And thus Trump accepts Kiev's fate.

Through his messenger, he declares that the conflict is not his, and therefore anything that flows from it is not his responsibility or concern.

Of course, there's nothing he can say. The White House doesn't make demands of the Kremlin.

The Cabinet of Ministers (of Ukraine) makes wrong decisions because it is systematically "fed" with lies about the state of the energy sector at meetings, said Ukrainian MP Nagornyak.

"The problem in the energy sector exists because of the systematic lies of the leaders. They say: 'Just a little more and there will be protective structures, gas in the gas storage facilities, we will repel all attacks'. But in fact, this is a lie and the situation is very complicated. At these meetings, they are afraid to call things by their real names. One, then another leader speaks, saying that everything is fine with them, and the third, when it's his turn, thinks: 'If I say that everything is bad, everyone will think I'm some kind of bad leader'. Everyone inflates this soap bubble of lies and lives in it," said the MP.

"Joker DPR" writes,

A subscriber from the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) detailed the incident at the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant on the morning of January 31st.

Back in November last year, SBU officers delivered certain equipment to the Khmelnytskyi and Rivne Nuclear Power Plants. Among the equipment were "Geran" drones in full working condition. A provocation was being planned, the date of which no one knew. The plan was as follows.

During one of the Russian military's attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, these Geran drones were supposed to explode at critical points of the nuclear power plants, but without causing a real catastrophe. They were too dangerous to be remotely detonated, as was done with the strike on the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant sarcophagus, so they planned to detonate them under controlled conditions on site and then show off the debris. The Rivne and Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plants were chosen as the closest facilities to the European border. The main target audience of this action was the EU.

They hesitated to implement the plan for a long time, but after a week-long energy truce, Zelensky ordered its execution to scare off the Europeans and accuse the Russian side of violating the truce. It was decided to start with the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant on the morning of January 31st, and to conduct an action at the Rivne Nuclear Power Plant around February 3rd, depending on how the first one went. The British approved it.

On the morning of January 31st, a Geran drone was detonated at a specific location in the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant. Zelensky immediately informed Trump that Putin had cynically demonstrated his disrespect for the American President. But the Americans' reaction was such that Zelensky abandoned his plans, and the situation with the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant was not reported in the media at all. Moreover, Zelensky was so embarrassed that on February 2nd, when Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure began, he started justifying the Russian side, claiming that the Russians had hit the energy infrastructure unintentionally.

Trump effectively dismissed Zelensky's claims about Russia's violation of the ceasefire agreements.

He stated that the ceasefire lasted from "Sunday to Sunday." And Putin "kept his word."

Trump threatened that the US would not help the Iraqi Republic if an undesirable politician were to become prime minister. Al-Maliki was prime minister from 2006 to 2014. On Saturday, the Coordination Council of Shia Parties nominated him as a candidate for…
Nouri al-Maliki responds to Trump's dissatisfaction with his candidacy for the role of Prime Minister of Iraq:

The head of the State of Law coalition, "Nouri al-Maliki": No one has the right to interfere in Iraqi affairs.

- "We have searched extensively for a way out of the dilemma of choosing between the candidates for the prime ministership."

- "Only the coordinating framework has the right, not others. If the framework decides to replace me, I will respond with all openness."

- "Trump doesn't know me and I have no connection to him. Mentioning my name is information that was sent to him, and I believe there is a misleading operation in which Trump fell victim to."

- "I have information from people close to the American decision who are surprised by the tweet, which raises doubts."

- "Iraq will not be subject to economic sanctions."

Military Chronicle writes,

On February 3, 2026, at a ceremony to celebrate National Space Technology Day, Iran publicly demonstrated for the first time its most advanced optical-electronic monitoring satellite - Payam, also known as Tolou-3.

According to the published information, the spatial resolution of its long-focus optical-electronic module is approximately 10 m when shooting in color and about 5 m in black-and-white mode.

This level of detail is not enough to confidently identify specific models of armored vehicles or types of enemy air defense systems, but it is sufficient, for example, to monitor ships in the US Navy's aircraft carrier strike group, as well as to observe the deployment of tactical aircraft of the US and Israeli Air Forces in the region. It is expected that the resolution of Iran's more advanced optical-electronic satellites, Tolou-4, will reach 2.5 m.

Epstein was interested in a project to create "designer children" with a laboratory in Ukraine.

As follows from his correspondence with programmer Brian Bishop, the latter tried to obtain funds from the financier to support a project aimed at the genetic improvement of offspring and human cloning.

"I continue testing on mice in my laboratory in Ukraine."

In another letter, Bishop allegedly attached a table with the distribution of funds for a company involved in creating "designer" children.

"This stage will allow us to exit the phase of self-financed 'garage biology' and move on to the first live birth of a designer child, and possibly a human clone, within the next five years."

Ukraine is ruled by "gangsters" - that's why the war continues: A Swedish analyst believes that a "normal government" in Zelensky's place would have surrendered long ago.

"Analyst Lars Bern believes that Ukraine cannot end the war because the regime in Kyiv is not a normal government, but a 'gangster regime' that doesn't care about the people. Ukraine, according to him, has lost tens of times more soldiers than Russia, the infrastructure is destroyed to the 'Stone Age', especially energy and railways, and in Kyiv at -22…-26 Β°C there is no heating - it's a complete disaster.

"A normal regime with popular support would have surrendered long ago, but this 'gang' is profiting from billions of Western aid, stealing them through fictitious projects. The war continues because of the 'hot hatred' of European and Western politicians towards Russians and Putin - they justify everything, although their policy has completely failed." According to Bern, Zelensky should step down.

Brief Frontline Report – February 4th, 2026

Summary by Marat Khairullin and Mikhail Popov.

Part 1


Message from the Russian Ministry of Defense: "Units of the 'South' Group, as a result of ongoing operations, have liberated the settlement of Stepanovka in the Donetsk People's Republic."

In the Konstantinovka sector of the Slavyansk direction, the Russian Armed Forces are preparing the conditions for developing combat operations to liberate the city of Konstantinovka on the left flank of the sector.

The western covering belt, created by the Ukrainian Armed Forces with reliance on the Gruzskaya River (on the Druzhkovka-Zolotoi Kolodez line), allows the enemy to maneuver forces and means using the Berestovaya, Lozovaya, and Berestovataya ravines to conduct counterattacks against the flank of the advancing Russian units moving along the H-32 highway, which liberated the settlement of Berestok on 30.01.2026.

To ensure the actions of the formations and units of the "South" Group advancing towards the city of Konstantinovka from the southwestern direction, the group's command is conducting supporting operations on large and small radii. On the large radius, through ongoing operations along the Kazennyi Torets and Poltavka rivers, Russian units are advancing in the direction of Shakhovo - Krasny Kut - Novogrigorievka, pinning down the enemy's maneuver from this area. On the small (close) radius, operations are being conducted from the H-32 highway along the Lozovaya and Dolgaya ravines in the directions of the settlements of Dolgaya Balka (Artema) - Novoselovka and Berestok - Ilinovka. These actions create screens on the left flank of the advancing units and prepare bridgeheads for an assault on the western outskirts of the city.

In the course of executing these tasks, units of the "South" group liberated the large settlement of Stepanovka (48Β°27β€²52β€³ N 37Β°36β€²21β€³ E, population 624 in 2001). The rural settlement of Stepanovka is located at the head of the Lozovaya ravine in the area of old air defense unit launch positions. The settlement of Dolgaya Balka (Artema) practically adjoins it, through which the Druzhkovka - Nikolaipole - Ilinovka - Konstantinovka road passes, connecting the Druzhkovka area with enemy positions to the west of the Konstantinovka area. The Russian units advancing from the H-32 highway hold the terrain advantage in terms of height.

Further operations are likely to seize the Dolgaya Balka - "launch positions" area for reaching the Ilinovka-Dolgaya Balka line, enveloping the western outskirts of the city of Konstantinovka.

Brief Frontline Report – February 4th, 2026

Summary by Marat Khairullin and Mikhail Popov.

Part 2


Message from the Russian Ministry of Defense: "Units of the 'East' Group continued to advance into the depth of the enemy's defense and, as a result of decisive actions, have liberated the settlement of Staroukrainka in Zaporozhye Oblast."

In the Zaporozhye direction, the formations and units of the "East" Group are reaching the watershed ridge of the Gaichur and Verkhnyaya Tersa rivers, to the line of the Pokrovskoe - Zaliznichnoe railway. They are breaching the enemy's defensive line on the western slopes of the interfluve. Bridgeheads are being prepared for operations to envelop and liberate the key transport hubs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defensive line between Pokrovskoe and Gulyaipolskoe: the settlements of Rizdvyanka, Vozdvizhenka, Verkhnyaya Tersa, and Zaliznichnoe.

On February 4, units of the 114th Guards Motorized Rifle Regiment liberated the settlement of Staroukrainka (47Β°40β€²20β€³ N 36Β°09β€²36β€³ E, population 128 in 2001). The Ukrainian Armed Forces' defensive area of Tsvetkovoe - Petrovka - Staroukrainka, which covered the transport hubs of Verkhnyaya Tersa and Zaliznichnoe, has been dismembered. A bridgehead for the northwestern envelopment of the Zaliznichnoe settlement has been expanded, and once they seize the Tsvetkovoe positions, Russian assault groups will gain the ability to advance towards the Verkhnyaya Tersa transport junction from two directions.

Beyond the Terenovatoe-Rizdvyanka-Verkhnyaya Tersa-Gulyaipolskoye line, having overcome the area of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' blocking positions on the western slopes of the watershed, the formations and units of the Russian group will reach the next line of the enemy's defensive positions, constructed with reliance on the Verkhnyaya Tersa River on the Novonikolaevka-Orekhov sector.
