Ooooo, Admiral Grigorivich ...
... fired a warning shot. The world has ended, not.
The British Defense Ministry is investigating reports that a Russian frigate fired warning shots within 500 meters of a UK-registered yacht in the English Channel, the BBC has reported. According to the Press Association, the Russian frigate Admiral Grigorovich fired the shots at 11:40 am local time on Tuesday, as it sailed in international waters between the Isle of Wight and Normandy. The crew of the yacht reportedly told the British Coastguard that the shots had been fired from a distance of around 500 yards (457 meters). The yacht was not hit, and nobody on board suffered any injuries, according to the BBC. Speaking to the BBC, the Defense Ministry did not confirm that any shots were fired, only stating that it was “investigating reports of an incident in the Channel.” The Admiral Grigorovich, a 3,600-ton warship equipped to carry Kalibr cruise missiles, was being followed by a Royal Navy patrol ship – the HMS Mersey – at the time of the alleged incident, the BBC reported. It is unclear how close the HMS Mersey was to the Admiral Grigorovich at the time, or whether the Russian crew interpreted its behavior as hostile.
For starters--3, 600 ton displacement is a standard one (the ship without stores, empty), full displacement of these ships is 4, 000 +. Secondly, depending on the maneuvers of the said yacht and how warnings have been delivered (radio, visual etc.) if yacht wasn't following instructions and was continuing to approach--it is pretty standard protocol. Something like this--5 mil lead at the stern, if continue to move, 5 mil lead at the nose, still didn't get the message? Well, too bad, bye, bye--feed the fishes.
Meanwhile:
What is happening in Kostantinovka is organized slaughter of VSU and functionally it is over for 404 in this particular city, Kramatorsk and Slavyansk are next. But look at this--mighty Dutch armed forces train this element:Moscow has condemned a Dutch military test involving a mock prisoner-of-war camp for Russian soldiers, warning European “hotheads” that the facilities would be of no use if a real conflict broke out. Dutch media reported last week that the Netherlands Army was test-running a new POW camp design at the Marnehuizen training facility in Groningen, preparing to hold up to 2,000 Russian captives in the event of a large-scale conflict. The facility reportedly features barracks housing groups of roughly 20 detainees, and seeks to replace traditional watchtowers with guards by camera-equipped poles, with monitoring also being carried out by drones.
Sure, that's Europe's specialty--atrocities, concentration camps et al. Cretins from Dutch military obviously do not understand that in real war Dutch Kingdom will cease to exist, including its "military" really fast. But then again, Dutch military is a reflection of its nation known primarily for official drugs' use and prostitution today. Russian will not be taking prisoners in case of real war.

Defense Of Important ...
... installations. 80 barrels per unit.
Buy from OCP (Omni Consumer Products), from Russia--they will straighten Detroit in no time. Hunters and mushroom gatherers, remember--when you hear a horrible loud voice and see those things popping up from the ground, know then, silos of ICBMs are near, you got lost and drop your weapons, prey and mushrooms. Follow voice instructions, after you are processed by human guards you will be allowed to change your pants))
They Decided To Live ...
... in Konstantinovka. Surrendering in hundreds is reported.
The end of 35th and 39th motor rifle brigades of VSU. NATO wanted war--it got one.
WTF? Is It Some Kind ...
... of a bizarre Russian-American corporate solidarity thing? This morning TU-22M3 bomber crashed in Irkutsk (the crew survived), now this:
A B-52 Stratofortress crashed shortly after takeoff Monday from Edwards Air Force base in California's Mojave Desert, according to the military base. The crash was reported at about 11:20 a.m. Emergency crews responded to the scene about 100 miles north of Los Angeles. In an email to NBCLA, Edwards Air Force Base said more information will be provided when available.
Crazy!
Sadly Only In Russian.
Here is Nadana Frederickson--she is a famous Russian journalist, covers SMO, often on the frontlines and she is one of a few decent mainstream media voices. In this case she talks about the sixth column in Russia.
About two (out of many) whores who in pursuit of their political careers in effect conduct info-sabotage against Russia. In this case it is about former General Gurulev (a rather despicable character, thrown out of the Army) and Zakhar Prilepin--a darling of all kinds of fringe liberal political aspirants and of much of Russian media. This is a great conversation, if you wish, by Nadana. I assume this is a combination of her principles (e.g. she was ruthless about Apti Alaudinov or rather a circle of scumbags which coalesced around him) and of understanding where political winds in Moscow blow.
It is about time that this sewer of Russian media and voenwhores they promote, such as shadow asset for GUR Rybar, or Podolyaka et al, and even hysterical Solovyov (God, he "loves" me--he promised to beat me, I guess I have to accommodate his desires) be subjected to a judicial, not just public opinion treatment. Solovyov is butthurt that this time he hasn't been even invited to SPIEF 2026. Poor, poor dear. I guess that's the price one pays for dragging all kinds of trash on his "shows".
Meanwhile in Kiev, aw, poor poor dears Russia destroyed Aleksandr Dovzhenko's film studio. Ouch, those barbaric Russians. But wait ...
