Russian propagandist Solovyev:

"Putin gave us back our Motherland."

In reality, under Putin's regime:

◾️Russia started the bloodiest war on the European continent since WWII;
◾️Russia has been kicked out of G8;
◾️Putin is under a search warrant from the ICC for war crimes;
◾️Russia is allies with Iran, Taliban and North Korea;
◾️NATO's border with Russia grew twice as large;
◾️Russia is losing/lost its influence in the post-Soviet space;
◾️Russian economy is officially in stagnation; all of Russia's oil and gas earnings are spent on war;
◾️Europe is committed to no longer buy Russian oil and gas;
◾️Russia has huge demographic issues;
◾️Countless Russian towns and the people in them exist in poverty and ruins;
◾️Russia is becoming a "satellite" of China;
◾️The Russian army has suffered huge losses and is no longer regarded as the "second army in the world";
◾️A part of the Black Sea Fleet has been destroyed; the rest is shut down in Novorossiysk;
◾️A large number of Russian regions experience gas shortages.

It is due to Putin's actions that propagandist Solovyev lost his Italian villa. Has he forgotten about that?

These people still think that the motherland consists of land and not the people on it.

A country with so much territory it can't properly manage it wants more and more and more even if it means killing and maiming millions.

What a sick society

From 7,342 to 92—Satellite Analysis Shows Russia’s Depot Armor Is Nearly Spent

Russia’s once-vast tank reserves are running dry. According to new OSINT data analyzed from satellite imagery, only 92 tanks remain in decent condition on Russian storage bases—while thousands of others sit rusting, stripped for parts, or beyond repair after nearly three years of full-scale war against Ukraine.

Vlad Litnarovych  |  Oct 08, 2025  |  11:15

OSINT researcher Jompy has published an updated analysis of Russia’s armored reserves based on satellite imagery and inventory checks on October 7.

The picture is stark: most vehicles left in storage are in poor or irrecoverable condition, leaving only a few dozen tanks that could be called “decent.”


T-64s and T-72s in storage at the 349th Central Tank Reserve Base in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. (Photo: open source)

Jompy’s latest tabulation of vehicles sitting on Russian storage bases categorizes tanks by condition and repairability:

“decent” condition: 92 T-72B tanks;

“poor” condition: 1,606 tanks (the researcher says roughly 60% of these—older T-64, T-72 Ural/A and T-80UD types);

“worse” / ruined condition: 844 tanks—described as beyond practical repair;Repairable stock (slower to return to service) consists of 684 vehicles broken down as: T-55—17, T-62—501, T-72B—157.

Jompy notes that these counts reflect what remains on storage bases after large waves of reactivation, cannibalization for parts, and combat losses.

A broader tally of depot-to-front movement shows how heavily Russia has already drawn down its mothballed stocks.

According to Jompy’s analysis of prewar depot inventories versus what has been taken out for repair and deployment, Russia has recovered and returned to service 4,800 tanks out of an estimated 7,342 kept in storage before the war.

The most commonly reactivated models include T-80B/BV (about 1,411 restored), T-72B (1,191), and T-62 (1,012).

Modern models have been brought back in far smaller numbers: T-90 (112 of prewar stock), T-80U/UD (111 of 193), and T-72 Ural/A (681 of 1,142). The T-64 family also shows relatively few returns (110 of 752).  .  .  .

Most of the Russian-Chinese border north of the Amur River is just a couple of strands of barbwire. The Chinese side is a continuous stretch of farms; the Russian side is forest as far as the eye can see with no farms. Further east along the border, there are Russian-descent people that speak Mandarin on the Chinese side, and Chinese-descent people that speak Russian on Russian side - all as a result of the shifting border over the centuries.

But when it comes to thieving, its a toss up as to who is the biggest thief and the most conniving crook.

Kremlin snuffbox/Кремлевская табакерка, Oct 9 2025


Putin was asked to jail Lavrov for "treason." The Foreign Minister is upset and fears a missile will kill him

Colleagues are writing that Sergey Lavrov may be retiring and facing resignation [ https://t.me/russicaRU/65012 ]. They note that this could be the result of the sharp disagreements between the Foreign Ministry and the Kremlin over the American issue ( the gist of the conflict is outlined here [ https://t.me/dva_majors/80964 ]). However, resignation is likely the least likely outcome for Sergey Viktorovich.

Kirill Dmitriev, seeing Lavrov's stumble, decided to strengthen his own shaky position [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/6241 ]. He conveyed a message to Vladimir Putin: the Foreign Minister was an enemy and a traitor who should end his days in prison.

"Dmitriev sent a signal to Vladimir Vladimirovich: Lavrov committed treason and hindered the improvement of our relations with the Americans. He effectively turned against the Kremlin and must be punished. The minister must be immediately dismissed and jailed. The President has been given a 12-page document detailing these accusations," a source in the Presidential Administration told us.

He clarified that Putin had reviewed the allegations and instructed competent officials to investigate them. The results of the investigation are not yet available.

Meanwhile, Lavrov himself has been feeling depressed lately and living in constant fear. "Sergey Viktorovich has deteriorated significantly. He occasionally admits that he fears death from an enemy missile at home or right in the Foreign Ministry building. He devotes a lot of time to personal security, shelters, and so on. This emotional state led to the mistake that angered the Kremlin," a diplomatic source told us.

Kremlin snuffbox/Кремлевская табакерка, Oct 10 2025


Nabiullina is advised not to upset the President

Bank of Russia Chairperson Elvira Nabiullina stated yesterday that the Central Bank is thoroughly analyzing all economic trends and there is reason to believe that the possibility of further reducing the key rate remains.

In this way, Nabiullina tried to reduce the tension in her relations with the Presidential Administration.

"The Kremlin is insisting on an even further reduction in the key rate, at least to 14% [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/6166 ], or even lower. Nabiullina, meanwhile, is trying to maintain a balance between economic stability and maintaining good relations with the Presidential Administration," the source explained.

The Kremlin insists that lowering the key rate is currently in Nabiullina's interests and advises against "upsetting the
president."

Svitlana’s 7-year-old son, Makar, was killed by a Russian attack on Zaporizhzhia last night.

Their home was completely destroyed and is beyond repair.

"The house immediately caught fire, then collapsed. The children were in different rooms. We managed to get Makar out and took him to the hospital. But we couldn’t save him… Our precious boy... So positive... How can we even talk about him in the past tense?" Svitlana shared.

Makar's dad returned from Russian captivity this spring, after being held for three years. He is badly injured, doctors are fighting for his life.

My heart breaks for this family.

The photo shows an apartment building in Kyiv hit by a Russian Shahed drone last night. It captures the overall atmosphere in the city with painful accuracy.

A hellish night of Russian strikes...

We cherish every moment of life, because any moment, any day could be our last.
That's why we live a bit desperately.

We cherish every moment.

Are we afraid? Yes, because we have children. We fear for our children, for their childhood, for their future.

We know that our enemy leaves only scorched earth behind…

But we are not in despair. We have not given up. This morning, our children went to school, and we went to work.

Because we Ukrainians are very stubborn. We want to survive and to save our land, our families, and our country. That's why, no matter what, we keep moving forward.

May the force be with us.

❗️Russia canceled its first Russia-Arab summit because most of Arab leaders would not attend it.

The summit was supposed to take place on October 15, but a week earlier, it turned out that only acting president of Syria and Prime Minister of Iraq confirmed their participation.

Key regional players: UAE leader Mohamed bin Zayed, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, did not confirm their attendance.

The Kremlin says that it's due to the summit coinciding with the events around Gaza. Putin even said he decided to cancel the event himself.

The summit was first announced back in April, and Russia invited heads of 22 Arab states to attend. The slogan was "cooperation for peace, stability and security."

The Kremlin said it would be rescheduled for November.

Russian propagandists want Ukraine and Europe to pay reparations to Russia.

"And what reparations could Ukraine pay? Belgium will pay. France will pay. The Netherlands, too."

"Well, we’ll go after Belgium, France. We know perfectly well how this will end."

"We’ll pursue it at a military tribunal."

"Yes, in The Hague."

"In Donetsk."

Russian propagandists want Ukraine and Europe to pay reparations to Russia.

"And what reparations could Ukraine pay? Belgium will pay. France will pay. The Netherlands, too."

"Well, we’ll go after Belgium, France. We know perfectly well how this will end."

"We’ll pursue it at a military tribunal."

"Yes, in The Hague."

"In Donetsk."

Russia Cuts Soldier Sign-Up Bonuses by 75% in Four Regions Amid Recruitment Crisis

Ivan Khomenko  |  Oct 11, 2025  |  14:53

Russian regional authorities have significantly reduced one-time enlistment payments for citizens signing military contracts to fight in Ukraine. The cuts affect the republics of Tatarstan, Chuvashia, Mari El, and the border region of Belgorod.

According to Russian media Kommersant on October 11, the most dramatic drop occurred in Tatarstan, where the bonus was cut from 3.1 million rubles (approx. $31,000) to 800,000 rubles (approx. $8,000)—a nearly fourfold decrease.

In Chuvashia and Mari El, the new contract payment is also 800,000 rubles (approx. $8,000), down from 2.5 million ($25,000) and 3 million rubles ($30,000), respectively. Belgorod, which borders Ukraine and has seen regular shelling and drone attacks, reduced its enlistment bonus from 800,000 ($8,000) to just 500,000 rubles (approx. $5,000).

These changes mark a sharp reversal in the incentive-based recruitment strategy that had previously helped sustain Russia’s military campaign.

The cuts come despite massive financial outlays aimed at supporting the Russian armed forces. Both federal and regional authorities spent over 2 trillion rubles (approx. $20 billion) during the first half of 2025 on recruitment and military support.

Of this, around 400 billion rubles (approx. $4 billion) went toward enlistment bonuses, 865 billion ($8.65 billion) on ongoing salaries, and 765 billion rubles ($7.65 billion) were allocated as compensation to families of soldiers who were killed or injured.

Still, the strategy appears to be losing traction. According to Important Stories, only 37,900 new contracts were signed between April and June 2025—the lowest quarterly figure in two years. By comparison, 92,800 contracts were signed during the same period in 2024.

The data also shows a broader decline in financial participation. During the first half of 2025, 127,500 individuals received enlistment-related payments—down from 166,200 in the same period the previous year. Analysts suggest this trend points to the waning effectiveness of financial incentives in driving military recruitment as the war in Ukraine drags on.  .  .  .

❗️Russia canceled its first Russia-Arab summit because most of Arab leaders would not attend it.

The summit was supposed to take place on October 15, but a week earlier, it turned out that only acting president of Syria and Prime Minister of Iraq confirmed their participation.

Key regional players: UAE leader Mohamed bin Zayed, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, did not confirm their attendance.

The Kremlin says that it's due to the summit coinciding with the events around Gaza. Putin even said he decided to cancel the event himself.

The summit was first announced back in April, and Russia invited heads of 22 Arab states to attend. The slogan was "cooperation for peace, stability and security."

The Kremlin said it would be rescheduled for November.

The Ukrainian Review
@UkrReview

🇺🇦💔 In Ukraine, civilian casualties from Russian strikes have risen sharply in 2025, the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission reported.

The total number of casualties in the first nine months of the year increased by 31% compared to 2024.

Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the mission has documented at least 14,383 civilian deaths in Ukraine, including 738 children, and 37,541 injuries, including 2,318 children.

At least 214 civilians were killed and nearly 1,000 injured across Ukraine in September 2025. More than two-thirds of civilian casualties that month occurred near the front line, with the highest numbers recorded in the Donetsk and Kherson regions.

Explosions Reported Near Aircraft Plant Producing Kh-59 Missiles in Smolensk

Roman Pryhodko  |  October 12, 2025  |  10:19

In Smolensk, explosions were recorded at night in the area of the aircraft plant after an air raid alert was announced due to a drone threat.

The Astra media outlet reported on this.

According to the media, local residents reported explosions in the area of the airfield, where the Smolensk Aircraft Plant is also located.

In one of the videos recorded by a local resident, a trail can be seen resembling that left by surface-to-air missiles after launch. Meanwhile, OSINT expert Blinzka conducted a geolocation analysis of the video on their X (Twitter) page, which made it possible to determine the exact location of the cameraman – 54.81031, 32.05208 – and the direction of filming.

The analysis showed that the smoke was rising from the direction of the aircraft plant.

Meanwhile, a column of smoke rose over the airfield itself after the explosion, which may be connected to drone strikes on production facilities. It is worth noting that the Smolensk Aviation Plant has been placed on the sanctions lists of the European Union, Ukraine, and other countries around the world because it produces Kh-59 precision missiles and components for Kh-101 cruise missiles, which Russia uses to strike Ukraine.  .  .  .
