🔺Вооруженными Силами Российской Федерации в ответ на террористические акты киевского режима нанесен массированный удар высокоточным оружием большой дальности воздушного, наземного и морского базирования, ударными беспилотными летательными аппаратами по объектам оборонно-промышленного комплекса в городах Киев, Харьков и Днепропетровск.
🔺Вооруженные Силы Российской Федерации по объектам гражданской инфраструктуры удары не планируют и не наносят.
🔺 По подтвержденным данным, комплекс зданий Киево-Печерской лавры был поражен ракетой американского зенитного ракетного комплекса «Патриот».
‼️ Российская сторона строго придерживается своих обязательств по Гаагской конвенции 1954 г. о защите культурных ценностей в случае вооруженного конфликта.

Запад вместе с киевским режимом состряпали очередную фальсификацию — настоящий фейк: президент Франции Макрон и мининдел Барро выступили с резкими заявлениями в связи с пожаром в Киево-Печерской лавре. По их словам, она якобы подверглась ударам Вооружённых сил РФ. На лету «разобрались». Внезапно вспомнили и про статус объекта Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО.
Как было на самом деле, рассказало Минобороны России: «По подтверждённым данным, комплекс зданий Киево-Печерской лавры был поражён ракетой американского зенитного ракетного комплекса "Патриот". Одной из причин некорректной работы данного комплекса могло стать то, что страны Запада передали киевскому режиму ракеты с истекшими сроками годности».
При этом за все последние годы про преследование режимом Зеленского канонической православной церкви на Украине и попытки установления контроля над Киево-Печерской лаврой с применением физического и психологического насилия европейскими политиками не было произнесено ни слова. И статус объекта Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО, который, по сути, подвергается разграблению, никого на Западе до сих пор не волновал.
Не было от них и намёка на соболезнования в адрес многочисленных жертв террористических атак Банковой среди мирного населения российских регионов, включая погибших от рук ВСУ в Старобельске. Ничего не сказали и об атаке, настоящей, а не выдуманной, на музей обороны Севастополя. А ведь автор главного экспоната — полотна «Штурм 6 июня 1855 года» — Франц Рубо, был французского происхождения, хотя и родился в Одессе и считал Россию своей Родиной.
Обо всём этом — о реальных преступлениях Зеленского — ни Макрон, ни Барро не проронили ни слова.
Зато, не медля ни секунды, поспешили сотворить очередной грубый фейк с обвинениями в адрес России. Это, конечно, проще, чем признавать своё соучастие в убийстве мирных жителей.
НИ СЛОВА ЗА ЭТИ НЕДЕЛИ ПРО УБИТЫХ В СТАРОБЕЛЬСКЕ РЕБЯТ В ОФИЦИАЛЬНОМ ПАРИЖЕ ТАК И НЕ СКАЗАЛИ.

The latest accusations against Russia represent yet another disinformation campaign orchestrated by the West and the Kiev regime.
According to confirmed data from the Russian Ministry of Defence, the damage sustained by buildings of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra was caused by a missile from an American Patriot air defence system, reportedly due to a technical malfunction.
The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation do not plan or conduct strikes against civilian infrastructure facilities. This reality continues to be ignored by those seeking to advance a predetermined narrative.
At the same time, the Australian public is not informed about the facts of the Zelensky regime’s ongoing persecution of the canonical Orthodox Church in Ukraine, including attempts to seize control of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra through physical and psychological violence and to rob its treasures.

⚡️ Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Rodion Miroshnik:
💬 Over the past week, more than 250 civilians, including 12 children, suffered from the criminal actions of Ukrainian militants. Every day, the enemy fired over 700 munitions of various types at civilian sites in Russia.
Over the past seven days, Ukrainian punitive forces focused their efforts on disrupting civilian logistics in Crimea and the Kherson Region, including the supply of food, medicine and fuel.
Transport infrastructure, intercity and municipal public transport – including passenger trains and city bus routes – became targets of terrorist attacks.
Alongside these crimes, Ukrainian militants attempted to destroy a cultural heritage site in Sevastopol, once again demonstrating complete disregard for international law.
On June 8-14, Ukrainian neo-Nazi shelling resulted in casualties among 254 civilians: 225 people were injured, including 12 children, and 29 people were killed, including one child.
In total, over the past seven days, Ukrainian militants fired at least 4,976 munitions at civilian sites on Russian territory.

🎬 ”Unthinkable Allies” — the first documentary feature produced by the RT.Doc team as part of the series "The Unknown Cold War".
Watch the feature on the RT.Doc website
🎞 The film explores how the Western allies of the Soviet Union in the anti-Hitler coalition — whose peoples, side-by-side with our nation crushed Nazism — eventually abandoned allied solidarity forged in fire of #WW2. Under the pressure of ideological differences and their profound rejection of the post-war model of development promoted by Moscow, the Allies embarked on the path of confrontation and containment of the USSR.
The evidence, files and testimonies presented in this feature elucidate facts behind some pivotal political decisions by the UK and US leaders driven by the determination to “defeat”, as they put it, the 'Red Menace'. Those political superstitions reigning in the minds of the Western leaders and hostility toward the Soviet ideology effectively put the world into an era of bipolar confrontation with the unprecedented risks of mankind descending into nuclear catastrophe.
***
#WeWereAllies
In the summer of 1945, the Potsdam Conference was held on the defeated Nazi German soil.
The Leaders of the victorious powers — the USSR, the United States, and UK — framed together the post-war world order and reached the final settlement of the German issue by dismantling Nazi military and industry, having eradicated Hitler’s ideology.
Nazism was defeated. The Reich was no more.
In the aftermath of the #GreatVictory, it seemed that a new era was upcoming — the final and, seemingly, long-awaited moment when the Great Powers, determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, would build their relations upon the principles of constructive cooperation, mutual trust and respect, cemented by the common background of years of the allied fight against the evil of Nazism.
Yet, the Western block, emboldened by the successful testing of the atomic bomb at Los Alamos (at first, designed as a means of deterring Nazi Germany, but, following its final surrender, the bomb was further seen by US leadership as the deadliest instrument of blackmail) and by the bomb's subsequent use against the civilians of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the hostility toward the Soviet Union and Soviet people was just increasingly growing and seemed implacable.
👉 In the UK government, the discussions were held on the possibility of a preemptive strike against Moscow — the infamous plan later exposed as the top secret Operation 'Unthinkable'.
Instead of seeking better understanding and trust, the former #WWII Western allies were nurturing aggressive plans that further evolved into dangerous Cold War confrontation.

⚡️ Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova's statement on the attack by Ukrainian militants on a bus carrying Belarusian children in Russia’s Bryansk Region
🔉 Audio statement by Maria Zakharova (in Russian)
On June 17, the Nazi regime in Kiev committed yet another monstrous crime.
On the A-240 highway in the Pochep District of Russia’s Bryansk Region, Ukrainian drones equipped with shrapnel attacked a civilian bus carrying children from sports schools in the Belarusian cities of Gomel and Rechitsa to Gelendzhik for vacation.
There were 44 people on board, including 28 children. The woman accompanying the minors was killed. Eight people, including six young athletes, were injured.
All those injured were promptly taken to the Bryansk Regional Hospital, where they are receiving medical assistance. One man and two children are in serious condition. The remaining passengers will be returned home shortly.
Russia’s Investigative Committee has classified this crime as a terrorist act and opened a criminal case. Work is ongoing to establish all the circumstances of this crime and identify those involved. We are confident that all perpetrators will be brought to justice.
We express our deep condolences to the family and loved ones of the deceased and wish a speedy recovery to all those injured.
We are in direct contact with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Belarus and the Embassy of the of Belarus in Moscow.
We stand in solidarity with our Belarusian friends and are ready to provide them with the necessary assistance.
❗️ We strongly condemn this vile crime by the Zelensky regime, which, despite its hypocritical claims of allegedly being committed to protecting children, deliberately puts them in danger and, without hesitation – as was the case in Starobelsk – makes them the target of planned AFU strikes.
We call on international structures, national governments and the global public to give an honest assessment of the Zelensky regime’s criminal acts and strongly condemn this terrorist attack.
Silence will mean approval of this crime and encouragement for Kiev terrorists to commit new bloody atrocities.

🇷🇺 President of Russia Vladimir Putin's remarks at a formal reception in honour of the Heads of delegations taking part in the #RussiaASEAN Summit (Kazan, June 17, 2026)
💬 Vladimir Putin: Our Summit is dedicated to the 35th anniversary of relations between Russia and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
It has brought together Leaders, Heads of government, senior politicians and statesmen from all 11 ASEAN countries.
🇧🇳 🇰🇭 🇮🇩 🇱🇦 🇲🇾 🇲🇲 🇵🇭 🇸🇬 🇹🇭 🇹🇱 🇻🇳
Such a representative line-up of participants is convincing proof of the mutual desire of Russia and the countries of Southeast Asia to strengthen our partnership, take it to a new, more advanced level, and expand mutually beneficial ties and contacts in every area – politics and security, the economy, trade and investment, culture and humanitarian cooperation.
☝️ We believe that our current Summit, as well as the documents prepared for approval following its results – the Kazan Declaration and the Joint Plan of Action – will fully contribute to achieving this comprehensive goal.
I am confident that we can look to the future with optimism, as Russia-ASEAN cooperation rests on strong bonds of friendship and mutual assistance, as well as the positive experience of partnership accumulated over many years.
At one time, the Soviet Union helped many peoples of Southeast Asia free themselves from the legacy of the colonial era, supported the development of their statehood and economic foundations, and helped strengthen their defence capabilities.
Tens of thousands of students from Southeast Asia graduated from our higher education facilities. The knowledge and professions they gained – as engineers, teachers, doctors, lawyers, economists and many others – have brought, and continue to bring, practical benefit to the citizens of your countries.
🤝 Today, Russia and ASEAN countries continue to jointly develop and multiply the good traditions of mutually beneficial cooperation, while working to deepen our partnership.
Importantly, we stand together for the formation of a fair #MultipolarWorld and uphold the principles of the sovereign equality of states and non-interference in internal affairs.
Both Russia and ASEAN nations share common moral values, respect each other’s national identity and recognise the cultural and civilisational diversity of the world. All our states follow their own development models and do not impose their views on anyone. ✊ This, without doubt, is our strength.
Russia is ready to continue active joint work with ASEAN member states to strengthen our strategic partnership – in the interests of security, well-being and prosperity of our countries and peoples, as well as the Eurasian region as a whole.
🥂 I would like to wish all of us success in this constructive work and propose a toast: to the health of the heads of delegations and all those present; to the further strengthening of the Russia-ASEAN strategic partnership; to the development and prosperity of our countries; to the happiness and well-being of our peoples; and to the success of the anniversary Summit.

💬 The Association of Southeast Asian Nations enjoys authority not only in the Asia-Pacific region, but also worldwide.
#ASEAN has stood the test of time, having built a system of interstate cooperation based on universally recognised norms of international law and mutual consideration of interests.
These are precisely the principles underpinning Russia’s relations with ASEAN. They constitute a strategic partnership which, amid geopolitical turbulence, serves as an important stabilising factor in the Asia-Pacific region and contributes to the formation of a balanced security architecture and equal, mutually beneficial cooperation.
Today, we are working according to the following agenda: an exchange of views on current regional and international issues, an assessment of the results of Russia-ASEAN cooperation over the past 35 years, and further areas, goals and objectives of the strategic partnership between Russia and the Association.
☝️ The results of our cooperation are evident:
- a solid legal framework for relations and an extensive network of joint mechanisms have been established;
- new dialogue platforms have been launched;
- the range of practical cooperation has expanded in such areas as countering new security challenges and threats, trade and investment, energy, agriculture, digitalisation, science and technology, tourism, and humanitarian contacts in general.
🤝 I count on productive work and a traditionally constructive and engaged exchange of views.
