🇺🇦🇷🇺 A Look Back at Kiev’s Putrid Act of State Terror and Mass Murder on Belgorod

On the 30th of December, Ukrainian forces attacked the commercial centre of Belgorod. There is absolutely zero military infrastructure here.

Only Pensioners, Women, Kids and Babies out shopping for the holiday. They were targeted and massacred by NATO supplied weapons.

80 years ago, on January 27, 1944, the Red Army completely liberated Leningrad from the fascist blockade. Leningraders spent 872 days surrounded, they lived with one thought and one spirit - to do everything to defeat the enemy. And the enemy was indeed defeated.

Eternal glory to the defenders of Leningrad!

Here is a collage my friend and her son made together to commemorate liberation of Leningrad. She kindly allowed me to post this picture here, so our subscribers can see it.

Memory of the victory is alive within us and we pass it further to our children.

Axis powers angry about the ICJ ruling, have suspended funding to the UNRWA. I think given the suffering of just regular civilians this a cruel and cynical move. They created a prison camp where trade, industry, and economic independence is impossible for people.

Contrary to the uninformed money was not stolen by Hamas to build tunnels. In fact the tunnels to Egypt used for smuggling consumer goods is what finances Hamas which are a result of Gaza being under siege and isolation for decades. If you want to read on how it works, then I recommend an article by famed economic historian Adam Tooze'. Here is the piece. It is a result of the Gaza siege. He did a short podcast on it as well if you don't want to read the article.

Edit: I've embedded the podcast as I found it interesting.

History is often always written through the lens of the nation you are from, but historical revisionism has accelerated in recent years. One only has to visit Wikipedia and notice how activists since the start of 2022 have edited every Russian related piece to now create total disinformation. Now Wikipedia was always garbage but it is small part of a sinister wave of obfuscating reality. If you grew up in the West your view of WWII is shaped by movies, TV, and books written with a very US or UK centric view of the war yet most Germans (80%+) died on the Eastern Front. By the time of the Normandy landings the German military's back was broken. It depresses me that the EU is actively trying to create false narratives when the truth is needed more than ever.

❗️“Do not hope that once you take advantage of Russia’s weakness, you will receive dividends forever. The Russians always come for their money. And when they come, do not rely on the Jesuit agreements you signed that supposedly justify you. They are not worth the paper they are written on. Therefore, you should either play fairly with the Russians, or not play at all."

Ukrainian channel Strana:

Electronic warfare systems have switched to “trench mode” and can now be used by any soldier, a Ukrainian soldier said in a video published on Tiktok.

He showed a compact device, which at the front is called a “frying pan”. It jams the control channel or GPS of the drone if it is in line of sight.

There are simpler devices that constantly emit interference, and there are more effective ones that first detect a drone and then work precisely on it. In this case, the device is more difficult to detect.

The device “simply kills” any nearby drone, says a Ukrainian Armed Forces soldier. Range - 300-500 meters.

According to the military man, the problem is that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are forced to look for “frying pans” and components for them via the Internet, while Russia has begun to produce them independently in serial mode.

“This is even more scary for us, because it will spread on all fronts,” said the author of the video. In his opinion, this could lead to massive losses of drones among the Ukrainian Armed Forces, since “trench electronic warfare” is almost impossible to detect and destroy (unlike stationary systems).
