The Ukrainian military can’t help but include neo-Nazi symbols in its ads…

Be it intentional or out of ignorance - the fact is still alarming, as not only the #Azov nationalistic battalion has certain “image problems”.

A clip on where the “Black Sun” came from, and why the white supremacists, neo-Nazis and even satanists are quite fond of it.

🇺🇦STCU is headquartered in Kiev and has regional offices in Baku, Chisinau and Tbilisi, as well as in Kharkov and Lvov.

▫️However, the Russian Ministry of Defence's Chemical and Biological Threat Expertise Centre found that the STCU's main activity is to act as a distribution centre for grants for research of interest to the Pentagon, including biological weapons research.

▫️In recent years alone, Washington has spent more than $350 million on STCU projects.

▫️The U.S. customers and sponsors of STCU are the Department of State and the Department of Defense. Funding is also provided through the Environmental Protection Agency, the US Departments of Agriculture, Health and Energy.

❗️During the special operation in Ukraine, it was established that US scientists from a laboratory in Merefa (Kharkov Region) were testing potentially dangerous biological drugs on patients of the regional clinical psychiatric hospital No 3 in Kharkov between 2019 and 2021.

▫️Persons with mental disorders were selected for the experiments on the basis of their age, nationality and immune status. Special forms were used to record the results of 24-hour patient monitoring. The information was not entered into the hospital database and the staff of the medical institution signed a non-disclosure agreement.

▫️In January 2022, the laboratory in Merefa was shut down and all equipment and medication were moved to western Ukraine.

▫️There are a number of witnesses to these inhuman experiments, whose names we cannot disclose for the sake of their safety.

⚠️When Liberal Сabinet's foreign policy is submissive to the interests of 🇺🇸 and the Canada's Ukrainian lobby, one shouldn't be surprised to hear what it says about 🇷🇺 and shouldn't take it seriously.

📑Russian Defence Ministry has published new documentary evidence of atrocious crimes committed by Ukrainian nationalists during the Great Patriotic War as part of "Archives Remember Everything!" project

▫️The project's historical materials reveal numerous facts of atrocious crimes committed by Ukrainian nationalists against civilians, local Soviet authorities and the Red Army.

▫️Moreover, many documents make it clear that the Ukrainian nationalists of the 1940s, like their followers today, did not act independently, but were controlled externally - at the behest of Hitler, who used the Banderites to exterminate the unruly Soviet peoples.

▫️Many archive documents describing the atrocities committed by the German Nazis against Soviet citizens point to the involvement of Ukrainian nationalists in these crimes.

🇷🇺🇺🇦Briefing by Russian Defence Ministry

❗️On the morning of April 15, Russian Armed Forces prevented an attempt by the Kiev nationalist regime to hit Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station with a missile strike.

▫️This critical facility regulates the flow of the Dnepr River, supplies electricity to Kherson region, and supplies water to agricultural areas in southern Ukraine and northern Crimea.

▫️At about 7am Moscow time, a battalion of Ukraine's 19th Separate Missile Brigade struck the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station with two Tochka-U tactical missiles.

▫️The destruction of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station dam by the strike was intended to result in the uncontrolled release of Dnepr water and cause flooding of many Kherson region settlements along with people in order to constrain the actions of the Russian Armed Forces.

💥Both missiles were shot down in mid-air by Russian air defence.

▫️Shrapnel from one of them fell on Novaya Kakhovka, Kherson region. Kindergarten and residential buildings were damaged.

🏥A woman and a child were wounded and given first aid by Russian servicemen on the spot. They are currently being taken to a medical facility.

▫️The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue the special military operation in Ukraine.

▫️3 areas of Ukrainian 81st and 93rd separate mechanised brigades' units concentration in Barvenkovo, Kramatorsk and Lisichansk;

▫️2 areas of Ukrainian military equipment and weapons concentration in Povstanskoe, Odessa region, and Novoelizavetovka;

▫️missile and artillery weapons depots near Parutino and Nikolaev;

▫️nationalist strong points in Yasenovoe and Sribnoe.

💥Missile troops and artillery struck 217 military facilities in Ukraine, including 15 command posts of Ukrainian military units, as well as 201 strong points and areas of enemy's manpower concentration.

✈️💥Operational-tactical aviation hit 6 military assets of Ukraine during the day. Among them: 1 artillery battery, 2 multiple rocket launchers, 2 missile and artillery ammunition depots and 3 areas of concentration of Ukrainian weapons and military equipment.

❗️According to reliable information, the Kiev regime is preparing another monstrous provocation, similar to the one in Kramatorsk, to accuse Russian servicemen of so-called war crimes with massacres of civilians.

▫️To this end, battalion of the 19th Separate Missile Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will soon launch a Tochka-U attack on an area of refugees concentration at the railway station in Lozovaya.

▫️The missiles will be launched from Staromikhailovka direction to simulate a strike from the territory allegedly controlled by the Russian Armed Forces and Donetsk People's Republic formations.

▫️Such actions by Ukrainian authorities once again demonstrate an inhuman attitude towards the fate of its own citizens and show a complete disregard for all norms of morality and international humanitarian law.

❗️We stress in particular that Tochka-U tactical missiles are only used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

▫️Taking the above into account, we warn the countries of the so-called "civilised West" led by the US in advance that the Russian Federation has an evidence base of another terrible crime being prepared by the Kiev regime.

🎙 Russia's Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s interview with RT

❗️Russia has made public the facts that have come to light to date at the UN and other international organisations and called on the US authorities to provide detailed explanations, but, predictably, Washington does not appear to be ready to share with the public any meaningful information on its military biological programme in Ukraine.

📃 According to confirmed reports, Germany closely coordinated its work on biological security with its US allies, who established a network of at least 30 biological laboratories in Ukraine.

☝️ We urge German officials to immediately stop spreading false allegations about our country’s intentions to use weapons banned by international law. We believe that such statements can only serve to push neo-Nazi battalions to commit horrible provocations, and moral responsibility for their tragic consequences will be shared by Berlin.

The Red Army’s Berlin offensive operation began 7️⃣7️⃣ years ago, on April 16, 1945. It resulted in the Soviet forces completely rooting out the Nazis, which led to the long-awaited Victory in the Great Patriotic War.

🕯 The Berlin offensive operation lasted from April 16 through May 8, 1945, with Soviet forces capturing about 480,000 enemy officers and soldiers, as well as 1,550 tanks, 8,600 artillery systems and 4,150 aircraft. The Red Army lost 274,184 officers and soldiers, including 78,292 killed and missing in action.

🎖 187 military units and elements received the honorary names Berlin for their soldiers’ bravery, heroism and impressive military professionalism displayed during the operation. On June 9, 1945, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR issued a decree instituting the Medal for the Capture of Berlin. About 1,082,000 Soviet soldiers received this decoration.

#Opinion by Maria Zakharova

Medvedchuk’s spouse Oksana Marchenko appealed to the British government and people: “I appeal to the relatives and friends of Aiden Eslin and Sean Pinner: Angela Eslin, Nathan and Shannon Wood, Derby and Evan Pinner. It's in your power to ask the Prime Minister of your country, Boris Johnson, to influence the Ukrainian leadership and achieve the release of Aiden and Sean by exchanging them for the Ukrainian opposition politician detained by the Kiev authorities, my husband Viktor Medvedchuk.”

💬 Maria Zakharova: UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who recently went to Kiev, must be aware of the developments with Her Majesty’s subjects. He is sure to reply, isn’t he?

Meanwhile, Liz Truss might take the opportunity to reveal what exactly the British nationals were doing there [in Mariupol, with Neo-Nazis] anyway.
