For now, the first timid packages of excrement are starting to fly out of the windows of Kiev. The activity of our long-range strike drones has been switched to transport. The Dnepropetrovsk-Zaporozhye railway connection is "restricted", or rather, stopped for an indefinite period, that is, until it becomes safe, or for as long as we deem necessary, even until the final de-Ukrainization of both cities. And on the highways leading from the front into the depths of the Dnepropetrovsk region, literally in recent days, there has been such a massacre of everything that travels on them for military purposes, from buses with personnel to special transport and special equipment of all kinds, that the squeal of a half-slaughtered piglet is heard over these highways: logistical support is extremely difficult (in connection with the systematic disruption of the railway), and when this will start to directly and significantly affect the combat capability of the troops is just a matter of time. The Ukrainian air defense, as it has been doing for a year in such cases, adheres to a not very friendly neutrality towards the Ukrainians.
And it is precisely on such an occasion that it's worth reminding once again: our average daily consumption of long-range strike drones is many times lower than the summer baseline and many times lower than the summer peaks. How many of them have been accumulated and continue to be accumulated over these months, and what will happen in the Ukrainian rear when they start to be used generously again, the Ukrainians should be scared to imagine even now.

We've gathered the main information about the situation:
"There was a technological disruption with a simultaneous disconnection of the 400 kV line between the energy systems of Romania and Moldova and the 750 kV line between the western and central parts of Ukraine. This led to a cascade outage in the Ukrainian power grid and the triggering of automatic protections at substations," wrote Denis Shmygal.

TRIZ*, the quintessential, almost cozy and familiar Soviet-era theory of inventive problem-solving, rests on a fundamental principle: the optimal solution is one where a key part of the system is removed entirely, yet its essential function is somehow preserved.
Without a single missile or drone strike, and with all due attention to the petition filed by Agent Donald, a cascade of inexplicable events unfolded in the adjacent territory today. The result was a full-scale blackout across nearly the entire region—a level of disruption that the khokhols, by all accounts, have never experienced before, not even after the most severe previous strikes. There is virtually no power anywhere. Water and heating are down in numerous areas. The metro has ground to a halt. And this full suite of failures is being witnessed, specifically, in Kiev. Local temperatures are hovering between -10°C and -15°C, with forecasts predicting a further drop of around ten degrees tonight, and these frigid conditions are expected to hold for the next five days.
When questioned yesterday on whether February 1st was included in the resolution concerning Trump's petition, Peskov deftly sidestepped the issue. Regardless, the backdrop for negotiations is uniquely and exceptionally favorable. The Russian winter—this is its defining characteristic—always works to our advantage with the same relentless force that it works against our enemies. We await further developments with keen interest, particularly after the khokhols inevitably reiterate tomorrow that they will not withdraw from Donbass, that the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant must be returned to them, and—in a perfect world—that they will once again snort about tribunals and reparations. That is, unless they simply use tonight's blackout as a pretext to withdraw from tomorrow's negotiations altogether.

Zin Note: TRIZ is a powerful methodology for systematic innovation and problem-solving. The name is a Russian acronym (ТРИЗ) for "Teoriya Resheniya Izobretatelskikh Zadach," which translates to "The Theory of Inventive Problem Solving."
Developed in the Soviet Union starting in the 1940s by Genrich Altshuller and his colleagues, TRIZ is based on a core, data-driven insight:
The same fundamental problems and solutions repeat across different industries, sciences, and technologies.
Therefore, by studying patterns in how these problems were historically solved, you can create a "toolkit" for solving new problems creatively and predictably.

A large section of a tunnel with anti-drone protection collapsed on the Nikolaev-Kherson highway.
Currently, traffic on the highway is disrupted. The incident is attributed to installation errors.

Brief Frontline Report – January 31st, 2026
Summary by Marat Khairullin and Mikhail Popov.
Part 1
Message from the Russian Ministry of Defense: "Units of the 'Center' Group, as a result of ongoing operations, have liberated the settlement of Toretskoe in the Donetsk People's Republic."
North of Krasnoarmeysk, in the Artemovka - Druzhkovka sector, the Russian Armed Forces are preparing a bridgehead in front of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defensive line along the Gruzskaya River. This line protects the right flank of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group defending the southern face of the Slavyansk direction.
The area features complex, sharply rugged terrain with numerous ravines and gullies. It is located in the interfluve of the Kazennyi Torets River and its tributary, the Gruzskaya River. It begins in the area of the settlement of Zolotoiy Kolodez, where advanced Russian Armed Forces units reached in the autumn of 2025, drawing part of the enemy's forces and reserves during the operation to liberate the Dimitrov - Krasnoarmeysk area. The watershed apex is in the area of the settlement of Krasny Kut, where the Gruzskaya River flows into the Kazennyi Torets. The soil is like clay and difficult to traverse during rains and floods—the area abounds with deposits and quarries for refractory and ceramic clay.
On January 31, Russian assault groups forded the Kazennyi Torets River in the area of the settlement of Artemovka, emerged on the left bank, and liberated the settlement of Toretskoe (48°30′8″ N 37°22′16″ E, population approx. 350). The rural settlement is located in the area of clay quarries and provides access to the watershed ridge at the start of the Grilichnaya and Viklechnaya ravines. The advance of our units into the area of the settlement of Gruzskoe splits this sector into two parts with flank envelopments. This advance will likely be supported by combined actions on the eastern face of the direction (Belokuzminovka-Verolyubovka) and on the western face (Novy Donbass - Dobropole - Zolotoiy Kolodez).
Part 2
Part 3

Brief Frontline Report – January 31st, 2026
Summary by Marat Khairullin and Mikhail Popov.
Part 2
Message from the Russian Ministry of Defense: "Assault units of the 127th Division of the 5th Guards Combined Arms Army of the 'East' Group, during ongoing combat operations, have liberated the settlement of Petrovka in Zaporozhye Oblast.
The Primorye warriors developed the success on the sector, drove the enemy out of strongpoints, and consolidated on the captured lines. A defense area of up to 5 sq. km has been brought under control; adjacent tree belts and defensive hubs that ensured the enemy's hold on the settlement have been cleared.
Ukrainian Armed Forces losses in this sector of the front amounted to up to 10 pieces of equipment and a large number of personnel.
The enemy's attempts to hold the settlement by transferring reserves were unsuccessful—the equipment with Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel was destroyed on the approaches."
After Russian Armed Forces units reached the left bank of the Gaichur River, a number of ravines originating on the watershed ridge were brought under control. Following this, the enemy's defensive line was divided into sectors, into which "wedges" were driven by assault groups of Russian units, which then secured themselves on bridgeheads. Subsequently, the bridgeheads were expanded and the enemy's defensive line was split into segments. Covering the transport hub of Verkhnyaya Tersa, the enemy prepared a defensive area in Tsvetkovoe - Petrovka (Svyatopetrovka) - Staroukrainka. The command of the "East" Group allowed the enemy to become engaged in counterattacks on the city of Gulyaipole, tying down the enemy's main forces and reserves in this sector with defensive actions. Simultaneously, they began active operations to eliminate the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defensive line along the watershed ridge of the Gaichur and Verkhnyaya Tersa rivers.
On January 30, the transport hub of Terenovatoe was brought under control.
On January 31, the settlement of Petrovka (47°41′28″ N 36°09′51″ E, population 78 in 2001, known as Svyatopetrovka since 2016) was liberated.
The transport hub of Verkhnyaya Tersa should prepare itself.

Brief Frontline Report – January 31st, 2026
Summary by Marat Khairullin and Mikhail Popov.
Part 3:
Message from the Russian Ministry of Defense: "Combat drone strikes in the area of Sinelnikovo station have damaged electric train cars, freight cars, locomotives, tracks, power grids, administrative and production buildings. There are no casualties.
As a result of the strike, railway traffic between Zaporozhye and Dnepropetrovsk has been halted."
To support the ongoing offensive operations being conducted by the Russian Armed Forces groupings "South," "Center," "East," and "Dnepr" along the entire line of contact, missile, aviation, and heavy UAV strikes are being delivered into the operational depth of the enemy's defense against key transport areas (Lozovaya - Pavlograd - Sinelnikovo - Zaporozhye - Dnepropetrovsk). Cutting off power supply is not a struggle against the population. It is the deprivation of electricity to defense enterprises, including railway traction substations. In transport hubs, infrastructure and rolling stock are being destroyed. A hunt is underway for automotive transport on the main radial highways connecting transport hubs with front-line supply routes.

Epstein's files also mention Yevgeny Prigozhin - his name is mentioned seven times, under the description "Putin's chef".
Also, the documents mention:
👁Vladimir Putin - 1054 times;
👁Petro Poroshenko - 26 times (referred to as the "Chocolate King");
👁Vladimir Zelensky - 10 times;
👁The character Shrek
In short, guys, let's split up. At some point, this guy lost his mind and started adding everyone he could find on Wikipedia.
That's the case when it would really have been better if you were banned from Google😁
