"...#Putin propaganda here, and he’s been clinging to it since the beginning of the war: that he had to go into #Ukraine, #NATO is surrounding him, and that NATO support and #USA support for Ukraine just proves it’s the #West versus #Russia; it’s NATO versus Russia; it’s the US versus Russia. And it’s all a bunch of horse-hockey. There’s nothing to it. This is Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, pure and simple..."

yup

anyone who differs is a troll or an idiot

Here's what we're reading today:

The #UK disallowed the use of Storm Shadow missiles in the #Kursk incursion.

#Ukraine could use them to hit airfields and logistic hubs used by #Russia to fight back.

Around 1,000 square km of Russian territory is already under Kyiv’s control.

"This is Putin’s war against Russia. And if he doesn’t like it, if it’s making him a little uncomfortable, then there’s an easy solution: He can just get the hell out of Ukraine and call it a day."
- White House national security spokesperson John Kirby

By the way, #Putin announced the opening of the Army-2024 military-technical forum yesterday.

At this time, #Russian conscripts are being taken prisoner by the hundreds.

I wonder why the forum is not being held in #Kursk?

Ukrainian forces control about 1,000 square kilometers in Russia's Kursk Oblast as of Aug. 12, Ukraine's Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said.

As Kyiv's incursion continues into its seventh day, Syrskyi briefed President Zelensky on the "offensive operation" in Kursk Oblast.
This marks the first time both Zelensky and Ukraine's military leadership directly confirmed Ukrainian soldiers' presence on Russian soil.

I wonder what the real impact on (some) EU countries would be, if this means for boycott exemptions were finally destroyed...
Far too many riches still keep flowing to Moscow as payment for #FossilFuels, thus the #EU is still partly financing #Putler's imperialist aggression on its declared "brothers" in #Ukraine.

#WarInUkraine

I heard that only about 2,000 #Ukrainian soldiers are in the #Kursk region. This means 2.78 square kilometers per soldier to "hold" on average.

Sounds pretty thinly stretched to me.

OFC, the troops will be concentrated in convoys, but even so, how much longer can this admirable diversion continue.

More importantly, how quickly can the invading forces retreat to #Ukraine once the #Kremlin has redeployed enough troops to the region to repell this brazen attack?


Ukraine Occupies 720 sq. Km!

The area of ​​hostilities in Kursk region is currently 720 km², it has grown by 70 km per day!

Two Kursk grandmothers stop and talk to Ukrainian soldiers.

The majority of Kursk residents speak Ukrainian, not Russian.

This MAY be why so many Russians are surrendering to Ukrainians without a fight.

A close-up shot of the cooling tower set on fire by the Russians at the Zaporizhzhia NPP.

The cooling tower is concrete. Russia placed a large amount of old car tires and set it on fire.

I believe the action was a Putin warning to Ukraine to stay away from the Kursk NPP.

No one ever imagined thousands of Russians surrendering without putting up a fight. Nothing. Russia is disintegrating in front of our eyes!

👉 Russia’s soldiers will not fight… Truly incredible. Ruzzia is collapsing.

Warum sollten wir die #Ukraine den Ruzzenfaschisten ausliefern, oder #Israel den durchgeknallten Islamisten? Was dann passiert, haben wir in Butscha, Irpin, Kramatorsk, oder am 07.10.23 gesehen.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

The Red Cross’s job is to monitor/facilitate international law.

In #Ukraine, it’s obvious that it has failed.

Meet Illia: His family didn't know he was alive because the Red Cross lost his info while he was a POW.


All those who say they are for peace in the #Russia-#Ukraine war now have the perfect opportunity to appeal to both countries to withdraw their forces to the internationally-recognised border.

Irina #Scherbakowa: "Ich glaube nicht, dass - falls er [#Putin] etwa im Amt sterben sollte - die Menschen [in #Russland] danach auf die Straßen gehen und rufen werden: 'Hurra, der Diktator ist tot, jetzt beginnt die Demokratie!' ... Der Krieg gegen die #Ukraine ist stark mit der Figur Putins verbunden. Und die Frage wird [nach Putin] sein: Wird der Krieg weitergeführt? Oder werden doch langsam Verhandlungen mit dem Westen einsetzen?"

#Slovakia earns up to US$1.5 billion on transit and resale of Russian gas, this was said by Serhiy #Makogon headed the Gas Transport System Operator of #Ukraine (#OGTSU) in an interview.

Russia struggles to repel deep incursion by Ukraine.

Hm. Looks like the Ukrainian forces are still advancing. They are now close to Korenevo with a strategically important railroad.

Väldigt glada nyheter, genialiskt av Ukraina att anfalla och ockupera ryskt territorium om de skulle bli "tvingade" att förhandla i närtid.

If you haven’t been paying attention, #Ukraine launched a serious invasion into #Russia supported by around 6,000** (edit: sorry I can’t math) troops.

“It’s more clear by the hour that what’s happening in Kursk isn’t a raid: it really is an invasion.”

#FactCheck

#Trump claimed that the US wouldn’t have experienced “any #inflation” had it not been for “bad #energy problems” during the #Biden admin.

False.

He appeared to be referencing the spike in gas prices that occurred after #Russia invaded #Ukraine in Feb 2022. That contributed to inflation at the time, but it was trending higher before then as a result of pent-up #demand from the #pandemic & #labor shortages.

In #Ukraine’s largest incursion into #Russia since Russia invaded Ukraine >2yrs ago, fighting continued on Thurs in the #Kursk region where Ukrainian troops were reportedly occupying several border villages & part of the town of #Sudzha. The bold cross-border op, now in its 3rd day, stunned #Moscow & raised questions about whether Kyiv’s troops had violated Western restrictions on the use of donated weapons & fighting vehicles.
