Sonja van den Ende My Comments at RT on the liberation of Konstantinovka in the DPR, Donbass
President Vladimir Putin has said the capture of the heavily fortified Ukrainian stronghold opens the way to Kramatorsk and Slavyansk. Russian troops have captured Kiev’s longstanding stronghold of Konstantinovka in the Ukrainian-controlled part of Donbass. The Defense Ministry also showed Putin drone footage from over Konstantinovka, with commanders pointing out former Ukrainian strongpoints, industrial sites, residential districts, and areas where Russian flags had been raised after the city came under Moscow’s control.

Konstantinowka unter russischer Kontrolle: Was bedeutet das für den Donbass?

Moskau meldet die Befreiung von Konstantinowka in der Volksrepublik Donezk und spricht von einem wichtigen Schritt auf dem Weg zum Ballungsgebiet Kramatorsk-Slawjansk. Das russische Verteidigungsministerium berichtet von schweren ukrainischen Verlusten und bietet eine Feuerpause zur Übergabe gefallener Soldaten an, während Kiew den Verlust der Stadt weiter bestreitet. Über die militärische Bedeutung sprachen wir mit unserem Militärkorrespondenten Iwan Poljanskij; außerdem ordnete die unabhängige Journalistin Sonja van den Ende die Reaktionen westlicher Medien ein.

Funeral for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Tehran, I don't think the West is realizing how many delegates from many countries joined and how many people were on the street. The USA lost it's war, but the USA is a declining empire

"Belgorod medics are currently fighting for the life of a one-year-old girl. Two children and four adults were injured in a drone attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on a bus in the village of Tavrovo in the Belgorod region. The child received multiple shrapnel injuries, and doctors assess her condition as serious. Among the victims is a 10-year-old boy, who suffered a mine-explosion injury and an acute barotrauma."

NATO Secretary- General and former PM of the Netherlands Mark Rutte said NATO will produce American weapons in Europe, including Abrams tanks and ATACMS and Stinger missiles.He also stated that NATO countries will spend $40 billion over the next five years on drones and counter-drone systems.

Here we go again, an attack on Iran today. I think the whole world—and by that I mean the citizens of the world, the common people, like you and me, not the politicians—are sick and tired of this deadly game of attacks, peace, no peace, attacks. It is not the politicians, the rich or the military complex who are suffering, but the real people being killed in Iran, Lebanon, Gaza, Ukraine, and Russia. This madness must stop. Apparently, politicians have learned nothing from the First and Second World Wars. It is a disaster and a disgrace to humanity: politicians who talk about AI, but meanwhile murder as many civilians as they want. It is time for renewal, for a new politics, focused on the well being of the population—after all, that is why politicians are elected in the first place. Now it seems that they are sitting there for an agenda of war and lining their pockets with more and more money and try to roll out surveillance tools to suppress their population, a sad reality in 2026.

According to Trump, the ceasefire with Iran is no longer valid. The American president declared that he no longer sees any point in negotiations with Tehran. He calls the members of the Iranian government: "sick and violent people" and Mark (Rutte), known in the Netherlands as Pinocchio, sips his glass of water; they are terrible people, the Western politicians Mark and Daddy Trump are rude and terrible...

Once again, a Ukrainian drone attack on a passenger bus... which the Western media will not report on. Terrorizing civilians has no military objective or "gain" to be gained. This situation reminds me of Syria, where this also happened, not with drones back then, but with bombs. Iraq also saw an escalation of attacks on buses and civilians following the US war in 2003.
"A Ukrainian drone flew into a bus carrying people travelling from Krasnodar to Melitopol. There were eleven people on the bus: nine passengers and two drivers. Fortunately, everyone was able to get off unharmed. No one was injured." But it proves that Ukraine, with the complicity of NATO, now has civilians as a target to kill..

My latest article in Dutch, easily to be translated in any language:
De vulgariteit en domheid van politieke leiders leiden tot moordpartijen en oorlogen
https://freesuriyah.eu/2026/07/09/de-vulgariteit-en-domheid-van-politieke-leiders-leiden-tot-moordpartijen-en-oorlogen/

De afgelopen dagen vond er een NAVO-top plaats in Ankara, Turkije, waar Europa – of beter gezegd, voornamelijk West-Europese leiders – met angst en beven de komst van de ‘oranje’ man, de zakenman en huidige president van het tanende imperium van de Verenigde Staten, Donald Trump, afwachtte.

De leiders van de zogenaamde Westerse wereld, als je ze al leiders kunt noemen, zijn volledig doorgedraaid en leven in hun eigen bubbel van oorlog, geweld en wapens. Ze deinzen er niet voor terug, zoals Trump bijvoorbeeld, om andere leiders uit te schelden voor tuig en zieke mensen (Iran), of om presidenten te ontvoeren (Venezuela) omdat ze de olie willen hebben.

Bovendien – en dit is niet zichtbaar in de westerse media – is de Oekraïense bevolking (niet de leiding) de oorlog zat, die nu al bijna vijf jaar duurt. Terwijl Zelensky oproept tot vechten tot de laatste man en Europese leiders hun steun betuigen op een manier die bijna Hitler-achtig is, die steunde zoals de SS het regime door dik en dun; ze (Westerde politici) hebben nog geen eed afgelegd (misschien wel, wie zal het zeggen).

Zoals met name op X, video’s gedwongen rekrutering in Oekraïne laten zien, waarbij mannen met geweld van de straat worden geplukt om te vechten, besloot de lokale bevolking in Lviv (West-Oekraïne) dat de beste manier om de oorlogsinspanningen te steunen, was om een ​​voertuig van het Territoriaal Rekruterings- en Sociaal Ondersteuningscentrum te omsingelen, om te kantelen en een 20-jarige rekruut te bevrijden uit de klauwen van de geüniformeerde “boemannen”.
