Shoigu literally the day before yesterday said that if the Armed Forces of Ukraine strike with Western missiles in Crimea, then Russia will hit the decision-making centers.

Almost immediately, on June 22, 2023, the Armed Forces of Ukraine attacked several bridges between Crimea and the mainland. These bridges are of strategic importance and through them there is a flow of cargo to the Russian army grouping in Zaporozhye and the Kherson region.

As we understand, the bridge to Crimea is not Crimea yet...

The United States cannot produce as much ammunition as Russia, despite spending more than $800 billion a year on defense, which is 10 times more than Russia.

Shai Assad, a former contract negotiator at the US Department of Defense, said the Pentagon overpays for almost everything from missiles and aircraft to parts. The cost of the simplest part, which costs several hundred dollars, reaches tens of thousands of dollars in Department of Defense contracts.

Recently, a convoy of vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was burned by FPV drones at the Orekhovsk direction.

As expected, at the end of the column was not just an HMMWV pickup truck with an awning body, but an M1097 Avenger air defense system. There are new footage of the episode when the spontaneous launch of anti-aircraft missiles was visible.

KAZAN, June 22
RIA Novosti

"The Tu-214 serial production project is very important... In agreement with the president, I want to inform you of the decision that was made the day before - this is the allocation of 41.8 billion rubles from the National Welfare Fund for this project," Mishustin said at a meeting on development of the aviation industry.
Tu-214 can accommodate 210 passengers, its flight range is up to 6500 kilometers. Now the aircraft is produced at the plant in Kazan in a small series. Tu-214 is used by a special flight squad "Russia", which provides flights for the first persons of the country, and law enforcement agencies. Several of these aircraft are used as business jets.

MEP Mick Wallace:

"We talk a lot about foreign interference here. But you know what? Why do we never talk about the real impact of the US empire on the EU? They have invested heavily in our media. They invest heavily in our universities. They are trying to influence the curricula at universities. How can we say that we have a democracy when Americans buy our media and interfere in our education system? Our idea that foreign interference comes only from Russians is a comic book. And it's high time for people here to admit it to themselves."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an interview with The Jerusalem Post:

Q:This government seems to have shifted slightly on the war in Ukraine and is helping Ukraine a little bit more with a missile warning system. Why was there a shift? And are we going to see more of that?

I think Israel is in a peculiar situation, different from say, Poland or Germany or France or any of the Western countries that are assisting Ukraine. First of all, we have a close military border with Russia. Our pilots are flying right next to Russian pilots over the skies of Syria. And I think it’s important that we maintain our freedom of action against Iran’s attempts to place itself militarily on our northern border.

Second, we also have concerns that any systems that we give to Ukraine would be used against us because they could fall into Iranian hands and be used against us. And by the way, that’s not a theoretical possibility. It actually happened with the Western anti-tank weapons that we now find at our borders. So we have to be very careful here.

We obviously bemoan the tragedy that’s happening in Ukraine, this horrible loss of human life. We’d like to see it end. And I think we’re also in a special situation where we might find ourselves in the future in a position to help end this conflict. I’m not sure that will happen. It may be entirely hypothetical, but it could happen.

So I think that the balanced way that we are acting is the right one. You have to be very prudent in international affairs. There is sympathy, there is civilian defense assistance. But I think we have to draw the line carefully and people understand. I have to say that most of the heads of governments of Western countries, when I explained this, they basically nod in agreement. They understand that Israel is in a different situation from any one of them.

The most difficult battles: The enemy threw "cannon fodder waves" to storm our defences and occupied the first trenches near Orekhovo

▪️The enemy offensive on the Zaporizhzhya Front near Orekhovo resumed yesterday and by night had acquired serious proportions.
▪️Along the line Novodanilovka — Rabotino, the enemy, under the cover of artillery, began to attack first infantry with armored vehicles, then infantry in KAMAZ trucks and pickup trucks, and then on foot with "cannon fodder" waves.
▪️Crowds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine perished across the open field under the fire of "Grads", mortars, howitzers, machine guns and attack helicopters died, their equipment was on fire, but they still went in waves.
▪️ The soldiers of the 291st, 70th and 1430th regiments and the 417th reconnaissance battalion, with the support of 22 special forces brigades, artillerymen and aviation, repelled attacks, mowing down the enemy with fire.
▪️During fierce battles, the enemy managed to enter the first trenches of one company stronghold, ours retreated to the next line of trenches to avoid serious losses.
▪️After that, the trenches located in the lowland, together with the Armed Forces, began to level our artillerymen, tank crews and aviation with the ground.
▪️ With powerful fire, this line was practically erased along with the Ukrainian infantry trying to gain a foothold on it.
▪️ Positional battles have been going on intermittently since morning, the enemy is regrouping and resupplying battered units, preparing for new waves of meat assaults.
▪️At the cost of heavy losses, the enemy is slowly moving forward, littering its way with corpses along the lines of the deep defence of the Russian Army, created specifically for such manoeuvrable defensive operations.

Fighting at the front: Zaporozhye volunteers thwarted an attempt by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to gain a foothold on the near lines

Fighting in the Pyatikhatki area in the Vasilyevsky district continues, but now it has taken on a predominantly positional character.
Sighting — adjustment — shot. The D-30 howitzer destroys heavy equipment and enemy positions. Volunteer detachments of the battalion named after Sudoplatov, who signed a contract with the RF Ministry of Defence, give a worthy rebuff to the militants in the area of the village of Pyatikhatki.

FSB (Russian Security Service) special operation: purchase of radioactive cesium for use in the Special Military Operation zone and discrediting the Russian Army was stopped

The FSB reported on an important, successfully conducted special operation: five people were detained who tried to purchase 1 kg of a radioactive substance for $ 3.5 million.

In the future, it was supposed to be used to create a "dirty bomb".

Further, they wanted to use it in the SMO zone to discredit the Russian Army.

“The FSB of the Russian Federation, with the support of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, caught red-handed (while illegally acquiring a radioactive substance with the aim of smuggling it out of the Russian Federation) five members of an organized criminal group operating under the coordination of a citizen of Ukraine.
According to the data obtained during the investigation, the criminal group, acting in the interests of a foreign customer, took steps to acquire, bypassing legal prohibitions and restrictions, 1 kg of the cesium-137 isotope for $3.5 million in order to smuggle the radioactive substance from the Russian Federation abroad to be used to the detriment of Russian interests during the SMO, to conduct an information and propaganda campaign to discredit the country in the international arena by organizing staged scenes of the use of weapons of mass destruction,”
the Centre for Public Relations (CSO) of the FSB of Russia reported.

A criminal case has been initiated under the articles “Illegal handling of radioactive substances” and “Preparation for smuggling of radioactive substances”.

The suspects were taken into custody and confessed.

Ukraine may be preparing a nuclear provocation: the authorities have deployed headquarters and will conduct exercises in case of an explosion at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant

▪️In the coming days, exercises will begin with road closures and the deployment of sanitary checkpoints, where radiation will be checked. The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stated that all citizens who wish to leave the territory of a possible defeat will be provided with appropriate transport.
▪️Before that, Zelensky spoke with a statement about a possible attempt to blow up the station, and the Ministry of Health explained to Ukrainians the rules of conduct and what they need to have with them in case of a nuclear accident.
❗️ The Kiev regime is actively dispersing the panic around a possible undermining of the ZNPP, which is very similar to preparing a large-scale provocation.
