RUSSIA WARNS GREECE NOT TO SEND S-300 MISSILES TO UKRAINE

#Russia on Monday warned Greece that a potential delivery of Greece’s Russian-made #S300 #missile defense system to Ukraine would be considered “a very provocative move.”

The spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria #Zakharova said that the Russian armed forces will locate and destroy all military supplies sent to #Ukraine.

“We consider plans to supply the Kyiv regime with S-300s or other Russian/Soviet air defense systems that will be used against Russia very provocative.

“The Greek authorities recently underlined their readiness to supply Ukraine with the S-300 PMU1 missile defense system, on condition of receiving
#US #Patriot #missile defense systems to replace them.”

As of Tuesday, Greece has not officially confirmed the potential transfer of S-300s to Ukraine.

In June 2022, #Panagiotopoulos had ruled out the prospect of Greece transferring its S-300s to Ukraine, proclaiming that Greece faces “a real threat” and would not transfer “what we need, what is useful, and mainly operationally active.”

Charlie Chaplin’s Granddaughter Oona Chaplin, a popular actress herself, known for her parts in "Quantum of Solace", "Game of Thrones" and other blockbusters, said in an interview with the Independent:

"I’m so sick and tired of Russians being the bad guys."

In her recent work "Treason" for Netflix the actress is involved in the familiar trope of Russian baddies versus British goodies, which plays out with a more topical theme of political collusion and conspiracy at its heart. Chaplin isn’t exactly elated about this narrative. “I’m so sick and tired of Russians being the bad guys. I can’t even tell you,” she says. “It’s just like, can somebody come up with a better stereotype that we can roll with?” The Russian element was added as they went along, she explains, “maybe because of the given circumstances [alluding to the war in Ukraine]; maybe because it just raised the stakes... It’ll be great when the ideological war that we have with Russia is old news.”

Remember everyone laughed at Soviet car brand Moskvich being reborn, and taking over the Renault plant? Well it developed a fucking electric car in record time. This is the new Moskvich 3. How do you like this, Elon Musk?

Translated from Rybar:
Work of the strike copters near Donetsk

Soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion "Sparta" are engaged in bloody battles in the area of the village of Vodiane, north-west of Donetsk.

The footage shows a drone strike with a bomb carrying system. The operator detected the movement of a group of infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and began to drop ammunition from the copter on them.

Several grenades hit the target exactly. At least one Ukrainian fighter was killed, several were seriously injured. A huge role in the successful attack was played by a thermal imager installed on the drone.

Lavrov – about the timing of the end of the conflict in Ukraine: "We are not in a hurry. Our President said this.
Of course, we want to end this war as soon as possible, which the West was preparing so many years and as the result, unleashed against us through Ukraine. But the priority for us is the lives our soldiers, the lives of civilians who remain in the combat zone. We are patient people, and we will defend our compatriots our citizens and lands that have been Russian for centuries, based on these priorities."

"Musicians" ordered "Grad"(gale) and downpour,
This is Wagner - the sky is covered with smoke.
We perform to the symphony of the Valkyries,
Covered the enemy with a blanket of lead.

An interesting trajectory of an Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile.

Expect blaming Russians for the strikes on the residential areas...

"When a person does not know
to which port he is heading,
for him not a single wind will be fair, ” – Lucius Annaeus Seneca.

Apparently, this is the reason for the vague/non-specific goals of the Special Military Operation. If there are many goals of travel, then any wind will be fair. Wherever the journey ends, this will be its goal and victory. Of all the stated goals of the Operation, I like the last one, voiced by our President, the reunification of the Russian people.
