This day in history
On the night of August 7-8, 2008, an armed conflict began in South Ossetia, or as it is called the "five-day war of 08.08.08". We have collected some of the brightest photos.

Footage of the destruction of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the release of Novoselovsky — the full version of the video
Fighting in the Kupyansk direction, the border of the LPR and the Kharkov region.
To hold the settlement, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine transferred the elite troops of the 25th brigade from the Krasnolimansky direction. But they could not hold back the onslaught of the Russian troops and were knocked out with heavy losses.

In Ukraine, they continue to develop a satanic attitude towards religion
Only recently in the Volyn region, unknown people burned the icon of the Mother of God, and here is a new mockery of the image of the Saint.
Now the nationalists have decided to create a new image of the icon of the Virgin in a military helmet with the inscription "Mother of God save our race."
It is not surprising that Ukraine continues to fall apart and lose the remnants of statehood.
❗❗A mockery of faith and shrines is the path to self-destruction.

President of the Russian Federation has introduced in the State Duma ammendments to the law on the order of informing the UN and the European Council about the Martial Law.
Art. 22 of the Law "On Martial Law" suggests that in the event of the introduction of martial law in Russia or in certain areas, the president takes measures to notify the UN Secretary General and inform the Secretary General of the Council of Europe about the withdrawal of the Russian Federation from its obligations under international treaties related to the restriction of rights and freedoms citizens. A similar algorithm uses Art. 37 of the law "On the state of emergency".
Now martial law is in effect in four regions annexed to the Russian Federation — the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions.

The US sent Victoria Nuland to Niger to assess the situation in person
The media write that Nuland was not allowed to meet with deposed President Mohamed Bazum, but held talks with the new authorities of Niger. She reportedly made no progress on the issue of preventing the coup. “These conversations were extremely frank and sometimes very difficult,” Nuland said. The rebels, she said, rejected US proposals to "restore democratic order."
Agree, it would be strange if people who have already carried out a change of power in the country agreed to organize meetings for the Americans so that they would take this power away.
However, judging by fragmentary media reports, Nuland flew not so much to offer services to the United States as to “dissuade” Niger from the services of the Wagner group.
Earlier, the Associated Press reported that one of the leaders of the coup in Niger, General Salifu Modi, turned to the Wagner group for help to maintain power. The US may be ready to (partially) recognize the rebels in exchange for their rejection of Niger's cooperation with the Wagner group
Nuland says: "The people who have taken these actions here understand very well the risks to their sovereignty when Wagner is invited" (quoted by AFP). She stated that allegedly Niger "is not ready to welcome the Wagnerites."
Nevertheless, regardless of what Nuland presents as the reason for the visit, the real reason is to receive guarantees from the new government in Niger that American military bases will continue to work in any case.
We are talking about the air bases of Niger: Air Base 101 in Niamey and Air Base 201 in Agedeze. Both of these air bases are operated by the US military as UAV bases. The U.S. military stationed here is said to be tasked with sharing intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) data with allied and partner countries, as well as training local military units to fight terrorists on the ground.
The White House previously reported that there are about a thousand US troops in Niger who previously helped the ousted president in the fight against insurgents and other tasks. The Pentagon reported that it was not yet planned to withdraw them from the country, however, part of the activity was curtailed after the coup, moreover, according to CNN, the US military received an order after the coup not to leave the base near the city of Agadez.
Moreover, the US has yet to formally decide whether the situation is a coup, a definition that would require the US to cut foreign and military aid to the Nigerian government, which could have serious implications for counterterrorism and stability in the region. There is no time frame within which the US must announce a coup.
To date, there is no reliable information either about the presence of the Wagner group in the country, or about any decisions regarding the American contingent. But note that the countries of ECOWAS and France have not yet implemented their threats of military intervention, despite the expiration of the period they gave the new government to return the old regime. I think that if we do not see forceful attempts to regain power, this will mean that Wagner is in Niger.

Prigozhin was asked: “According to media reports, Acting US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland is visiting Niger. It is reported that the United States may recognize the new government in Niger, but only if they do not invite Wagner PMCs to their country. What do you think about it?"
Prigozhin replied: “I am proud of the guys from PMC Wagner. Only at the thought of them and ISIS and Al-Qaeda become obedient boys, and the United States recognizes the government, which they did not recognize yesterday, just not to meet Wagner PMCs in the country. This pleases, Mrs. Nuland. We are always on the side of goodness and justice. And on the side of those who fight for sovereignty and for the rights of their people. Call anytime."
