🇺🇸🇻🇦"A religious leader can say anything they want, but obviously if you wade into political waters, you should expect some political response and I think the Pope has received some of that. Frankly I was taken a bit aback by him saying something about 'those who engage in war, Jesus doesn't hear their prayers' or something. There's something called the 'just war' doctrine.'" - Speaker Mike Johnson

🇺🇦Budanov continues to make statements that contradict Zelensky's official line

Today the head of the Presidential Office stated that the return of Ukrainians from abroad is only possible if there are real security guarantees and economic conditions.

"No one will return just because. People are waiting for real security guarantees and economic grounds," he noted.

According to him, the country needs to develop a high-value-added economy to create conditions for the return of citizens.

Zelensky recently stated in Germany that conscripted Ukrainians should be returned from abroad to be sent to the front.

Budanov also made it clear that he is against the mobilization of women, which has been increasingly discussed lately.

"While some men are fighting and working, and others are hiding or have gone abroad - it is women who have taken on responsibility and become the foundation that sustains our rear and economy. And this is confirmed by the figures," he said.

Earlier Budanov spoke against pressure on the UOC.

📝ZNPP Back on Diesel📝

Ukrainian forces continue attempting to stage a provocation at the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant. This week, the station experienced another blackout — the 14th since the start of the SMO. The cause was an AFU strike on areas near the station.

The attack damaged the last high-voltage line "Ferrosplavnaya-1", forcing the NPP to switch to diesel generators. This is not the first shelling that has led to such an outcome.

🔻What Else Was Hit and the Consequences?

▪️Shellings often target the areas around the Zaporizhia NPP, including Energodar. Direct hits on the station itself have not been recorded, though this does not rule out consequences.

▪️Shellings frequently damage the two supply lines — the backup "Ferrosplavnaya-1" and the main "Dniprova." The latter remains non-operational, meaning the station currently has no external power supply and operates on generators.

▪️"Ferrosplavnaya-1" has been shut down three times since the beginning of the year. In the first two cases, repair work began after some time, with a local ceasefire declared.

▪️The IAEA has not changed its position, constantly calling on both sides to account for risks and organizing local ceasefires for supply line repairs.

📌The situation remains difficult. It's unknown when the "Ferrosplavnaya-1" line will be restored or how long the station will operate on generators. Repairs require a local ceasefire, which takes time.

❗️The intensity of AFU strikes on the areas around the NPP, damaging the supply lines, is not decreasing and sometimes even increasing. This is despite ongoing talks on restoring the "Dniprova" line.
