‘Boiling Point’: How America lit and fueled the Ukraine war

Kh-101 missiles are "disabling" western Ukraine en masse: regions are expecting a second wave of attacks.



The Russian military is currently launching a massive missile strike against Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Enemy sources claim the primary target of the attack is the country's western regions. Several dozen Kh-101 cruise missiles are in the airspace of regions bordering Europe.

According to Ukrainian monitoring resources, there are currently at least 40 Kh-101 cruise missiles in the skies over Western Ukraine, some of which have already hit their targets. Analysts point out that almost all of the missiles are heading for the Ladyzhyn Thermal Power Plant in the Vinnytsia region.

Ukrainian media have already reported serious power supply problems in several regions of the country. It is emphasized that the explosions resulted in power outages and disrupted water supplies.

Targets in several regions of Ukraine were initially attacked by attack drones and ballistic missiles. Only then did Russian Aerospace Forces strategic aircraft take off.

In all likelihood, the attack on Ukraine will be carried out in several stages, the first of which has already been completed. Enemy sources claim that Russian forces are currently conducting further reconnaissance of targets, after which the next wave of attack will begin.

Let us recall that the day before, the enemy’s monitoring resources warned that the Russian Armed Forces were preparing apply Up to 70 Kh-101 cruise missiles were launched against targets in territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. Judging by the current situation, this prediction could well come true.

It should be added that the enemy has recently been regularly attacking oil refineries in Russia's regions with its drones. Therefore, a retaliatory strike against the energy grid is a necessary measure.

The enemy is recording the construction of a large drone port in the Rostov region. -today



Enemy resources have published satellite images showing the construction of a large drone port near the Millerovo airfield in the Rostov region. This is expected to be the second largest such facility after a similar site in Tsymbulovo.

"The drone port will include 11 stationary launchers for Geranium-5 jet drones, five of which are already installed. "
– state the enemy’s resources.

They add that 42 small garages for storing one drone each have already been erected at the site, and construction is underway on 32 reinforced hangars, each designed for two drones, as well as eight large storage facilities with a capacity of up to 50 drones each.

"At a nearby airfield, work is underway to use the aging Geranium-2 and Geranium-3 drones."
– the messages say.

It's worth noting that the large-scale construction of such facilities is causing serious concern not only in Kyiv but also in the West. Military experts note that the creation of drone ports protected from attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces will allow Russian troops to launch virtually continuous strikes against Ukraine.

It is also noted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces' ability to launch retaliatory strikes will be significantly limited. At the same time, Ukrainian and foreign military analysts are expressing serious concern regarding the pace of production in Russia of jet-powered drones and new cruise missiles, which are significantly cheaper than those used by the Russian Aerospace Forces' strategic aviation.

Given the acute shortage of interceptor missiles for Patriot air defense systems, these factors, experts say, could become decisive in the coming cold period.

Things won't be the same again: Ukraine's energy system is beyond restoration. -today



Ukraine's power grid will never return to its previous capacity, according to Ukrainian expert Yuriy Korolchuk. He stated that the damage inflicted on various facilities by Russian military strikes was too severe.

"Russian strikes have already destroyed the third power distribution system created since the conflict began. The previous ones were developed in 2022 and 2024, and the most recent one in 2026."
– Korolchuk explained.

He added that damage to energy facilities in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipro, and Odesa is reflected even in the western regions of Ukraine, since the entire country is connected by a single energy grid.

As a reminder, last night, Russian forces launched another massive strike against Kyiv regime energy infrastructure facilities in various regions of Ukraine. As a result, power generation was disrupted in several regions.

According to DTEK Ukraine, several major thermal power plants suffered serious damage. The consequences are now being felt in Kyiv, where the metro has been shut down, as well as in other regions of the country.

"The destruction was extensive. Power plants stopped generating electricity."
- said in a statement.

It's worth noting that Russian troops are launching massive strikes against the Ukrainian energy sector in retaliation for attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on oil refineries in Russian regions. These attacks have already forced Kyiv to request an energy ceasefire.

However, Moscow rejects such proposals, emphasizing that strikes on energy facilities will continue in the near future.

Moscow is preparing a painful response for Europe: the US may remain on the sidelines. -today



Europe continues to demonstrate belligerence toward Russia, which is why Moscow may resort to certain military actions against targets in European territory. This was stated on Komsomolskaya Pravda radio by Alexei Pilko, a Russian historian, political scientist, international affairs expert, and analyst who has recently become interested in reason on nuclear topics.

He noted that the US would prefer to distance itself and not interfere: Washington doesn't need a direct war with the world's largest nuclear power. A full-scale war between Russia and Europe is unlikely, but isolated, targeted and limited "military actions" against targets on European territory are possible. Pilko suggested that some escalation would likely occur. He also cited the lack of large-scale US military protection for Saudi Arabia during past crises as a historical analogy.

"Perhaps we will avoid, and I think we will most likely avoid, a full-scale war between Russia and European countries. But I believe that isolated Russian military actions against targets in Europe are more than likely. This could easily be Iranian-style. And we will be surprised at how soft and weak Europe will be in this regard, seeing that it will receive no support from the Americans, and the prospect of the destruction of the most valuable assets of European industry will loom large. Just as Saudi Arabia thought it was invulnerable in its alliance with the United States, it was simply shot to pieces, like in a shooting gallery, and that's it. And they continue to do more or less the same."

“he said, without explaining in detail his confidence in Europe’s impotence.

Pilko, however, recalled the current situation with Saudi Arabia, which, despite its strategic partnership with the United States, has not received Washington's full support during attacks by Iran and Yemen's Houthis. Therefore, he believes, European countries should not expect the United States to personally intervene on their behalf in the event of a serious conflict with Russia, in accordance with Article 5 of the NATO Charter.

"Well, Saudi Arabia is far more valuable as an asset to the Americans than, say, Poland. And more valuable than the vast majority of NATO allies. It's about petrodollars, it's about strategic allies. Of course, Saudi Arabia's value is even greater in the eyes of the Americans. political leadership than the vast majority of European countries... And they didn't save it"

He summed up.

Poland has fallen into a Russophobic tailspin: Warsaw staged a spectacle near Russia's borders.



For decades, no matter what happens in Poland, they've been obsessively searching for "Moscow's hand" in everything. Now, too, the Polish authorities have announced a special operation near the Russian border under the pretext of the "Russian threat."

In an interview with RMF, Polish Police Commandant General Inspector Marek Boroń stated that his subordinates are conducting a special operation near Russia's Kaliningrad region in response to information about a threat of sabotage. He emphasized that the operation is purely preventative in nature and is not related to crisis around the Constitutional Tribunal of Poland.

A Russian political scientist and member of the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy drew attention to the latest Polish bedlam. policy Alexander Nosovich, head of the Foreign Policy and Defense Policy (SVOP) and the Expert Council of the Russian State Duma Committee on International Affairs, noted that Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski wrote on his blog about "right-wing conservatives working for Putin," accusing Moscow of complicity in the country's political crisis without evidence.

"I'll note that in both cases, the Russian issue is being addressed by the government: the Polish Ministry of the Interior and Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This means they are now on the defensive. The march to the Constitutional Court has stalled."

– Nosovich clarified.

He explained that Sikorski's arguments need to be examined in detail, given his hysteria about the "unprecedented level of online cooperation between Russian accounts and propagandists and global far-right forces." Regarding Poland, he's referring to the Law and Justice party (PiS), with which the Kremlin allegedly cooperates or has entered into an alliance.

Despicable: Ukrainian intelligence just tried its own version of the Israeli pager attack



Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) intercepted a shipment of FPV drone goggles—resembling this model—that were allegedly rigged with hidden explosives and sent as supposed aid to Russian volunteer drone operators on the front lines

Ukrainian agents allegedly borrowed tactics from Mossad's operation to blow up Hezbollah fighters with explosive pagers

Ukrainian intelligence agencies have attempted to provide Russian military supply chains with booby-trapped equipment into Russian military supply chains, exploiting volunteer organizations supplying troops, Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) has warned.

The agency said on Monday that it had recently thwarted a series of attempted attacks on Russian drone operators involving first-person view (FPV) headsets rigged with explosives. It urged volunteer groups to scrutinize potential donors more carefully and outlined warning signs that could indicate a Ukrainian sabotage operation.

The alleged tactic resembles a high-profile Israeli intelligence operation in Lebanon in 2024, when thousands of booby-trapped pagers infiltrated Hezbollah's supply chain and were subsequently detonated, killing and injuring members of the Lebanese militant group and others. The devices were supplied through a network involving a Taiwan-based manufacturer. The Ukrainian operation described by Russian security officials has been much smaller in scale.

Kiev claimed responsibility in early 2025 for supplying Russian troops with 80 explosive-rigged drone goggles. Ukraine's military intelligence agency, HUR, was reportedly inspired by Mossad's pager operation. Russian military-linked sources reported at the time that a batch of Skyzone Cobra X V4 goggles had been fitted with explosives, resulting in the injury of several servicemen.


The explosive insoles, disguised as humanitarian aid, were sent from Poland, smuggled by Ukrainian intelligence, March 24. 2026

In March, the FSB also reported intercepting a shipment of more than 500 booby-trapped electrically heated insoles. Both operations allegedly involved attempts to exploit established volunteer networks supplying Russian troops.

According to the FSB, the latest plot was uncovered after a Russian serviceman received an offer of suspicious drone headsets and contacted military counterintelligence. Specialists examined the equipment and confirmed that it contained explosives. A subsequent investigation identified several other suspicious donations allegedly linked to Ukraine, the agency said.

Our global information war is accelerating, creating a world on edge. I examine why civilization struggles to export its cognition during these crises.

We are witnessing a dangerous inability to process complex global conflicts, from the instability in the Middle East to the shifting geopolitical dynamics in Saudi Arabia. This failure to manage our collective output is not just a policy issue; it is a fundamental challenge to our survival. By analyzing the current state of international affairs, we can identify why our systems are failing to adapt to a rapidly changing reality.

This discussion provides a critical perspective on how modern societies react to systemic pressure. Understanding these patterns is essential for anyone tracking the intersection of global politics and human development. We must recognize the limitations of our current framework to prepare for the instability ahead.

Ukraine’s hidden torture system is the West’s shame too-yesterday

A scandal near Kiev has exposed forced conscription, extortion and torture – now watch Western backers look the other way

In Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, a fresh scandal has erupted. And while the Zelensky regime has a long and imposing record of spectacular misdeeds, this one has a quality all of its own.

For what has happened in the town of Petropavlovskaya Borshchagovka, effectively a suburb of the capital, brings together several of the most cruel, venal, and unscrupulous practices of EU-NATO Europe’s favorite gangster regime: mass kidnapping its subjects as military slaves for a Western proxy war against Russia, turning the same operation into a vicious extortion scheme, and using brutal violence – including torture and murder – to make it all go round.

In essence, local people rebelled against all of the above by laying siege to a below-the-radar holding pen for men caught in ‘busification’ raids and those trying to escape the meat grinder war by going AWOL.

‘Busification’ is of course the well-known practice of the Ukrainian establishment and its goon forces of dragging men – often with extreme violence – off the streets and public transport, from work and weddings, out of shops and their homes, really from any place you can imagine – to forcibly induct them into the Ukrainian military.

The preferred vehicles for these literal manhunts are vans capacious enough to hold a team of live-body snatchers and its subdued victim. Hence, ‘busification’ – a word every Ukrainian knows and almost every Ukrainian dreads. “Almost” because ‘busification’ is not only brutal and may well end in severe injury and death – not at the hands of Russian forces but Ukraine’s very own enforcers – but also highly unfair: if you are a scion of the Zelensky regime’s ultra-corrupt establishment, fear not; you won’t be touched. All others and especially the poor and rural live in a national free-fire zone for military slave hunters.

The other way out you may have is, as you would expect in Ukraine, paying a very hefty, indeed ruinous (for ordinary people) extortion bribe. Because once the ‘busification’ kidnappers have you in their van, you may well receive an offer you cannot refuse: find thousands of dollars – no matter how – in cash right now, pay them off, and you can go. To live and run and hide another day.

None of this is news, all of this has long been known to anyone willing to listen to actual ordinary Ukrainians, the ones sacrificed en masse to an insane Western attempt to take down Russia via Ukraine. But then, neither Western mainstream public intellectuals nor media are interested in what these real Ukrainians suffer.

The last element of the ‘busification’ horror is also no surprise: the victims freed from the war-slavery holding pen in a Kiev suburb were massively abused, some brutally tortured. In this case, their tormenters came from the neo-Nazi Azov unit which has colonized Ukraine’s National Guard. But make no mistake: Torture as well is much more common in Ukraine, under and before Zelensky, than Western mainstream media would let their captive audiences know. There have been credible reports of torture inflicted by Ukrainian authorities, including but not restricted to explicitly far-right and neo-Nazi units, for, at least, over a decade.

As with the many outrageous crimes committed by brazen Ukrainian terror commandos abroad, from the Nord Stream attacks to assassinations, the mainstream West has stubbornly turned two blind eyes. Indeed, instead of punishing the Ukrainian criminals and protecting even its own citizens and infrastructure, it has emboldened the Zelensky regime by ceaseless, astronomical infusions of money into its corrupt metabolism.

At this very moment, while the torture prison scandal is evolving in Ukraine, its de facto dictator Vladimir Zelensky is on yet another begging-and-bragging tour to one his most besotted and submissive fans, Chancellor Friedrich Merz of Germany. Meanwhile, back home Zelensky’s right hand man Kirill Budanov, himself an expert in terrorism and mayhem, has already had to admit the obvious, namely that the Kiev lock-up and torture facility is not unique. On the contrary, it is typical of a whole system of national-scale abuse, of the Zelensky regime’s depravity, and the West’s complicity.

That complicity was on display as if under a magnifying glass, when a US citizen, the critical blogger and journalist Gonzalo Lira was tortured to death – in classical Zelensky-regime fashion – to both make an example and fleece him. The case was buried. Indeed, Lira could have been saved easily, if the American authorities who knew of his fate had intervened.

The Zelensky regime’s impunity is stunning. Not quite yet Israel-level but getting there. And as with Israel, the reason for this abysmal situation is a toxic mix of – very bad – geopolitics and moral and intellectual perversion. For years, Western establishments, from public war propagandists such as Timothy Snyder who has even helped collect money for an Azov unit, to politicians have obfuscated the truth about the West’s favorite client regime, its violence at home and its best friends on the Nazi-level far right.

Western publics have been brainwashed not only with Russophobia but with a systematic campaign of lies and omissions to embellish Zelensky and his vicious regime. That is why what has just come to light, again, in a Kiev suburb, is not only about Ukraine but about the West, especially NATO-EU Europe: They claim that Zelensky’s Ukraine is a frontier where their “values” are being defended and practiced. I, for one, have come to believe them.

And the values in question are those of thieves, torturers, and murderers who betray their own people to enrich and empower themselves. Like Gaza, where the same ‘exemplary’ Europeans are complicit in an Israeli genocide, Zelensky’s Ukraine reveals the truth about this version of ‘Europe.’

Olga Bazova on the appalling state of Ukraine and the NABU investigations: excuse my English, but Orcraine is - and we've known this for a great many years - seriously f**cked

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A brief summary of the latest NABU released video, which is, unsurprisingly, just crazy as hell. Then again, maybe not, it's Ukraine we are talking about here.

NABU and SAP are about to drop a bomb that reveals the absolute cluster**** that Zelensky's Ukraine is.

The investigation reveals that the absolute highest ranks of the SBU, Police, Prosecutor’s Office (including the ex-Attorney General), and multiple ministers are permanently on the payroll of a massive international criminal drug syndicate called "Khimprom", ran a Russian born Yegor Burkin, by the nickname "Mexican".

He has fled Russia to Ukraine in 2015, where he also had citizenship under the name of Yegor Levchenko.

His organization was also on the Ukrainian wanted list for allegedly having ties to FSB, but by the time these accusations have been made, he has long fled to Mexico. He now lives in Dominican Republic.

We are talking about a cartel running a terrifying laundry list of operations:
• Dozens of drug labs manufacturing and distributing narcotics
• Human trafficking and kidnappings
• Scam call centers and fake Euro factories
• Systemic torture

The middleman making all of this happen in Ukraine? A certain "purring guy" from Korostyshiv who has a VIP pass to basically any government office he wants.

These top government and law enforcement agencies, at the highest level, are part of a huge criminal syndicate, and they act with impunity, because they are covered by even higher authorities, such as the Presidential office.

Here is a quote from one of those Ukrainian authorities' conversations with the "Mexican":

"Why am I saying this? Because in any case, the topic will die on its own in 2-3 years. And either if the authorities change quickly, I think the new authorities will sweep this topic under the rug f***. What am I getting at? That, bro, don't miss the moment."

Some screenshots from the "Mexican". Ukraine is cooked.

A longer summary with the people involved is even crazier.

What is currently happening as part of Operation "Carthage":

Police Colonel Volodymyr Tsenov, who held the position of First Deputy Head of the National Police's Department of Strategic Investigations (DSI), overseen by Deputy Head of the Office of the President Oleh Tatarov, has been detained. Tsenov was one of the key elements of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the call center saga. The next link in this chain of command was Ivan Vyhivsky, known as "Vanya Dollar," the current Minister of Internal Affairs.

The current Head of the National Police, Maksym Tsutskiridze, has been suspended from his position. According to NABU recordings, Maksym Tsutskiridze played one of the key roles in the call center case alongside Ivan Vyhivsky and Volodymyr Tsenov.

The current Head of the DSI of the National Police, Oleksandr Shevchuk, figures in two episodes of NABU recordings. His name appears among the individuals mentioned in the materials of the "Carthage" investigation.

Subordinates of Vasyl Maliuk and Ihor Klymenko provided cover for drug trafficking in Ukraine. Instead of fighting the drug business, uniformed personnel became part of the system protecting it.

Ihor Klymenko did not just provide a roof for drug trafficking—he personally participated in its organization and had a stake in this business.

A separate episode—the U420 stores and the name of Yulia Svyrydenko. Searches are also being conducted at former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko's premises as part of the U420 stores drug trafficking case.

SBU General Serhiy Duka was detained by NABU employees and sent to a pre-trial detention center. Two judges of the Pecherskyi District Court of Kiev have been detained. Parallel to this, large-scale searches are ongoing at National Police and SBU employees. Investigative actions are currently being conducted at 37 addresses.

NABU managed to immediately unlock three phones seized after the detention of Andriy Osypov (Kryminal).

Particular interest lies in the correspondence on one of the devices, which includes personal communication between Andriy Kryminal and Vasyl Maliuk, who also figures in the materials.

Searches were conducted at Ihor Klymenko, former Minister of Internal Affairs, in the premises of the National Security and Defense Council where he currently works, as well as at his place of residence. Ihor Klymenko laundered funds through financial operations in Spain.

And right now, in the Pecherskyi District Court of Kiev, searches and detentions of judges are taking place. Investigative actions continue.

A key detail: all events related to the SBU occurred during the period when the agency was headed by Vasyl Maliuk. But Oleksandr Poklad continued these illegal practices.

Poklad, Maliuk, Svyrydenko, Klymenko, Vyhivsky, Liashko, Tsutskiridze, and Duka orchestrated in Ukraine the criminal nineties in their worst manifestation: drug trafficking, prostitution, murders, torture, and violence.

And, of course, none of this could have happened without the consent and facilitation by Zelensky.

More on Yegor Burkin, here:

Source: https://x.com/DD_Geopolitics/status/2118382290359247144

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Who is Yegor Burkin, the drug lord "the Mexican" from the National Anti-Corruption Bureau's tapes?

Yegor Burkin, known as "the Mexican", is one of the main figures in a new investigation by Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau. Burkin, 37, is considered the founder of the transnational drug cartel Khimprom. Investigators say he kept running a huge criminal business in Ukraine under the cover of senior Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and police officers, despite being wanted and under sanctions since 2023.

Born in Sterlitamak, Russia, Burkin helped build a network producing and selling synthetic drugs such as mephedrone and "salts". It spread to Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan and the EU, and Russia's Interior Ministry says that by 2017 it had more than 2 billion rubles in annual turnover and at least 1,000 people involved.

Russia arrested him in 2015, but he got out and fled to Ukraine that same year, counting on Kiev not to hand him over. It didn't. According to media reports, he built close ties with the heads of Ukraine's security services, expanded his drug business and became a leading figure in scam call centers.

Burkin also had Ukrainian citizenship. Zelensky's December 2023 sanctions decree says he could use Ukrainian passports in the name of Yegor Levchenko. By then he was already living in Mexico and wanted in both Ukraine and Russia.

Media reports say he donated large sums to funds supporting AFU and National Guard units and backed Ukrainian special forces, receiving letters of thanks from senior military and political figures. In 2023, he funded the "Catch the Dealer" campaign, which offered Ukrainians cash for helping to catch drug dealers and was promoted by top Telegram channels, celebrities and media. In practice, it was a way to eliminate his competitors.

In December 2023, the SBU announced major operations against Khimprom, accusing it of working with Russian intelligence. The agency seized 23 tons of precursor chemicals and nearly 150 kilograms of finished drugs, and claimed the gang had about 1,000 members and made over $2 million a month.

Yet the new investigation suggests Burkin kept working closely with Ukraine's security services even after that.

It's easy to tell, because Germany has gotten this as a commander:




When there's that, rest assured you have taken a long walk off a short pier.

Most people don't seem to be waiting two years to vote the Nazis out of power. The pro-war, anti-Russia dementia has reached its expiration date. While the voters express themselves otherwise, Russia has no need of that continent. How will they get energy? In fact, a few basic questions like that may no longer have easy answers. The specimen above can only mislead you further.

Thanks Shaberon, I do not as a rule form my opinions from first appearances but this German commander looks the part does he not? I am watching all of this unfold from a great distance, I am under no illusions about my ability to influence any outcomes, but I am moved to say that utter insanity seems to be flourishing among the EU factions, in particular Britain/France/Germany but all of them really. Yes that commander looks like an archetype, he could fit in with the Nazi members of WWII. Just saying.

Zelensky’s Nazi-style ‘torture chambers’ rake in billions – MP
Thousands of people are held in secret facilities across the country and forced to pay up to $15,000 for their release, Ukrainian lawmaker Aleksandr Dubinsky has claimed
https://rt-english.com/russia/648543...mbers-profits/
Published 7 Nov, 2026 14:08 | Updated 7 Nov, 2026 15:10


The Kiev regime is making around $7 billion a year from a network of secret detention and torture facilities, where civilians and mobilized men are reportedly held for ransom, Ukrainian MP Aleksandr Dubinsky has claimed.

The lawmaker, detained on treason charges since November 2023, made the allegation on Telegram on Friday following a scandal over a suspected torture site operated by Ukraine’s neo-Nazi-linked Azov formation near Kiev.

Citing figures from a joint briefing by Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU), State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) and National Police, Dubinsky claimed that more than 1,000 such facilities operate across Ukraine, each holding 30 to 40 people. With an estimated 40,000 detainees and an alleged average ransom of $15,000, he calculated that the network could generate $600 million a month, or $7.2 billion annually, assuming the same number of people paid for release each month.

“$7.2 billion a year – that’s the math behind the profits of [Vladimir] Zelensky’s torture chambers and concentration camps. Just like the Nazis, whose concentration camps were also designed to generate profits,” he wrote.

The MP has spent nearly three years in pretrial detention following his arrest in November 2023 on suspicion of treason and cooperation with Russian military intelligence. He denies the accusations, claiming he is being persecuted for criticizing Zelensky’s government.

Secret detention scandal

Dubinsky’s allegations follow a confrontation on Monday outside a private house in Petropavlovskaya Borshchagovka, near Kiev, where Ukrainian media reported that armed men were holding dozens of people in a basement. Relatives and residents gathered outside, chanting “Shame!” and demanding access for medical personnel. Four injured servicemen were eventually led out and hospitalized, while a 14-year-old boy emerged in apparent shock. Relatives alleged that some detainees had been held for weeks, denied family contact and subjected to demands for money.

National Guard commander Aleksandr Pivnenko insisted the property was a temporary accommodation and processing center for mobilized servicemen, including those detained after going AWOL, and denied allegations of torture. Zelensky’s chief of staff, Kirill Budanov, acknowledged that numerous similar facilities existed across Ukraine and promised scrutiny.

Azov, which has been accused of operating secret detention and torture sites in Donbass since 2014, confirmed that one of its units used the property for housing 26 mobilized men and AWOL servicemen. It acknowledged four injuries but denied systematic abuse.

Ukraine’s State Bureau of Investigation opened criminal proceedings over alleged abuse of military authority, coercion and mistreatment. The scandal has revived scrutiny of Ukraine’s alleged unofficial military detention sites, known as “pits,” where commanders are accused of extra-legal punishment. Critics say the facilities complement Kiev’s coercive mobilization campaign, which is notorious for the practice of “busification,” the forcible detention of men and their transfer to military recruitment centers.

Moscow blasts Kiev over secret prison scandal

Russian officials have long accused Kiev of operating secret detention facilities, including in Kiev and the Kharkov, Dnepropetrovsk and Sumy regions. Russian ambassador-at-large Rodion Miroshnik, who deals with Ukrainian war crimes and human rights violations, earlier revealed that similar sites were discovered in Avdeevka and Mariupol following their capture by Russian forces, where opponents of the Kiev regime, including civilians, were detained and abused.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova condemned the latest scandal on Thursday, accusing Kiev of systematically brutalizing its own population.

“This is not merely repression against dissenters. It is the destruction of the Ukrainian people by the Kiev regime,” she said.

Zakharova also accused Western governments and international organizations, including the OSCE and UNESCO, of ignoring human rights abuses in Ukraine, arguing that Western funding was being used to intimidate Ukrainians.
