Savchenko Volodymyr
@SavchenkoReview

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Today, no person on earth will say that we are not fighting for Crimea and that we have forgotten about Crimea.

Russia brought its war to Ukraine first precisely to Crimea, and now, through our activity – medium-range sanctions against the Russian occupier, our plan of long-range sanctions and all other forms of pressure on the aggressor – we are doing everything to force Russia to end the war and restore justice.

Today, Ukraine deprives Russia of this bridgehead and puts an end to its efforts to normalize the war. And as we do so, we remember that justice for Ukraine means justice for the Crimean Tatar people.

Happy Qırımtatar Milliy Bayraq künü hayyrlı olsun!

Glory to Ukraine!

I called this out four years ago.  There's a huge difference between Biden announcing weapons shipments to Ukraine and actually sending those weapons.  All those drawdown funds that Biden continually announced for Ukraine were used for other purposes instead:



The Ukrainian Review
@UkrReview

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The Pentagon didn't use the $910 million allocated under Biden for arms production for Ukraine.

A new report by the inspector general overseeing aid to Ukraine has been released, revealing these and other figures as of March 31, 2026.

▪️What's this all about?

Under Biden, Congress allocated $33.5 billion for the USAI program—the procurement of weapons for production. The packages were announced and put into action—tenders, contracts, etc.

After the change of power in January 2025, the process slowed significantly. In mid-2025, tenders began to be processed more quickly, but the "expiration date" for almost all the allocated funds expired on October 1—the important factor here isn't the announcement of the packages (they were all announced in 2022-2024), but the actual ordering.

▪️The inspector also writes that $19.2 billion worth of weapons have already been delivered to Ukraine under the USAI program. That means another $13.3 billion is in production.

@visegrad24

Putin’s closest associate has died under unknown circumstances

The two were longtime friends from their Soviet KGB days. He was considered Putin’s main successor until his sudden removal from power in February 2026.

Former Russian Defense Minister and ex-head of the Presidential Administration Sergei Ivanov has died

This was reported by Kremlin media, which did not specify the cause of death.

Ivanov was one of the closest and most influential associates of Vladimir Putin since their time serving in the KGB. For a long time, he was considered one of the main potential successors to Putin.

His son, Alexander Ivanov (former top manager of VEB), died in 2014 in the UAE. In 2005, he was involved in a high-profile scandal when he fatally hit a 68-year-old pensioner at a pedestrian crossing in Moscow, but the criminal case against him was closed.

Russian milblogger Alexander Kharchenko believes Ukraine is preparing a major counteroffensive, possibly in the second half of July. He argues that recent strikes on Russian oil infrastructure are intended to deepen fuel shortages and disrupt frontline logistics ahead of a push towards the Zaporizhzhia axis.

Kharchenko then enthusiastically indulges in his own military fan fiction, repeatedly musing: "If I were making decisions for the enemy...", "I would begin the offensive..." before outlining where he would strike first, including Bryansk Oblast, to stretch Russian reserves. The imagination is certainly there.

Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandr Novak claimed on TV that the recent 20–30% "artificial" increase in fuel demand across the country was caused by "panic buying".

He added that "the logistics system is currently being restructured [by AFU] to meet demand" and "there is enough fuel on the market".

Notably, he made no mention of Ukraine's ongoing strikes on Russia's oil and fuel infrastructure.

JSC "FNVTS "Titan-Barikady"" is one of the key factories of the Russian military-industrial complex in Volgograd. The enterprise produces launchers, artillery systems, and components for missile systems, including the "Iskander-M", "Yars", and "Topol-M". Since 2022, it has been subject to international sanctions due to the production of weapons for the Russian army.

The recent developments regarding Belarus are noteworthy. First, Lukashenko publicly apologized to Ukraine and President Zelenskyy for Belarus‘ role in Russia’s war of aggression. Then he turns off the repeaters which Russia has been using for drone attacks in Ukraine‘s north.

For the second time this month, the Security Service of Ukraine struck the Vtorovo oil pumping station in Russia's Vladimir region, which supplies fuel to Moscow.

The station is part of Transneft-Upper Volga and serves as a key logistics hub for pumping refined petroleum products to export ports and domestic consumers.

It is used to transport diesel fuel to the Moscow Ring Oil Products Pipeline, from where it is distributed to major oil depots around Moscow.

According to preliminary information, SSU drones struck the facility's technical buildings, triggering a detonation.

Centuries of repressive and authoritarian domination has rendered most of them incapable of independent thought or action. Unless they have someone to tell them what to do they do nothing.
Those who had thoughts that were not approved by their local zampolit likely spent the rest of their lives either staring down a gun barrel or in a gulag.
If the best of the best were not prominent enough and serving the State, they were removed.
If you bred cattle that way, they'd end up short, stringy, and sickly.

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. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

😅 The Mayor of Irkutsk promised to install portable toilets in gas station queues.

Previously, Irkutsk installed barriers to separate queues for gasoline and diesel fuel.

From now on, the only thing Russia's Slavyansk-on-Kuban oil refinery produces is smoke.

The Kremlin is preparing a new mobilization after the elections

According to Ukraine Context, Moscow is expected to delay any new wave of mobilization until after the State Duma elections, avoiding anything that could spoil its carefully crafted image of "stability."

But what kind of stability is that if even the Kremlin-backed pollster VTsIOM suddenly has to report a surge in public trust while Russia is grappling with a fuel crisis?

According to VTsIOM, Putin's approval rating jumped to 70.4% between June 15 and 21, while Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin's rose to 48.5% and the government's to 45.9%.

All this comes as Russians complain about fuel shortages and demand that the authorities finally do something.
