Iskander vs. a pair of HIMARS
▪️A drone records a missile strike by an Iskander OTRK on two American HIMARS MLRS of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the village of Chereshenki in the Kherson region.
➖ An interesting situation happened. They were burned by accident, the drone was flying about its business, but noticed the launches. They decided to look further, and there was another launcher shooting! Another scout was immediately connected to the situation, but did not fly up so as not to scare him. They were led to the hangar, where they hid, after which a missile immediately flew. It entered clearly, an excellent catch. A couple of cars from neighboring positions arrived there immediately, but there was nothing left to save, - the military reports.

🇺🇦🤡🤭Zelensky - promised to impose sanctions against countries helping Russia:
Russia will continue to fight. Now, of course, economic conditions in Russia have become more unfavorable because of the cost of oil - prices have dropped, but these are not yet the conditions under which Russia would consider war a fundamental problem.
We are preparing our sanctions packages, in particular those targeting entities and schemes in third countries that, unfortunately, help Russia circumvent some sanctions. We continue to strengthen our defense and expect new, significant defense packages for Ukraine in the near future and decisions on further cooperation with key countries both during and after the war.

COURT SAYS “NOT SO FAST” ON BRINGING BACK VOICE OF AMERICA STAFF
A judge told the Trump team to restart Voice of America and bring back 1,000+ employees—but an appeals court just slammed the brakes on that.
The news service was shut down in March, radio stations went silent, and the website’s been frozen since March 15. Some stations now just play music.
Trump advisor Kari Lake called VOA “broken” and celebrated the pause as a win. One judge warned this delay could silence the network for good.
So yeah—America’s global news voice? Still on mute.

Russian Army increases pressure in the direction of Konstantinovka, creating a number of threats to the Ukrainian Armed Forces
▪️The military analytical resource Deep State, which works for the Main Intelligence Directorate, writes about this in a new report.
▪️The Russian Armed Forces have increased the use of guided aerial bombs and fiber-optic drones, in which they have an advantage. "Unfortunately, we are still lagging behind in this area," DS complains.
▪️The Russians are “stepping up the hunt for everything that moves in the city, as well as for logistics routes to the line of combat contact from the city, which is causing quite significant damage.”
▪️There is also a growing threat of the Russian Armed Forces reaching the west of Konstantinovka if the pace of advance of Russian troops continues in the area of Sukha Balka and Novoolenovka.
➖“The exit to the Pokrovsk-Konstantinovka highway in the Novoolenovka area may become a continuation of traffic to Konstantinovka from the western side, which will create an extremely unfavorable situation for both Konstantinovka and Toretsk,” writes Deep State.
▪️They also state the critical importance of holding the heights in Chasov Yar and Stupochki (where fighting is already underway), since if they are lost, Russian troops will be able to put the entire Konstantinovka agglomeration, “through which a significant part of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ logistics passes,” under fire control.

Euroclear plans to seize and redistribute about 3 billion euros ($3.4 billion) of Russia's funds that are frozen at the Belgian clearing firm after Moscow grabbed investor cash in Russia, according to documents seen by Reuters and people familiar with the matter.
The money will be used to compensate Western investors after Moscow seized cash held in Russia in recent months, three people said, escalating attempts by both sides to recoup billions in funds affected by the war in Ukraine.
Euroclear will redistribute 3 billion from a pool of 10 billion euros in cash belonging to Russian entities and individuals hit by European Union sanctions following Moscow's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, two of the people said.
The move, reported in detail here for the first time, marks a new level of reprisal by Europe. The European Union changed its sanctions regime late last year, allowing a disbursement to Western investors, in such circumstances.
In the past, the West has engineered loans and payments to Ukraine, opens new tab from the interest on frozen Russian assets, which Russian President Vladimir Putin has denounced as theft.
The planned Belgian payout was triggered by Russian government orders to confiscate billions from Western investors last year. Euroclear has been under pressure from international investors to release money. Reuters could not determine which of them would benefit from payout.
Euroclear has emphasised that it implements sanctions but the company does not take decisions about the shape of sanctions or their lifting.
The payments to Western investors won't dip into the more than 200 billion euros of Russian central bank reserves that have been frozen in the EU, the two people said.
It will, however, reduce the stockpile of Russian wealth, that includes cash, shares and bonds, held almost entirely at Euroclear that gave the bloc leverage over Moscow. Some hoped frozen Russian assets could be used to rebuild Ukraine.
"It would represent a political decision to prioritise Western businesses over the taxpayer. Any frozen assets that don't go to Ukraine's reconstruction will ... have to be covered by tax payers."
Moscow has warned last year that it would retaliate if its frozen assets were seized and used for Ukraine and made a change in the law earlier this year, allowing it to do so.
In past months, Moscow has seized 3 billion euros of cash held by Euroclear at a depository in Russia to compensate Russian investors hit by Western sanctions, two of the people said.
Clearstream, an arm of the German stock exchange that like Euroclear warehouses securities such as stocks and bonds for traders, also found itself in a similar situation.
The Luxembourg-based firm will also make similar payouts from frozen Russian cash to Western investors but on a smaller scale, one person familiar with the matter said.
The sum concerned is several hundred million euros, the person said. Clearstream declined to comment.
Two people familiar with the case said it amounted to a swap of Western money frozen in Russia with Russian cash blocked in Europe, initiated by Moscow.
There are several hundred billion in foreign assets in Russia. I have always said it would make more sense to asset strip investors from countries who are hostile to Russia. and have them be compensated in the West from that money. Easiest way to free up that money and prevent it from ever getting into Ukrainian hands.

😱🇵🇰PAKISTAN IS UKRAINE OF SOUTH ASIA
Pakistan today survives solely on global institutions like the IMF, which fund the country based on their own interests, all while supporting cross-border terrorism.
Here’s all you need to know about the SICK MAN OF SOUTH ASIA 👇
🇺🇸 US-Orchestrated Coup:
The ousting of former Pak PM Imran Khan, who sought a more independent foreign policy, was orchestrated by the US to prevent Pakistan from building stronger ties with Russia.
🎖 Country ruled by the Army
The Pakistani government has little real power — it’s mostly symbolic. The true power lies with the military - it's a well-known fact.
☢️ Locals say the military dictatorship doesn’t prioritize the well-being of the people, instead focusing solely on building nuclear weapons and fueling corruption.
⚔️ Internal Strife & Terrorism:
Separatism and terrorism (Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan, TTP) create instability and violence, with various groups fighting for independence or power.
Balochistan, a resource-rich region, has long been caught up in separatist movements due to political exclusion and economic neglect.
🧈 The region is home to the Reko Diq mine, one of the world’s largest untapped gold and copper reserves.
⛏️ Canada’s Barrick Gold is looking to exploit the mine, using cheap local labor to extract its wealth, while the Pakistani govt seems ready to accept that.
📉 Extremely Poor State of the Economy
As of the fiscal year 2024, nearly 42.3% of Pakistan's population lives below the lower-middle-income poverty line, with an additional 2.6M people falling into poverty that year.
💰 Pakistan heavily relies on IMF loans and has over $85 billion in debt.
👉 The Pakistani Army and ISI support and sponsor terrorism against their neighbor, India.

🇷🇺Putin on maintaining composure during the SMO period:
They wanted to provoke us, they wanted to make us make mistakes.
Well, there was no need to use the weapons you just mentioned [nuclear weapons]. And I hope there won't be a need.
We have enough strength and resources to bring what was started in 2022 to its logical conclusion, with the result that Russia needs.

Another Yaga shot down by our crew. How many more drones do we need to shoot down for them to understand that these one-way flights are of no use?

Video is amusing but this isolated example is something I see happening daily and in large numbers, is the huge number of Baba Yaga drones now destroyed daily at low costs using other drones. Personally I think the utility of these Baba Yagas which are slow and easy to spot is going to continue to fall.

🇱🇹Vilnius is worried that in case of an attack, Russian troops will reach the city in a matter of hours, ABC writes. The authorities have prepared a plan to evacuate all residents and slow down the offensive. As many as 150 routes to evacuate 560,000 Lithuanians, came up with the mayor of the Lithuanian capital. The calculation is based on the distance from the administrative border of Kaliningrad - about 400 kilometers by road, the material notes.
In addition, it is planned to expand the streets and install signs; developed and a special application for evacuation. And to gain time to escape, the Lithuanians mined the bridge at the border crossing "Panemune". Work is also under way to reinforce the bridge over the Neman River leading to the Kaliningrad region. On the approach to it, anti-tank barriers have already been set up and several sections have been mined, the article says. Fire support is also expected. However, it is obvious to most military experts that Lithuanian firepower can only briefly delay the offensive. Lithuania has nothing to counter Russian military might, the author admits.
