Ukraine also launched a massive drone attack against Kursk and other targets inside Russia. Russia, of course, claims they shot everything down.
A bunch of Russians go out for a nice Sunday drive in the country. What could possibly go wrong?

Should be relatively easy to geolocate this drone unit.
Russia uses cluster munitions against civilian areas in Kupyansk.
Typically after a disastrous assault like this one the lone survivor who makes it back posts a video beseeching Putin to fix this FUBAR mess.
This village is just up the road from Velyka Novosilka (see above).

The village of Shevchenko south of Pokrovsk has become a major battlefield. Ukraine seized it recently and Russia has been throwing hundreds of troops at it trying to recapture it.
Meanwhile, the front line inside the settlement remains fluid, marked by brutal close-quarters combat and drone strikes—as seen in numerous geolocated videos. The action is relentless. Positions are often taken and retaken within hours, as both sides fight for control of buildings, streets, and basements.
There is something deliciously ironic about a $200 million electronic warfare system being destroyed by a $1,000 drone.
Cannon fodder discovers that they really are cannon fodder.

1/ Russian POW: “Failure to follow orders, failure to contact? They simply start bombing you. You’re in a basement, you haven’t contacted for half a day, a day. You’re lost. That’s it, they start bombing you. They send you to an unknown place, they say, everything is clear there.

2/ Move on, guys, everything is clear there, everyone is ours, but as soon as they start walking, they all immediately lie down. They just lie down in droves … We lived 17 days in a broken dugout.
3/ I say, comrade, either you and I die here in this dugout, because our command didn’t give a damn about us – they didn’t feed us, they didn’t give us water. Or we surrender. There is no other way out.
4/ We threw away our weapons, that’s it, we left the dugout on the road and surrendered.”
With a formation like this, Ukraine only needs one cluster shell, enabling them to save ammunition for the next group of lucky Russians.
Maybe they are working on a secret manure bomb.

Russia uses fertilizer companies for explosives to bypass sanctions, reported by The Moscow Times.
Major fertilizer companies are allegedly at the center of a covert operation to support Russia’s military, casting a shadow on global food security.

The Trump administration has told Washington's G7 allies that it won’t support a statement condemning Russia’s recent deadly missile strike on Ukraine's Sumy, saying that it's “working to preserve the space to negotiate peace,” Bloomberg reports.

This Russian surrendered to Ukraine once, denounced the war and was eventually returned in a prisoner swap. He then tried to surrender again.

A Russian court has sentenced ex-soldier Roman Ivanishin to 15 years in prison for surrendering to Ukraine, trying to surrender again, and desertion. It's the first known conviction under a 2022 law criminalizing voluntary surrender.

The same woman, who was brought humanitarian aid by Ukrainian soldiers in the Kursk region, is now sitting and telling how terrible these Ukrainians are and how they kill everyone. As she claims, she speaks very honestly.

Kim Jong Un has become Putin’s sugar daddy.
📍The shells are transported by rail to warehouses near the Russian-Ukrainian border, mainly in Tikhoretsk.
📍In 2024 Russia independently produced 2-2.3 million shells and plans to increase the volume to 3 million per year in the future.

Ah, the fresh aroma of rotting garbage.
It’s one thing for this to happen in the middle of Siberia, where no one in Moscow cares about. But St. Petersburg is another story.
“Along with the sudden warming, residents of St. Petersburg were covered by a persistent smell of sewage, which can be felt in different areas of the city. City residents are complaining en masse on social networks about the unbearable stench.”
“The reasons may lie in the rotting of garbage and dumps due to the onset of warming. It is possible that the unpleasant smell may come from the city's rivers and canals.”
Rest in peace.
