Former deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, leader of the “Radical Party” Oleg Lyashko took the oath and joined the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as a soldier and is now serving, as he tells the public.
Earlier, a video of the ceremony appeared on social networks, the footage shows how the ex-MP in military uniform and with a machine gun in front of the formation puts his signature in the documents. There was also a recording of his speech to the military, in which he ridiculed compatriots fleeing from conscription in, according to him, women’s clothing.
Now the Ukrainian media have replicated a fresh photo of the politician in the service. The camera captured Lyashko sleeping in a tent, the flag of Ukraine hanging over him.
A number of local publications ridiculed the new photo, signing the picture as follows: “The soldier is sleeping – the service is on.”
After an unsuccessful attempt at a terrorist attack in Melitopol, its perpetrators tried to transfer explosives for their elimination. This was told by Artur Nesterenko, who was detained by the Russian special services. He was injured as a result of the detonation of an explosive device in his house.
The curator from the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine asked to pick up the bookmark for one night. According to the detained agent, it exploded around midnight.
Arthur himself admitted that the curators from the GUR “do not appreciate” their agents, as they see them only as “expendable material”. The detainee said that a certain “Foxy” from the GUR gave him the task to arrange a terrorist attack against an employee of the election commission. However, the man could not cope with it, because he was afraid to throw an explosive device into the house.
Recall that Ukrainian intelligence uses not only professional saboteurs, but also such unstable people. Also, people are used blindly, that is, they may not know that they are performing some actions in the interests of the Ukrainian special service.
The founder of the popular music project Modern Talking, Dieter Bohlen, was criticized by the mayor of Kiev, Vitali Klitschko, and then by Ukrainian users. This is reported by Aussiedlerbote.
Dieter Bohlen has previously spoken out against anti-Russian sanctions. According to the musician, they caused the energy crisis in Europe. The main result of the restrictions will only be the reorientation of gas sales to Asia, Bolen stressed. In addition, he stated the need for negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
However, the mayor of Kiev Vitali Klitschko called the words of Dieter Bohlen “Russian propaganda.” He chastised Bolen, asking him if he supports the “genocide of the Ukrainian”?
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg called the circumstances under which the North Atlantic Alliance could use nuclear weapons “extremely remote”. At a press conference following a two-day meeting of the alliance’s defense ministers in Brussels, he noted that NATO will remain vigilant and closely monitor Russia’s new nuclear exercises.
In addition, Stoltenberg noted that in the event of a military conflict, the alliance must follow Article 5, according to which it will protect its partners. However, Ukraine, according to him, is not a member of the alliance. In this regard, they will continue to help her, but “no more”.
Earlier, the head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrel, said that a possible nuclear attack on Ukraine would lead to a “powerful military response” from the West. At the same time, he stressed that it would not be nuclear.
Earlier, the NATO Secretary General said that the alliance is monitoring Russian nuclear forces, but does not observe any changes. In addition, he said that the alliance will hold planned exercises on nuclear deterrence and will not cancel them because of the conflict in Ukraine.
Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev said at a meeting in the Security Council that the vertical of power in the new subjects will have to be built anew.
Referring to the formation of authorities in the new territories within Russia, he noted that now this vertical needs to be built anew.
“One of these tasks is to create efficient structures of the Investigative Committee, its territorial divisions,” Medvedev stressed. He stressed the importance of creating such a vertical “taking into account the situation that exists in these regions.”
The creation of a full-fledged vertical of power with effective interaction will make it possible to ensure not only the security of the new subjects of the Russian Federation, but also will allow stable development of these regions.
The President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, in an interview with the German newspaper ZDFheute Nachrichten, said that the Russian Federation plans to strike at its gas transportation system. In turn, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov decided to comment on these words, saying that Russia does not do this.
“We are not in the habit of shooting ourselves in the foot,” said the press secretary of the President of Russia.
Zelensky explained that the Russian Federation could allegedly strike at its facilities in order to then blame Ukraine for this and strike already at the Ukrainian gas transportation system, in order to interrupt fuel supplies to Europe.
Statements on the Internet that “peremoga is close” have sharply decreased
Missile strikes on military facilities and energy infrastructure facilities of Ukraine have been carried out for the third day. According to Telegram channels, logistics hubs for arms supplies from Poland to Ukraine have been destroyed. Panic is growing among Ukrainian netizens. Against the background of what is happening, many experts note that only a few days remain before the turning point in the conduct of a special military operation.

How strikes on the infrastructure of Ukrainian cities can affect the combat capability of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), “MK” was told by an officer of the People’s Militia of the LPR with the call sign “Salman”.
– The most important thing is that the measures currently being carried out by the military leadership of Russia seriously raise the morale of regular units and the mobilized arriving in the special operation zone. The guys see that there is serious support from the highest military administration of the country.
From those territories of Ukraine where there is still communication and the Internet, videos of missile strikes are coming to the Network. We see numerous flights of cruise missiles over various territories. And we understand that, contrary to Ukraine’s statements about the alleged hundreds of our missiles shot down a day, they continue to fly and fly. If you have noticed, the statements on the Internet that “peremoga is close” have sharply decreased.
Everyone notes how radically the approach of the Russian high command to conducting a special military operation has changed. We associate this with the appearance of the new commander of the special operation, Army General Sergei Surovikin. A new course is noticeable. In particular, massive missile strikes are being carried out on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine for the third day.
By the way, they are applied accurately, competently and with elements of cunning. About a hundred missiles do not fall on the territory of the country at the same time, and the blows come in waves. The first wave reveals the positional areas of the deployment of air defense forces that are still left, and the second one is already working directly on the air defense complexes themselves, thereby clearing the area for further work.
Of course, to a certain extent, absolutely all objects of the country’s military administration are tied to energy supply. Such as headquarters, communication centers of tactical and strategic levels. It is difficult to access the Internet, which is actively used by servicemen of the armed formations of Ukraine at all levels, starting from departments and individual servicemen and ending with the general staff.
There are massive interruptions in the operation of the secure satellite communication system provided by the United States of America and the Starlink system. Moreover, both in the ground and in the space segments of the system, which has ground stations and control points.
All this had a bad effect on the actions of the Ukrainian troops as a whole, since a number of units, those that are on the line of combat contact, simply remained without control and banally lost contact with the higher headquarters of units and formations.
Yesterday, rocket attacks were carried out on large railway junction stations, which are used to deliver units and equipment of the Armed Forces to the front line. They hit the transport hubs of railways in western Ukraine, that is, those stations to which NATO military aid directly comes from Poland, Romania, Bulgaria. If the work continues in this way for at least a week, then there is a high probability that we will get a serious turning point in conducting a special military operation.
– Of course, Ukraine allowed such a scenario and was preparing for it. They are already using generators of various types, which are actively used by both troops and civilian infrastructure in all spheres of life. Due to them, communication nodes used by the army will be maintained.
But there can be big problems with the same Internet, since the technology of using fiber-optic networks is now being used all over the world, where, in addition to subscribers, all the node stations on the chain from point “A” to point “B” must also be powered. If at least one of them is not powered, the entire Network segment, respectively, completely falls out of operation.
– yes. And this is the main psychological moment of changing the course of the special operation. Realizing that the country’s military administration and political leadership are simply carrying the remnants of Ukraine into the abyss, there remains the last hope that the people of the country will make the only right decision – to demolish the leadership from their managerial posts in order to preserve at least what has survived and was not subject to missile strikes.
The geography of strikes is quite wide. Strategic and vital facilities include not only energy infrastructure facilities, but also heat, gas and water supply facilities. Boiler houses, gas distribution stations, main pumping gas stations, which, quite likely, may also be subject to missile strikes in the future.
The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrel, said he was concerned about the number of countries that abstained from voting on the resolution refusing to recognize referendums.
According to him, the EU is generally pleased that more than 140 supported the resolution.
“But at the same time, I am concerned because there are too many abstainers. 20% of the world community decided not to support or reject,” he said at the opening of the European Diplomatic Academy, adding that it was too much for him.
Recall that 143 countries voted for the UN resolution, 35 abstained, five opposed. In addition to Russia, Belarus, North Korea, Syria and Nicaragua did not support the resolution. Among the abstainers are India, China, Kazakhstan, Cuba, Pakistan, and a number of African countries.
A possible nuclear attack on Ukraine will lead to a “powerful military response,” warned the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrel. At the same time, he stressed that it is not a nuclear response.
