After the devastating Aug 9 strike on Saki airbase in #Crimea, the Kremlin finally dismissed the Commander of the Rus. Black Sea Fleet Gen. Igor Osipov, according to the Rus. media. After #Ukraine destroyed the flagship cruiser Moskva, he was disciplined but remained on the post
[2] The Osipov's replacement is a Vice Admiral Viktor Sokolov, 59. Former chief of Rus. Naval Academy in St. Pete. Remember how everyone laughed at the heavy smoking Russian air carrier / cruiser Admiral Kuznetsov in the Mideterranean? He led that group of ships to Syria.

[2] Today, Security Service of #Ukraine indicted the former deputy head of Intel. Dept of #Ukraine MoD (2008-2010) Gen. Major Viacheslav Onysko in state treason & armed assault on the law enforcement officer during his arrest in March 2022, right after the war began.
[3] The indictments says, that during his service as deputy head of Intel. Dept of #Ukraine MoD in 2008-2010, Gen. Onysko provided Russia with classified info about Ukrainian Armed Forces, incl. military intelligence & educational capabilities of the Land Forces Academy.

#Ukraine finally arrested the top ranked mole, long-time Russian FSB agent Oleg Kulinich (linked to sanctioned by the US Andrey Derkach). Since 2020, Kulinich was returned by Ukr top spy Ivan Bakanov to top ranks in @ServiceSsu & responsible for occupied #Crimea. Thread⬇️
[2] Arrest of the RU agent in @ServiceSsu top ranks is sensational. It puts its chief Ivan #Bakanov into a spotlight for appointing Kulinich. In June, @ZelenskyyUa wanted to dismiss Bakanov, but the leak in @Politico via Christopher Miller thwarted it. politico.com/news/2022/06/2…
[3] The arrested today Russian mole in top ranks of #Ukraine's @ServiceSsu Oleg Kulinich studied the spycraft in Moscow during the collapse of the Soviet Union: he enrolled in the Supreme KGB School (no open enrollment) which changed its name to FSB Academy.

1/2 #Ukraine's export of wheat increased from 9,200 tons in April to 43,500 tons in May. But it's still 20 times less that usual May amount of wheat export ➡️in comparison to 857,800 tons in May 2021.
1/3 #Ukraine's export of barley in May was still 2 times less than usual - only 11,600 tons. Data: Ukr. Ministry of Agriculture.

Today is a hundred days since #Ukraine, a 31-year-old sovereign country in eastern #Europe repels a brutal military invasion of totalitarian and revanchist Russia. #StandWithUkraine
A few reflections in the @Telegraph after 100 days of the Russian war against #Ukraine.
[3] In #Bulgaria's capital Sofia, a long blue strip was unfolded across the downtown square with a hundred yellow roses on it. This street performance is to commemorate 100 days of the brutal Russian war in #Ukraine. (Photos by Ukr. Embassy in Bulgaria) ImageImageImage

Three hours ago the #Ukrainian fighter jet MiG-29 shot down the advanced Russian fighter Su-35 ($85 mln) in the sky over the southern #Kherson province, #Ukraine. Source: Ukraine Air Force. The photo is illustrative. [Thread⬇️]
[2] "The MiG-29 apparently works better in high altitudes than heavier fighter jets like Su-30s. The MiG-29’s outstanding performance in harsh conditions, compared to the bulkier Sukhoi jets is no secret now." eurasiantimes.com/russian-su-30-…
[3] As #Ukraine Air Force added in the news flash, the destroyed Russian Su-35 patrolled the #Kherson province airspace hunting for the Ukrainian bombers. It wasn't lucky, obviously.
