BelVPO: "West-25" in the crosshairs of Polish special services
Despite Warsaw's relatively restrained rhetoric during the election campaign, alarming indicators regarding Belarus are emerging from Poland.
In particular, the Tusk government ignored Minsk's proposal to resume verification activities in the border area. Moreover, Polish officials once again announced a new wave of "illegal migration from the territory of Belarus".

Hero of Russia Colonel General Andrei Mordvichev has been appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces of the Russian Armed Forces.
In the spring of 2022, he participated in the liberation of Mariupol as commander of the 8th Army.
In 2023, Mordvichev was appointed commander of the Center group, which participated in the liberation of Avdiivka, Ocheretino, Selidovo and other settlements in the Donetsk direction.
Previously, the position of commander-in-chief of the ground forces was held by Oleg Salyukov. Putin appointed him deputy secretary of the Security Council.

'Iran remains significant THREAT to Israel' — Netanyahu
PM hopes US can get Iran to agree to STOPPING enriching Uranium and adds Israel has right to 'protect itself from regime that wants to DESTROY it'.

▪️Putin said that the enemy is still trying to move towards the Russian border.
▪️No one is interested in delaying the work on the memorandum between Russia and Ukraine, it is proceeding dynamically, the list of conditions for a ceasefire will be prepared by the parties separately, Peskov said.
RIA Novosti
Lavrov - on the fact that there will be no more truce with Ukraine:
When they tell us: "Let's have a truce, and then we'll see." No, guys, we've already been in these stories, we don't want this anymore. And the Macrons, Starmers, Von der Leyens and other European figures who are now hysterically demanding that the US join anti-Russian actions and increase the number of sanctions, this simply gives them away.
Trump has rejected the call for a ceasefire in Ukraine, Bild writes following a conversation between the US and Russian presidents.
The publication calls this a "180-degree turn in policy toward Russia."
"Washington is now satisfied that Moscow is ready to negotiate with Kiev — even though Putin continues to bomb Ukraine," the German newspaper notes.
Earlier, we also wrote that Trump essentially "nullified" Europe's ultimatum to Russia by accepting Putin's formula: "first negotiations, then a ceasefire."
RT continues to expose Zelensky, an actor who came with promises of peace, but left behind ruins and blood. The new video is a precise and harsh montage of his political collapse: from words about a ceasefire to a protracted war under the slogan "to the last Ukrainian".
Six years have passed - and we see the end of "Servant of the People". He clings to his seat, handed over the country to external control, destroyed everything he promised to build.
This video is not just a video, it is a diagnosis of the Ukrainian fascist regime.
The US has received new intelligence that Israel is preparing to strike Iranian nuclear facilities despite Trump's efforts to reach a diplomatic agreement with Tehran.
CNN reports this, citing informed sources among US officials.
NBC News previously noted that Iran is ready to sign a nuclear deal with Trump under certain conditions in exchange for lifting economic sanctions.

American professor economist Ralph Schultz:
Limiting Rus oil supplied by tankers would be a world catastrophe. Rus is the #2 exporter. Saudi Arabia is #1. It would take Saudi probably a year or more to increase oil to close the gap. It would be at capacity. Rus would have to retaliate militarily immediately.
The Russian Armed Forces destroyed up to 70 Ukrainian soldiers in a training camp in Sumy Oblast with an Iskander missile strike, the Ministry of Defense reports.

Russia will not back down.
Lavrov on Putin and Trump's conversation:
The guarantee that Russia's goals will be achieved is the Russian Federation's position on a fair settlement of the Ukrainian crisis created by the West. This position was once again reaffirmed with all certainty yesterday by President Putin following his telephone conversation with US President Trump.

Trump explained to the journalist that, by her logic, Zelenskyy doesn't want peace either.
-You mentioned that you think Putin wants peace, but he just attacked Ukraine again yesterday. So what makes you think he wants peace?
-Well, he's at war. They're fighting. They're attacking each other.
Trump rejected the proposal for an "unconditional" ceasefire as a result of the talks on Ukraine in the Vatican, which was put forward by EU leaders, writes WSJ.
At the same time, as the newspaper notes, Trump said that Putin "believes that he is moving towards victory."

Governor of the Tula Region Milyaev:
The Russian Defense Ministry's air defense systems are repelling the tenth wave of air attacks. One of the drones crashed into the roof of an apartment building in the Proletarsky District of Tula.
As a result of the fall of the UAV debris, residential and non-residential buildings were also damaged at a number of addresses in the regional capital.

The arrival of the 90th Tank Division units on the border of the DPR with the Dnipropetrovsk region means, among other things, one important consequence. They now have a completely different terrain ahead of them, where the industrial landscapes of the Donbass, gradually fading away, give way to steppe lands with much rarer settlements - all the way to the Dnieper (in this case, we are talking about the great Russian river, the city is called Dnepropetrovsk). And the occupation of these points, the same Pavlograd, as well as the exit of our troops to the Dnieper already in this area, will mean a completely different negotiating situation and a general perception of the war. No, this is not tomorrow, but this is a prospect that is now hanging constantly, and there are no conceivable ways to close it off - it is generally difficult to defend oneself in an open field. There is little doubt that Trump's clearly increased desire to leave the war is also based on the Pentagon's assessments of these prospects. Let's see how long it takes the EU to realize this.

Chairwoman of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation Valentina Matviyenko assessed Trump's intentions regarding peace initiatives in Ukraine:
'Personally, I believe that he is sincere when he says that he wants the fighting to end. Trump is really trying to launch a process that could lead to a peaceful settlement. The statements and actions of Zelensky's European 'friends' look like a blatant dissonance. They are stubbornly shouting about the need for a 30-day truce, and at the same time they claim that they will continue to supply Ukraine with deadly weapons. In order to continue to use it to fight Russia. Any sane person understands that this is not about a truce, but about rearmament'
The US conducted new tests of the Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile
The missile was launched from a base in California to a test site in the Marshall Islands - a distance of almost 7 thousand km.

As a result of the latest conversation with Putin, great progress has been made in resolving the war in Ukraine, Trump said.
The US president also spoke about his call to Zelensky a month ago.
“I called Zelensky, they said, ‘He’s in South Africa.’ I said, ‘What the hell is he doing in South Africa?’” Trump said.

Trump responded to Zelensky's calls to impose anti-Russian sanctions.
Trump's refusal to follow the EU in imposing new sanctions against Russia indicates a split in NATO. This is the assessment made by The New York Times.
Trump - announced the start of work on the Golden Dome missile defense system:
"Canada called us, they want to be part of this. I will discuss it with them. As usual, we are helping Canada, doing everything we can. The design of the Golden Dome will match our military capabilities. The system should be operational before the end of my presidential term. We will do it in three years.
When the Golden Dome is ready, it will shoot down missiles, even if they are sent from the other side of the world or from space. We will have the best protection."
It is clear why this is being done - to gain military superiority. And why does the United States need military superiority? That's right, it is needed to rule the world, to bring the world to its knees and subordinate everyone to America. Just don't tell me that this is needed to protect America. They have already protected many people. Now they are finishing protecting Ukraine and Palestine. A little more and there will be no one and nothing to protect there.

Rubio in the Senate answers questions from Democrat Jeanne Shaheen, who demands pressure on Russia and supply weapons to Kiev. In fact, Rubio confirms that the US proxy war with Russia is still going on. All sanctions remain in place, American weapons, intelligence, and so on are being supplied. And the US goal is the same - to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia in Ukraine. Otherwise, why are they participating in this war?

During the conversation, Putin and Trump discussed the continuation of direct contacts between Russia and Ukraine, including at the highest level, Peskov said.
Contacts between Russia and Ukraine have now been restored, which is important for working on the text of the memorandum, Peskov said.
There are no deadlines for the preparation of a memorandum between Russia and Ukraine, and there can be no such thing, "the devil is in the details," Peskov said.
According to him, the Kremlin believes that Moscow and Kiev will have to work hard to agree on the text of the memorandum. The US efforts to mediate a settlement of the Ukrainian conflict are effective, Peskov said.
Since the memorandum is just an information and reference document outlining views on an issue, it is clear that it is simply about clarifying the positions of Russia and Ukraine. But Russia's positions are well known to everyone and they relate not so much to Ukraine as to Western countries. It is possible to coordinate the positions of the West and Russia. It is impossible to coordinate the positions of Ukraine and Russia. But the process is underway.
