Note that since May of this year, US military command has been trying to convince #spacex to stop #Russia from illegally utilising #starlink in it’s also illegal invasion of Ukraine.

Since Starlink is still working for Russia, and Shaheed drones with terminals onboard continue raining down on Ukraine, we know SpaceX isn’t co-operating.

If they aren’t cooperating, we also know who is ultimatlty responsible for that.

For those who don't know #NorthKorea troops have recently been found to be operating in #Ukraine

And now a #SouthKorea lawmaker suggests sending, uh, "observers" to Ukraine to, uh, "observe" North Korean military actions in service of #Russia

I did not have "Russia v Ukraine as a #proxywar between North and South Korea" on my bingo card

'Han Ki-ho: “North Korea is sending 10,000 troops, let’s send an observation team to Ukraine too”'

This is what Sverdlikovo in Russia's Kursk region looks like now. Russian troops are destroying their own towns and villages.

Russians are unable to bring the village back under their control, so they are turning it into a "scorched earth". They are systematically pelting Sverdlikovo with KABs and 120-mm mines.

In a stunning report for NBCNews, Brandy Zadrozny reveals step-by-step how Russian lies are spoon-fed to powerful right-wing influencers, who then eagerly blast the propaganda out to the masses while simultaneously attacking the credibility of real journalists. #Russia https://www.nbcnews.com/specials/russian-disinformation-2024-election-storm-1516/index.html


Vladimir Putin desperately needs Donald Trump to win the election.

Trump is easily pliable with a compliment, admires Putin as his hero, and will hand Putin the keys to Ukraine the day he is sworn into office.

So, how does Putin help Trump?

#KamalaHarris’ Camp Sounds the Alarm After #Trump Says #Military Should ‘Handle’ #Democrats

#Harris’ campaign has sent a warning to Americans after Trump suggested the US military should be used on #citizens who disagreed w/him in an interview on Sunday, calling #liberals “the enemy from within” & claiming they posed more of a threat than migrants [& even #China, #NorthKorea & #Russia].

"They laid hoses for water because they are afraid to fly close on helicopters. It's explosive."

Video captured near the burning oil depot in Feodosiia, Russia appeared online.

For several years now, Russian propagandists have been talking about a "big war between Russia and NATO countries."
In yesterday's video, Solovyev again talks about a large war and prepares the Russian population for future food rations and the fact that teenagers will have to make shells in factories.
For now, he thinks it is still good and fun to live in Russia.
They are preparing for an even larger and more horrible war in Europe.
