For the first time in over two years, Japan has received Russian crude—on a blacklisted ship. Taiyo Oil took 600,000 barrels via the Voyager, sanctioned by both the US & EU.
Tokyo cited energy security. Crude loaded May 25, docked June 10.

"If mobilization stops, there will be no good for either the draft dodgers or those at the front. The enemy will destroy everyone - even those who think they will have time to escape abroad," - the head of the Council of Reserves of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Tymochko convinces fellow citizens to love and respect military commissars.

Got Samarium?
China’s strict controls on the export of heat-resistant magnets made with rare earth minerals have exposed a major vulnerability in the military supply chain.
Without these magnets, the US and itsallies will struggle to refill recently depleted inventories of military hardware.
A specific kind of rare earth crucial for the manufacture of magnets for missiles, fighter jets, smart bombs and a lot of other military gear.
China produces the entire world’s supply of samarium, an obscure rare earth metal used almost entirely in military applications. Samarium magnets can withstand temperatures hot enough to melt lead without losing their magnetic force. Essential for withstanding the heat of fast-moving electric motors in cramped spaces like the nose cones of missiles
Interruption in samarium supplies comes as the US and its allies are rushing to rebuild inventories of advanced weaponry. These stocks have been severely depleted by shipments to Ukraine and, for the US, to Israel.

Slovakia will not support a new package of EU sanctions against Russia, the country's Prime Minister Robert Fico said.
"The Slovak Republic will not support the upcoming 18th sanctions package against the Russian Federation unless the European Commission provides it with a real solution to the crisis situation that Slovakia will find itself in after the complete cessation of gas, oil and nuclear fuel supplies from Russia," Fico wrote on Facebook.
Let us recall that today the European Commission officially confirmed that it proposes to introduce sanctions against the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the new sanctions package, as well as to reduce the “price ceiling” on Russian oil from $60 to $45 per barrel and to ban the purchase of petroleum products from Russian oil.

The dense flow of Bogdans lost by the enemy continues.

A Vesti Nedeli correspondent descends into the dungeons of an assault team near Volchansk, deep underground, where an entire fortified area with rooms, tunnels, traps and false floors is hidden.
Here they live, fight, relax and drink coffee in quiet moments.
The soldiers say: this is their home.
And the enemy above has no idea that there is an entire military city beneath them.
Ukrainian speech gives way to panic as close combat begins.
In the nearby Sumy region, Russian paratroopers from the 83rd Brigade assault Ukrainian Armed Forces positions and take prisoners.
One of them admits, Thank you for your humanity.
No one needs this war...." What is happening in the forests of the Kharkiv region?
Why does the enemy have no chance to break through ? And how do the fighters survive under constant shelling?

Foreign analysts believe that if the chain of Ukrainian strongholds on the yellow line falls, then a huge sector between Konstantinovka and Toretsk will fall into the hands of the Russian army and the front in this area will collapse. Everything that is marked in red is already under fire or partial physical control of Russian troops. Further on are the approaches to Konstantinovka.

Mini add-on to night strikes
"Gerani" hit another object, namely - the building of the state company "Artem" in Kiev . They are engaged there in a bunch of different tasks of the Ukrainian military industry - the production of missiles, devices, complexes, maintenance, etc.
- It is noteworthy that sometimes NASA satellites record a fire below the territory of a state company, although the video clearly shows a hit on this very object ( behind the Business Center ).
That's how things are 👀

'We need to clarify what 'Ukrainian victory' means' - Pentagon chief Hegseth
What are you doing to establish a relationship with Ukraine and not turn away from it? What are you doing to help them win? This is the most important test of freedom for NATO in my lifetime. And we must help the Ukrainians win.
- I think we need to clarify what 'victory' means. President Trump is committed to peace. He is committed to ending the killing. This administration is committed to peace, to ending the killing. And we believe that is in America's interest.
Did you just abandon Ukraine? Mr. Secretary, did you just abandon Ukraine?
- I didn’t abandon Ukraine.
Have you been to Ukraine?
- No, madam.
Ukrainian victory… if its like Ukrainian statistics where they’ve “killed” 40 million Russians and 20,000 jets then Ukraine can claim they conquered South America, recovered the Holy Grail, and fought off a space alien invasion.

New round of Russian-American talks to take place in Moscow "very soon"
A preliminary decision has been made to move the talks from Istanbul to Moscow and Washington, Russian Ambassador to the United States Alexander Darchiev said. The talks will focus on "diplomatic irritants."
The first talks took place in February after the change of US administration. The second meeting took place in April. After the last consultation, the parties agreed on a simplified regime for the movement of diplomats and the development of a "road map" for confiscated Russian diplomatic property

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban responded to Volodymyr Zelensky's interview with a Hungarian media outlet .
"Zelensky attacked us because Hungarians do not want to die for Ukraine. We do not want our children to return from the front in coffins and for Hungarian money to go to Ukraine!" he wrote on Facebook.
Let us recall that in this interview Zelensky stated that Orban’s policy is directed against Ukraine.

Ukrainian Roman D., 30, who is suspected of stabbing five people in Amsterdam last March, deserted from the Ukrainian army and wanted to go to prison in Europe.
This was reported by the Dutch publication NOS.
The media spoke with Roman’s former comrades-in-arms, and they said that even before his departure from Ukraine, he repeatedly expressed a desire to end up in a European prison.
"He often said that he wanted to kill someone in Norway so that he could go to prison and be looked after for the rest of his life. He studied the laws of different countries to understand how he could get a life sentence. He had long shown signs that something was wrong with his mental state. When I first heard what Roman had done in Amsterdam, I thought: 'An idiot's dream has come true,'" said one of the soldiers who knew Roman.

CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund rips VDL’s math abilities
Head of EU Commission von Der Leyen is ill-informed & bad at math.
She claims Russian oil & gas make up 1/3 of Russia’s budget.
Wrong. It’s 1/5 — 8.3T out of 38.5T rubles for 2025. That’s 21.6%, not 33%.
If you're going to wage an economic war, at least get your numbers right.

Authorities in Kharkov and Dnepropetrovsk regions are expanding mandatory evacuation zones
▪️Considering the security situation in the Kupyansk district, during a meeting of the Defense Council of the Kharkov region, a decision was made on the mandatory evacuation of civilians from 7 settlements of the Shevchenkivska community. These are the villages: Baranovka, Berezovka, Novonikolaevka, Podobovka, Staroverovka, Duvanka and Fedorovka.
▪️Yesterday, the Dnepropetrovsk OVA also discussed expanding the evacuation. It was about the forced evacuation of families with children from the frontline areas of the Sinelnykovsky district.
I’d make it bigger. 😎

The Kiev regime has come up with a new scheme to get rid of the UOC clergy. They simply were not included in the list of people exempt from mobilization.
'This list includes many thousands of religious organizations (i.e. parishes, communities, monasteries, etc.) of practically all faiths, confessions, and jurisdictions. Except for one single one - the UOC. The communities of Jehovah's Witnesses or the Society for Krishna Consciousness are now officially recognized as 'critically important for the economy and life of the population of Ukraine', but only the parishes of the UOC - no. Now if you are a priest of the UOC, you have to choose: either to the OCU, or to the front'

On the rig, in addition to a bunch of GUR employees, there were many interesting things - a launcher for naval UAVs, electronic warfare systems, communication systems, as well as a drone refueling point, in general, the place was important for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. By the way, at the time of the strike, they were preparing to launch naval drones on the territory of Crimea, but now they are no longer preparing...

See those firefighting foams well for decades they were produced with PFOS and PFOA. As The Guardian noted this year:
Pollution from these substances in soils and water is now widespread across the globe, and has been detected in animals, human organs and blood. They are part of a wider family of more than 15,000 chemicals known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) but popularly called “forever chemicals”.
Experts have described PFAS pollution as “one of the greatest threats facing mankind.
European firms are now exploiting the shortages in Ukraine by dumping environmentally harmful substances in the country. Harmful and environmentally destructive PFAS ‘forever chemicals’ - the PFOA variant in this instance - are being sent to Ukraine, though they are now banned in the EU. This chiefly involves firefighting foams nearing their expiry date plus products for civilian use.
