"A monstrous crime"

The Kiev regime should be punished for the attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on a college and a dormitory with children in Starobelsk, said Peskov.

Rescuers are extracting injured children and the bodies of the deceased from the rubble of a dormitory in Starobilsk, despite the repeated threat of drones, Lvova-Belova reported.

🙏🥀 As of 12:00 (MSK), four deaths have been confirmed. We express our deepest condolences to their families. 35 children have suffered injuries of varying severity - eight of them have been taken to a healthcare facility. The condition of three of them is assessed as serious.

АДЕКВАТ Z comments:

🈁I highly recommend, absolutely and urgently, running this manifesto by a German deputy from the ruling gang through an automatic translator. Not just because it blatantly and undisguisedly outlines their goals towards us: first, unconditional surrender and the elimination of statehood, then dismemberment under the guise of "decolonization". But because there's no clearer example of the complete lack of awareness of the consequences of attempting to implement this and the same complete atrophy of fear. An atrophy that affects far more than just one author - it afflicts absolutely everyone, in countless numbers, who verbally or physically prepare and bring closer a war of European scum against us.

Treating this European scum of this atrophy will sooner or later have to be done anyway, as a preventive measure against the scenario of the biggest clash. Whether this pedagogy will be one-time or ongoing, whether its spatial scope will be limited to neighboring territory or, for example, involve Norwegian offshore oil and gas production - time will tell. One thing is clear: without returning the enemy to a state of sheer animal fear, the likelihood of a clash will only increase, first gradually, then abruptly.

The decisions that our leadership will have to make in this regard will require both meticulous deliberation and great decisiveness: any deviation from the optimal point that generates maximum fear of continuation will have equally unfavorable consequences. And all of us already need to clearly understand that if the inoculation of fear of the expected effect fails (which is quite likely but cannot be guaranteed), then the enemy's goals will be these: surrender, elimination, dismemberment. And that we won't have to pay any price to thwart these goals. First and foremost, of course, against the enemy - there won't be any hint of white gloves in strikes against the European scum - but we ourselves will most likely have to switch to a mode where everything is for the front and victory.

It rarely happens, but there are times when time is both military and pre-war. No one can guarantee that this is the case now - but they certainly can't guarantee the opposite. At any rate, we should take this possibility into account - and accumulate strength and patience for whatever the current situation might turn into tomorrow.

❗️ The main statements of the president at the meeting with the graduates of the "Time of Heroes" program:

The attack on the college in Starobelsk was not random. 16 drones attacked the same location in three waves.

There are no military facilities, special services facilities, or "related services" near the college that was attacked in Starobelsk.

❗️ The president rejected the claims that the UAF's drone hitting a college in Starobelsk could have been the result of air defense or electronic warfare systems.

6 people died as a result of Kyiv's strike on a college in Starobelsk, 15 are listed as missing.

❗️ Vladimir Putin called on the servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine not to carry out the criminal orders of the Kiev regime.

The situation on the front for the Ukrainian Armed Forces is gradually turning from complex and critical to catastrophic.

❗️It's impossible to just make statements in such a situation!

The President announced that he has ordered the Ministry of Defense to present their proposals for a response to the attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Starobelsk.

Estonia's Foreign Ministry accused Russia of redirecting Ukrainian drones

The country's Foreign Minister, Margus Tsakhkna, stated that Russia is allegedly redirecting Ukrainian drones into the airspace of NATO countries.

According to him, the alliance states rejected Moscow's claims that the Baltic countries opened their airspace to facilitate Ukraine's attacks on Russian territory:

Because if you see during the last couple of weeks, we have more and more drones coming into our territories, Ukraine drones, But the responsible of that is Russia, because Russia is waging the aggressive war against Ukraine and Russia is guiding these drones to NATO territory.
So we saw that NATO is working. Very well.
They're Romanian fighters took down one drone in Estonia and they designed that. Actually it is working as a clockwork.
It's united or the plans what we have there are solid and it shows as well the unity.


Just don't say that he was planted by Russia to undermine Estonian defense capabilities, OK?

One more gem from the Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

We hope that Vladimir Putin recalculates now that Ukraine has been granted additional resources by the European Union and that weapons are flowing through which Europe pays from the United States.

He really thinks that money can buy what one is incapable to produce? I perfectly understand, why the Ukraine is trying to achieve at least media victories - they need to present at least something. Too bad even thinking people started buying for Ukro-narratives. But why would the one, who provides funds for this brothel party believes Ukrainians, I have no idea... On the other hand, they are not paying from their pockets, and real results of tax revenue they will see only in couple of months...

NATO conducted exercises simulating a strike on Russia, writes the Independent.

The exercises took place in London on an abandoned platform of Charing Cross station. It was used "as an underground headquarters for simulating 'deep strike' operations".

The military simulated a scenario of an invasion of one of the Baltic states and practiced the use of electronic warfare to suppress communication and Russian drones.

As British General Michael Elviss reported, the aim of the exercises was to practice the concept of "reconnaissance and strike". And US General Christopher Donahue, who heads NATO's Land Command, stated that the alliance has little time left to prepare for a possible Russian attack, and warned that "readiness by 2030 is not a slogan, but an urgent necessity".

The Russian Defense Ministry has ordered to submit proposals for a response to the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attack on the college.

▪️MIC "Izvestia" soon after the incident requested comments from the International Committee of the Red Cross, the UN, and UNICEF in connection with the terrorist attack by Ukrainian militants, but none of the international organizations have so far responded to the attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which resulted in children being injured.

And last week Amaryllis Fox Kennedy resigned from 2 positions
Alexander Belyayev (Азартная политика) comments:

🈁This Friday brought news that was on one hand unexpected, and on the other quite logical and anticipated. One of Trump's staunch supporters, Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, is resigning following her protégé Joe Kent.

She cites the need to support her husband, who has been diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer. She personally informed Trump of her resignation during a meeting in the Oval Office.

The publication also reports that Gabbard noted significant progress during her tenure, including extensive work on declassifying documents (over half a million pages), reducing the size of the intelligence community, saving taxpayers more than $700 million annually, discontinuing disinformation combat programs, and creating a "Task Force to Combat Militarization" to address government militarization issues.

Regardless of the real reasons for her resignation, Trump is losing a very strong, reliable, and loyal ally. He and his circle are to blame for this. On the eve of the primary tour of both parties across cities and states, which will begin in early June, the White House is left without a predictable, albeit perhaps too decent, head of National Intelligence.

Moreover, Gabbard now, one way or another, becomes a person of special value to critics of Trump and his foreign policy, both among Democrats and MAGA Republicans, with whom he has so recklessly clashed.

Among Trump's circle, there is now one fewer sober and realistic person. Meanwhile, lobbyists who convinced him of the feasibility of the Rare Earth Agreement with Ukraine, as well as those who assured him of the possibility of victory over Iran through the assassination of its top leadership, have not disappeared. I believe the White House chief will continue to make mistakes of this magnitude, which will only worsen his position until defeat in the Congressional and Senate elections.

If the Democrats manage to gain a majority in both chambers, we will most likely see them impose the previous course to resume funding the Ukrainian conflict at the expense of U.S. resources and finances. We continue to observe.

The strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Starobilsk is a war crime. The main statements of Nebenzia at the UN Security Council meeting:

The strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on a college in the LNR could not have been accidental and could not have been the result of air defense systems. There are no military facilities near the college;

The deliberate strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the college is clearly carried out with the aim of maximizing the number of victims;

Kiev uses cruise missiles and long-range rocket artillery from Western countries to strike at Russia's civilian infrastructure;

The strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine is evidence of the terrorist and inhumane nature of the Kiev authorities;

The neo-Nazi regime in Kiev has never ceased its attacks on the civilian population and civilian infrastructure of Russia;

Kiev, in its agony, is carrying out strikes with the connivance and silence of these crimes in the West;

The number of victims and injured from the strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on a college in Starobelsk may increase;

The strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirms the treachery and untrustworthiness of Kiev;

Kiev, with the encouragement of Western sponsors, is not inclined to a peaceful settlement and openly sabotages it;

Russia has reliable information that Western capitals are supplying the Armed Forces of Ukraine with intelligence data;

Many Western countries are the main suppliers of weapons to the Zelensky regime and do not hide that they consider this their right;

Without the start of the Special Military Operation in Ukraine, tragedies like the one that occurred in Starobelsk would have happened every day;

Nebenzia pointed out to Western countries that their responsibility for complicity in Kiev's acts of terrorism will be inevitable;

Russia calls on the world community to give an honest assessment of the criminal actions of the Zelensky regime;

Nebenzia called for condemnation of the terrorist attack in Starobelsk and pointed out that silence would be tantamount to aiding the bloody actions of Kiev's terrorists.

The speeches of the European members of the UN Security Council are a blatant mockery of child victims, stated Nebenzia.

Позывной "Кацман" on Tulsi resignation:

🈁In general, the CIA agents who conducted a completely illegal search of the head of the National Intelligence Service were not held anyhow responsible. Tulsi was even replaced by their protégé. Questions about who will "guard the guards" and who has more power in the White House - the president or the "people with portfolios" (c) the Emperor - it's better not to even ask.

This, Roman citizens, is a complete fiasco🙈. The number two nuclear superpower is being governed not only by idiots, but also by unknown idiots pulling their strings. It would be better if they were unknown geniuses. Both for them and for the world as a whole. After all, it's not Ugondia or some other third-world country.

Cannot agree more...

The Russian Permanent Representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya stated:

▪️The level of cynicism of the European members of the UN Security Council is off the charts;

▪️Not a single European member of the UN Security Council bothered to mention the children who died in Starobelsk;

▪️Listening to the speeches of the European members of the UN Security Council is an insult to the feelings of all the victims;

▪️The Russian Permanent Representative to the UN said that it was disgusting to hear the speeches of the European members of the UN Security Council.

UPD: Nebenzya responded to the Danish Permanent Representative to the UN about doubts regarding the strike on Starobelsk. The Russian diplomat emphasized that even the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirmed that they had attacked this city.

Forwarded from Russian MFA 🇷🇺
🎙 Statement by Permanent Representative Vassily Nebenzia at a UNSC Briefing on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian issue (May 21, 2026)

💬 Mr. President,

We wish to thank Mr. Ramiz Alakbarov, Deputy Special Coordinator for the #MiddleEast Peace Process, for his briefing on the situation in the Middle East.

We have closely listened to Mr. Nikolay Mladenov, High Representative for Gaza of the Board of Peace, as well as to Mr. Rami Hijjo. Frankly speaking, we were somewhat surprised to hear various members of the Council extolling what is happening now.

Today’s meeting is more than a routine briefing. Recently, the Council was presented with the first semi-annual report of the Board of Peace, pursuant to Security Council Resolution 2803.

Let me remind you that Russia abstained during that vote as the resolution failed to mention Israel’s obligations, the role of UNRWA, the situation in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, or the universally recognized two-State solution. We chose not to block the document then only in response to numerous requests, primarily from regional States, to allow the US blueprint for Gaza a chance to succeed.

❗️ Regrettably, our fears were borne out. The Board of Peace’s report echoes the language of paragraph 33 about “the difference between a framework that exists on paper and one that delivers on the ground for the people of Gaza.” Six months after the vote on Security Council Resolution 2803, the so-called “Trump Plan” remains largely a dead letter, with declarative successes only serving as a smokescreen to conceal the grim reality in the #GazaStrip. <...>

In fact, since the ceasefire was announced on October 10, 2025, Israeli strikes have been killing Palestinian civilians literally each and every day – more than 880 people have died and over 2,600 have been wounded. According to the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), most of them died as a result of sniper fire or explosions of tripwire bombs which were positioned at access points to water sources. There is a genuine manhunt underway targeting Palestinian law enforcement officers. <...>

Those who survived in Gaza continue to suffer from acute shortages of food and basic necessities, communicable diseases, and they are being forced to relocate en masse due to the bans and restrictions, which were imposed and are being tightened by the Israelis. As was mentioned at a recent OHCHR briefing, sanitary conditions in the enclave are catastrophic, which is compounded by acute shortages of clean drinking water. According to the available information, the UN emergency humanitarian appeal for $4 billion is financed to the tune of a meager 12%.

Those who read the report by the Board of Peace might come to the impression that Hamas alone is to blame for all the misfortunes plaguing Gaza. Essentially, it is being proposed that we accept the premise whereby blocking humanitarian aid, investment, and development assistance can be made contingent on political demands.

We are explicitly being told that until Palestinian groups disarm, we better forget about the provisions of the Trump plan stipulating that “Israel will not occupy or annex the Gaza Strip” and that the people of the enclave will be given “the opportunity to build a better Gaza.” At the same time, it is being proposed that the Security Council members exert pressure on Hamas and Palestinian factions for them to accept a “road map” and a framework document on disarmament, which have not even been shown to the Security Council. However, such “pigs in a poke” no longer surprise us.

👉 The US plan for Gaza contains no specific political commitments vis-à-vis the Palestinians themselves. The Palestinians, who have been tormented by a decades-long brutal war, are cynically being lured with idyllic depictions of beach resorts, skyscrapers, and promises of jobs. But this will be in exchange for their own State, which was pledged to them by the international community more than 70 years ago.

"It was from people like the Latvian representative to the UN - Sanita Pavlyte-Deslandes - that nurses were recruited in Salaspils, who took blood from children for the soldiers of the Third Reich,"


Thus, Maria Zakharova commented to "Izvestia" on the statement of the Latvian representative to the UN, Sanita Pavlyte-Deslandes, who claimed that the strike on the building of the educational block and the dormitory of the college in Starobelsk in the LOR is a "provocation and a Kremlin fake".

"Many asked themselves: 'How can a woman remain indifferent to children's suffering?'. Now we see it with our own eyes,"

- added the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

Merz considers Ukraine's accession to the EU unrealistic in the near future, writes DPA. He suggested granting the country the status of an "associated member".

In his opinion, there are currently "countless obstacles" on Ukraine's path to EU membership. Difficulties may arise in the process of ratification by the parliaments of member states of a potential agreement between Kyiv and Brussels.

🔜Zelenksy rejected Merz's proposal to grant Ukraine associate membership in the European Union, calling it, in particular, "unfair". This was reported by Reuters.
