Russia and Ukraine Negotiations Were Conducted in Russian — Medinsky Medinsky showed a list of 339 children's names, provided by Ukraine The Russian Federation will consider every situation on the Ukrainian list of children who have lost contact with their parents, the head of the Russian delegation said. So the total list of all “kidnapped” children, who were evacuated from the war zone, is 33,9, and Russia will return them, since now the list is known. There is not a single kidnapped child, there are children saved by our soldiers - Medinsky "Children who found themselves in a situation between two fires were evacuated, but if there is a family, they are returned back" As soon as legal representatives are found, reunification of the child takes place immediately — Medinsky Recently, the Russian side has returned 101 children, and the Ukrainian side has returned about 20 children. So Ukraine is “kidnapping” children, too, then? |

Russia and Ukraine also agreed to exchange seriously ill and wounded "all for all". |

dvkot:I don't think he betrayed Russia. He had his own vision and approach to the conflict which is obviously different from the ministry of defense which was headed by Shoigu. He sought for a regime change in the military hierarchy. It's not new in Russian political cum military culture. |

Ukrainian Armed Forces must be limited in size, weapons, and capabilities; nationalist units must be dissolved. Russian language to gain official status and full rights guaranteed for Russian-speaking population. All sanctions between Russia and Ukraine to be lifted, with no new ones imposed. Family reunification and displaced persons issues must be resolved. Restrictions on the Ukrainian Orthodox Church must be lifted. |

⚡The United States is withdrawing military personnel and equipment from the Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport in southeastern Poland—formerly the main logistics hub for arming Ukraine—according to a statement from U.S. European and African Command. American forces had been operating out of the Jasionka airport since the start of the conflict in Ukraine, managing shipments of weapons and supplies into Ukraine. That role is now being handed over to Poland and NATO.

Appleyard:Exactly what I was saying, this is just a pr stunt, you don't risk men and materials just to score some cheap point that has no bearing on the trajectory of the war. If Ukraine had down those planes during active combat or hit forward operating base use to house the planes for combat it would have made history, this nothing short of terrorism. |

WritterNg:Seeing some Nigerian pro-russian throwing tantrums over the recent Ukrainian strike on Russia military bases reveal a broader, more troubling trend. I am profoundly concerned about the trajectory of Nigeria’s future. When a populace begins to recoil at every strategic adversity expecting perpetual success devoid of setbacks, it signals a dangerous erosion of national resilience. A nation’s fortitude is measured not by the absence of failure, but by its capacity to absorb, analyze, and adapt through adversity. Turning our attention to the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian conflict, a pattern emerges. On average, Ukraine has launched no more than four significant strategic strikes against the Russian Federation annually. Yet among these, the most recent act of sabotage stands out not only in precision but in its strategic impact. It exemplifies a broader trend. Ukraine, while the aggrieved sovereign actor, exhibits a strategic opportunism that mirrors Russia’s own, though, the moral legitimacy of sovereignty remains their primary point of divergence. Let me be clear. Tactically, on the conventional frontlines, the Russian Federation maintains the upper hand. However, in the domains of asymmetric warfare particularly sabotage, subversion, and intelligence infiltration Ukraine demonstrates overwhelming superiority. This advantage stems largely from a robust network of clandestine operatives embedded within Russian territory. Indeed, the ratio of Ukrainian sleeper agents operating inside Russia compared to the inverse is conservatively estimated to exceed 10:1 a strategic liability that is rooted in Russia’s failure to prepare its internal security architecture before the onset of hostilities. Unless urgent countermeasures are enacted, the frequency and sophistication of Ukrainian sabotage operations within Russian borders will only intensify. The Russian Federation must pivot toward an uncompromising internal security doctrine anchored on the following imperatives: 1. Comprehensive Border Surveillance: Immediate, round-the-clock surveillance of all territorial borders is essential, with particular emphasis on the Ukrainian and Belarusian frontiers, as well as those adjoining Kazakhstan, Georgia, Mongolia, and China. These vectors represent critical vulnerabilities. 2. Targeted Internal Monitoring: Russian nationals with recent Ukrainian origins particularly those naturalized post-conflict as well as individuals with familial or professional ties to Ukraine, must be subject to stringent monitoring protocols. The FSB must institute periodic, unannounced inspections and interrogative screenings to preempt infiltration. 3. Airspace Dominance: A permanent Level 1 no-fly zone must be imposed along the Ukrainian and Belarusian borders. Russia must reassert aerial supremacy as a precondition for safeguarding strategic installations. 4. Zero-Tolerance Counterterrorism Doctrine: Any individual, domestic or foreign found planning or executing acts of sabotage on Russian soil must face irreversible punitive measures. No extraditions, diplomatic negotiations, or prisoner exchanges should be entertained. National security must supersede all political diplomacy in such cases. 5. FSB Oversight of Central Asian Nationals: Nationals from Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Kyrgyzstan entering Russia must be subjected to rigorous biometric tracking and movement monitoring. While not inherently suspect, these demographic corridors are increasingly exploited for covert operations and logistical infiltration. Should these five countermeasures be executed without delay, the Russian Federation will significantly reduce its exposure to subversive threats emanating from Ukrainian operatives. Although Ukraine has landed a symbolic blow, its operational objectives were only partially achieved. Nonetheless, this incident should serve as a catalyst for Russian military planners to initiate the development of hardened, fortified installations particularly for high-value assets such as warplanes and missile systems. It remains perplexing why Russia has hesitated to relocate these assets from vulnerable zones like Sevastopol to deeper, more secure military bastions. Perhaps, at last, this wake-up call will galvanize a strategic recalibration. In summation, while Ukraine’s sabotage campaign reveals ingenuity and tactical finesse, the true strategic landscape remains far more complex than media narratives suggest. The loss of material equipment while visible and headline-grabbing is far less consequential than the attrition of trained personnel. For a military juggernaut like the Russian Federation, such setbacks, though embarrassing, are logistically recoverable. Equipment can and will be replenished. The war’s outcome will hinge not on symbolic strikes, but on sustained strategic depth, operational endurance, and adaptive counterintelligence. I'm back btw. |

OkpaNsukkaisBae:Prigozhin messed up. He was too temperamental. I knew he was done the moment he killed Russian soldiers and downed those helicopters and airplane. Considering his contributions to the war, Russia, or even any country for that matter, may forgive him for the rebellion but they will never forgive him for killing their soldiers and destroying prized military assets. Such unwarranted forgiveness will hurt military morale and will embolden other non-state actors to do something dumb. Prigozhin was a hero though. He wrote Wagner's name in gold. He and Wagner did the impossible. Their victory in the Battle of Bakhmut made them them first private military company to defeat a standing army in battle. And it wasn't just any army. It was a fully mechanized NATO-trained and equipped army. |

President Zelensky: "The Russian delegation, I was told, behaved a bit more calmly. But arrogance — well, it is what it is. We'll see. Maybe a few more measures are needed before they start acting like decent people." The last part makes me laugh. There are probably many more Trojan trucks inside Russia. |

India says its Navy will lead future attacks against Pakistan. Apparently, India is clearly disappointed in its air force. That is what you get when you fill your air force with junk western jets that are only superior on paper and against enemies without an air force or air defence system. This past month clearly proved that the Indian air force’s glory days of wiping Pakistan’s face in the mud is over. The fact that India started the air war and then went on to lose it even makes the whole thing worse. Hopefully, the Indian navy will deliver in future wars and clashes. Their primary land attack missile is the BrahMos, which is jointly developed by India and Russia. This is the weapon India is banking on in its future clashes with Pakistan. It should deliver.

⚡Artem Timofeev, 37, suspected of organizing drone strikes on Russian airbases, became a Russian citizen years ago, registered as a private entrepreneur in 2024, and bought four trucks later used in the June 1 attacks. His social media shows strong pro-Ukrainian views. A former DJ and Euromaidan supporter, Timofeev previously lived in Kyiv before moving to Russia after the war began. Despite clear pro-Ukrainian ties, he faced no scrutiny when acquiring citizenship, buying trucks, or renting warehouses. The trucks were loaded with drones used to strike targets like the Belaya airbase. He hired drivers from Chelyabinsk—now arrested—and reportedly fled Russia with his wife just before the attacks.
