Good luck UK...you are really going to need it...

🇬🇧Liz Truss thanked Boris Johnson for his work, Brexit and the fight against Vladimir Putin

It is highly likely that she will finish off Britain.

Stop shelling the Zaporozhye NPP

Video from Gazprom with an epic and topical soundtrack "And the winter is nigh. The winter is big". Very atmospheric.

Russian channels are often very sceptical about the data provided even by the Russian MOD. They claim, that the attacks of the landing groups of Ukrainian Special Operation forces on the Zaporojie NPP are not proven by the video and photo materials. Here is a video from the shores of the reservoir, where the attackers were met and ambushed.
We at #TransFormator also think, that Russian MOD could have made a better job of the presenting the results of the operation. However, the very fact of it happening does not cause any doubts. Certainly, there may be some exaggeration - its a war... But the lack of photo and video materials is only proving that the Russian Army has a good level of discipline and an order banning any mobile phones and other gadgets among the soldiers and officers is complied with.

You remember the situation on that direction of Ukrainian counteroffensive.
Now it has developed in accordance with the rules of military Science. Rybar reports:
The battle for Kherson: the situation on the Andreevsky site as of 20.00 September 5.

Tonight, the Armed Forces of Ukraine plan to once again expand the bridgehead on the Andreevsky sector of the front and force the infantry to drive the RF Armed Forces out of Belogorka, Kostromka, Bruskinsky and Karlo-Marksovsky.

A pontoon-bridge park on KrAZ-255 with river links was transferred through Bereznegovatoe to repair and build new crossings across the Ingulets River.
Infantry in civilian trucks and buses continue to be transferred to the Bereznegovatoye station.

Despite the active fire defeat of the entire triangle of Blagodatovka - Andreevka - Lozovoye - Sukhoi Stavok, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine does not deviate from the plan for a suicidal rush to Novaya Kakhovka.

The line of the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to advance in the direction of Kherson.

They were discovered by the night vision reconnaissance complex, followed by an artillery strike. The enemy is destroyed.

Donetsk Militia is bombing Ukrainian servicemen from a copter.

Liz Truss. Well, even if she hadn't sanctioned me personally, i'd say this about her. She's an immoral, incompetent imbecile.

To paraphrase Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse, it's going to get a lot worse, before it gets better.... so have a stiff drink, my dear British countrymen, there is serious trouble ahead.

⬆️⬆️⬆️ Well, that is a post from British journalist, who was sanctioned by the British government without a court decision. That really has happened in the "cradle of democracy". Graham Philips was writing about the situation and the people of Donbas since 2015. Somebody in London did not like his point of view. His accounts were blocked, his return to UK made practically impossible. Only one British journalist dared to write in his support. That journalist is Peter Hitchens. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

A persecution we'd condemn in Russia

When the Government was considering its spiteful, despotic plan to persecute video blogger Graham Phillips, officials plainly advised Ministers that the action would interfere with his human rights – rights which the Government ceaselessly claims to defend.

Yet they went ahead. Mr Phillips publishes blogs which defy the largely accepted view about Ukraine. As a result, he has been subjected to severe and damaging sanctions, without any hearing.

In an internal memo seen by me, a civil servant points out ‘the proposed imposition of an asset freeze would have a considerable impact on his ability to withdraw funds and access essential personal services in the UK’. They say this will interfere with his Human Rights, ‘including his rights under Article 8 (family life/private life) and Article 1 of Protocol 1 (property rights)’.

It then states ‘there may also be interference with his Article 10 rights to freedom of expression’. I’ll say.

It fails to mention that the sanctions rip up his most basic freedoms under Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights, which forbid punishment without a fair trial before an impartial jury.

I have now seen some of the Government’s ‘case’ against Mr Phillips, much of which consists of cuttings from The Guardian and The Times. It contains allegations which Mr Phillips would have strongly denied if he had been able to do so in court.

He has been punished without trial for expressing views which the state does not like. Isn’t this the sort of thing we condemn in Russia?

God bless the free speech campaigner Toby Young who has spoken out against this unBritish abuse. But where are the other voices?

Russia will proceed with its plan to stop oil supplies to those countries that support limiting the cost of this fuel from the Russian Federation, after these measures are introduced, said the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov. Problems with gas supplies via Nord Stream will remain until sanctions are lifted that impede the maintenance of pipeline units - Kremlin.

Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Khusnullin said that about 100,000 square meters for 15,000 people would be built in Mariupol by the end of the year.

There are also plans to restore about 1,300 apartment buildings and about 14,200 individual housing construction by the end of this year.

"In the Donbass, it remains a priority for us to provide people with housing.

Moreover, we are not only restoring the old, but also building new housing," Khusnullin wrote.

Chancellor Scholz promotes militarisation of Europe under German leadership in Prague speech

In the coming weeks and months, Ukraine will receive from Germany “new, state-of-the-art weapons—air defense and radar systems, for example, or reconnaissance drones,” stated the chancellor. The last package of arms supplies alone had a value of over €600 million. “Our goal is a modern Ukrainian armed forces that can permanently defend their country,” he declared. He could imagine that “Germany would take special responsibility for building Ukrainian artillery and air defense.”

Federal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock (Greens) promised Ukraine on Sunday that she would continue to indefinitely support Ukraine with heavy weaponry. One must “expect that this war could last for years to come,” she told the Bild am Sonntag. Like Scholz, Baerbock explicitly declared her support for the goal of recapturing the Crimean peninsula by military force and thereby inflict a total military defeat on Russia, a nuclear-armed power.

The German government already supported the right-wing coup in Ukraine in 2014, which brought a pro-Western puppet regime to power and sowed the seeds for the current war. But it hesitated for a long time to completely break off economic relations with Russia, which had been supplying Germany with cheap and secure energy since Soviet times.

Despite significant pressure, Chancellor Angela Merkel refused throughout her time in office to stop the construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, which would have doubled the capacity of the existing pipeline. The Scholz government only took this step after the outbreak of the war. Even then, his government came under sustained fire for allegedly acting too hesitantly and delaying promised arms deliveries.

Vladimir Putin’s chief spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, expressed concerns that relations might deteriorate in comments to reporters shortly before Truss was announced as the winner of the Tory leadership race.

“I wouldn’t like to say that things can change for the worse, because it’s hard to imagine anything worse,” Peskov said when asked if Moscow expected any shift in relations with Britain. “But unfortunately, this cannot be ruled out.”

Reacting to Truss’s victory in typically bombastic style, one host on Russian state TV declared: “Stupidity has triumphed: Liz Truss has become the new prime minister … If Boris Johnson achieved Brexit, she wants to achieve something entirely different – the end of the world.”
