Fuel crisis in occupied Crimea spirals out of control Queues at gas stations in Crimea have reached 2.5 km in length due to a severe shortage of fuel. This is a direct consequence of Ukrainian strikes on Russian logistics routes supplying the occupied peninsula.

MAGA and pro-Russian influencers love to claim that Europe has become a dangerous wasteland while their own countries are perfectly safe. The actual data completely exposes this narrative as a ridiculous lie. Data proves that Europe is significantly safer than both the United States and Russia. While Western European nations maintain an average intentional homicide rate of around 1 per 100,000 people, the United States and Russia suffer from violent crime rates that are five to seven times higher (!!!). The claim that Europe is an unsafe warzone is completely detached from statistical reality. Xenophobic influencers push this false narrative primarily as an excuse to attack immigration and Islam. However, their arguments fall apart under basic scrutiny because their own domestic demographics completely contradict their talking points. For instance, pro-Kremlin accounts completely ignore the fact that Russia houses the largest Muslim population in Europe by far, numbering up to twenty million citizens. Similarly, MAGA commentators attack immigration despite the United States being a nation entirely built by immigrants and their descendants. The idea that Europe is uniquely dangerous is a stupid deception, as the numbers show it remains the safest of the three by a massive margin

MAJOR BREAKING: Iran has just cut off all diplomatic communications with the United States, shutting down official channels at a moment when tensions remain high. Iran is playing Trump and making him look like a fool.

❗️During NATO exercises on the Swedish island of Gotland in mid-May, 17 Ukrainian service members (mostly drone operators) “destroyed” 20 Swedish tanks. The Ukrainians operated FPV drones so effectively that the Swedish armored unit had to be “resurrected” three times to continue the maneuvers. A 24-year-old operator with the call sign “Tarik” said it was an “easy target” for him. The commander of the Swedish regiment on Gotland, Andreas Gustafsson, said he was impressed by the minimal number of personnel in the Ukrainian units and is taking “immediate lessons” from the Ukrainian drone operators.

Our long-range capabilities are significantly changing the situation – and, more broadly, the world’s perception of Russia’s war. Many partners are now signaling that they see what is happening and how everything has changed – both in attitudes toward this war and in the reachability of Russian targets on Russian territory. The war is quite predictably returning to its “native harbor,” and this is a clear signal that one should not pick a fight with Ukraine or wage an unjust war of conquest against another people.

Ukraine’s skydiving plane is now shooting down Russian drones. This isn’t a fighter jet. It’s an old civilian An-28 that was once used for parachute jumps. Now, it is armed with a machine gun, and its volunteer crew shoots down Russian drones. The heart and soul of the crew is Valery Slipkan. He lost his son in the first days of the full-scale war. Valery has lived in a trailer on an airfield for nine months, turning the old plane into a drone hunter. Source: the New York Times
