I maybe a little behind the news cycle but I remember seeing a news story earlier that the Russian airbase in Rostov was hit by something? I'll try and track that down.

Yes, the Morozovsk airfield attacked by Ukrainian drones apparently. That's one heck of an explosion too...

⚡️ New evidence of war crimes by Ukrainian militants in the Kursk Oblast

The crew of a "Stryker" IFV, vehicles of this type are in service with the 22nd Brigade of the Kiev regime, shot at a civilian car in the border village of Zeleny Shlyakh, not far from Sudzha, reported war correspondent Evgeny Poddubny.

The incident was captured by a Russian reconnaissance drone. The vehicle, after being hit, rolled into a ditch and caught fire. The "Stryker" was camouflaged in a forest strip.

Everyone in the car perished. They didn't even see the crew that opened fire on them.

IMAGINE THE TRANSCRIPT OF THIS MESSAGE

The confirmation came from Deputy FM Ryabkov, on Rossiya TV, and it’s a howler. Ryabkov, mega-competent, is also the Russian sherpa for BRICS+.

Ryabkov was very cautious. When asked directly whether "an action was being prepared at the Main Naval Parade" against Putin, Ryabkov "did not answer in the affirmative, only acknowledging the presence of "a certain connection with this kind of event" - according to the Russian Foreign Ministry.

Ryabkov called a provocation being prepared by Ukraine a "very alarming" episode, which was planned in connection "with our internal events in order to inflict maximum damage and obtain the maximum media effect they need."

So this is how it really happened.

Russian intel discovered that Kiev intel was setting up the joint assassination of Putin and Defense Minister Belousov during the Navy Day parade in St. Petersburg.

Normally we would have Bortnikov (FSB) or Patrushev (special adviser to Putin) pickin' up the phone and calling the CIA’s Burns to ask for an explanation.

In this case it was much more hardcore. Belousov himself called the Pentagon weapons peddler Austin and told him in no uncertain terms to tighten the leash on the Kiev goons - OR ELSE.

Now imagine the transcript of this blunt Russian message.

As Martyanov remarked, Belousov must have detailed how Kiev would simply cease to exist - and in due time, “so would D.C.” if the Americans decided to authorize the hit.

Ryabkov also referred explicitly to “some other countries”. Translation: Brits and Poles.

Moscow finally seems to be gettin' the picture: there’s no way to deal with terror entities, except to politely tell them in their faces they will be incinerated with no mercy.

Feelings are giant, but, but... Maybe Ukraine/US/EU ... shall be disappointed.

An exact metaphor from 1970's. Waiting for the destruction of BRICS:

This could VERY easily be fake news (maybe an old video?), but interesting enough to post here nonetheless:

Unconfirmed video of Russian forces shooting down the first NATO supplied F-16 in Ukraine.
The Russian soldier who did this just became $180,000 richer.

Edit to add:

I feel sure this is an older incident, not an F-16 at all. (And to me, it looks unlikely to be any kind of plane.) But I'll leave this post here for the moment just for reference.

Update: his car was indeed targeted by a drone, but Poddubny is alive, though with very serious injuries.

Russian Orthodox Metropolitan of Kursk stated that Ukrainian drones purposely bombed the Gornalsky monastery in the targeted attack on the region.

"The main Nikolaevsky temple of the monastery was severely damaged, its dome was destroyed, all doors and windows were knocked out," he said. "A follow-up massive attack destroyed and burned down the second temple with good oak iconostasis and beautiful painting."

The metropolitan noted that there are rooms prepared for the monks of the Gornalsky monastery in Kursk.

It’s unconfirmed but there is a bounty.
