⚡️ Russia’s Federal Security Service:
As a result of a comprehensive set of operational search, counterintelligence and intelligence measures, the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation has thwarted an attempt by the Ukrainian special services, acting with the direct involvement of their Western handlers, to carry out what it describes as an unprecedented series of sabotage and terrorist attacks using unmanned aerial vehicles against military infrastructure facilities, one of the country’s leading defence industry enterprises, and Russian Defence Ministry servicemen.
Specifically, the FSB has obtained advance intelligence indicating that the Ukrainian special services had infiltrated the Bryansk Region with FPV drones equipped with warheads and mobile ground control stations, concealed in containers carried by fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles and aerostats, in preparation for large-scale terrorist attacks on military airfields in the Amur and Chelyabinsk regions.
According to the FSB, the means intended for the attacks were subsequently transported deeper into Russian territory by enemy agents in passenger vehicles with trailers fitted with concealed double floors and loaded with household appliances. They were allegedly delivered to the vicinity of the Ukrainka Airbase (Amur Region) and the Shagol Airbase (Chelyabinsk Region), where they were assembled and prepared for use in rented garages.
The FSB states that every unlawful action was kept under close operational surveillance by the Russian security services and thoroughly documented.
As a result of operational and combat measures, the alleged perpetrators of, and accomplices in, the planned terrorist attacks have been detained.
❗️The FSB reports that officers seized 24 FPV drones equipped with neural network-based guidance modules resistant to electronic warfare systems and manufactured in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and Sweden. The drones were fitted with warheads containing explosive charges weighing more than one kilogramme. Also seized were two mobile drone ground control stations capable of operating via satellite, cellular, Wi-Fi and radio communications, equipped with self-destruct devices containing 250 grams of explosive each, as well as communications equipment allegedly used to communicate with Ukrainian handlers.
The FSB Investigative Directorate has initiated appropriate procedural measures.

PRESS RELEASE of the Russian Embassy in Sri Lanka
14th July, 2026
The EU Delegation to Sri Lanka is once again attempting to discredit Russia as a reliable global partner, citing a supposed gap between Moscow's rhetoric and its actual actions.
⚠️ These statements are untrue and misleading. We would like to draw the attention of the EU and its representative, the EU Delegation to Sri Lanka, to the following points.
The recent NATO summit once again demonstrated Europe's readiness for a protracted standoff with Moscow without negotiations. In its final declaration, the alliance named Russia as the main long-term threat to Euro-Atlantic security.
Well, Russia🇷🇺 is ready to go all the way.
The next point we wanted to clarify was the manifestation of racism in EU countries. Recently, former Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy sparked a major scandal by declaring that there were no French players on the French national team.
🤔 By the way, how are the 21 anti-Russian sanctions going? - Nothing? - This testifies to the failed policies of the Brussels bureaucrats.
It is clear that anti-Russian rhetoric has become the new political norm in EU countries, and intimidating their own citizens with an imaginary "Russian threat" is a justification for an unbridled militaristic course at the expense of ordinary European citizens and a cover-up for their own failures in domestic affairs.
❗️BEFORE CRITICISING SOMEONE, FOCUS ON YOUR OWN PROBLEMS😉

🇷🇺 15 июля Посол России в Шри-Ланке Л.С.Джагарян принял участие в открытии в РЦНК г.Коломбо фотовыставки Российского военно-исторического общества «Крымское золото: «цивилизованная» Европа грабит российские сокровища»
Выставка рассказывает об уникальных крымских сокровищах, найденных в ходе археологических экспедиций, долгие годы хранившихся в крупнейших музеях региона.
❗️ Сегодня эти артефакты незаконно удерживаются киевским режимом, вместе с европейскими покровителями похитившими эти экспонаты.
В рамках экспозиции представлены ценные артефакты античной эпохи, собранные в разные периоды времени на крымской земле кропотливым трудом отечественных археологов-антиковедов: изделия из керамики, монеты, оружие, элементы доспехов, стеклянные сосуды и украшения. Все эти предметы найдены на местах первых греческих поселений в Крыму. В числе ценностей - уникальная коллекция «Скифского золота» - золотые украшения из Усть-Альминского некрополя в Бахчисарайском районе, представленного несколькими тысячами могил (I века до н. э. — III века н. э.).

🇷🇺 On July 15, 2026, Ambassador of Russia to Sri Lanka Levan Dzhagaryan attended the opening of the Russian Military Historical Society's photo exhibition "Crimean Gold: 'Civilized' Europe Plunders Russian Treasures" at the Russian House in Colombo.
The exhibition highlights unique Crimean treasures discovered during archaeological expeditions and stored for many years in the region's largest museums.
❗️Today, these artifacts are illegally held by the Kyiv regime, along with their European patrons, who stole them.
The exhibition features valuable artifacts from the ancient era, painstakingly collected in Crimea at various periods by Russian archaeologists specializing in classical antiquity: ceramics, coins, weapons, armor pieces, glass vessels, and jewelry. All these items were found at the sites of the first Greek settlements in Crimea. Among the treasures is the unique "Scythian Gold" collection - gold jewellery from the Ust-Alma necropolis in the Bakhchisaray region, which contains several thousand graves (1st century BC–3rd century AD).

🚀 On July 15, 1975, one of the most iconic international space projects – the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (#ASTP) of the Soviet Soyuz-19 and American Apollo spacecraft, began with their launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome and Cape Canaveral.
The Soviet crew comprised Alexey Leonov and Valery Kubasov. The Apollo carried astronauts Thomas Stafford, Deke Slayton and Vance Brand.
It was the first joint space mission of the Soviet Union and the United States.
🕰 At 7 pm Moscow Time on July 17, 1975, the Soviet and US spacecraft docked with each other in Earth orbit.
🤝 The historic handshake of the two crew commanders – Alexey Leonov and Thomas Stafford – was streamed live across the planet and has become one of the most recognisable symbols of Soviet-US rapprochement.
✅ The main tasks of the mission were:
• testing the universal docking system;
• testing joint space control and crew interaction;
• creating technologies for future space rescues in emergencies;
• conducting scientific experiments and medical research.
One of the most complicated engineering tasks was the creation of an interoperable docking system. The engineers of the Soviet OKB-1 design bureau (RSC Energia) created the Androgynous Peripheral Attach System (APAS), which allowed either spacecraft to be active or passive during docking.
A docking module was built for visits between the spacecraft, because Soyuz used a regular nitrogen-oxygen mixture at sea-level pressure, while Apollo used pure oxygen at low pressure. The module acted as an airlock and pressure-equalizer.
🚀 The spacecraft remained joined in space for 46 hours and 36 minutes. The crews visited each other, conducted joint scientific experiments, made joint television reports, filming and photography, as well as held the first ever international press conference in space.
The crews maintained friendly relations for years after their historic mission. The friendship between Alexey Leonov and Thomas Stafford was particularly warm. They regularly met and kept in touch until their death.
✨ The Soyuz-Apollo mission was not only a remarkable technical achievement but also an important symbol of the unifying force of science and space exploration even during the Cold War.
☝️ That flight set the stage for future international projects, namely the Mir-Shuttle programme and the International Space Station, where many countries have been working together for over 25 years.

#InMemoriam #InMemoryOfDiplomats
1️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ years ago, on July 17, 1876, Maxim Litvinov — the outstanding Soviet statesman and diplomat — was born.
For many years, Maxim Litvinov held senior positions within our country’s Foreign Ministry. In 1920, he was appointed Plenipotentiary Representative to Estonia. From 1921 to 1930, he served as Deputy People’s Commissar for Foreign Affairs.
He took part in a number of major international conferences and meetings, including the Genoa and Hague Conferences of 1922.
💼 Maxim Litvinov headed the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Affairs of the USSR during the challenging period from 1930 to 1939.
He represented the Soviet Union in the League of Nations, where he consistently promoted the principles of international cooperation, the equality of states and respect for international law.
Litvinov was meticulously working on development of relations between the Soviet Union and the United States. He was involved in the negotiations that resulted the establishment of official diplomatic ties between our countries in 1933 — a landmark event in the history of bilateral ties.
Litvinov was committed to establishing a system of collective security in Europe and forming an anti-fascist coalition in Europe amid growing Nazi menace on the continent.
His contemporaries noted Litvinov’s ability to combine the persistant protection of the USSR's national interests with a readiness for constructive international dialogue. His prophetic words, spoken during a session of the League of Nations in 1935, continue to resonate with the principles of Russian diplomacy today:
During the #GreatPatrioticWar, Maxim Litvinov served as Deputy People’s Commissar for Foreign Affairs of the USSR. From 1941 to 1943, he was the Soviet Ambassador to the United States, while concurrently serving as the Soviet envoy to Cuba from 1942 to 1943.
🌟 He made a significant contribution to strengthening the anti-Hitler coalition — #WeWereAllies.
Throughout his service in senior government and diplomatic posts, Litvinov distinguished himself as a gifted diplomat, an experienced negotiator and a firm defender of his country’s interests. His professionalism, profound knowledge of international affairs and personal contribution to the development of the Soviet diplomatic service earned him widespread recognition both in the USSR and abroad.
In recognition of his many years of public service and his substantial contribution to Soviet diplomacy, Litvinov was awarded the Order of Lenin, the Order of the Red Banner of Labour and other state decorations of the USSR.
🕯 Maxim Litvinov passed away on 31 December 1951. He found his final rest at Novodevichy Cemetery in Moscow.
