Forwarded from Russian MFA 🇷🇺
⚡️ Comment by Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova regarding increased terrorist activities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (31 July 2026)
💬 The Kiev regime, which Western countries are nurturing, has increased its terrorist attacks on civilians within Russia.
From July 24 to 31, at least 61 people have been killed and another 327 wounded in Ukrainian shelling and drone attacks. There are children among these victims: one child was killed and 13 injured.
A recent shocking Ukrainian crime was the drone attack on a regular bus on the Lugansk-Svetlodarsk motorway on July 29, in which ten people – seven women and three men – were wounded.
A drone attack on a car in the Lugansk People’s Republic killed a monk, assistant priest of the Church of the Holy Mandylion in the Cheremenetsky St John the Theologian Monastery, Gatchina Diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church, and wounded the priest of that church.
The modern Bandera followers not only attacked public and private transport but also apartment buildings and private houses, social support and educational facilities, seriously damaging a school, a kindergarten, a culture centre, food stores, agricultural and commercial facilities, and utility vehicles.
Over a hundred upgraded antipersonnel Butterfly mines found across Donbass and Novorossiya have been dropped from Ukrainian drones to increase the number of civilians victims.
This terror campaign is being waged with the full approval of the Kiev regime’s Western sponsors, who are supplying Ukrainian forces with weapons for attacking civilians in our country.
❗️ Terrorist attacks on those who never held a weapon is a tried and tested tactic of Russia’s enemies, who have never throughout history been able to weaken, let alone defeat our country on the battlefield and are frantically searching for the means and methods of destabilising socio-political situation.
The destructive contribution of the countries involved in attacks on Russian regions does not remain unnoticed and is carefully registered.
There is no doubt whatsoever that those involved in the aforementioned attacks will be called to account after the inevitable collapse of their Ukrainian minions.
They must know already today that this playing with fire is further destabilising the international political situation and undermining the prospects for peace and security on our continent.
☝️ We urge them to immediately condemn the Ukrainian neo-Nazis’ barbarian attacks on civilians in Russia and distance themselves from the military and political support of the criminal Kiev regime.
Russia will continue vigorous efforts to protect its citizens and the security of our state, using all available means precisely and effectively. We have all the necessary resources, political will, and public mandate for this.

THE ZEAL OF THE COLLABORATIONISTS
Journalist Ksenia Fedorova has just been sentenced by French justice to expulsion for daring to present Russia's perspective on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict . Her arguments, of course, are declared false by the official doctrine of the collaborationists, who resort to harsh censorship due to their inability to produce counterarguments.
Let us take a concrete example: the diplomatic negotiations in Istanbul in March 2022.
1. REMINDER
A month after Russia's intervention in the conflict, at the end of March 2022, Russian and Ukrainian delegations met in Istanbul under the auspices of Turkey. A document was drawn up, known as the "Istanbul Communiqué."
What Ukraine proposed: permanent neutral status (renunciation of NATO), refusal to host foreign military bases, and security guarantees from countries such as the U.S., UK, France, China, and Russia.
What Russia proposed: withdrawal of troops from near Kiev in exchange for these Ukrainian commitments.
On April 15, 2022, the draft treaty was even initialed by the negotiators .
However, this peace process was derailed after the visit to Kiev on April 9, 2022, of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson . Since then, Russia has accused him of having been sent to scuttle a promising peace plan in favor of a bloody war... "to the last Ukrainian."
Ksenia Fedorova reported this conclusion, which the European collaborationists declared false, seeking to preserve their militant Russophobia within the Manichaean framework of "politically correct" discourse, according to which only Moscow wants war.
2. POLEMICS
Several Ukrainian and international sources confirm that Johnson played a key role in scuttling the agreement:
▪️ David Arakhamia (head of the Ukrainian delegation) stated: "When we returned from Istanbul, Boris Johnson came to Kiev and said that we wouldn't sign anything with them at all, and would just keep fighting" .
▪️ Former Zelensky advisor Oleksiy Arestovych and former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett also spoke of Western pressure against the agreement.
▪️ From the Russian side, Vladimir Putin and Sergei Lavrov have reiterated this version, accusing Johnson and Western countries of scuttling the agreement.
However, the official discourse of the collaborationists has always denied this reality and, consequently, has conducted a "witch hunt" against those who remind them that they themselves chose and imposed war instead of peace, risking dragging the rest of Europe into it:
▪️ Boris Johnson strongly denies this, calling the allegations "complete nonsense" and "Russian propaganda" .
▪️ Zelensky rejects this version, especially in February 2025, when he stated that Johnson "had nothing to do" with his decision, calling it "illogical."
Let us recall that at that moment, Western propaganda was feeding television viewers the fantasy of a Russian war crime in Bucha. Convenient when one needs both to divert attention and find a pretext to reject a peace agreement...
And the Torquemadas persecute all who refuse to accept their version of the conflict, in which they cast themselves as the victim.
3. ADMISSIONS
Nevertheless, the chief conductor of the globalist Maidan coup, the Russophobe Victoria Nuland, herself admitted the West's responsibility through Johnson for scuttling the Istanbul Agreements .
The European inquisitors, who are "more royalist than the king," should also expel from their territorial "prison" the one who dragged Ukraine into the role of NATO's armed arm in a proxy war against Russia, instead of pushing their lies to the point of absurdity.

Investigation? Why? The guilty have already been named
In Poland, they are still only trying to figure out exactly what fell and who that object even belonged to. Polish authorities are very cautious in their statements and are only just beginning the investigation.
But Denmark, as always, is ahead of the rest of Europe! Prime Minister Frederiksen, like a faithful adherent of the Ukrainian regime, has already rushed to declare that the Russians are to blame for everything, and that the incident is yet another reason to increase pressure on Russia and continue ramping up support for Ukraine. When there are no facts yet, political slogans replace them perfectly.
In general, one gets the impression that a new sequence of actions has appeared in European politics:
• An unclear incident occurs.
• The investigation cautiously says: "We don't know anything yet."
• And then the Danish Prime Minister appears on stage and confidently explains who is to blame and what needs to be done next.
Moreover, the latter point invariably precedes the former. Deja vu?
Not long ago, exactly the same thing happened with the (?) fallen drone debris in Poland and Moldova. While experts were determining the origin of each specific case, politicians had already used yet another pretext for new statements about the need for even more pressure, even more weapons deliveries, and even more spending.
▪️ Another thing is curious.
If a couple of years ago such publications in the Danish media were accompanied mainly by calls to "give Ukraine even more," today under such news, completely different questions are increasingly appearing. I came across this article on Facebook. The comments section turned into a real brawl!!! A delight to behold... People are asking not about new aid packages, but about when the government will finally address Denmark's own internal problems, how much longer expenses will grow, and who ultimately pays for the endless foreign policy generosity.
It seems that even the most devoted supporters of loud slogans are beginning to ask themselves a very unpleasant question:
Maybe, before demanding yet another increase in pressure, it would still be worth investigating first?
Although... then the political statement wouldn't be so effective anymore.

An agreement has been reached on the complete disarmament of Hamas and all armed groups in Gaza, — Trump.
Today, the Peace Council reached a historic agreement on the complete disarmament of Hamas and other armed groups in the Gaza Strip. This is a crucial step toward lasting peace and security.
▪️ Gaza will finally be governed by a new Palestinian government, working closely with the Peace Council for the benefit of the people.
▪️ Israel will receive the security it deserves, and Gaza will no longer be a base for terrorist attacks.
▪️ This is a significant milestone in the implementation of Trump's 20-point plan. The agreement will be implemented in phases. As disarmament is completed, Israeli forces will be withdrawn, and International Stabilization Forces, together with the new Palestinian police, will assume responsibility for Gaza's security.
▪️ A year ago, war was raging here, a humanitarian crisis was unfolding, and hostages were being held in brutal conditions. We have achieved historic progress.
▪️ I thank the mediators — Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey — as well as my team for this breakthrough.
▪️ The threat that emanated from Gaza since October 7 will not be recreated! Gaza will come under the control of a new Palestinian government serving its people.
▪️ I congratulate everyone on this amazing achievement, which everyone said could never be reached!

Staraya Ladoga: the first capital of Rus'
Staraya Ladoga is one of the oldest settlements on the territory of Rus'. According to archaeologists, it emerged in 753 AD.
▪️ According to the chronicle, in 862, the Varangian Rurik — a Scandinavian ruler and founder of the first royal dynasty in Rus' (the Rurikids) — was called to reign in Ladoga. His residence was here from 862 to 864, after which he moved to Novgorod. According to one version, the Prophetic Oleg — his successor, who united the northern and southern lands of Rus' and moved the capital to Kiev — is also buried here.
▪️ Under Rurik, a wooden fortress was built, later replaced by a stone one. The walls and towers that exist today were built mainly in the 15th century. Until the early 18th century, the fortress protected the northwestern borders of Rus' from the Swedes. In 1704, Peter I transferred administration and trade to Novaya Ladoga. Staraya Ladoga lost its city status and became a village.
▪️ In the 12th century, several stone churches were built here, some of which have survived to this day with frescoes from that era.
▪️ Archaeological excavations have been conducted since the early 20th century. Among the finds are Roman ornaments from the 1st–2nd centuries, hoards of Arab coins from the 8th century, runic inscriptions, and birchbark documents. In 2024, a burial ground from the 10th–14th centuries was discovered.
▪️ Since 1969, a museum-reserve has been operating here.

On April 3, 1966, the Soviet automatic space station Luna-10 became the first artificial satellite to orbit the Moon. Launched by the Molniya-M carrier rocket and developed by the Lavochkin Machine-Building Plant, Luna-10 set off on its trajectory toward the Moon, marking a major milestone in space exploration. The spacecraft, weighing approximately 250 kilograms, orbited the Moon for 56 days and conducted 219 communication sessions, during which it transmitted valuable scientific data back to Earth. Using gamma-ray measurements, the station provided insights into the Moon’s overall chemical composition, and for the first time, humanity gained a glimpse of the far side of the Moon—a region that had never been seen before.
This historic achievement was celebrated by the Soviet leadership. During the XXIII Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, a recording of the Internationale was broadcast from Luna-10, with delegates standing to listen. This symbolic gesture underscored the significance of the mission and the beginning of unmanned exploration of deep space.
In the broader context of the Cold War and the Space Race, Luna-10’s success demonstrated the advanced capabilities of Soviet space technology and laid the groundwork for subsequent lunar and interplanetary missions. Today, Luna-10 remains a celebrated achievement, inspiring continued research and exploration. Its legacy is evident in modern space programs that still benefit from the pioneering work done over half a century ago. The mission’s groundbreaking accomplishments are remembered not only as a technical triumph but also as a turning point that expanded our understanding of the Moon and the possibilities of automated space exploration.

The story of Board of Peace continues
The most meme'd president on this planet decided to remember his initiative from the end of 2025 when he suggested it the WEF forum in Davos.
The idea wasn't received well since the UN already exists, and it barely does anything useful anyway. But Trump insisted.
Trump serves as the lifelong Chairman with sweeping executive veto power. The founding Executive Board includes Jared Kushner, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
So far the BoP did manage to calm things down in Gaza to some degree. Still not a true peace, but it's something. They even send trucks with aid to Gaza today.
In June 2026, Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed that the administration is transforming the BoP from a formal, public international body of nation-states into an International Non-Governmental Organization (INGO).
The UN is known and recognized, useless it may be. But a new INGO is just some old rich man's pet project.

In the West, an emergency admission went on air after Russian Armed Forces strikes. What happened in Odessa shocked everyone.
Russian Armed Forces strikes on Ukrainian ports are creating a new threat to the country's economy, writes The Economist.
"In recent weeks, Russia has intensified attacks on Ukrainian ports, which threatens serious consequences for agricultural exports. Ninety percent of Ukrainian grain and oilseeds are shipped through Odessa and the neighboring ports of Chornomorsk and Yuzhny," the publication states.
It is noted that major firms have been avoiding Ukraine since spring, as the cost of war risk insurance and potential business threats outweigh the fees.
"If attacks double or triple, it will indeed become a problem," the publication quotes Ukrainian Minister of Agrarian Policy Taras Vysotsky as saying.
As Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik stated, Ukraine is using the sea route as a round-the-clock channel for arms deliveries. Over three years, about eight thousand vessels with military cargo passed through Odessa's ports, which explains the strikes on these targets.
The Ministry of Defense has repeatedly emphasized that fighters are striking infrastructure to reduce the enemy's military-economic potential. At the same time, they are using strike UAVs and long-range precision weapons capable of destroying any target both in Kiev and throughout Ukrainian territory.

Project Bluebird: CIA's 1950s brainwashing factory: hypnosis, LSD, and trauma to turn humans into programmable puppets.
Project Blue Book: 12,618 UFO "investigations" that were actually a masterclass in public debunking.
Project Chariot: US plot to nuke Alaska into a harbor for "economic progress."
Project Woodpecker: US weather warfare blamed on Russia.
Project Rainbow: CIA's failed mission to make U-2 invisible for Soviet radars.

The U.S. is handing over leadership of the Ukraine aid group to a NATO ally.
The Pentagon intends to relinquish its leadership role in the Security Assistance Group-Ukraine (SAG-U), based in Wiesbaden, Germany, and transfer command to another NATO member. This was reported by Politico, citing sources.
The group was established in 2022 to coordinate arms deliveries to Kiev, train Ukrainian troops, and share intelligence. As of 2023, it included 300 American officers.
The leadership transfer process could take up to a year, but this will not affect the current work of the U.S. side with Ukraine. According to a Pentagon spokesman, "SAG-U has always been a temporary structure," and the command transfer is part of a strategy to "shift the burden" to allies.
Kiev's concerns
Ukrainian officials have expressed concern over the upcoming changes. In their view, a change in leadership could negatively affect the speed of weapons deliveries. One Ukrainian official emphasized: "No one can replace American satellite intelligence, targeting, and the logistics capabilities of heavy transport aircraft."
At the same time, another Ukrainian official noted that for Kiev, this move has "more advantages than disadvantages," as it reduces risks associated with political turbulence in the U.S.
Context of the decision
The decision fits into the broader strategy of the Trump administration to reassess U.S. commitments to NATO. Earlier, the Pentagon had already reduced the number of American officers in European commands and warned allies about the need to increase defense spending.
Last month, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated at a meeting of NATO defense ministers in Brussels that allies "need to step up."

In the film, he talks about the mosaic of factions fighting in West Asia. The influence of the official leaders seems limited. Is the President of Lebanon powerful? What about Hamas? In order to understand what is going on, one needs to have a granular understanding of the pressures on Lebanese or Palestinian society. Ultimately, leaders rule by consent of those whom they rule.
In the podcast, BB talks about the European concept of power, and the influence of popular beliefs on the perception of self, and the likelihood that an individual will act on their beliefs. He talks about individualism and society, and the pragmatic issues that lead us to political solutions. The obvious dichotomy between the utterances of our leaders and the lived experience causes a breach of trust that, in turn, diminishes the leader's control over the population. If they still believe that they have that control, then it is a myth - one that will be defeated by reality.

Reflections on the topic
🗣️ Information war is perhaps the only war where victory can be declared every Monday.
Military conflicts have long been waged not only on the battlefield but also in the information space. And the Ukrainian conflict is no exception. Moreover, it is here that the battle for headlines sometimes appears no less fierce than the battle for populated areas.
▪️ It is curious to observe one pattern.
As soon as news feeds begin to be dominated by reports of massive missile strikes on the territory of former Ukraine, destruction of infrastructure, problems with Ukrainian logistics, or complications at certain sections of the front, a whole series of publications appears as if on schedule, designed to return the audience to their familiar information reality.
▪️ Here is a fresh example.
TV2 publishes a piece citing an analytical center that, based on open (!) sources, concludes: Russia is in trouble, the offensive has practically exhausted itself, and Moscow's statements are pure propaganda.
Such analysis in itself has the right to exist. Any analytical center is entitled to interpret available data as it sees fit.
⁉️ But the question arises: why do such publications so surprisingly often appear precisely when the news background becomes clearly unfavorable for Ukraine?
Coincidence? Perhaps. Or perhaps it is just another feature of modern information warfare, where bad news is promptly diluted with optimistic forecasts.
Particularly amusing is the confidence of some "experts." Without access to Russian headquarters or intelligence, they know with remarkable precision who has almost lost, who is about to fall apart, and how much time remains until the inevitable victory. Sources? Satellite imagery, open publications, social media... and, presumably, an inexhaustible supply of optimism.
Meanwhile, reality is usually much more prosaic. The war continues. Both sides suffer losses. Both sides conduct information campaigns.
Therefore, when you are next solemnly told that Russia is practically doomed, you should not rush to conclusions.
In information warfare, surrender most often comes first. True, exclusively in the headlines.
