Ben Hodges - Ukraine Unleashes Hell: The Weapon Russia Never Saw Coming

The war has entered a terrifying new phase. As Europe drifts in denial, Ukraine has unleashed a weapon that could reshape the entire conflict — the Flamingo, a long-range missile capable of reaching deep into Russia’s heart. For two nights in November, Russia launched its most brutal drone offensive yet — over 250 drones and ballistic missiles tearing through Ukrainian skies. But Ukraine didn’t retreat. It struck back with precision, igniting Russian oil refineries, command centers, and even power plants across Belgorod, Oryol, Krasnodar, Crimea, and Zaporizhzhia.

The world watched in silence as the Flamingo missile made its combat debut, a devastating answer to months of Russian terror. Built entirely in Ukraine, this weapon — part drone, part cruise missile — carries more than 2,500 pounds of explosives and travels nearly 3,000 kilometers, faster than most of Russia’s arsenal. Ukraine’s message is now unmistakable: if you bring darkness, we will bring fire.

As winter closes in, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Europe’s hesitation has a cost — and Ukraine just reminded the world what survival looks like.

Russia Not Interested in ANY Negotiated Peace Offered

Here's a peace plan. Destroy the Russian Federation.

This embarrassing row reveals how Russia is directing the US on Ukraine

If it weren’t so pathetically predictable, the weekend’s developments in Washington pertaining to President Donald Trump’s 28-point peace plan for Ukraine would stretch credulity. It turns out the document is not – in fact – Trump’s 28-point peace plan, but mostly a Russian document that US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff or one of his colleagues may simply have run through an online translation app before giving it the White House seal of approval.

At the G20 Summit in Johannesburg, Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister, was pictured in deep conversation with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. As they discussed the crisis sparked by Trump’s demand that the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accept the American-backed plan by Thursday, or else face an immediate and complete cut in US military assistance, even the three European leaders may not have fully understood the scale of Trump’s sell-out to Moscow.

The architect of the latest Kremlin moves to secure a peace that dismembers Ukraine and is entirely favourable only to Vladimir Putin, is one of the Russian leader’s most prominent advisers. Harvard-educated Kirill Dmitriev has shuttled back and forth between Moscow and various cities in the United States for meetings with Witkoff, Trump’s fellow property magnate who has become America’s de facto “Mr Fixit”.

The head of Russia’s sovereign wealth fund, Dmitriev appears to have capitalised on Witfkoff’s lack of experience in the world of international diplomacy. Witkoff himself has said that in order to bone up on global affairs, he has watched a series of Netflix documentaries. But none, it appears, that provided relevant advice on how to avoid being taken in completely by Moscow. Various clumsy efforts were made this weekend to clean up Witkoff’s mess, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio racing to Geneva for emergency talks with European foreign ministers. But the Trump administration could not even keep its own story about the document straight and managed to create a circular firing squad that left top Republicans taking aim at one another.

Senator Mike Rounds of South Dakota claimed that Rubio had disclosed in a phone call that the 28-point plan had its origins in Moscow. “He made it very clear to us that we are the recipients of a proposal that was delivered to [Witkoff]. It is not our recommendation, it is not our peace plan”, he announced. Hours later, State Department deputy spokesman Timothy Piggott contradicted Rounds’ claims. “As Secretary Rubio and the entire administration has consistently maintained, this plan was authored by the United States, with input from both the Russians and the Ukrainians,” he wrote on social media. In Ukraine itself, the Kyiv Independent accused Witkoff of “running a shadow operation inside the White House in an effort to sideline pro-Ukraine officials”. The newspaper claimed that Rubio had been blindsided by the peace plan, and that Vice President JD Vance had been actively supporting Witkoff’s efforts to promulgate it.

It will now fall to European leaders, once again, to try and talk sense into Trump. For the second time in recent months, a phalanx of them were discussing the possible need to fly to Washington urgently, although that was before the revelations about the Russian origins of the peace plan.

On Saturday the President appeared to back away from his insistence that Zelensky must accept the plan before America’s Thanksgiving holiday weekend that begins on Thursday. Asked what would happen if Zelensky rejected the plan, Trump said “then he can continue to fight his little heart out”. Whether the US leader intends to make good on his threat to cut weapons shipments and other military assistance, including the provision of intelligence about the disposition of Russian forces, is unclear.

Hour after hour this weekend, revelations regarding the scale of Russia’s capacity to co-opt the Trump White House have stunned veteran US foreign policy observers. Phillips O’Brien, a respected American historian and professor of strategic studies at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, suggested on social media that “the US and Russian governments are now so close that the US government takes large parts of Russian proposals and passes them off as their own”. He went on to claim that “some people are so desperate to exonerate Trump that they act like this is a good thing”.

“We are doomed”, he concluded.

How much more confirmation do we need. Witkoff hasn't been fired. Ergo....Trump should be impeached. And Vance with him. They're working for Putin.

Trump rant in response to criticism of his Ukraine Surrender Plan:

Facing backlash from allies, Trump took aim at Ukrainian leadership, saying the war never would have started had there been “strong and proper U.S. and Ukrainian LEADERSHIP.” Former President Biden and Zelensky were the countries’ respective leaders when Russia invaded in 2022.

“UKRAINE ‘LEADERSHIP’ HAS EXPRESSED ZERO GRATITUDE FOR OUR EFFORTS, AND EUROPE CONTINUES TO BUY OIL FROM RUSSIA. THE USA CONTINUES TO SELL MASSIVE $AMOUNTS OF WEAPONS TO NATO, FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UKRAINE (CROOKED JOE GAVE EVERYTHING, FREE, FREE, FREE, INCLUDING “BIG” MONEY!). GOD BLESS ALL THE LIVES THAT HAVE BEEN LOST IN THE HUMAN CATASTROPHE!” Trump wrote in a social media post Sunday morning.

• ZeRo gRaTituDe - Donnie reverts to his failed gibberish about “did he ever say thank you”
• EUroPe coNtiNueS tO bUy OiL frOm RuSsiA - mostly bought by Hungary, which is ruled by Orban (Donnie & Putin’s pal)
• Brags about selling weapons to Europe as if that is relevant to a peace plan
• cRoOked jOe - didn’t take billions in bribes like Crooked Donnie
• GoD bLeSS - blessings would not be needed if Donnie’s pal Putin hadn’t invaded

Ukraine’s Ground Position Is Stronger Than Anyone Expected

Russians are asking for Ukraine to hand over Donbas. In today’s video, I walk through the key developments. We’ll look at new data, battlefield maps, and the on-the-ground indicators that explain why Ukraine is holding stronger than many expected. This isn’t spin—there are real reasons behind this shift.

Russian Depositors Flee As Economy Spirals - Russians know where Russia is going, even if Trump doesn't

Russia’s financial system enters dangerous territory. New data shows Russians are pulling cash out of banks at five times the rate of last year, triggering fresh fears of a liquidity crisis as the ruble sinks and the state burns through its last reserves. With confidence collapsing, regional banks are already tightening withdrawals — a clear sign the Kremlin is losing control of its own economy.

At the same time, one of Moscow’s biggest information weapons just detonated in its hands. Western investigators have uncovered millions of Russian troll accounts masquerading as American citizens across Facebook, X, TikTok, and Reddit. These accounts pushed Kremlin propaganda, stirred division, and attempted to influence Western politics — and now the entire operation is exposed.

We’ll break down how the troll networks worked, how they were uncovered, and what this means for the information war going forward.

A sober update from Denys:

I consider one of my earlier posts validated, as Ukraine is starting to use FP-1 drones against larger groups of Russian soldiers in Pokrovsk.

If and when Russian forces fully occupy Pokrovsk in significant numbers, then it will be time to land a few Flamingos on their heads.

Keep up the attrition in Pokrovsk, etc, and play for time.



Slava Ukraini!!!

KREMLIN IN PANIC: NO MONEY FOR THE RUSSIA ARMY​

The Russian government has made “difficult decisions” to raise taxes because all state financial reserves that previously allowed the budget to balance have been exhausted. As reported by RIA Novosti, Deputy Finance Minister Vladimir Kolychev stated that over the past six years the expenditure side of the budget has grown from 16.6% of GDP to 19.7% of GDP, including due to defense spending, whose share has reached 30% of the budget — a record since Soviet times. At the same time, revenues relative to the size of the economy have decreased — from 18.4% of GDP to 17.1% of GDP. These are mainly oil and gas revenues, and this gap has widened over the past six years,” Kolychev noted.

Russia's Autumn Offensive - Pokrovsk, the Coming Winter and a Changing Battlefield​

Russia began 2025 expressing confidence in its battlefield prospects. Putin talked about creating new buffer zones and finishing off the Ukrainian military. Most of a year later, Russia's gains have again been mostly incremental while Ukraine's ability to strike against valuable Russian targets in the rear has steadily grown.

But despite Russia falling short of their likely goals, Ukraine is clearly under immense pressure. The infantry force is under-strength, the force is stretched, and Russian infiltration tactics, have delivered territorial gains, albeit at a steep price.

This episode then, we look at the Russian Autumn offensive, some of its major fronts (especially Pokrovsk), how the fighting has evolved and what it might tell us about the status of the two forces going into another winter that is expected to be colder and harder than the previous one.

NO DEAL: Russia Rejects Every Peace Plan: 24, 28, and 19 Points

Russia has now rejected three major peace proposals in a row, including the latest 19-point plan that European and U.S. officials believed might finally break the stalemate. In today’s video I break down what’s inside these plans, what Russia objected to, and why the Kremlin is refusing anything that limits its military or political ambitions. This pattern tells a bigger story about Moscow’s intentions—and it’s not about negotiating.

"WE ARE GOING TO WAR": The FSB Prepares to LAUNCH WAR Inside Chechnya AFTER Kadyrov's DEATH​

As soon as Kadyrov dies, which isn't that far away, Chechyna is going to blow like Krakatoa. And the Russian Army is in no position to take on the Chechena - and you can bet Ukraine will make sure they're well supplied. LOL

This video exposes the escalating internal crisis inside Russia as tensions between the FSB and Chechnya reach a breaking point. With Ramzan Kadyrov’s health deteriorating, the fragile balance in the North Caucasus is collapsing. For two decades, Chechnya has remained “quiet” only because it was ruled through fear, loyalty, and money centered entirely on one man. Without Kadyrov, the Kremlin loses its shield, and the FSB faces the reality of a republic held together not by institutions, but by a single collapsing pillar of power. Moscow fears a post-Kadyrov Chechnya because the moment he is gone, the FSB plans to launch the largest internal security operation since the early 2000s — an operation that risks turning into a full-scale internal war.

The FSB is preparing to dismantle Kadyrov’s private armies, crush armed clans, and reclaim federal control over a region that has never truly accepted Moscow’s authority. But Chechnya won’t simply obey. Old grievances, memory of the Chechen wars, and decades of trauma could explode the moment federal forces re-enter Grozny. The Kremlin may call it “stabilization,” but on the ground it will look like occupation. Fighters once loyal to Kadyrov, militias tied to his clan, and warlords waiting in the shadows may turn their weapons on Moscow the second the money stops flowing and the fear disappears. Chechnya remembers the destruction, the bombings, the disappearances — and without Kadyrov suppressing that rage, the FSB could walk into a conflict they cannot control.

This video breaks down the approaching crisis, the FSB’s internal calculations, the power vacuum inside the Kadyrov clan, and the historical grievances that could ignite the next major conflict inside the Russian Federation. As Kadyrov’s condition worsens, Russia stands on the edge of a dangerous turning point. The Kremlin pretends everything is stable, but beneath the surface the North Caucasus is a volcano waiting to erupt. The FSB thinks it’s preparing for a smooth transition. In reality, they may be preparing for a war inside Russia itself.

Trump Pushes Capitulation—Ukraine HITS Russia's Capital with Surprising STRIKE

While Donald Trump and Putin believed Zelensky had no cards left to play, the Ukrainian leader delivered his response right in the heart of Moscow! Ukraine's long-range drones struck the critical Shatura Thermal Power Plant (120 km from the Kremlin) and the Ryazan Oil Refinery, cutting off Russia's winter security and logistical lifeline.

In this video, we analyse Putin's "Rat in the Trap Syndrome" and Zelensky's Asymmetric Dominance Doctrine:
MOSCOW IS CLOSED AND COLD: The Shatura plant provided not only electricity but also heat to the Moscow Region. The attacks condemned millions of Russians to darkness and cold in the middle of winter.
PUTIN'S SHAME: While people froze on the streets, Putin held important strategic meetings in an underground bunker, camouflaged, shattering the "Strong Leader" myth.
LOGISTICAL CHAOS: Russia's 700,000 railway workers, who form the backbone of its logistics, are on the verge of a potential uprising due to unpaid wages and a lack of spare parts.
THE ZELENSKY DOCTRINE: Ukraine is now targeting the enemy's energy, economic and psychological infrastructure, which enables them to come to the front. The goal: to paralyse the Russian state's existential infrastructure.

This chaotic environment is bringing back the ghosts of the 1917 and 1991 chaos, which are embedded in Russia's genetic code. For Putin, this is a tacit admission of defeat.

Russian Cities IMPLODE as Putin's 'Surrender' Deal FALLS APART

Russia Stops Paying The ARMY; Evacuations ANNOUNCED in Moscow Suburb |

The Russian Federation has run out of money; and many regional governments are now stopping payouts on massive sign-on bonuses promised to new volunteers; and are massively slashing the bonuses for future volunteers. This also comes with the report that Russia's oil and gas revenues have dropped 32% in a single month, and the Russian government has seen another 7.5% of it's budget evaporate in the same time.

Evacuations were announced in the Moscow suburb of Zelenograd as Ukrainian drones attempted attacks on the area. Russian citizens were told to shelter in place or evacuate the area.

Peace talks are getting no where, with the Russians making it clear they won't even talk to the US this week. Ukraine has also been given another Ultimatum by the US to accept the peace deal or lose all support from the US. meanwhile another Russian spy linked to the railway bombing in Poland was arrested in the country today, while a Russian RGB-1 sonar buoy was found by British divers near the UK coast today.

China has reiterated they will retake Taiwan by force if necessary, while the US has now designated the Cartel De Los Soles as a terrorist organization, with Nicolas Maduro as it's leader.
