To understand the significance of the attack in the Bryansk region: the Slava plant is a storage facility for the strategic state reserve of fuel of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation
On its territory there are 48 reservoirs with a capacity of 5 and 2 thousand /1
cubic meters.
Earlier on Wednesday, it was already attacked by unknown UAVs, as a result of which 3 storage facilities for 15,000 tons of aviation kerosene were destroyed.
Judging by reports in Russian public pages, another 10-15 thousand tons of expensive fuel destined /2
🔥Not Kursk alone: Russian media report a drone attack on the Bryansk region

The drones fell and exploded 3 meters from the fuel tanks.

- Many have asked me why we don't hear about new attacks on #Crimea.
"The answer is simple, there is not much left to attack there".
The Russians have withdrawn their Black Sea Fleet and evacuated their air force.
How could this have happened, many are now asking themselves.
The answer is precision strikes against headquarters, airfields, ports and RADAR INSTALLATIONS.
In principle, Crimea is open to invasion, which probably would have happened if we had prioritized it.
We have enough partisans and resistance groups reporting the situation there daily.
2/ Our priority instead became Kursk, which is currently proving to be very valuable, especially when negotiations on an armistice begin.
There are NO peace negotiations going on at the moment, what is going on are discussions.
Discussions and negotiations are completely different things and should not be confused.
The weather is expected to drop to -17 degrees next week on the Eastern Front, which will benefit our people.
The Ryzka have problems with their winter equipment and will huddle together or sit still.
Our drone scouts will have an easy task finding the clumps due to the heat radiation.
3/ Last night 15 explosions were heard near Volgograd, Ryzka media is silent if so eagerly awaiting Ukrainian reports.
The attack on the facility outside Moscow on February 5th has proven possible because Ryzka radar installations were knocked out in a pre-attack.
This means that the back door to targets inside Moscow itself is now open.
Our F-16 pilots are gaining flight hours and practicing air combat by shooting down Ryzka drones, this is now happening on a full scale.
Also remember to take all reporting about the circus in Washington with a large pinch of salt, more and more it seems that it is with sense and will that one talks cross-purposes.
Also remember that the people in the leadership there are no pigeon chicks so they are guaranteed to know their game.
… Prosecutor Hagan Scotten wrote an epic resignation letter to Dep AG Emil Bove after refusing to dismiss the corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams:
“Any Asst US Attorney would know that our laws and traditions do not allow using the prosecutorial power to influence other citizens, much less elected officials, in this way.
If no lawyer within earshot of the president is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion.
But it was never going to be me. Please consider this my resignation.”
… Before Trump and MAGA start trashing Scotten as a radical left Marxist, I would point out that Scotten is a Republican, won two bronze stars in Iraq, and clerked for Supreme Court Justices Kavanaugh and Roberts.
… His resignation followed that of his co-counsel on the case Danielle Sassoon, who previously clerked for Justice Scalia.
2/ … MSNBC Barb McQuaid reported on what happened next this morning: “DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda.”
(Barb McQuaid)
3/ … Rep. Jamie Raskin: “To AG Bondi—Halt now the threatened firing of the excellent lawyers in the Public Integrity Section.
You have no right to fire public servants defending public integrity in order to override the decisions of US Attorney Sassoon and a Grand Jury to prosecute a politician for corruption.”
2/ Munich Security Conference in Germany and, I’m not kidding, no one clapped during his entire speech except maybe three people who were part of Vance’s team.
In fact, none of the crowd did much at all except stare in stunned silence at the complete ineptitude and audacity of the American vice president
Vance tried to get away with lecturing Europe about how they run their own democracies, as if American democracy under the Trump administration is any sort of model to aspire to.
Vance tried to tell Europe that they should just get over it if Russia interferes in their elections, even telling Romanians that their democracy wasn’t strong because they had the courage to reset their elections after a massive disinformation campaign from Russia
Vance even made a terrible attempt at a joke, stating that if the United States could survive years of scolding by youth climate activist Greta Thunberg, then Germany could survive a few months of scolding by Elon Musk.

… Pete Hegseth continued to embarrass himself and the US at the NATO Summit in Brussels today.
- After his comments yesterday detailing how the US was willing to give up every bit of negotiating leverage with Russia, he tried to walk some of it back while generally looking like a bumbling drunken fool completely out of his depth.
2/ … Hegseth opened his remarks to the group of 32 Secretaries of Defense by ridiculously claiming that the US doesn’t have the naval firepower to deal with Russia’s fleet.
He told his counterparts with NATO that it will take at least 7 years to rebuild our Navy before it can catch up to Russia.
Incompetent, absurd lies, playing right into Putin’s hands and destroying our credibility on the world stage.
… Hegseth then further beclowned himself with this gem: “Make no mistake, President Trump will not allow anyone to turn Uncle Sam into Uncle Sucker.”
3/ … Trump said Ukraine has to make some concessions to Russia since they volunteered themselves to be invaded:
“I think they have to make peace. That was not a good war to go into.”
…. But Trump said that Russia deserves to keep the conquered territory since they worked hard for it. He was asked if he could see a future where Ukraine returns to its pre-invasion borders:
“It certainly would seem to be unlikely. Russia took a lot of land and they fought for that land.”
Breaking: Trump's Disastrous Press Conference Goes Off The Rails
I just witnessed Trump double down on tariffs, blame Biden for his own failures, and cozy up to Russia—again
By: BEN MEISELAS and MEIDASTOUCH NETWORK

- I just watched Donald Trump’s latest press conference from the Oval Office, and folks, it was a disaster from start to finish.
2/ He was supposed to be announcing more tariffs—otherwise known as more taxes on working Americans—but instead, he went off the rails, contradicting himself, whining about the 2020 election (again) and the 2024 election, and lavishing praise on Vladimir Putin.
It was a spectacle of lies, economic ignorance, and pure delusion.
I’ll break it down quickly.
First,
- Trump actually admitted that his tariffs will raise prices for Americans—something he’s always denied in the past.
He tried to spin it as a short-term issue, but when pressed, he had no real answer.
- He even said, “Let’s see what happens. Nobody really knows.”
Well, we do know:
- it’s going to make things more expensive for working people, just like his last round of tariffs did
3/ "Then came the usual election lies".
Trump went on another deranged rant about how the 2020 election was “rigged” and then claimed the 2024 election was “too big to rig” despite the Democrats best efforts (This guy can’t even keep his conspiracies straight.)
He also bizarrely suggested that Mitch McConnell never actually had polio, questioning his medical history for no reason other than his own bitter grievances.
Look, I’m no McConnell fan, but that is disgusting.
