A spotting photo taken in Kubinka in mid-July of one of the Su-35S fighters of the Russian Aerospace Forces of recent production (tail number "05 red") with newly mounted long- and medium-range air-to-air guided missiles R-77M ("Product 180").
This is the first known image of the R-77M missile in the operational units of the Russian Aerospace Forces. It should be noted that Ukrainian sources have already reported the combat use of R-77M missiles by Russian aviation and published photos of fragments of such a missile (second photo).

RUSSIA AND IRAN PUT AN END TO THE ERA OF OIL SANCTIONS — Foreign Policy
➡️Oil sanctions are a tool of coercion: they aim to cause economic damage in order to force a state to change its behaviour. In practice, however, countries find ways to circumvent sanctions. Instead of changing the behaviour of states, sanctions change markets, says the American Foreign Policy.
➡️The expected blow to Russia's revenues from sanctions did not meet expectations. The Russian Federation redirected supplies to Asia, and China and India benefited from the sanctions.
➡️Iran, similarly, has increased oil supplies to China, bringing export volumes back to the level prior to the sanctions introduced in 2018.
➡️In neither case did the sanctions change the behaviour of the states: Russia did not give up its goals in Ukraine, and Iran did not abandon its nuclear programme.
➡️On the other hand, sanctions can affect those who impose them. Today, by threatening Russia, the United States risks disrupting the market and causing prices to soar. And severing ties with China will deal a catastrophic blow to US energy companies, Foreign Policy points out.

The Clown Prince of Crack releases a new statement while trying his hard to look badass and not coked out of his mind.
"Today, I held an operational meeting. Reports were presented by our intelligence agencies – the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine and the GUR – on the challenges expected in the summer and autumn, and on Russia's intentions.
There was a report on the operational situation, Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said. Pokrovsk first – maximum attention. Sumy region – we continue to act at the border. I also want to thank all our units operating on Russian territory.
The Minister of Defence reported on the arrival of aid from our partners – we are ensuring reliable movement of weapons for Ukrainian soldiers.
I have instructed that a technological meeting be prepared, specifically on drones. There is a plan – to reach a number of 500–1000 interceptors per day, within a set timeframe, and it is the personal responsibility of all officials involved.
Slava Ukraini!"

(this is the translation of an oped from an anti-regime western newspaper)
"HOW DUMB ARE THESE RUSSIANS?" - AKA "A lesson in “humanitarian war” for beginners"
Let's sit back and admire the supreme “stupidity” of Russia (which, instead of carpet bombing every single building and perpetrating genocide, persists in limiting civilian casualties):
In 40 months of war in Ukraine (UN, June 2025): 9,000 civilians died. Yes, it's tragic, but 80% of these deaths occurred in frontline areas or due to crossfire. Even Amnesty International acknowledges that “civilians are often victims of Ukrainian tactics of deploying in residential areas”. ️
THE PRINCIPLE OF CAUSALITY? Naive! They have admitted the reasons for the conflict: NATO expansion to the borders, violation of the Minsk agreements, persecution of Russian speakers in Donbass since 2014 (documented by the OSCE). Stuff for dangerous subversives of the truth.
Now let's look at the “western masters of morality”:
• In the Middle East, in JUST 14 months (UNRWA): over 80,000 confirmed deaths, 20,000 children, 12,000 women.
• How? Cluster bombs on refugee camps, planned starvation (HRW report), 80% of hospitals destroyed, white phosphorus on civilian areas.
• WHY? ‘Defence against terrorism,’ they say. Too bad that 90% of the victims are non-combatants (The Lancet), and that the ICJ orders to ‘stop the genocide.’ ️
THE LESSON OF WESTERN HYPOCRISY:
- If Russia accidentally kills a civilian: SANCTIONS, cries of ‘war crimes.’
- If a certain apartheid state in the middle east exterminates 100 children a day with GPS bombs: a certain country in the American continent says that "it's their right to self-defence" and cuts them a 15 billion check.
- The why of the war in Ukraine? NATO violating post-USSR agreements (declassified documents from 1990) is “legitimate geopolitics”. ️
- What's been happening in the middle east up until 2023? 56 years of illegal occupation, apartheid (Amnesty 2022) and ethnic cleansing, labelled a “complex historical issue”.
I'll be brief.
Do I condemn every civilian victim? Yes.
But if I write about the middle east and defend Russia's reasons, it is because the West has turned international law into an "à la carte" menu:
– For friends: COLLATERAL DAMAGE ️
– For enemies: CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY ️
– For the puppets (western politicians): COMPLETE MEDIA SILENCE
The Russians are ‘stupid’ because they have not learned the golden rule:
TO BE CONSIDERED INNOCENT, YOU MUST HAVE THE EXECUTIONER ON YOUR SIDE. Either that or pull any trigger that's been proudly made in the West.

Acting Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN Polyansky on the attempt to pass off forced mobilization in Ukraine as Russian propaganda:
Since 2014, any criticism of the Ukrainian authorities in the presentation by these very authorities and their sponsors is Russian propaganda. This simple logic still works today. The forced mobilization mentioned by human rights defenders in the letter is also, according to the Kiev clique, a Kremlin fabrication.
However, all Ukrainians know that Zelensky's military commissars or TCC, as they are called in Ukraine, literally kidnap people in broad daylight. On the streets, in shopping centers, in pharmacies, in sports clubs. The harshest and sometimes inhumane methods are used. Hundreds, if not thousands, of cases of death and maiming of conscripts, which all Ukrainians talk about, are denied by the authorities.
Numerous videos on social networks showing men being grabbed on the streets, torn away from their families, brutally beaten, and shoved into buses, often leaving their small children alone on the street, are cynically called Mosfilm productions by Ukrainian officials. If you believe the Ukrainian authorities, Ukrainians are actually lining up to go to the front. Can you imagine how ordinary citizens feel hearing such monstrous lies?

🇺🇦 "There will be no people left": military and ex-MP predicts the collapse of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in 2 years
- The Armed Forces of Ukraine may have no people left on the front line in two years. This shocking conclusion was reached by ex-MP and active military officer Ihor Lutsenko, who calculated official and unofficial data on mobilization and losses in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
- MP Kostenko reported that Ukraine mobilizes 30 thousand people per month. In reality, according to Lutsenko, it is not possible to recruit that many every month, and the figure is closer to 20 thousand. Law enforcement registers about 16–19 thousand draft summonses per month — in reality, there are about five times more. Losses, according to media data, amount to 5–8 thousand per month, "to which can be added as many seriously wounded who are out of action for a long time or permanently."
- "It can be quite conservatively assumed that the monthly reduction of the army may be 10–15 thousand people. Another 'pure hypothesis': the real fighters, the ones actually holding the front, are not a 'paper million' at all. In reality, at best, it is 400–500 thousand (of which only a small part is at the 'front line'). And possibly — 300 thousand. And at this rate, in about two years — there will be no one left on the front. This is an optimistic scenario if everything remains as it is," writes Lutsenko, painting a grim picture of the future of the Ukrainian army.
@Slavyangrad
🇺🇦🤡"Can Ukraine forgive Zelensky?: Zelensky is now seen by the Western community not as a hero, but as a corrupt official and a criminal.
"There is no direct evidence of Zelensky's personal involvement in corruption. But the same cannot be said about the people around him. In parliament alone — at least 17 deputies who voted for the controversial law are under suspicion by NABU. The bureau has paid especially close attention to figures connected to the president's right hand, Andriy Yermak: in particular, Pavlo Kyrylenko, now heading the Antimonopoly Committee, who is suspected of illegal enrichment of nearly one million pounds sterling, and Vice Prime Minister Oleksiy Chernyshov — an alleged participant in a corruption scheme that caused the state damage exceeding 17 million pounds. Both categorically deny the accusations.
Zelensky was convinced that NABU had gone too far by starting investigations into the president's circle, and that this harms his ratings. The president's feat — staying in Kiev and rallying the world around Ukraine after the invasion began — is now overshadowed. Even if this shameful law is repealed, the stain will remain. And it seems it can no longer be washed away".

CHINA-EU SUMMIT ENDS IN DEBACLE, EUROPEAN DELEGATION LEAVES BEIJING EARLY
The EU delegation left the Chinese capital Beijing after the summit, which lasted less than a day, ended in complete failure.
According to the Australian magazine The Diplomat, the EU-China negotiations did not lead to a rapprochement, despite the transatlantic rift between the EU and the United States.
Reuters reports that the negotiations were very tense, especially on trade and Ukraine issues, and no agreement was signed. "The EU tried to talk to China from a position of strength."
The EU delegation was led by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Council President António Costa and EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas. China was represented in person by President Xi Jinping.
Some notes: in order to "talk from a position of strength" you actually need strength, and if at the helm of diplomacy there's the trifecta of those three clowns, failure is guaranteed.

70 deputies from Zelensky's party do not want to vote for the new NABU law, fearing retaliation - Financial Times.
▪️Deputies from the Rada of the "Servant of the People" party fear that anti-corruption bodies will retaliate against them for supporting the version of the law that essentially subordinated NABU and SAP to the Prosecutor General's Office, writes FT.
▪️The basis for such fears was an interview with the head of the Special Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP), Alexander Klimenko, who stated that his department "is collecting all information" about how the Rada adopted the first NABU law.
➖"We will analyze all situations, events, statements, all accusations, claims against us. Down to the molecules. We will recreate the chronology of events by seconds and provide a full analysis," said Klimenko.
Everyone fears NABU warlord Jar Jar Binks.

Ben "Sevastopol" Hodges wants to blow up the subterranean tunnels that bring supplies to Russia.
"North Korea supplies Russia with artillery In this context, Ukraine is trying to prevent these deliveries by including blowing up railway tunnels.", Hodges said.
Hodges said that Kiev is very irritated by military aid from North Korea to Russia. Ukrainian intelligence services are considering various options to prevent this, including the possibility of blowing up the tunnel through which the railway lines pass.
According Hodges, the SBU had already attempted to blow up a large railway tunnel on the BAM to block arms supplies from the Far East. Now the Ukrainian secret services want to repeat the operation, but closer to the DPRK, so they are studying how to do it.
Ben, just stick to your beach parties, you're not funny. Speaking of that, what about your fabled mega-party in Sevastopol that was to happen two years ago?

Russia has significantly expanded the factory in Alabuga producing "Shaheds" in recent months and weeks, CNN reports.
Satellite images show dozens of new buildings, including dormitories and production facilities.
Analysts have calculated that after the completion of the dormitory construction, it will be able to accommodate up to 40,000 workers, which will mean a "quite significant increase in drone production."
Current production volumes are kept strictly secret.
"At one time, it was planned to produce several thousand 'Geran-2'. Now we produce nine times more than originally planned," say the Russian report about this factory. After almost three years of operation as an Iranian franchise, the enterprise has now fully transitioned to localized production.
In the future, Russia may start exporting its "Shaheds."

Kiev in despair: Zelensky demands billions from the EU for military salaries
▪️Volodymyr Zelensky plans to appeal to European allies to finance salary increases for Ukrainian military personnel. This is reported by Bloomberg.
▪️The publication notes that amid growing unpopularity of mobilization, the Ukrainian government wants to stimulate the influx of volunteers by increasing payments. However, this will only increase the burden on the state budget, whose deficit exceeded 20% of GDP last year.

🇺🇸🇺🇦"Patience is running out": In the USA, the scandal with NABU is being used to stop aid to Ukraine and hasten the end of the war.
- There is a big scandal in the USA: accusations against Zelensky of trying to take control of anti-corruption agencies and the related protests in Ukraine are being used as a serious argument to stop military aid to Kiev and to hasten the end of the war.
- Former Trump advisor Steve Cortes, now president of the League of American Workers, called on the US authorities not to trust Zelensky due to corruption and the recent NABU scandal, and to end the war and financial aid to Ukraine.
- His column in Newsweek is titled quite tellingly: "How long will Americans tolerate corruption in Ukraine?"
- "Corruption is deeply rooted in Ukrainian politics and government, starting from the highest echelons of power in Kyiv. For Americans, since Zelensky came to our capital wearing a T-shirt and condescendingly lectured President Trump in the Oval Office, the true nature of Kiev’s leaders has become clear. Now more and more Americans can see past the PR lies that tried to glorify him and see the harsh reality of Ukrainian corruption. Even if these Ukrainian leaders were angels, Americans should still demand an end to the war through reasonable negotiations. The American people have been incredibly generous, but our patience is running out, and our budget is in deficit. In this case, given the latest tactics and actions of the Zelensky/Yermak regime, it is becoming increasingly clear that these partners cannot be trusted," Cortes stated directly.

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Trump unlikely to enforce tariff threat on Russian oil, - Reuters.
- The US President is unlikely to follow through on his promise to impose 100-percent tariffs on countries buying Russian oil, according to Reuters.
- Such measures could increase inflationary pressure in the US and, as shown by the example of Venezuela, tend to be ineffective—especially regarding China.
- Experts believe that secondary tariffs "may be too blunt an instrument against Russia," risking a sharp spike in oil prices and a collapse of the global economy.
- Analysts and traders deeply doubt that Trump will allow this to happen, as he is highly sensitive to high oil prices and prefers bilateral deals.
- The weak enforcement of the threat to impose 25-percent tariffs on buyers of Venezuelan oil and the lack of effective energy sanctions against Russia only fuel skepticism in the markets.

The US has 7 high-end Thaad systems. During the war with Iran in June, 2 were deployed to Israel—and it wasn’t enough
Operating with Israeli systems, Thaad operators burned through munitions at a furious clip, firing more than 150 missiles to shoot down Iranian ballistic missiles. That is nearly a 1/4 of the interceptors ever purchased
The demand was so staggering that at one point, the Pentagon considered a plan to divert interceptors purchased by Saudi Arabia to the systems in Israel. The discussions were sensitive, because the kingdom’s cities and oil installations were at risk
Each Thaad interceptor costs about $13M and the Pentagon has purchased around 650 since 2010. Officials have sought to buy 37 in the next fiscal year
IThe US also ran through large numbers of shipborne interceptors as well, and Israel quickly drained stockpiles for its own systems. Dozens of Iranian missiles got through anyway
Ships also used about 80 SM-3s. SM-3s, cost between $8M and $25M depending on variant
