For Those Who Might Be Wondering Why We Might Be In Ukraine

Europe’s €90 Billion Loan to Ukraine

Europe just approved a new $90b loan to fund the Ukrainian government for the next two years. The surface level implications are obvious, but the true significance of this loan goes far deeper than most people realize. I examine everything, and show why this is a game-changing event in the war.

Ukraine's need for support has dropped and in some cases they are exporting surplus military production
European Support has been increasing, with massive financial and military aid packages
The United States is not supporting Ukraine in any meaningful way but this is now irrelevant. The US has lost most of it's leverage over Ukraine.
Europe is now decisively behind Ukraine, and the odds are now that Ukraine will win the war.

 
Putin's Oil Empire In Ruins As Ukraine Strikes Back

For the second day in a row, the heart of Russia’s oil transport network is burning after Ukrainian strikes. What began as a major hit is now escalating, with secondary explosions and expanding fires at one of the country’s most critical oil transit facilities. The damage is no longer symbolic — it threatens real energy flows. Meanwhile, Belgorod is again under attack, exposing Russia’s inability to shield its own territory from sustained strikes.
Inside Russia, cracks are widening. Several prominent military bloggers are openly refusing to repeat Kremlin narratives and are turning against the Ministry of Defense, accusing officials of incompetence and deception. The information space Moscow once tightly controlled is becoming harder to manage.

The Kremlin is scrambling. State media is now promoting claims of an “underground city” supposedly built to ensure survival under attack, while Vladimir Putin warns that Ukraine is preparing to use nuclear weapons against Russia — a familiar escalation of rhetoric designed to frighten domestic audiences and the West.

In Kursk, residents who have lost homes and livelihoods are demanding that authorities rescue them, as regional officials struggle to respond. At the same time, repression inside Russia is intensifying. Courts are handing down prison sentences of more than a decade for ordinary social media posts. Universities are being raided for new army recruits as manpower shortages deepen.

Years ago, in 1999, opposition politician Boris Nemtsov warned that Vladimir Putin would transform Russia into an increasingly closed and subordinate society. His words now sound less like prediction and more like documentation.

 
Explosions rock moscow. Smolensk region stops enjoying the SMO. Russia is collapsing.

Russia's population no longer liking war quite so much as it comes home.

This is fine example of how the filthy Zelensky treats his allies, fucks Slovakia and Hungary by damaging the oil pipeline that carried Russia oil to the land locked nation
Oh .... Slovakia was supplying emergency electricity to that jackass Zelensky.....so Zelensky says fuck my allies......
Oh my goodness. Nothing of the sort. Furst uo, Hungary and Slovakia can in no way be considred allies of Ukraine. They are openly aligned with Russia,

Second, RUSSIA hit the pipeline inside Ukraine. Shipments of Russian oil to Hungary and ⁠Slovakia have been cut off since Jan. 27, when a Russian drone strike hit pipeline equipment in western Ukraine. Hungary and Slovakia want UKRAINE to repair a pipeline hit by Russia!!!!!! Kyiv has already offered to help restore flows to Slovakia and Hungary via alternative routes.

During a press conference on Aug. 24, President Volodymyr Zelensky suggested that the future of the Druzhba oil pipeline—which delivers Russian oil to Hungary and Slovakia—may hinge on Hungary's position regarding Ukraine's accession to the European Union. "We have always supported friendship between Ukraine and Hungary," Zelensky said. "The existence of 'Druzhba' depends on the position of Hungary."

Orban bwetter make friendly and stopp crapping on Uraine or find himself oil from somewhere else. Actually, now that Ukraiine has blown the crap out of the ouning stations that feeds oil into the Druzhba peipeline, he BETTER fnd himself oil from somewhere else.
 
Rubio Says This Is ‘Pressure’ on Russia — Look Again

Rubio and Trump bullshitting again.

Rubio says the US is pressuring Moscow by not selling weapons to Russia and by not sanctioning Ukraine. Unbelievable how he responded to question on putting pressure on Moscow.

 
Russian Lines Are Breaking Across the Front

Kyiv Post special correspondents, Chuck Pfarrer and Jason Smart, provide a critical analysis of the systemic failures in the Russian military that are pushing the invaders toward a total front line collapse in 2026. In recent days, Ukraine successfully reclaimed 300 square kilometers (186 sq miles) near Huliapole after effectively neutralizing two Russian regiments. These tactical gains highlight a broader crisis of attrition at Pokrovsk. Pfarrer, a former Navy SEAL Squadron Leader, reveals that Russian casualties in that vicinity have surpassed 250,000, representing nearly 20% of all Russian forces lost since the invasion began. This signals a terminal decline in the Kremlin’s operational capacity.

The breakdown of these front lines is directly linked to the systemic rot and the total absence of a professional non-commissioned officer corps within the Russian ranks. Without this vital leadership layer, the army’s combat effectiveness has become nearly nonexistent as internal corruption and physical abuse of recruits outweigh tactical objectives. This lack of unit cohesion has driven morale to a historic low and leaves soldiers abandoned in hopeless frontal assaults without any operational support. As leadership fails on the field, the Russian state’s ability to even supply its troops is disintegrating under the weight of a national logistical crisis.

Russia’s logistical failures are now accelerating its defeat as the national railway system staggers under a $52 billion debt. With over 20,000 transport vehicles destroyed, the Kremlin has been forced into the desperate measure of using donkeys to move landmines and heavy munitions to the front. Pfarrer tells Jason Jay Smart how such profound military disasters in Russia have historically served as the direct precursor to radical political transformation. This report explains why the current combination of logistical ruin and structural collapse suggests a mortal wound for the ongoing invasion.

Fuck em.
If the countries are helping the invaders of Ukraine pay for their invasion, then they are the ones not being an ally.

Exactly. Orban has always been Putin's assboy and Fico is no different. From all the polls tho, Orban will be gone soon and the EU wll pressure Slovakia and Hungary the way they always have, until they fall in line.
 
Ukraine Is on the Move — and Russia Can’t Stop It

Ukraine is no longer reacting — it’s shaping the battlefield. Over the last several days, Ukrainian strikes and maneuvers show a clear shift in initiative, hitting Russia where it hurts most and forcing Moscow into defensive improvisation. This is the ZSU shaping and taking control of the battlefield - owning the strategic initiative is changing from Russia to Ukraine and Russia is now being forced to react. Factor in also that Russia is now losing 10k men a month more than they are receiving in replacement bodies and it's a downhill path.....

This video walks through what’s changing, why it matters, and what the current pattern of attacks tells us about where the war is heading next. No hype — just the evidence, the sequence, and the strategic implications.

 
Special Operations Forces Eliminate S-400 Battalion Commander in Crimea Along with Launcher

Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces destroyed a launcher and killed the commander of a Russian S-400 air defense missile battalion in temporarily occupied Crimea. The OSINT project KIU (Russian Officers Killed in Ukraine) reported that the strike targeted elements of Russia’s air defense system on the peninsula. The attack was carried out by drones on the night of February 25. In addition to the destroyed equipment, the occupying forces lost at least one officer – Lieutenant Colonel Khasan Tumgoev, the battalion commander. Local media in the Republic of Ingushetia, his home region, have also confirmed his death. Tumgoev was a graduate of the Yaroslavl Higher Military School of Air Defense. Before Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine, he took part in the Russian military operation in Syria.

Strike on the S-400 in Crimea

During the strike, a drone operated by Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces destroyed a self-propelled launcher of the invaders’ S-400 Triumf air defense missile system. The hit occurred near the village of Sofiivka in the Simferopol district. The Ukrainian drone struck the transport-launch containers holding the surface-to-air missiles. This triggered the ignition of the solid rocket fuel in their engines, resulting in the complete destruction of the vehicle. After that, the operators of the Special Operations Forces’ strike drones hunted down the 92N6E multifunctional radar, a key component of the S-400 system. This radar is responsible for detecting airborne targets, tracking and identifying them, and then locking onto them to guide surface-to-air missiles.

Another target of the Special Operations Forces’ drone was a Pantsir-S1 air defense system, which had been protecting key facilities and enemy air defense positions on the peninsula. It was specifically tasked with countering Ukrainian drones and missiles attacking Russian air defense systems and radars.

Just an example - Ukraine is now striking Russian daily and taking out ignificant military targets. As the Flamingo comes online and additional production is swet up for missiles and other weapon systems, Ukraine will only continue to grow in strength.
 
BELGOROD ON FIRE, SOCHI IN PANIC: NO SAFE REGIONS LEFT

More and more russian regions stop enjoying SMO as it returns back to their territories. Belgorod governor keeps whining about the kremlin indifference to the needs of the region, turned into a war zone. Sochi lost 30% of tourists in 2025 because of the constant drone visits and the collapse of the russian civilian aviation.

 
"20 MILLION WILL DIE. SO BE IT": Putin's Plans

“MILLIONS WILL DIE, AND I DON'T CARE”: Leaked Putin's Plans for WW3 Against Europe dives deep into explosive claims published by the Russian Telegram channel VChK-OGPU about a potential large-scale war between Russia and NATO in Europe. According to the alleged blueprint, the Kremlin could prepare for mass mobilization, frozen bank deposits, financial seizures, and catastrophic losses reaching 20 million people between 2026 and 2028. This video analyzes whether these WW3 scenarios are realistic, how credible insider leaks from Russian elite circles really are, and why Pavel Durov and Telegram censorship controversies matter in understanding information warfare inside Russia.

We break down how Putin’s personalist autocracy functions behind the scenes, from elite infighting inside the Kremlin to anonymous Telegram channels replacing independent media like Kommersant and Vedomosti. The video explores how internal power struggles, sanctions pressure, war economy expansion, and military spending reaching double-digit percentages of GDP could signal long-term preparation for escalation beyond Ukraine. At the same time, we examine the limits of prediction in a system centered entirely around Vladimir Putin, a leader isolated for over two decades, operating inside a tightly controlled information bubble disconnected from public reality.

A key focus is the 2026 Russian general election and why even a tightly managed vote can become a destabilizing stress test for the regime. We discuss how major unpopular decisions — from pension reform to mobilization waves — historically follow election cycles, and why timing matters more than rhetoric. Could a full NATO confrontation, nationwide mobilization, electronic draft systems, unified military databases, travel restrictions, and emergency financial controls realistically happen before 2026? Or does the Kremlin need political consolidation first?

Finally, we analyze Russia’s massive war spending, corruption patterns, military-industrial buildup, and whether the scale of defense budgets signals preparation for a broader European conflict or reflects systemic inefficiency and elite enrichment. Is the “loaded gun” already mounted on the wall, waiting for the trigger? Or is this another example of fear amplified by opaque governance and strategic ambiguity?

This breakdown covers Russia-Ukraine war escalation risks, NATO-Russia tensions, Kremlin strategy, Russian mobilization laws, frozen bank deposits rumors, war economy dynamics, elite power struggles, election timing, sanctions impact, defense spending, and the long-term geopolitical future of Europe. If you want sober analysis of Putin’s strategy, potential WW3 scenarios, European security risks, and how Russia’s internal political system shapes global instability, this video delivers a clear and detailed perspective on what could come next.

 
Ukraine begins using Mirage 2000 jets for frontline airstrikes

The Ukrainian Air Force has begun using French-supplied Mirage 2000 fighter jets to conduct airstrikes against Russian ground targets, according to reporting by Ukrainian defense outlet Militarnyi and footage released by the aviation-linked “Sonyashnyk” community showing precision-guided bomb employment on the battlefield. According to Militarnyi, video published by the Sonyashnyk community shows a Mirage 2000 releasing two AASM Hammer precision-guided aerial bombs against a ground target along an unspecified sector of the front line. The footage represents the first publicly available recording showing combat use of the French fighter against ground targets since its transfer to Ukraine. In a Telegram message accompanying the video, the aviation-linked channel stated: “We thank France for its unwavering support for our military, as well as for high-quality and modern weapons.”

The strike footage appears to confirm that the Mirage 2000 platform is now employed for precision strike missions in addition to previously acknowledged air defense duties. Earlier official communications had indicated that Ukrainian Mirage 2000 aircraft were used primarily to counter Russian aerial threats.

The AASM Hammer is a precision-guided air-to-ground munition designed to convert conventional bombs into guided weapons through the addition of navigation and propulsion kits. The system allows aircraft to engage targets at stand-off distances while maintaining accuracy under adverse weather conditions. In operational terms, the weapon combines inertial navigation and satellite guidance, enabling pilots to strike fixed targets with reduced exposure to short-range air defenses. The munition’s modular design allows different guidance configurations depending on mission requirements.

The Mirage 2000, originally developed by France as a multirole fighter aircraft, can perform both air-to-air and air-to-ground missions. Its integration into Ukrainian operations expands available strike platforms capable of delivering Western precision munitions. According to previously released information cited by Ukrainian sources, France committed to supplying additional Mirage 2000 aircraft as part of military assistance. Ukraine is expected to receive two additional fighters by the end of the first quarter of 2026, supplementing three aircraft delivered the previous year. One aircraft was reportedly lost during the summer, meaning Ukraine is projected to operate at least four Mirage 2000 fighters by the end of 2026 if deliveries proceed as announced. The transfer of the aircraft has been accompanied by continued training programs for both pilots and ground crews, enabling integration of Western avionics, weapons systems, and maintenance procedures into Ukrainian Air Force operations.

The emergence of strike footage also highlights the gradual expansion of Western-supplied aircraft roles as Ukrainian forces adapt platforms initially introduced for defensive purposes into broader mission profiles. Modern multirole fighters allow air forces to shift between air defense and strike missions depending on operational needs.

Personally, I think this shws Ukraine is now achieving sufficient command of the air over the front to be able to carry out these strikes effectively, which is a big jump in capability. More Mirages and F16's and Ukraine will be able to achieve ai superiority - and ith the continued whittling away of air defence systems, Ukraine may soon be in a position to penetrate Russian airspace as they choose. So much fr Ukraine losimg the war. ROTFLMAO. Sure they are. Sure.
