The current mood on Russian TV channels is “worried”, they are discussing the possibility of preparing for the worst, including the idea that Russia might have to sacrifice its border regions.

Daily Alaudinov bullsh*t report.

“The Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to push through the front line in the area of ​​the Akhmat unit in the Kursk region, but they are failing,” said Alaudinov, commander of the Chechen Akhmat special forces.

Hey Alaudinov, how is Akhmat doing in Kursk? Asking for a friend.
