A massive pillar of flame is rising over Russia’s Kirishi oil refinery outside of St. Petersburg tonight after a Ukrainian drone attack.

Auto-translated from Polish by Grok
‼️During the "Zapad" maneuvers, Russia and Belarus simulate an attack on Poland and Lithuania under the guise of defending Kaliningrad

On September 12, the "Zapad–2025" maneuvers began, after which Poland closed its border with Belarus🚧

The scenario assumes an attack on the Suwałki Corridor. The Kremlin presents it as a "defense" of Kaliningrad, which NATO allegedly wants to seize.

In practice, this means an offensive from Belarus and a march through 🇵🇱 and 🇱🇹 to establish a land connection with Kaliningrad. Russia pretends to be defending while actually training for an attack on NATO.

CEO of Russian Fertilizer Firm Found Decapitated Near Kaliningrad

Sep. 9, 2025

Police investigators in Russia’s Kaliningrad region on Monday discovered the decapitated body of the CEO of a local fertilizer company.

The chief executive, Alexei Sinitsyn, is believed to have died by suicide, according to a law enforcement source cited by the Vedomosti business newspaper.

Investigators told state news agencies that Sinitsyn’s body was found with an attached towing cable under a bridge outside the city of Kaliningrad. They said they were establishing the circumstances of his death.

Sinitsyn, 43, was the CEO of K-Potash Service, which has been developing the Nivensky-1 potassium-magnesium deposit in Kaliningrad since 2014.  .  .  .

Anyone have an explanation why attacking Poland makes any sense?

It would light a fire that will be full scale war in Europe. Russia cannot win it.

Why?

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.

To trigger an overt NATO response that crosses over into Russian/Belarus territory so that Putin can claim that NATO is attacking Russia to rally the populace around him and his continued war on Ukraine. Most likely it indicates that he is at serious risk of losing internal support and rivals are beginning to come out of the woodwork.

In the meantime, Putin is using it to (quite effectively) show that NATO is all-talk and no-action ...

People are only part of Putin's problem. He doesn't have the industrial/economic power to sufficiently arm them.

What action would you advise?  What NATO should be doing is arming Ukraine to the teeth with everything it needs.  In the meantime, until Russia actually causes serious damage on the territory of a NATO member, its attempts to provoke a response should be ignored.


What Putin wants is a NATO - preferably U.S. led - incursion into Belarus or Russia.  That will allow him to galvanize all of Russian society and industry to “the Cause” and will get allies like NK, India, Iran, and even China, feeding him war materiel. 


The drones that entered Polish airspace were apparently duds.  Which clearly indicates that he is trying to provoke a response from NATO, not actually attempting to attack a NATO member.

Well almost everything it needs ... except the things it really needs like more Patriot systems and Taurus missiles, while being allowed to use ATACMS to go their full range; the last would require 47 to want Ukraine to defeat Russia - which, from his recent comment above, he does not - he seems firmly in Putin's camp - he's just a bit disappointed Dear Vlad is not more amenable to stopping his war.

Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, September 13, 2025


Excerpted headlines:

Russian forces recently attempted to advance behind Ukrainian positions in Kupyansk via an underground gas pipeline - the third time Russian forces have used this tactic so far in the war ...

Russian forces previously leveraged underground pipelines to advance behind Ukrainian defensive positions in Avdiivka, Donetsk Oblast in January 2024 and in Sudzha, Kursk Oblast in March 2025 ...

The international community continues to condemn the recent Russian drone incursion into Poland's airspace ...

Russian and Belarusian officials continue to deflect responsibility for Russia's recent drone incursion into Polish airspace ...

Additional information about the Russian drone incursion undermines Nebenzya's and Tozik’s statements, however ...

Looks like Ukraine's hits on Refineries will come to a abrupt end ... :tongue2:

Kremlin snuffbox/Кремлевская табакерка, Sept 11 2025

Special crosses and icons will be sent to protect several important oil refineries

According to our source in the Ministry of Defense, several oil refineries and other important facilities decided to protect themselves with crosses and icons, which were carried during a recent large-scale religious procession in Moscow.

"The religious procession, in particular, was dedicated to the protection of our oil refineries from enemy attacks [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/6146 ]. We will send the 7 crosses and icons that were on this religious procession to various important sites. May God protect us where people are sometimes powerless," the channel's interlocutor said.

He added that before being sent to the oil refinery, our drones, which successfully crossed the Polish border, were also blessed with these special icons and crosses [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/6158 ].

"A lot in Russia now depends on the operation and safety of the refineries. Therefore, additional protection with the help of such important, sacred objects will definitely not hurt them," said another source in the Ministry of Defense.

To what specific objects the icons and crosses will be sent is secret information that the enemy must not know under any circumstances!

Russian forces have run out of infantry in certain sectors, and even communications specialists and cooks are sometimes being sent into assaults, according to the Main Directorate of Intelligence of Ukraine’s Defense Ministry.

The agency says Russian losses are especially high on the Hulyaipole axis. Russian commanders have ordered attacks by the wounded and the sick, alongside communications troops, cooks, drivers and drone operators - effectively anyone available - according to what Ukrainian intelligence says it learned from radio intercepts.

Ukraine’s General Staff reports that from February 24, 2022, through September 12, 2025, Russia has lost more than 1 million personnel killed and wounded in Ukraine. Over the same period, Ukrainian forces say they have disabled, destroyed or burned more than 11,000 tanks, over 23,000 armored fighting vehicles and more than 32,000 artillery systems, and shot down 422 aircraft and 341 helicopters; they also say they have sunk 28 ships and boats.

Turkey should sell them back at triple the price.  They don't work anyway.  Ukraine has made mincemeat out of them.  I'm just surprised that Russia would sell it's hardware to a NATO country in the first place.

While officially Turkey is a member of NATO, I believe Turkey was wooed away to form an alliance with Russia.  If you will recall, there were mumblings of what it would take to boot Turkey out of NATO.  If I recall correctly, Turkey shutdown the US military base we were using.

I would not trust Turkey or any muslim state, not now, not ever!

Stockholm announced an additional 26.6 billion kronor for defense in 2026 following the deliberate violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones.

Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson called this a "serious escalation" and stated that the funds will go toward air defense, rocket artillery, the navy, and equipment.

He also emphasized that the war in Ukraine remains a key factor in Europe’s security.
