Officially, 56,017 refugees and migrants died or went missing between 2014 and 2023 in and around the Mediterranean.

The real numbers could be 10 times higher.

The end of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra: in the morning those buildings where the monks still remained were captured

On the morning of July 6, the policemen of the Kiev regime broke down the locks and seized the buildings of the Lavra, in which the monks of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church still remained.

Believers who came to protect the shrine are dispersed, even the “yellow-blue” flag does not save. Recall that earlier Belarus declared its readiness to host the expelled monks of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra.

The question remains open with the relics of Orthodox saints stored in caves under the monastery. The Kiev regime has repeatedly stated that they must be removed.

The Kiev regime intends to take the Christian values of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra (including the holy relics) to Europe, the Ukrainian authorities have already reached an agreement with UNESCO.

This is stated in a statement by the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) of Russia, Sergei Naryshkin.

“According to the SVR, an agreement was reached between the Kiev authorities and representatives of UNESCO on the removal of Christian valuables, including holy relics, from the territory of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, and their subsequent transfer to the museums of Italy, France, Germany and the Vatican under the pretext of “rescuing from Russian missile strikes“, the SVR press office said in a statement.

An inventory of church property has already been made, funds have been allocated for the transportation of goods to Europe, and specialized vehicles equipped with refrigeration units have been prepared.

For Russia, the defence of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra has a deep spiritual dimension, which means that the determination to bring the NMD to the end becomes only stronger under the current conditions, stressed in the Foreign Intelligence Service.

The timing of the start of the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was delayed due to the delay in the supply of Western weapons, — Zelensky

“I am grateful to the United States as the leader of our support, however, I told them, as well as the heads of European states, that we would like to launch a counteroffensive earlier, and for this we need weapons and other materials ... The Russian army had more time to mine vast territories and create defensive lines," he said.

Russia expels nine Finnish diplomats and closes consulate general in St. Petersburg

The Russian Foreign Ministry said: "A strong protest has been made to the head of the Finnish diplomatic mission in connection with the confrontational anti-Russian policy pursued by the Finnish authorities."

It was noted that the currently discussed parameters of Finland's entry into NATO pose a threat to the security of the Russian Federation, and encouraging the Kyiv regime to go to war and pumping it with Western weapons means clearly hostile actions against our country. This line of the Finnish authorities cannot remain unanswered.

In connection with the expulsion last month from Finland of nine representatives of Russian foreign missions, nine employees of the Finnish Embassy in the Russian Federation and the Finnish Consulate General in St. Petersburg were declared “persona non grata” in that country.

As part of the response to the confrontational actions of the Finnish authorities, the Russian side decided to withdraw from October 1 its consent to the activities of the Consulate General of Finland in St. Petersburg.

TV presenter: After becoming president, what will you do with China, which is currently negotiating with Havana to open a military training base in Cuba?

Democratic Presidential candidate Marianne Williamson: Do you know how many of our military bases are located around China? Three hundred and thirteen. It's time for Americans to wake up. The real world is different. We have about 750 active military bases in 80 countries. And now they say to us: "As you are with us, so are we with you." That's how it is now. And that's what China is trying to tell us. I personally would not like to see Chinese bases in Cuba, but I understand it well... and I think Anthony Blinken and President Biden also understand it well… That the days when we could order everyone around are over."

It seems that this woman will not be allowed before the elections. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Another exchange of prisoners of war

Today, representatives of Russia and Ukraine carried out another exchange of prisoners of war in the border area, this time according to the formula "45 to 45".

The Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation reported that all the released were provided with the necessary medical and psychological assistance, and later they would be delivered to the medical institutions of the department.

Ukraine was issued 41 privates and sergeants, two officers, one employee of the "Territorial Defence" and a certain employee of "Azovstal". Most of them surrendered last spring in Mariupol, as well as in the Kharkov, Bakhmut and Zaporozhye directions.

The previous exchange took place almost a month ago, on June 11: then 94 Russian servicemen returned to their homeland, and 95 members of Ukrainian formations departed in the opposite direction.

Now you can take a breath. Two-day operation to evacuate captured Storm Shadow successfully completed — Rogozin

The missile has just been handed over to one of our defence enterprises, whose specialists will "decipher" the control system algorithms of this dangerous missile weapon and share them with air defence experts.

I thank the fighters of the BARS-11 volunteer detachment and the command of the "Tsar's Wolves" unit in the Zaporozhye region, personally Colonel Artur Batsev (call sign "Pyton") for their courage. Our guys had to get the Storm Shadow materiel from the "grey zone" of the line of contact under shelling. The enemy tried to prevent us from capturing such a trophy and delivering it to the "mainland" by sending his reconnaissance group to intercept, but the guys coped with the task and just reported to me the result. Well done!

I hope that the "trepanation" of the control system of this missile will allow specialists of the Russian military-industrial complex to quickly find an antidote for our air defence and pacify the British-French storm.

Good hunting and an excellent trophy for the "Tsar's Wolves"!

On US involvement in the Ukrainian conflict

In connection with the numerous facts of the direct participation of US citizens, including retired and active military personnel, in hostilities as part of formations subordinate to the regime in Kiev, on September 15, 2022 and February 21, 2023, demarches were made to the US Embassy in Moscow with the transfer of notes of protest.

Translated from Russian Foreign Affairs Ministry:
05.07.2023 18:11
(Why the fuck they haven't translated it themselves and posted on every lamppost? Fuck knows what those Russians are doing. May be they want to keep it secret and to start WW3? So why I have to do it?)

The Russian side stated that the weapons supplied to the Ukrainian authorities and the personnel serving them are considered as legitimate targets to be destroyed. It was also emphasized that in order to avoid negative consequences, the United States should take real steps to immediately withdraw its military personnel, stop supplying weapons and providing real-time coordinates to units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to strike at the locations of the Russian Armed Forces, as well as civilians.

It has been made very clear to the American side that such actions, complicit in massive war crimes committed by Ukrainian forces, are supported by objective evidence that refutes the standard arrogant explanations at the official level. In a note from the US Embassy in Moscow dated March 6, 2023, in particular, the constantly replicated thesis is reproduced that “the United States does not use military force against Russia, does not use weapons against Russian forces, does not lead or control Ukrainian forces, and does not engage in military clashes with Russian forces. All American personnel stationed in Ukraine provide for the operation of the US Embassy in Kiev.”

Based on the array of data at the disposal of the Russian side and in the public domain, we can conclude that the United States is purposeful in unleashing a war "by proxy" and American participation as a de facto party to the conflict in order to solve the key task of inflicting a "strategic defeat" on Russia. As part of this “division of labor”, the neo-Nazi regime in Kiev regularly supplies “cannon fodder” in exchange for unprecedented financial injections, some of which end up in the pockets of V. Zelensky and his entourage, the supply of military equipment and weapons, including high-tech ones (instead of the destroyed arsenals and the disabled Ukrainian military-industrial complex itself), the transfer by the Pentagon and NATO structures of the entire spectrum of intelligence, direct command and planning of the operations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine by NATO.

US officials, while denying, despite the obvious, that the US military is involved in hostilities, make no secret of their intentions to “support Ukraine for as long as it takes.” At the same time, the “clients” are set up to fight “until the last Ukrainian”, and in the public space, representatives of the George Biden administration justify strikes on Russian territory.

In particular, U.S. Senior Deputy Secretary of State Walter Nuland, speaking at the Carnegie Endowment on February 16, 2023, emphasized that “in the occupied Crimea” there are large objects of the Russian Armed Forces, which, they say, are “legitimate purposes”. They are defeated, and "we support it." In turn, Assistant to the President of the United States for National Security J. Sullivan, in an interview with CNN on May 12, 2023, stated that "the United States did not impose restrictions on the use of American weapons by Ukraine to strike at Crimea."

In order to increase military supplies to the regime in Kiev in the conditions of high intensity of hostilities and coordination with the allies in terms of transferred weapons, a new structure was formed in the Pentagon — the Joint Production Acceleration Cell (JPAC).
