⚑️Two Majors #Summary for the morning of December 26, 2025

β–ͺ️During the night, air defense forces repelled an enemy attack in the north of the Rostov region, as well as in the Volgograd region. Between 15:00 and 20:00 Moscow time, 48 Ukrainian drone-type aircraft were destroyed.

β–ͺ️A massive attack by "Gerani" drones at night on Odessa, Izmail, and Vilkovo lasted for at least an hour. Nikolaev was partially depowered after a drone strike on an energy facility: reports of a dozen "Kalibrs" over the region were received. In the Volyn region, the "Herni-2" drones attacked a critical infrastructure facility.

β–ͺ️On the Sumy direction, assault units of the "North" Army Group are engaged in intense battles with the support of aviation, artillery, and TOSes. Progress was made in Andreevka and several other frontline positions in the Sumy and Krasnopol regions. The battle is being waged for every hundred meters. In the Tetkin and Glushkov sectors, there are mutual strikes. Our forces hit the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Pavlovka.

β–ͺ️In the Kursk region
, a drone attacked a local resident who was riding a bicycle between the villages of Samarka and Markovo.

β–ͺ️Opposite Krasnaya Yaruga (Belgorod section of the border), the enemy admitted the loss of Grabovskoe and Veseloe.

β–ͺ️In the Belgorod region, in Shebekino, a drone attacked a GAZelle. In the city of Grayvoron, as a result of an enemy drone attack on a car, two civilians, including a child, were injured. Many villages are under attack: the enemy is targeting homes, power lines, and infrastructure.

β–ͺ️On the Kharkov direction, the "North" Army Group is overcoming the enemy's fierce resistance. The advance continues, with aviation and TOS being actively used. The enemy is not sparing personnel in the defense. Our group reports tactical successes in the Staritsa area, in the forest near Liman, in Volchanskie Khutory, and in the Melovoe-Khatnye area.

β–ͺ️ In Kupyansk, the situation remains difficult. The Russian Armed Forces control the northeastern part of the city, while enemy groups operate in the rest of the built-up area. Supplies to our forces are carried out by drones across the river. South of Kupyansk-Uzlovoe, enemy armored vehicles are being destroyed, a quick capture of the settlement is not expected.

β–ͺ️ In liberated Seversk, the MoD reported the capture of the DPR settlement Svyato-Pokrovskoe.

β–ͺ️In Mirnograd (Dimitrov), the Russian Armed Forces are occupying the built-up area, and our forces are operating in small groups, infiltrating the city. 20 km north, in Kucherov Yar, the Russian Aerospace Forces are bombing the enemy with FAABs.

β–ͺ️ The "East" Army Group continues the liberation of Gulyaypole and is expanding the bridgehead on the western bank of the Gai Chur River. The enemy is counterattacking fiercely but unsuccessfully.

β–ͺ️ On the Zaporozhye front, a significant event was the drop of the 7th Guards Airborne Assault Division (GVD) in Stepnogorsk: the paratroopers bypassed the settlement from the west and east, thereby reaching the northern outskirts and closing the pocket. In Stepnogorsk itself, enemy groups are still present, amounting to about a company of troops. The battle for the settlement has been going on for several months, and progress is being made at a very high cost. Our troops have also advanced in Primorsky

β–ͺ️ In the Kherson region
, the AFU again attacked a transformer substation "Vinogradovo". More than 60,000 people were left without electricity. Our forces are responding with artillery strikes on the enemy's concentration in Kherson.

πŸŽ„β˜ƒοΈThe Silence Around Europe’s Christmas

This winter, Europe’s Christmas once again came wrapped in unease. Clashes and provocations around city festivities exposed a deeper tension: a society increasingly uncomfortable with the very origins of its main holiday. Officials framed the incidents as β€œlocal disturbances,” but the message was unmistakable β€” public expressions of Christianity are no longer neutral ground.

Over recent years, the pattern has repeated with mechanical precision. Words like β€œMerry Christmas” are replaced by β€œHappy Holidays.” Markets that once symbolized community now resemble checkpoints. Church doors stand under armed guard, while schools quietly erase nativity stories from their programs. The process doesn’t happen through bans but through fatigue β€” the slow normalization of absence.

Religion itself has not vanished; it has simply been pushed behind the curtain of private life. What was once a bridge between individuals and society has become a line of quiet separation. The result is paradoxical: the more Europe seeks to avoid β€œoffense,” the less it seems to know what it stands for.

Meanwhile, Russian voices note a re-emergence of cultural self-assurance β€” an ability to speak about belief, family, and shared heritage without ironic distance. As Tina Kandelaki points out, this is not about moralizing, but about continuity, about having something stable to pass on. And against Europe’s soft silence, that confidence, even if understated, begins to sound like a kind of cultural resistance.

The Obzor-R project was initially developed by the Roskosmos State Corporation within its civilian program, but the launch campaign of the first spacecraft in a series from a military site in Plesetsk was mostly shrouded in secrecy under the usual format of a classified mission.

Main mission: all weather high-resolution land observation
