels will not stop and plans to significantly expand the list of entities that will be hit. Kallas promised new sanctions.

They will apply to the following categories:

🔹 Russian military-industrial complex enterprises;
🔹 persons responsible for human rights violations;
🔹 Kremlin propagandists.

Fuel shortages and price spikes are rapidly spreading throughout Russia.

24 regions are reporting problems, 22 have imposed restrictions, and farmers report a 35% increase in fuel prices in 2 months.

And more drone sanctions are coming. It will keep getting worse.

A lot worse.

[Roman Sheremeta 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @rshereme]

Russia has now lost four elections in a row: in Romania, Moldova, Hungary, and now Armenia.

What's more, no one expected the margin in Armenia to be so large. This suggests that Armenians have lost faith in Russia and are distancing themselves from it.

I do not believe Russia will take military action against Armenia. The military base poses no threat, and Russia itself is exhausted by the war it is waging against Ukraine.

Through its heroic resistance, Ukraine is also giving other nations and states a chance to break free from Russia.

I believe Georgia may be next in attempting to remove pro-Russian forces.

Armenia's break with Russia will strengthen Turkey and its influence in the region. That is good news.

In addition, sources believe that the defeat in Armenia could be used by the Kremlin to oust the so-called "Armenian lobby" within the Russian leadership: to weaken, remove its members from office, and cut them off from financial flows.

The main names mentioned are Mikhail Mishustin, Russian prime minister, and Sergey Lavrov, Russian foreign minister.

Russia continues to lose ground and its influence.
