📹 Russian Army continues aid to regions hit by Ukraine’s attack on Kakhovka dam
Russian service members from the Dnepr detachment were among the first who came to the rescue of residents in the Kherson Region after Ukrainian forces destroyed the Kakhovka dam and flooded the surrounding area. At present, Russia’s radiation, chemical and biological protection troops have begun disinfecting infrastructure facilities affected by the post-attack flooding.
Disinfection is carried out using special ARS-14KM vehicle dispensing stations using sanitizing agents that have demonstrated a high efficiency in preventing outbreaks of infections.
Earlier this week, Russia’s health care and consumer rights watchdog said that the situation with infectious diseases in the Kherson Region remains stable, and the authorities are taking measures to minimize potential risks after the flooding.

🕯 June 22 marks the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow in Russia.
82 years ago, at 4 am, Nazi Germany perfidiously attacked the Soviet Union after a lengthy artillery barrage and without a declaration of war. Nazi forces launched attacks along the entire length of the Soviet border, from the Barents to the Black Sea.
This is how the Great Patriotic War began, opening one of the most tragic chapters in the history of our country.
Romania and Italy sided with Germany. Slovakia, Finland and Hungary joined them in several days later. The aggressors controlled the industrial potential and other resources of virtually all the continental European countries.
The bloodiest war in history lasted 1,418 days and nights and culminated in the Victory of the Soviet Union and its allies, and it entailed the complete defeat of Axis countries.
❗️ The Soviet Union accounted for 40 percent of wartime losses. Its casualties totalled 26.6 million war dead, including over 8.7 million killed in action. The Nazis deliberately exterminated 7.42 million people on the occupied territories.
#WeRemember how, after living through the war and despite certain disagreements, the nations of the world were united by a striving to prevent another monstrous conflict in the future and to avoid the mistakes of the past.
Unfortunately, Nazi ideology has proved resilient over the decades. They are using Nazi ideology once again for monstrous geopolitical experiments aimed at containing Russia. Collaborators who found refuge in the West after the war, Nazi criminals and their young followers are brandishing the banner of these ideas today.
🕯 The Candle of Remembrance memorial event has been held every June 22 since 2009. Everyone can honour the memory of the deceased with a moment of silence, light a candle and lay flowers at a military burial site or a Great Patriotic War monument.

📅 #OTD in 1944, Soviet forces launched Operation Bagration, one of the largest and most successful military operations in history. In two months, they liberated the Belarusian SSR, part of the Lithuanian and Latvian SSRs and eastern Poland.
🔻 By the summer of 1944, the Red Army had succeeded in pushing German forces back from Leningrad, liberating Crimea and Ukraine and reaching the border with Romania. However, enemy forces continued to occupy the territory of Belarus. A salient controlled by the Wehrmacht’s Army Group Centre was established there. During the three-year occupation, Nazi troops had burned hundreds of local communities and killed over 2 million prisoners of war and civilians.
🔻 The Soviet forces simultaneously breached the defensive positions of the Wehrmacht’s Army Group Centre in six sectors, encircled and defeated the Vitebsk and Bobruisk formations, as well as the Orsha and Mogilyov formations. They launched several powerful strikes towards Minsk, entered Poland and approached the borders of East Prussia.
🔻 As a result of this operation, Soviet forces routed the Army Group Centre, one of the most powerful enemy formations. They crossed three large rivers, the Berezina, the Niemen and the Vistula, and seized vital bridgeheads on their western banks. They liberated Belarus, part of the Baltic republics, eastern Poland and opened the road to Berlin. The front was pushed back 550 to 600 km to the west.
🎖 Soviet soldiers displayed mass heroism and impressive fighting prowess, while liberating Belarus. Over 1,500 members of various Soviet ethnicities were made Heroes of the Soviet Union.

❗️रूस में वैगनर पीएमसी की बगावत के बीच रूसी राष्ट्रपति पुतिन ने राष्ट्र को संबोधित किया
व्लादिमीर पुतिन ने राष्ट्र के नाम संबोधन में रूस के नागरिकों, सेना, सुरक्षा एजेंसियों और उन लोगों को संबोधित किया जिन्हें धोखे और धमकियों से सशस्त्र विद्रोह के रास्ते पर धकेल दिया गया है। उनके संबोधन के प्रमुख अंश:
📍रूसी अधिकारी रूस में दोबारा विभाजन नहीं होने देंगे, हम आंतरिक देशद्रोह से अपने देश की रक्षा करेंगे
📍सभी सैन्य कमांडरों से बात की है और सेना बहादुरी से लड़ रही है
📍विशेष सैन्य अभियान के दौरान किसी भी तरह के विवाद और कलह को किनारे रख देना चाहिए
📍अत्यधिक महत्वाकांक्षाओं के कारण रूस में यह विरोध पैदा हो रहा है
📍विद्रोह के प्रयास के लिए जिम्मेदार सभी लोगों को निश्चित रूप से सजा का सामना करना पड़ेगा, कानून और लोगों को जवाब देना होगा

⚡️ President of Russia Vladimir Putin's address to citizens of Russia
Excerpts
• Today, Russia is waging a tough struggle for its future, repelling the aggression of neo-Nazis and their patrons. The entire military, economic and informational machine of the West is directed against us. We are fighting for the lives and security of our people, for our sovereignty and independence, for the right to be and remain Russia, a state with a thousand-year history.
• This battle, when the fate of our nation is being decided, requires consolidation of all forces. It requires unity, consolidation and a sense of responsibility, and everything that weakens us, any strife that our external enemies can use and do so to subvert us from within, must be discarded.
• What we are facing is essentially a betrayal. Inflated ambitions and personal interests have led to treason – treason against our country, our people and the common cause which Wagner Group soldiers and commanders were fighting and dying for shoulder to shoulder, together with our other units and troops.
• Any internal revolt is a deadly threat to our statehood and our nation. It is a blow to Russia, to our people. Our actions to defend the Fatherland from this threat will be harsh. All those who have consciously chosen the path of betrayal, planned an armed mutiny and taken the path of blackmail and terrorism, will inevitably be punished and will answer before the law and our people.
• Those who staged the mutiny and took up arms against their comrades – they have betrayed Russia and will be brought to account. I urge those who are being dragged into this crime not to make a fatal and tragic mistake but make the only right choice: to stop taking part in criminal actions.

⚡️ Foreign Ministry statement on the current political situation in the country
💬 The attempted armed mutiny in our country is resolutely rejected by Russian society, which strongly supports President of Russia Vladimir Putin. Reckless aspirations of the conspirators are essentially aimed at destabilising the situation in Russia, destroying our unity, and undermining the efforts of the Russian Federation to reliably ensure international security. Therefore, the mutiny plays into the hands of Russia's external enemies.
We warn Western countries against undertaking even the slightest attempts to use the domestic Russian situation to achieve their Russophobic goals. Such attempts would be futile and will find no resonance either in Russia or among reasonable political forces abroad. We firmly believe that in the near future the situation will find a solution worthy of the age-old wisdom of the Russian people and the Russian State.
All the goals and objectives of the special military operation will be achieved.
☝️ Our country will continue on its sovereign course to ensure its security, defend its values, strengthen its authority in the international arena, and establish a just multipolar world order.
We highly value the understanding of this principled position by our allies and foreign partners, which we are fully aware of already now.

#Ukraine
It has been reported that the lion’s share of European and American humanitarian aid for the people of Ukraine is appropriated by Kiev officials who are famously steeped in corruption.
They invent ever more grey schemes to take over (actually, steal) humanitarian aid. Up to a third of this cargo vanishes on the way to its addressees.
#NATO
Air Defender 23 exercise, now underway in German airspace. This is the largest exercise involving NATO air forces since the alliance’s inception. Its scale implies that Washington and its allies are drafting operational plans for engaging an adversary with a comparable potential.
In these conditions, we would like to note once again that any attempts to threaten the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the Russian Federation will inevitably result in repercussions for their organisers.
#Kosovo
The situation in the southern Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija is steadily deteriorating. The self-proclaimed authorities led by “prime minister” Albin Kurti are openly moving towards an armed conflict.
The United States and the EU continue to turn a blind eye to “prime minister” Albin Kurti’s disruptive actions and intentionally lead the settlement process to an impasse, forcing Serbs to give up their vital interests.
