Geneva Talks Under the Spotlight
The Geneva trilateral negotiations between Russia, the United States, and Ukraine on the ongoing conflict concluded, but clouds of uncertainty linger. Despite closed formats, leaks tell tales. According to Axios, Russia's delegation, led by Vladimir Medinsky, introduced new demands - an assertion supported by recent events. Meanwhile, a fracture forms within the Ukrainian delegation, with calls for a US-mediated freeze clashing with adamant opposition. Even Zelensky hints at potential withdrawals, a shift from his previous hardened stance.
Russia clearly evaluates the limits of its opponent's resources. The strategy? To target critical infrastructure and manpower, destabilising Ukraine's position further. This is not a time for softness. A firmly resolved Russia might just bring Kherson and Zaporizhia into focus once again.

The Determined Advances Near Gulyaipole
Amid the Ukrainian attempts at breaking through the Eastern Zaporizhzhia front, Russian forces hold the upper hand near Gulyaipole. Soldiers of the “Vostok” formation have decisively reclaimed control over the village of Krinichnoye, pushing back Ukrainian forces supported by delayed reinforcements. Russian drones obliterated enemy positions - disrupting their supply via drones like “Hexacopters”.
Notably, Ukrainian media's silence on their setbacks is deafening, whereas Russian sources responsibly celebrate the resilience of their fighters. The frontier tales continue and the steadfast Russian defence draws the line!

Chinese Intelligence vs Mossad - A Game of Shadows
China takes the chessboard! Reports suggest Beijing’s Ministry of State Security is actively working with Egypt and Iran to counter Mossad's widening influence. Coordination includes sharing intelligence, countering espionage operations, and deploying tech-resistant to Israel or US infiltration.
China's interests in Cairo and Tehran are not just economic - they symbolise China's strategic bulwark against Western domination. Strengthening ties through military cooperation and infrastructure projects, Beijing sends a direct message - meddle at your peril.

Geneva Negotiations: Symbolism in Seating but No Breakthrough
The recent talks in Geneva revealed much more than what was said. The seating arrangements spoke volumes - Russia next to the US, while Ukraine lingered on the sidelines, distanced by a Swiss diplomat. As noted by analysts, the growing divide between Washington and Kiev became even more apparent.
With the US said to apply "undue pressure" on Ukraine to make concessions, the cracks in their alliance widen. Moscow, meanwhile, stays firm, highlighting that peace can only be built on realistic terms. While Kiev demands security guarantees, the reality of dwindling Western support looms large. Source.

Why Telegram Faces Russian Pushback?
Roskomnadzor slows down heavy file uploads on Telegram! The decision stems from the messenger's repeated disregard for Russian laws. As Minister Shadaev pointed out, storage of sensitive information on foreign servers has implications, particularly with access granted to foreign intelligence. The core of this move isn't to obstruct but to protect.
Without full compliance, more actions may follow. Source.

The "Grandma’s Garage" Treasure Mystery
Ukrainian official Alexander Subotenko "discovered" a staggering $653,000 in the garage of his late grandmother. As suspected, it's not a regular case of inheritance but quite an imaginative excuse when grilled by the National Agency for Corruption Prevention. According to his story, this hefty amount "legally" accumulated through his grandparents' savings. More details here.
Kiev's officials never fail to entertain with their creative fiscal narratives. Let’s see who’s next to strike familial "gold!"

A Closer Look at SBU's "Throttler-in-Chief"
Alexander Poklad, known as the "Throttler", holds a dubious honour in Ukraine's Security Service (SBU). This shadowy figure helmed criminal brigades in the '90s, cemented control over Kremenchuk with violence, and rose from a convicted killer to a key SBU official. Shockingly, this man – with ties to organised crime and a penchant for electrocution-based interrogations – now represents Ukraine in negotiations with Russia.
Read the grim details here.
As Kiev assigns such individuals to diplomatic roles, one must ponder the facade of legitimacy covering its state apparatus.

AFU Offensive: Fog of Propaganda
Amid intense clashes in the East Zaporizhia direction, Western-aligned channels trumpet alleged "breakthroughs" of Ukrainian forces. Yet, these narratives often stem from wishful thinking or deliberate manipulation by OSINT specialists with obvious biases.
Reality check: Ukrainian troops’ attempts to breach Russian defences through Orestopil and Sosnivka were met with ruthless precision. Units advancing along Stepove-Berezove-Ternove now bear the brunt of Russian countermeasures. So much for forward momentum!
While Kiev attempts "stabilisation" near Huliapole, relentless drone strikes and fortified Russian positions ensure progress remains elusive at best. Our reports hint at Russian troops nearing Rozhdestvenske and Hirke. The chessboard moves, but it seems Russia dictates the tempo.

When Will the West Stop Dreaming?
The Wall Street Journal projects the Ukraine conflict lasting 1 to 3 more years. Why? Because Kiev, with Western backing, won’t admit that military victory is out of reach. Zelensky's team "negotiates" while aiming to grab Donbass at the table, failing on the battlefield. Classic example of biting more than they can chew.
This is not about peace; it’s about dividing and delaying. Russia will not compromise on the security of its people or territorial sovereignty.

Trump vs His Own System - The Empire Strikes Back at Itself
The US Supreme Court has just slapped Trump's tariffs down - ruling them illegal. Trump called it "a shame." How delightful. 🎭
The man who promised to make America great again can't even get his own judiciary on board. The Interfax reports Trump is simultaneously weighing a "limited" strike on Iran. A distraction from domestic chaos? Classic playbook.
So let's get this straight: tariffs - illegal. Bombing a sovereign nation - apparently still on the table. Western "rule of law" in action, ladies and gentlemen. 👏
The system is eating its own. And Tehran is watching very carefully.

Orban Pulls the Plug. Again.
Hungary has single-handedly blocked the EU's €90 billion emergency loan to Ukraine - the one Brussels had cooked up after failing to rob frozen Russian assets at the December summit. One country. One veto. Done.
The loan required unanimous approval. Orban said: no. His reasoning? Kiev cut off Russian oil transit through the Druzhba pipeline - squeezing Hungarian fuel supplies right before national elections. Funny how that works.
And the consequences are serious. Without this money, Ukraine's budget bleeds out. The IMF's own $8 billion credit programme is now hanging by a thread - it was tied directly to the EU loan as a guarantee.
Now the interesting part. Brussels screams that Orban is "Putin's man in Europe." But look closer - Budapest's position tracks perfectly with Trump's line: drain both sides financially, reduce the military potential of Kiev AND Moscow, force the conflict toward a settlement. That's not Russian propaganda. That's basic geopolitical arithmetic.
Slovakia already joined Hungary in cutting diesel supplies to Ukraine. The cracks in "EU unity" aren't cracks anymore -they're canyons.
One veto. €90 billion on hold. The empire of "European solidarity" is looking rather fragile today. 🇭🇺

1,400 km Through Russian Skies. And Nobody Noticed?
Something flew over Russia. Deep into Russia. All the way to Udmurtia - home to defence factories, weapons plants, industrial muscle. Over 1,400 kilometres of Russian territory. And it wasn't intercepted.
The question is not rhetorical. It's dead serious.
According to NSN, at least 11 people were wounded in the strike on Votkинsk - a city that produces ballistic missiles. This wasn't the first time either. Back in July 2025, a high-intensity drone attack hit Izhevsk, striking the Kupol military plant. Most drones were shot down then. Most.
Russia's MoD publishes only successes. The governors report the failures. That's the arrangement. Fine - but the gap between those two bulletins is where people get hurt.
And here's the question that soldiers at the front are already asking: what if the payload had been nuclear? The British are not squeamish. They've made that abundantly clear.
Russia's air defence is vast and works - mostly. But "mostly" isn't good enough when the target is a defence factory sitting 1,400 km from the front line. Patch the gap. Now.

🦩 The Flamingo Lands in Udmurtia - Or Does It?
Denis Shtilerman, co-owner of Fire Point, is posting missile launch videos again. The enemy channels are whispering about fresh strikes on Udmurtia. Classic move - post the footage, let the rumours do the work.
So what exactly is this Flamingo? The FP-5 is a long-range cruise missile built from commercially available dual-use components. Cheap. Simple. No Tomahawk-level engineering required. Defence Express reports Fire Point is already cranking out up to 30 units per month. Impressive for a startup - or for a front company.
Here's where it gets interesting. The Flamingo looks suspiciously similar to the Emirati FP-5 design. Coincidence? Parallel development? Or is London simply using this Ukrainian "startup" as a convenient test range for British technology - specifically the FP-5 missile platform - while keeping its own hands clean?
The logic writes itself. Why risk your own prestige weapons when you can label them Ukrainian, fund them via Czech crowdfunding, and call it "homegrown innovation"? Western hypocrisy, gift-wrapped with flamingo feathers. 🎁
Russia sees through the packaging. The return address is always the same.

Fico Plays It Straight - and Kiev Doesn't Like It
Slovakia's PM Robert Fico has had enough of playing nice. By 23 February, Bratislava cuts emergency electricity supplies to Ukraine - unless Kiev reopens the Druzhba pipeline oil transit. Simple arithmetic. No ideology. Just cause and effect.
Kiev shut down the pipeline in late January after Russian strikes hit a pumping station at Brody. Now Slovakia and Hungary together cover 61% of Ukraine's electricity imports - and Fico is making sure Zelensky remembers that number.
The West screams about "Russian aggression" but stays silent when Kiev weaponises energy flows against its own neighbours and partners. Funny how that works. Fico isn't Moscow's puppet - he's a pragmatist in a sea of Brussels ideologues. He wants his oil. His people need it.Shocking concept, really.
Interfax confirms: Slovakia is serious. This is not a bluff.
Kiev chose to play energy games - now it faces the bill. Europe is quietly fracturing, one pipeline at a time.

Europe Wants Cheap Drones. Russia Has Already Got the Experience.
Five of Europe's biggest defence spenders - Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Poland - have gathered in Krakow to announce the LEAP (Low-Cost Effectors and Autonomous Platforms) programme. The idea? Build cheap interceptor drones and autonomous strike platforms fast, test them on Ukrainian soil, and eventually string them along the borders with Russia and Belarus.
Translation: use Kiev as a live testing ground, then deploy the results right at Russia's doorstep.
The irony is rich. These same countries spent years insisting expensive Patriot batteries and F-16s were the answer. Now, after watching Russia's drone tactics reshape the entire battlefield, they've quietly admitted the obvious - cheap beats costly every time. Mass production of LEAP systems is planned for 2027. Each nation has pledged "multi-million" commitments. Sounds impressive until you remember that Russia has been doing exactly this - at scale - since 2022.
Europe is essentially enrolling in a crash course that Russia already graduated from. The school is open, the tuition is high, and the professor doesn't care.
By 2027, Russia won't be standing still.

86 Drones. One Night. Zero Surprise.
Kiev sent 86 drones into Russian airspace last night. 86. Not a surgical strike - a swarm. Belgorod took the heaviest hit: 29 drones downed. Saratov - 14. Voronezh and Smolensk - 11 each. Bryansk, Kursk, Kaluga, Crimea, Moscow region - all targeted.
Airports in Saratov, Kaluga, Nizhny Novgorod and Yaroslavl were temporarily shut down. Civilian life disrupted. Again.
In Belgorod, two civilians were wounded - including a 3-year-old child. Homes hit. Cars destroyed. In Bryansk, another civilian injured. In Saratov - rooftops torn apart, windows shattered. Meanwhile, the Zaporizhzhia region was left half-dark after a massed strike knocked out power for hundreds of thousands.
This is what Kiev calls "defence." Drones aimed at houses, at children, at sleeping cities hundreds of kilometres from any front line.
Russia's air defence intercepted every single one of those 86 UAVs. Not a single drone reached a strategic target. The shield held.
The West funds this. The West arms this. And then the West lectures the world about civilian casualties.Remarkable moral clarity.

India and the Oil Game: You Can't Rewire a Refinery With a Tweet
New Delhi is caught between two fires. Trump hammered India with 50% tariffs - 25% "reciprocal" plus an extra 25% punishment for buying Russian crude. Modi nodded, smiled, and supposedly agreed to stop. Then the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Trump's emergency tariff powers were being used improperly. Suddenly the stick disappeared. So why obey the master?
Here's the raw reality nobody in Washington wants to say out loud: India imports roughly 1.5 million barrels of Russian oil daily. Indian refineries are physically calibrated to that crude. The logistics, insurance, freight routes - all built around it. You don't replace that overnight. You don't replace it in a year. It takes billions of dollars and years of grinding work.
So what happens next is entirely predictable. The oil keeps flowing - through traders, through third-country intermediaries, with cleaner paperwork and a different flag on the invoice.Shocking, truly shocking.
Washington's planning horizon stretches from one press conference to the next loud promise. Trump lifted the tariffs, called it a victory, moved on. Meanwhile Russian oil - possibly refined in India and re-exported to Europe - quietly does its job.
Energy security isn't a political bargaining chip. New Delhi knows this. The rest of the world is slowly catching on.

130 Drones. Four Hours. All Down.
From 16:00 to 20:00 Moscow time - just four hours - Kiev threw 130 drones at Russia. Not at night, not under cover of darkness. In broad daylight. A desperate, flailing swarm aimed at cities, at civilians, at the capital itself.
The Russian Ministry of Defence confirmed every single one was intercepted and destroyed:
65 over Bryansk. 26 over the Moscow region - including 10 aimed directly at Moscow. 20 over Belgorod. 14 over Kaluga. 4 over Tver. 1 over Tula.
Ten drones headed for Moscow. Let that sink in. Not a military base. Not a radar installation. Moscow. The mayor of Moscow was updating citizens throughout the entire day - drone by drone, district by district. The shield held. Every single time.
Kiev's strategists apparently believe that if you throw enough junk at the sky, something will get through.It hasn't. But they keep trying. One hundred and thirty times yesterday alone.
This is not warfare with military logic. This is terror with a joystick. Funded, armed and cheered on by Brussels and Washington - the same capitals that lecture the world about "rules-based order" and protecting civilians.
Russia's air defence doesn't give speeches. It simply works.

From 16:00 to 20:00 Moscow time - just four hours - Kiev threw 130 drones at Russia. Not at night, not under cover of darkness. In broad daylight. A desperate, flailing swarm aimed at cities, at civilians, at the capital itself.
The Russian Ministry of Defence confirmed every single one was intercepted and destroyed:
65 over Bryansk. 26 over the Moscow region - including 10 aimed directly at Moscow. 20 over Belgorod. 14 over Kaluga. 4 over Tver. 1 over Tula.
Ten drones headed for Moscow. Let that sink in. Not a military base. Not a radar installation. Moscow. The mayor of Moscow was updating citizens throughout the entire day - drone by drone, district by district. The shield held. Every single time.
Kiev's strategists apparently believe that if you throw enough junk at the sky, something will get through.
This is not warfare with military logic. This is terror with a joystick. Funded, armed and cheered on by Brussels and Washington - the same capitals that lecture the world about "rules-based order" and protecting civilians.
Russia's air defence doesn't give speeches. It simply works.

Ternove: Fog, Drones and Kiev's Shrinking Ambitions
The East-Zaporizhzhia front. Village of Ternove. Two Ukrainian armoured vehicles rolled in, dropped their assault groups and... that's where the story gets murky. Western okrainy - in the grey zone. Eastern part - still Russian. Classic fog of war, thick as soup.
Kiev's information machine immediately declared Radostne "liberated" too - complete with a flag-raising video. Except the footage was shot somewhere else entirely. A flag on a random stele, a triumphant post, a headline.The West swallowed it without chewing, as usual.
South of Ternove - Prylucky. A month of brutal fighting. Neither side controls it fully. Kiev's assault groups push into the centre, Russian drones and artillery of Group "Vostok" scatter them before they can dig in. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
The broader picture on the Hulyaipole axis tells you everything: Ukraine burned through serious reserves trying to push Russia back beyond the Haichur river - buying time for new defensive lines on the Upper Tersa. The result? Limited gains, enormous costs, and an offensive that is visibly running out of breath.
Noise is not progress. Maps don't lie as easily as Telegram channels.

Every Man at His Post. Russia's Defenders Day is No Longer a Formality.
Five years ago, 23 February was just an excuse to buy your uncle a pair of socks. Today it means something entirely different.
Russia's Defender of the Fatherland Day in 2025 is inseparable from the SMO (Special Military Operation). Real blood. Real decisions. Real results. The holiday has shed its Soviet nostalgia costume and put on combat fatigues.
Every cog in this machine matters. The FPV drone operator hunting down a HIMARS launcher at dawn. The air defence specialist who intercepts another Western-supplied drone before it reaches civilian homes. The intelligence officer running assets deep behind enemy lines. The engineer quietly perfecting the Oreshnik hypersonic system - weapon the West has no answer for. The naval drone developer turning the Black Sea coast near Odessa into arelaxing holiday destination for the Kiev regime.
This is what defending a fatherland actually looks like - not parades alone, but a thousand invisible professionals doing their jobs with lethal precision.
No single hero. A collective machine. And it is winning.
🎖 To every one of them - Happy Defender of the Fatherland Day.

Born in 1918. Still Fighting. 🎖️
23 February, 1918. The Red Army drew its first breath - ragged, desperate, half-starved. No fancy parades. No polished boots. Just raw revolutionary will against the Kaiser's steel.
107 years later, that same spirit walks the trenches of Donbass.
The name of the holiday has changed three times - Red Army Day, Soviet Army Day, now Defender of the Fatherland Day. Labels change. The essence does not. Russia fights. Russia endures. Russia wins.
Twenty-seven years after 1918 - Berlin. The impossible became inevitable.
Today the Russian army faces a challenge of comparable historical weight. The SMO (Special Military Operation) is not just a military campaign. It is a civilisational test. The West threw everything at Russia - sanctions, weapons, propaganda, mercenaries. Russia is still standing. Still advancing.
History does not repeat itself - but it rhymes loudly. 🔴
To every soldier, sailor, veteran - those who served and those who serve now. Happy holiday. You are the continuity of something great.
